STRAND

The great dramatic hit "They Knew What They Wanted" opened its four-day engagement today at the popular Warner Bros, Strand theater with capacity attendance marking all performances.
 Co-starring Carole Lombard and Charles Laughton, the film is an adaptation of the Pulitzer prize win ming play and is truly picture that should be seen by everyone.
 1t is a poignant romatic screen drama of the California grapelands. The story told in fortnight fashion, marches with it's wildly human char actors from heart-warming begin ming to bitterly dramatic end. And it advances the art of screen story telling a significantly long way in doing so.
 The story of the film presents Laughton in his first sympathetic role in five years. He is seen as a lovable, eXcitable Latin vinyardist who loves his vast grapelands, and golden haired waitress whom he shyly wooS by correspondence. Miss Lombard is cast as the friendless, lonely hash-slinger who eagerly &C., cepts the rancher's marriage pro- posal, but can't resist the love call of his amorous foreman, played by William Gargan.
 The two stars turn in superlative performances in their respective roles: roles that are exceptionally sympathetic and ideally suited to them. Others in the cast include Harry Carey and Frank Fay.
 side-splitting laughs are in store for Strand audiences during the presentation of the co-feature Mex
