Best Comedy In Years On Strand Bill
 Without Reservations Registers Decided Hit
 With Local Patrons

One of the most delightful TO- mantle comedies of recent years. Mervyn Le Roy's Without Reser- vations" opened its local run yes terday at the Strand Theater. Clau- dette Colbert and John Wayne are starred in this RKO Radio release. and romp through the story with gay abandon.
 Miss Colbert plays a st-selling authoress On her way to Hollywood to see about filming her latest nov el. On the train she meets Wayne, Marine Flyer-Captain, and his friend, lieutenant, played by Don De Fore Wayne strikes her as an ideal hero for the picture. and she wires her producer that she is bringing him along, without, how ever, taking him into her confi- dence. At Chicago, she finds they have reservations on different trains, so rather than lose sight of Wayne. she abandons her train and, in spite of having no reservation 1OlnS the Marines.
 Then follow the most hilarious misadventures ever to befan three people including being kicked off the train, buying a secondhand car which breaks down repeatedly, love making under difficulties, being tossed into a New Mexico jail, lov- CTS quarrels, Miss Colbert's hectic life in Hollywood while hero Wayne sulks in San Diego, and finally, the happy ending.
 It is a speedy, frolicsome com edy, and yesterdays audience laughed unreStrainedly at the mer- " incidents. Miss Colbert, in a role after her own heart, gets every thing there is to get out of her sparkling lines. Wayne is right at home as the Marine Captain, and De Fore, as his friend, is respon- sible for much of the fun Anne Triola as lady who goes for serv- ice men on trains in a big way, Dona Drake as a Latin siren who makes Miss Colbert jealous. and Frank Puglia as her father. Louel- la Parsons and other noted Holly wood figures are seen in minor roles, playing themselves.
 Mervyn Le Roy produced and di- rected this Jesse L. Lasky-W Walter MacEwen presentation, and kept the fund-rolling at a smart clip throughout. For gay, light-hearted entertainment, Without Reserva- tions" is warmly recommended.
 The companion feature is "Bam- boo Blonde" starring Frances Lang ford.
