AT THE PICTURES

State Theatre: Now screening. Samuel Ocldwyn’s musical comedy “Up in Arms,” featuring the new comedy sensation, Danny Knye, with Dinah Shore, Dana Andrews, Constance Dowling and the Goldwyn Girls. The story, adorned with catchy new song numbers, deals with the adventures of a hypochondriac who. with his pal, is drafted into uniform and sent to the South Pacific, along with the pair's nurse girl friends. Danny’s mythical ailments and his frantic efforts to keep his girl out of trouble lead to much of the i ila nous action. Majestic: Robertson Hare and Alfred Drayton in the British comedy farce "Women Aren’t Angels,” and "The Irish Question” (March of Time). Few British pictures have had such an hilarious and en-tertainment-packed plot. .This happy film of Uie misadventures of two business partners who are members of the Home Guard has everything to provoke laughter. The two stars extract every ounce of fun from the very witty and rioutously amusing dialogue. Their gags, of a timely and original nature, wlil also keep audiences in fits of laughter, more partieulraly when the precious pair don A.T.S. uniforms' and proceed to the spot where the fifth columnists are "doing their stuff.''
