AMUSEMENTS

THE KEG EXT. “SAILOR’S LOOK.’’ This rollicking comedy, which opened a I the Recent last- evenin'.;, stars once again the popular pair, Sallv Ellers and dames Dunn, who add another (o (heir list of dual successes. The story tells of the love of a liree/.y sailor, dim, for the dainty Sally, ami the course of it runs hilariously rather than smoothly. dim finds, reason for doubting Sally, and knives with the Fleet. He later discovers his mistake, Rut, on reluming, finds it is not so easy to patch up the .broken romance. There are many exciting adventures and hilarious situations before the love affair is brought to a happy climax. All the performers seem to enter into the spirit of the story, and reveal a complete understanding of its humour. A generous contributor to the fun is Sammy Cohen, and with him are Frank Moran and Victor .Tory with a strong supporting cast. The supports are well in keeping. A magic earpot series, with its budget of in- | foresting items. A topical gazette and bright comedy go to make up a cheery I evening’s entertainment “for the whole family.” “Sailor’s Luck” will be repeated at the Kegent for two nights more and is a good tonic.

PLAZA THEATRE,

A LIGHT DRAMA

Light, interesting and entertaining, “Man Wanted” heads the current programme at the Plaza Theatre, having started a season last night. It is a well-told story of modern life, introducing a woman who works for her living while her husband spends his rime playing and seeking pleasure. The woman is the editor of a large magazine, and has her time fully occupied in directing its production, but by adopting a policy of laissez faire, husband and wife get on very Happily together. But rocks are ahead, and when the editor is faced with the loss of her secretary, she is fortunate in having a young salesman handy, who just steps into the vacant position. The editor is a woman of charm, and the new secretary soon contrives almost to forget that he is engaged to another young lady, and falls desperately in love with his employer. But husband and wife are still very fond of each other, and in desperation the young secretary decides that after all lie will marry his fiancee. Then the crash comes, and his employer finds that her husband is not so true to her as she thought, and arrangements are set in train for divorce, which subsebrings peace of mind to the young man, but certainly not to the girl he was to marry. Such is the brief outline of the plot, which is embellished by the excellent acting of Kay Francis, Una Merkel and David Manners. There is also a fine supporting east. The frst part of the programme includes a number of interesting “shorts.” There is a Olnesouml news reel, showing some excellent views of the Sydney Show, a, short mystery film, a travel picture ami a couple of more interesting films.
