Beady for tho cameras is Columbia’s “Eight Bells.” Universal has “The Mystery of Edwin Drood” and “A Notorious Gentleman.” RPKO has decided to treat killing as a. laughing matter with “Murder on a Honeymoon” (formerly “Mystery of the Pepper Tree”) and “Murder in Tin Pan Alley,” with Wheeler and Woolsey, Paramount is contributing its share to tho macabre gaiety beneath tho titles “Car 99,” “Rocky Mountain Mystery,” “Tho Glass Hey,” “Terror by Night,” and “Federal' Dick.” Metro, witli a merry laugh, offers “Shadow of Doubt,” “Vampires of Prague,” “Casino Murder Case,” and “Town Talk.”
