It happened at the old Polo Grounds while New York was playing Pitts- burgh in the last game of an exciting series. From the very start everything had been nip-and-tuck. But by the end of the eighth inning, even the most loyal Giant rooter freely conceded the game to Pittsburgh. Then, a funny thing happened. Two weak hitters got on base and Casey, mightiest of the dia- mond giants, strode to the home plate with a wicked cudgel. His eyes emitted sparks and the poor opposition pitcher prayed for rain. But nothing came and the umpire shouted, "Play ball!" His first horsehide crossed the plate, as did the second. Casey had two strikes on him and the mob implored him to knock the cover off the next ball. He set himself and took a mighty swing. Never had such a prodigious ef- fort been made, but the ball wasn't even near the willow. Pittsbugh gave a sigh of relief. The game was theirs. Casey won the "royal razzberry" and went to the locker room in a daze but the public never knew that Casey was exonerated because a trick ball was found to have been used by the smoky city pitcher! Don't believe a word of the above until you see "Casey at the Bat," Wal- lace Beery's screamingly funny comedy, arriving at Teatro del Lago, Monday and Tuesday. Paramount has given its new star a great story and a su- perb cast. Hector Turnbull, featured producer, wrote the story and super- vised filming. Ford Sterling, ZaSu Pitts and Sterling Holloway head Beery's supporting cast. Monte Brice directed. Saturday, May 28, "Wolves of the Air." Sunday, May 29, "See You i in Jail."
