"Speedy" will be shown on Tuesday, September 4, and "Partners in Crime" on Friday, September 7. "Take every member of your fam- ily," is the advice of one theater critic who comments on "Speedy." It is a Harold Lloyd picture, an ingenious and high-powered comedy. There are clever, rapidly moving gags, wild stunts, and tense action. Ann Christy in the leading feminine role is wistful and cunning, but has little chance to display her ability, because it is whol- ly Harold Lloyd's picture. Mr. Lloyd took a year to make it, and it was time well expended. Frankie Says, "All Aboard!" Happyland Is the Destination "The Garden of Eden," with Corinne Griffith, Louise Dresser, Charles Ray, and others, comes to the Norshore this Sunday for one week. It is a light and whimsical comedy drama, all very spirited and charmingly pre- sented. Toni Le Brun (Miss Griffith), a baker's niece, receives a musical di- ploma and leaves Vienna for Buda- pest, believing herself engaged to sing in grand opera.

And--lo and behold!--the wardrobe mistress turns out to be not JUST the wardrobe mistress, but a somebody of considerable more importance. Wallace Beery and Raymond Hat- ton, the starring comedians, provide new laughs and a few thrills in their underworld venture, "Partners in Crime." Beery is a detective who dis- covers much, mostly by accident, Hat- ton plays the double role of reporter and gang leader who are constantly mistaken for one another. She takes her charge to the Hotel Eden at Monte Carlo, where Mr. Ray en- ters their lives. And the rest the pic- ture will tell you. As a stage diversion next week the Norshore is offering Frankie Masters in "All Aboard." Frankie is going to be captain of the ship which will take his audience of Norshore patrons to happyland.
