“COCKEYED CAVALIERS.” Medieval merriment, mirthful melo dies, a bevy of beauties and a scream ingly funny story are salient production values of “Cockeyed Cavaliers,” the new screen attraction at the Civic Theatre. As a pair of nutty knights, Bert Wheeler and Robert Woolsey disport themselves more excruciatingly than ever before in this burlesque of the days of yore. “Cockeyed Ca liers” takes place during the colourful Middle Ages, a period invaded by Bert and Bob as two modern vaga bonds. Their comical antics take them to Cranbury Cross, a random locale ot Europe, where they undertake to save petite Dorothy Lee from forced marriage to a duke. Soon they encounter the duke’s niece, her husband the baron, and a wild board, and the gaiety progresses madly, merrily, and side splittingly. Without a doubt this R.K.0.-Radio Picture offers Wheelei and Woolsey one of their best vehicles. Screening to-night and Wed nesday. (Continued on Page 9).
