REGENT THEATRE
Laughing days are here again! Th® Marx Brothers—Groucho, Chico, and Harpo—will be seen to-day at the Regent Theatre, in “Go West,” one ol the funniest pictures in screen history. It is a scream from start to finish and laughs are too numerous and come too fast to be counted. There is more of a plot than usual in this Marx offering, nevertheless the merry antics of the comedy stars are more important than what happens in the story. Situations are new and novel, with the most hilarious scenes taking place in a railroad station where Groucho tries to fleece Chico and Harpo and is fleeced himself, a siam-bang scene in a stage coach as funny as their famed stateroom scene in “A Night at the Opera,” a side-spitting "wild party’ with three comely gins in an office, an Indian sequence and a wild windup on board a speeding train. Aline MacMalio and ZaSu Pitts help Marjorie Mai to look after a five-day-old baby in a hilarious comedy sequence in M-G-M’s comedy-romance “Tish,” the associate feature.
