The associate feature. Mark Hcllinger’a “Swell Guy,” stars Sonny Tufts, Ann Blyth and Ruth Warwick. The programme includes the new serial, "The Scarlet Horseman." King’s.—“ Now Orleans, starring Arturo Do Coddora and Dorothy Patrick heads the programme today. Regent.—Red Skelton in M.G.M.’s uproarious comedy hit, ‘‘Merton of the Movies,” commenced yesterday. Featured in the film are Virginia O’Brien, Gloria Grahame, Leon Amee, Alan Mowbray and Charles D. Brown.
