FIFTEEN ALLENTOWN MORNING CALL, SUNDAY. OCTOBER 18, 1936 ma and to keep secret the fact that he is so unerringly deadly with a pistol that for him to duel would be murder. The Theatres; work of the band of fearless men who brought order to the Lone Star State. Fred MacMurray and Jack Oakie, cast In leading roles, appear as outlaws who join the Rangers, taking part in the daily work of daring undertaken by America's first organization of state police officers. laws, lives again on the screen of the Midway, Allentown's newest theatre, where King Vidor's epic picture, "The Texas Rangers," will be the opening attraction Monday.

A story as dramatic and thrill -filled as its background is sweeping, "The Texas Rangers" outlines the lillli Rialto Lilling music, magnificent spectacles, rollicking comedy, romance and thrills combine to form the rare entertainment "Cain and Mabel." 20th Century-Fox has added another great triumph to its already impose uig roster of cinema successes. Flashing action on a far-flung scale combined with its production in the new perfected Technicolor, make "Ramona'' one of the most important pictures of the year, an exciting pictur-ization of Helen Hunt Jackson's immortal love story. Loretta Young is featured as Ramona, with Don Ameche as Ales-sandro, and the splendid supporting cast Includes such players as Kent Taylor, Pauline Frederick, Jane Dar-well, Katherine De Mille and John Carradine. In addition, hundreds of persons were recruited from the Mesa Grande district representing settlers and local characters.

A laugh-jammed, song-crammed scramboree of stars, songs and show-stoppers, "Sing, Baby, Sing" starts crowding the laughs in the opening scenes and only the sizzling songs and romantic love-making provide interlude from the side-splitting mirth. State The quixotic adventures of a young man who displayed true courage under trying tests in one of California's early gold towns, provide John Beal a rich part as co-star with Anne Shirley In the picture "Mliss," now showing at this theatre. Beal portrays a school teacher whose romance with an uncontrolled, spirited girl involves him in a welter of trouble at a time when trouble was settled with the gun. Although facing charges of cowardice, this dominie has the unusual courage to carry the stig- These ingredients, added to the fine performances of its two famous stars, Marion Davies and Clark Gable, and that of an exceptionally talented supporting cast, make this picture one of the outstanding screen productions of the year. fective because it is absolutely.

Indisputably true to life. 19thStree! Give a fine cast an outstanding story that's the formula for successful movies and that's the formula which has been followed in "I'd Give My Life." Adapted from "The Noose," famous stage success of ten years ago with the fight of an earnest, honest governor to rid his state of a plague of racketeers who control it, the story moves swiftly through the thrills of the revival of a 20-year-old scandal which is revived and held as a weapon over the head of the governor's wife. Then comes a smashing dramatic surprise. Earle The excellent performance given by Marian Nixon as Katherine Van Bu-ren, the dainty heorine of "The Drag Net," has resulted in handsome tributes being paid to her veratility and marked dramatic talent by the With LEE We Extend Embassy In the presentation of "Ramona," Lyric "Scantees" Is the name of the burlesque coming to the Lyric tomorrow and Tuesday with dally matinees.
