 Supporting the principals in thii joyous filmusical of army camp life are such well knowns as Robert Ben. chley, John Hubbard, Osa Massen, Frieda Inescourt, Quinn Williams, and Donald Mcbride.
 Against the framework of g strong romantic story, "Youll Never Get Rich" provides ample opportunity for entrancing dance routines. The co-stars, of course, are superbly seen, but brilliant background of eye-ravishing effect to the spectac- ular sequences.
 And for your further enjoyment the management presents a mighty cavalcade of breath-taking thunder ing action in the second big hit of the program, '"Texas" with William Holden, Claire Trevor, and Glenn Ford in starring leads and featuring a cast of thousands of others.

 Lots of fun, songs, romance in "week-End in Havana"
 Tropical magic, catchy Cuban rhythms, warm blooded senoritas, dark-eyed 'romeos, are neatly com. bined in the story of the "sing- sational" new 20th Century, Fox musical which opens Friday at the Loew Pon theater.
 With Alice Faye, Carmen Miranda, John Payne and Cesar Romero in the staring roles, the film is set in the capital city of our Latin American neighbor and shows Ha- vana with all its beauty in the naturalness of technicolor.
 Alice portrays @ New York sales girl who has carefully budgeted her. self for several years in order to treat herself to a vacation in Ha- vana. When her ship is caught on reef she refuses to sign @ release to the shipping company until she, has had--ard enjoyeri--her Havana vacation. The company's represen- tative, John Payne, postpones his wedding to make sure she has a grand time.
 Tn a magnificent Havana night club, the exotic Carmen Miranda, who has captured the admiration of American film audiences in her previous screen appearances with her unusual songs and dances, does spectacular new number with 200 feminine dancers-"The Mango"
 Mack Gordon and Harry Warren have written five new tunes for "Week-End in Havana" They are When Love I Love-" "The Man with the Lollypop Song," "A Week. End in Havana" Tropical Magic," and "The Mango" Romance and Rhumba" was written by Gordon and James V. Monaco.
 The featured cast of "Week End in Havana" includes Cobina Wight, Jr., Geoge Barbier, Sheldon Leon- ad, Leonid Kinskey, Chris-Pin Mar tin and Billy Gilbert.
 On the same program is the smash comedy Great Guns" star ring Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy. This is comedy about Uncle Sam's new army. Stan and Ollie conduct a blitz on the blues as two ''nit- witz" in khaki who are a pain in the sergeant's neck.
 Current at the Loew Pon theater is "Whistling in the Dark" with Red Skelton and Ann Rutherfod; also Paper Bullets" with Jack LaRue.

D. Crockett
Comes Alive
At Roadside
BY J. w. STEPP.

DaVey Crockett, ne OF the fabulous
frontier exploits when Americas in
fancy was experiencing growing
pains westward, has been resurrected
for Roadside patrons, and will con-
tinue to be so for the next, and final.
two weeks of the current theater in
Montgomery County. The particu-
lar vehicle is Frank Murdoch's melo-
dramatic "Davy Crockett" or (and
we quote) BE Sure You're Right,
Then Go Ahead" 1t is an event not
to be missed-cliche or no cliche.
Our young hero, as Mr.. Murooch
portrays him, is q sentimental soul
dashing, to be sure-but oh so ten
der toward the lady of his ardent,
If illiterate, heart. The problem as
the narrative opens proves to be that
which has cursed the earth since its
historical beginnings. Girl is pledged
to man whom she does not care a
whit to be pledged to. Further
more, circumstances surrounding
this unhappy betrothal in particu-
lar exude distinctly fishy aroma
generated, 1t becomes obvious from
the outset, by the activities of a
vicious, vicious man named Cramp-
ton. And how apt the name! Not
only does he stalk about with fea-
lures chronically cramped, he de-
cidedly cramps the style of the mis-
trothed gentlewoman and ultimately
that of Daring Davy.
Mr.. Murdoch's Davy also is dense.
While every one else in the place
knows that his childhood compan-
ion, upon her first re-entry into
the good lads life, must be the
woman of his destiny, David him.
self is altogether laggardly in per-
ceiving this fact. Wolves yapping
at the cabin door barred solely by
the manful Crockett right arm are
necessary for realization to dawn
fully on the simple lug. How, after
the awakening, Dave goes on to
battle the accursed Champion and
his raft of interesting and incrimi-
mating I. o. us remains for you,
dear, gentle reader. to relish in the
witnessing of it. It's all quite sub
tie, in direct sort of way.
The "Davy Crockett" cast is the
best that Roadside musters for mel
odrama. Dick Sykes hero's nero is
example No. /. Next in line is Ted
Tiller's excellently drawn Maj. Roy
ston, hamstrung guardian of Dawes
beloved. The latter role is the we'll
known putty in Miss Betty Gray's
hands; her every move has that
ballerina- pose about 1t that
makes for mellow "meller." Then
there's James McKechnie's scurr1-
GUS Champion; Jack Salamanca's
impeccable co-villain, though much
less villainous than usual in this
role; James Taylor's mirthsome par
son; and, of course, "the Others"
The entr'acte attraction is the
seasons most sensational. Reasons:
Bibi Osterwald at her best, Ted Til
Ter, de Teel Tiller, Messrs. McKech-
ME and Sykes, and lastly, only
Bird in Gilded Cage" The closing
(swing) chorus of the number has
no match.
In passing, tribute is due the en-
terprise and aplomb with which
the props corps meets its "Davy"
problems: How realistic the snow
punching down, the noisesome
wolves, the rigor- mortified squirrel
In fact, there may be some cause
for worry about the origin Of that
little rodent.
