SHIRLEY AT THE REGENT.

You’d never know the old farm now —it’s a streamlined Radio centre, with | Shirley Temple on a happiness hook-up . Tu the title role of “Rebecca of Sunny- - brook Farm,” her best-of-all musical. . The first star of the screen is supported by her starriest cast, sunniest songs, swingicst dances and a hey-hey load of laughter in this new musicomedy hit lwhich opens at the Regent to-day. iWhen radio appears down by the old mill stream it raises a bumper crop of song and fun, with Randolph Scott and I j Gloria Stuart united in glorious ro- 1 mance, Jack Haley and Slim Summer- j ville making merry, and tap-king Bill j i Robinson and Shirley at tap-speed. ! ; Phyllis Brooks, Helen Wcstley, The j Raymond Scott Quintet, Alan Dinehart j and J. Edward Bromberg also are fea- j t.ured, and when all is said and sung, I could you ask for anything more? |

To the roster of romancing stars, dancing stars, comedy stars and singing stars are added six sunny new song hits, in addition to a medley of Shir- ■ I ley's famous hits of the past which she, !sings again. The new songs are "An I Old Straw Hat," by Gordon and Revel; ( “Alone With You,” “Happy Ending,”, land “Crackly Grain Flakes,” by Pol-j [lack and Mitchell; “Come and Get; Your Happiness,” by Pokrass and ■ Ycllen; and “Toy Trumpet,” with] music by Raymond Scott and lyrics by j Pollack and Mitchell. The supporting programme is of unusual merit.
