AMUSEMENTS
REGENT A Mounting succession of tremendous tidal waves are the peak in Paramount's Technicolor production, "South of Samoa," with Dorothy Lamour in her most glowing role, which opens to-day at the Regent Theatre. All the dazzling colour of a South Sea Island is brought to life in this technical triumph, and the story circles about the romance of Dorothy and Robert Preston, who abandons ship on the island whero Dorothy was castaway ten years before. A trained chimpanzee helps to provide the comedy. TOWN HALL
. Reckless adventure in the rich fur country of the Canadian north-woods is offered in Universal's "Man From Montreal," which opened yesterday at the Town Hall Theatre. Richard Arlen is seen as the young trapper who is unjustly charged with fur thefts and murder. Andy Devine, his co-star, has the role of a good-natured Mountie who comes to Alien's aid. How a man of power rests the whole foundation of his life upon the faith and hope in his children, only to see his monument totter pitifully as each fails him, is deftly woven into a poignant new film,. "Three Sons," also at the Town Hall.
