“WHY SAILORS GO WRONG”
AT MAJESTIC SHORTLY With a background of a tropical island and all that it suggests, Sammy Cohen and Ted McXamara, the incomparable comedians, are coming to the Majestic Theatre in Fox Films' "'Why Sailors Go Wrong.” These boys are taken from a big city into the jungle and And them-
selves in dangerous situations, cont a i n i n g lions, canniba I chiefs ( and hula girls, i The cannibals are j the biggest and I most ferocious I men Sammy and I Ted had ever | imagined, and they J wear the most £ elaborate headdress and carry
enormous spears. But the girls are more intriguing-, two in particular, for whom the boys brave every danger against the cannibalistic odds. Through strategy and the blackbottom, they completely capture the entire isle. The savages .dance this dance until they are caught by the rhythm of it and thus prove they are advocates of modern jazz as well as the tomtom.
Cast in the featured romantic roles with Cohen and McNamara are Sally Phipps and Xiek Staart.
