MONDAY NIGHT.
JANE WITHERS IN CHECKERS.” There is wild excitement and cheers as Jane Withers rides down the home stretch in “Checkers,” her newest Twentieth Century-Fox picture, but what will thrill most of all is the grand human story. The uproarious fun, tRe aching thrills and the bright enchantment that come once in every young life will be unfolded on the screen of the Regent Theatre on Monday night, and the audience will share it all with Jane, so proud in those checkered racing silks. Jane recently was voted one of the six most popular stars of to-day and in this story of galloping hoofs and gallant hearts she’s at her very best. Stuart Erwin and Una Merkel play the lovebirds in a hilarious seven-year romance, and Marvin Stephens, the bad boy of “Borrowing Trouble,” is the first “crush” of Jane’s screen career.
Stuart, as the slickest horse-trader who ever got stung, keynotes his romantic life with the motto: “Love me, love my horse! ’ ’ but Una is a girl who refuse's to fill her hope chest with horse blankets. When, after tho never-say-die courtship, Stuart again pops the question, it’s not a pop—it’s an explosion!!
