AMUSEMENTS

Opera House Finally to-night: “Home in Wyomin" and “Eyes of the Underworld.” Next attraction (commences to-.mor« row Tuesday): “A Gentleman at Heart” and "Come on Danger.” Not since “Tall, Dark and Handsome” has the screen provided such satisfying entertainment as “A Gentleman at Heart” the sparkling romantic comedy commencing at the Opera House (Tuesday) with a top notch cast headed by that frolicsome trio, Cesar Romero, Carole Landis and Milton Berle. Imagine, if you can, handsome Romero as a racetrack “bookie” finding culture in an art gallery! Or, beautiful Miss Landis giving Romero lessons in the art—of love! Or, screwball Berle playing with ‘genius’ tor a hobby! All this, and romance too, are merrily told in “A Gentleman at Heart.” Texas Rangers ar e reputed never to have batted an eye when sent out from headquarters to bring dangerous killers to justice. But when a reputed killer is a girl, and young and very attractive, the average Ranger would doubtless have faced his duty with considei-able misgiving. That is the situation confronting Tim Holt, in his role of Jack Mason, youthful Texas Ranger, in “Come On, Danger,” commencing at the Opera House to-morrow (Tuesday).

Regent Theatre Finally To-night: “A Yank in the ,R A.F.”' starring Tyrone Power and Betty Grable. Commencing Tuesday: “We Were Dancing,” starring Norma Shearer and Melvyn Douglas. The brilliant comedy talents of Norma Shearer and Melvyn Douglias are brought to the fore in “We Were Dancing.” M.G.M.’s laugh-studded romance. The picture is based on Noel Coward’s stage play “To-night at 8.30.” Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer furnished the piece with attractive backgrounds and an excellent all star cast includes Gail Patrick, Lee Bowman, Marjorie Main, Reginald Owen, Alan Mowbray, Florence Bates and Heather Thatcher. The story presents two attractive young people of noble birth, penniless in America, dependent on their social charms for a living. Shearer is engaged to a rich lawyer, Lee Bowman, but throws him over when she meets Douglas. Society, however, welcomes them less as a couple than it did singly as companions for extra guests. They pretend to be unmarried and meet in secret. Then the trouble starts. It’s a story full of fun and laughter and a show to be seen.
