STRAND

James Cagney and Bette Davis in their first bowling hit "The Bride Game 0. o. D." arrived at Warmers Strand theater yesterday and according to capacity audiences who viewed the offering yesterday, the new comedy lives up t othe iIl- triguing promise of It's title and ex- citing star combination.
 Jimmy and Bette have pooled their considerable talents to make 1t hilarious entertainment. Cagney, who had some practice in his re- cent hit Strawberry Blonde" ap- breaches his comedy role with an effortless saviour faire that is said to be a Joy to behold. As for Miss Davis, playing her first light role in several years, she is said to prove that comedy is just as much her forte as drama.
 The story, adapted for the screen by Julius J. and Philip G. Epstein, twin scenarists responsible for some of the screens wittiest output has the supreme virtue of getting conn edy from legitimate situations, rath- CT than trumped-up ones.
 An unusually grand supporting cast lends able aid to the stars In bringing the picture to such high peak of perfection. Stuart Erwin, Eugene Palette, Jack Carson, George Tobias and Harry Daven- port are included.
 And for your further enjoyment the management presents The

STATE

Capacity attendance at Warmers State theater yesterday marked the opening of the screamlined comedy World Premiere" starring John Barrymore, Eugene Palette and Frances Farmer with @ support- ing cast including such stellar per- sonalities as Virginia Dale, Ricardo Cortez, Don Castle and Fritz Field, No three-ringed circus or free-for all ever boasted more action, thrills and comedy than takes place in this picture. The second big hit of the program Is "The Parson of Pan- amint" starring Charlie Ruggles, Ellen Drew and Philip Terry, Re- member, this show positively ends tomorrow evening so, hurry down and see 1t.
 Dorothy Lamour and John Hall, the stars of the memorable "The Hurricane" will be reunited on the screen at the State on Saturday in the breath taking technicolor pro- duction "Aloma of the South Seas"
 Comedy, thrills and melodrama crackle throughout the length of the picture which features an all- star supporting cast including Lynne Overman, Philip Reed, Kath- erine deMille, Fritz Leiber, Esther Dale and many other screen favor- ties.
 "Aloma of the South Seas" is said to be the motion picture top- per of them all and features among other exciting high spots, @ movie duplication of the historic disaster of Krakatoa; volcanic eruption that ravaged a tropical island in 1883. Thousands lost their lives in the quake and tidal wave that fol- lowed. Its reverberations were felt half around the world and the seas 1t stirred up rolled as far as the English channel.
 Such Is the setting which stars Dorothy Lamour and John Hall in what is perhaps the biggest all- technicolored South Seas spectacle ever filmed. According to critics Dorothy's experiences in "The Hur- ricane" and "Typhoon" are as tame as riding through Central Park compared to the dangers she's ex- posed to in her role as "Alona."
 And those who are fashioned can look forward to seeing new-Lannour's "pareau" a streamlined Tahitian sarong, more form fitting and colorful than its predecessor
 As the second big hit of thls program the management proudly presents a Warner Bros thriller titled Thieves Fall Out" featur- ing Eddie Albert, Joan Leslie, Jane Darwell and Alan Hale.

I'm just Q tire dold man trying to get some sleep"
 While he was starring in the Broadway hit. Woolley never dreamed that he would be hired for the Warmers film version. His cynicism was very nearly justified, too; the studio considered almost everybody In Hollywood before sneding for the original Man Who Came to Dinner.

 Since "Citizen Kane" has brought her prominence, Capra has been heard to speak highly of her, usual ly relnarking that she has been in Q number of his pictures. Told about 1t, the actress sent him a wire: "You mean, MT. Capra, that I was in one of your pictures Q num- Der of times"
