DOUBLE BILL TO-MORROW

COMEDY-MELODRAMA AND HUMOROUS PLAY.

To-morrow a double hill will be | presented of a standard which should j see crowded sessions during the Gis--1 borne season. “Their Big Moment” is | the story of a vaudeville magician and his two assistants who solve a murder mystery and bring the culprits to bay i by contracting the spirit world. Zasu ! Pitts and Slim Summerville are seen |as the magician’s assistants. The > magician is hired to perform a fake I spiritualistic seance at the borne of a i wealthy widow who is trying to comj municate with the spirit of her husI band, who was killed in an airplane crash. When the medium prepares to simulate a franco and repeat carefully rehearsed speeches, she goes into a veal trance, and thereby divulges ! that the airplane crash was not an I accident as had been supposed, but ! the result of a carefully planned and ! executed murder plot. Supporting the I two stars are Julie Haydon as the j widow and Ralph Morgan as a schemj ing physician. The second feature is a comedy de- ! nicting a- marriage mart where five , dollars entitles one to a husband or a I wife, with Stuart Erwin. Bert Helton. | Sheets Gallagher and Rochelle Hud- | son in the leading roles. A matrimon- ! ial bureau founded by Stuart- Erwin j is the scene of most of the hilarity ! ill “Bachelor Bait.” Romance flourisli|es from the very start and grows I into a national institution. Stuart is ! so wrapped up in uniting others that

' he permits love to pass him by. He | attempts to marry off the girl he loves to a millionaire, but a torrid I gold-digger upsets his plans, 'resulting iin some fast comedy interspersed I with real romance.
