Borrah Minevitch himsef is not with his Harmonica Rascals but the young ruffians, as usual, give a skillful combination of music, buffoonery and slapstick comedy. They manage to keep the audience in a laughable mood from the moment they make their entrance in pellmell fashion. Bill Bailey, whose high spot is his imitation of Bill Robinson tap dancing; Frank and Pete Trado, w-ho have an amusing dance in which one of the duo sits on the others shoulders and the Del Rios, who are actually graceful, even when holding a shapely young woman by one foot in the palm of one hand, are among the featured entertainers. Jack Holland and June Hart are of the better type of ballroom dancers, giving a superb exhibition of terpsichore; Ginger Harmon, who is about as attractive a jitterbug as this art has produced on the stage, and Fred Lightner with Ros-cella McQueen, whose act is terrifically funny, if a bit crude, complete the excellent and varied program. House of Seven Gables," by Nathaniel Hawthorne.

Adapted by Harold Greene. Directed by Joe May. Universal film. The cast: Jeffrey Pyncheon Georee Sanders Hepzibah Pyncheon Margaret Lindsay Clifford Pyncheon Vincent Price Matthew Holgrave Dick Foran Phoebe Pyncheon Nan Grey Philip Barton Cecil Kellaway Puller Alan Napier Gerald Pyncheon Gi'bert Emery Deacon Foster Miles Mander Judge Charles Trowbridge Of more than customary interest to local film patrons is The House of the Seven Gables made by Universal, with Margaret Lindsay taking chief honors. Miss Lindsay, whose work shows her a better actress than one would suspect from many of the roles handed to her by her late bosses, Warner Brothers, plays the embittered Hepzibah Pyncheon.

Miss Lindsay has many of the qualities of Bette Davis in her acting, and this portrayal is a dramatic triumph for the attractive young actress. She starts the story as a pretty girl of the early 19th century, happy in her approaching marriage, and concludes as a middle-aged woman who lives for vengeance on the man who has sent her fiance to jail. Handsome George Sanders, playing the part of the arch villain. Jeffrey Pyncheon, and Vincent Price, the stage star who left Broadway for Hollywood, give understanding and credible characterizations. The settings are as authentic as one could possibly hope for, and the Hawthorne mood of gloom and tragedy has been admirably instilled into the classic tale.

There are times when the action drags, but there are other moments when the pace is lively and moving, thus making the film uneven in quality, but worthwhile taken as a whole. Black Friday is a Universal horror picture with the two famous stars of terror films. Boris Karloff and Bela Lugosi, fighting it out as to which will cause the more chills to run up and down the spines of the patrons. Karloff transplants a gangsters brain into the brain of one of his friends, a professor of repute. Lugosi is a gangster chief.

Stanley Ridges, as the unhappy professor whose new brain causes him to do incredible things, gives a fine performance, alternating meekness with cruelty, kindness wilh toughness. Governor Asks Study of Contoocook Project CONCORD. N. March 21 Gov. Francis P.

Murphy today asked the New Hampshire Water Resources Board to study the Contoocook River flood diversion plan and to hold public hearings, that the Governor and Council may have information that will permit them to reply to a request of the Federal Government for state consent to the project. Army engineers have given tentative approval to the erection of dams in the Contoocook River at West Hopkinton and East Weare and a smaller dam in the Piscataquog River as part of flood control meas ures in New Hampshire. The proposed reservoirs will cost about $10, 0CK) ,000, and will mean the elimination of the villages of West Hopkinton and East Weare and the flooding of a small area in Dunbarton, but damage to property will be much less than would have occurred had the dam at Riverhill, at one time proposed, been built. Suggests Finns Go to Alaska SAN ANTONIO, March 21 (AP) Mayor Maury Maverick today telegraphed President Roosevelt and Ex-President Herbert Hoover the suggestion the United States invite and transport Finns from their Russian-occupied territory to Alaska. KEITH MEMORIAL Pinocchio" Millionaire Playboy Pinocchio, feature length cartoon by Walt Disney, adapted from Collodi's fantasy.

Music and lyrics by Leigh Harline, Ned Washington and Paul J. Smith. The voices of the characters are portrayed by Cliff Edwards as Jimify Cricket, Dickie Jones as Pinnocnio, Walter Catlett as J. Worthington Foulfel-lcw, Christian Rub as Gepetto and Evelyn Venable as The Blue Fairy. Pinocchio, long anticipated as a second Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, is a new type morality play.

