Tomorrow's double programme provides double thrills and excitement with “Mississippi Gambler,” starring Kent Taylor and Frances Langford, and “North to the Klondike,” Jack London’s story of adventure in the far north, starring Brod Crawford, Andy Devine, Lon Chaney, and Evelyn Ankers. In addition there will be a new chapter of “Don Winslow of the Navy.” King’s. —-A brilliant double-feature ' programme commences at the King’s to-day. Zano Grey’s most famous Western story, “Lone Star Ranger,” comes to the screen in all its colour and thrilling adventure. John Kimbrough and Sheila Ryan share acting honours. Then there is a return season of that grand comedy romance, “Second Fiddle,” which features Sonja Henie, whose skating is breath-taking. Tyrone Power has the romantic lead. Regent.—There are certain requirements -■ farts they are —that have always been associated with pictures of unusual merit. These are the most important: (1) A great cast; (2) an unusual story background; (3) a first-class production artist. In “Lady for a Night,” now showing at the Regent, these, plus many more points of distinction, are noticeable. The featurettes are "Song of the Clyde,” “Lure of Hollywood,” and the Regent news service.
