ROYAL, KINGSLAND
“WHY SAILORS GO WRONG” With a. background of a tropical island and all that it suggests, Sammy Cohen and Ted McNamara, the incomparable comedians, are coming to the Royal Theatre, Kingsland, this evening in "Why Sailors Go Wrong.” These boys are taken from a big city into the jungle and find themselves in dangerous situations, containing lions, cannibal chiefs and hula girls. The cannibals are the biggest and most ferocious men Sammy and Ted had ever imagined, and they wear the most elaborate liead-dresa and charry enormous spears. But the girls are more intriguing, two in particular, lor 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.
George Sidney is the leading actor in the big drama, “The Heart of a Nation,” the second feature.
