LUM AND ABNER FILM
is FEATURED AT ROYAL

Lum and Abner, for ten years top
flight radio stars, bring to the screen
the familiar surroundings of the Jot-
Rundown Store and Pine Ridge
which they have made famous on
the air. AS two kindly, old store
keepers they meet many dramatic
situations in keeping the people of
Pine Ridge progressive, happy and
prosperous. And it is probably the
outstanding attraction of the year
now current at the Royal Theatre.
Frances Langford, as the towns
postmistress in love with young
Doctor Robert Wilcox, provides a 70.
mantle angle in this sympathetic
story of small town life. Frank
Craven as the sacrificing, weary
small town physician and 'Bobs Wat
son as the typical small town boy
offer charm and realism.
Under the direction Of Harold
Young, Lum and Abner have been
brought to the screen as the same
lovable old characters known and
loved by millions of radio listeners.
Old Dominion State, a Technicolor
short, headlines the Royal Varieties
program.