Funny, tuneful, melodramatic, original and thrilling, nevertheless it teaches a lesson to the younger generation and is tops in entertainment for adult audiences. There is no doubt that Walt Disney has managed to produce another box office, artistic and popular success. If you dont believe it, look at the audience, which is the final test of any film. See the children, so agog with enthusiasm and excitement that their eyes are glowing and their little bodies tense with emotion. The adults try to look calm, but they, too, begin to sit forward in their seats with eyes glued on the screen as Pinocchio and Gepetto, his father, make their desperate attempt to escape from Monstro, the all-devouring whale.

It is such a very good picture that Jt is practically impossible to imagine anyone disliking it. It is Fairyland, it is Adventure, it is Fun. True, theres no romance, such as was found in Snow White. But the Blue Fairy is pretty and sweet and Jiminy Cricket blushes whenever the lovely lady speaks to him from her starry home. It took three years to mke Pinocchio, and this reviewer is here to report that the three years were not spent in vain.

You dont think of the careful toll and weary conferences that went into the production, however. It all seems spontaneous and as if it were happening right at the moment. Adapted from an Italian fairy story about a puppet who became a boy, and whose nose grew longer every time he told a lie. Pinocchio obviously needed the Disney touch to become an international juvenile classic. Mr.

Disney is the modern substitute for the Grimm Brothers and Hans Christian Andersen, as well as writer of morality plays. Jiminy Cricket not only shares starring honors with Pinocchio he steals the show. Cliff Edwards, who acts as Jiminy Crickets voice, aids considerably in giving charm and individuality to the cricket conscience, When the Blue Fairy grants life to Gepettos wooden puppet, Pinocchio, she says that only his future conduct will decide whether he can ever become a real boy. And as he has no conscience, the gay. happy little cricket named Jiminy offers to take over the task of showing the hero the right path to take.

But Jiminy doesnt reckon with J. Worthington Foulfellow and Gideon, his copycat. They manage to get poor pinocchio into a peck of trouble and finally bundle him off to Pleasure Island where he is well on the way to becoming a jackass, sold to work in the salt mines, when Jiminy shows up and saves him. But it is Pinocchios own courage and sacrifice which makes him into a real boy. As usual there are some melodious songs which every child on the street will be humming, roaring and whistling, whether you like it or not.

When You Wish Upon a Star will probably be the favorite, and Give a Little Whistle will undoubtedly be repeated until one is weary of it An Actors Life for Me is also amusing. And they are all placed in exactly the right spots, Cleo, a coquettish gold fish, and Figaro, the most amiable cat in cartoons, share the audiences devotion with the three leading characters. As for the technical end of the picture, which includes the delightful camera shGts, the amusing whimsy of the picture hopping to indicate how Jiminy Cricket sees things as he journeys toward them, and the sound of the many music boxes it wouldn't be a Disney cartoon unless it was perfect. Joe Penner enters into a series of hilarious escapades as the bashful hero of Millionaire Playboy. Tom Kennedy aids Joe in putting over the more laughable sequences of the farce.

Afraid of girls, Joe is sent by his father to a hotel filled with beautiful women, and there he learns to kiss and like it. The high spots of the picture include a scare from ghosts, a fearful trip with a sack containing what Joe fondly believes is the body of a guide murdered by one of his girl friends, and an outboard motor accident. Linda Hayes is the most attractive of the girls in the story and the audiences most uproarious laughter occurs when Joe hangs onto an outboard motor and is propelled through the water at top speed without any boat.

Bradley Cameraman Richard Keene Columnist Jack Native Shopkeeper Mitchell Kative Boy Inocencio Ninky Poo Gloria Franklin The Road to Singapore, an entertainment trail traveled by Bing Crosby, Bob Hope and Dorothy Lamour, is beset with obstacles including sarongs, bayous, moonlight croonings by Lamour and such. But the hurdles are taken easily by the inimitable Crosby, in his best style, and the fast flying Hope gags.

The whole business is lots of fun and nonsense and a certain cure for that Spring fever, since it requires no concentration. Relax and enjoy it and forget its improbabilities. Here teamed for the first time, Messrs. Hope and Crosby prove themselves a bang-up comedy team. Funniest scene finds them sarong-clad and caught in the midst of a native matrimonial dance, and the two of them confirmed bachelors.

But they wiggle their way out of it before they are tagged by native girls. Bing is the son of a shipping magnate, while Bob is a Brooklyn sailor. The two become pals and, vowing eternal bachelorhood, they turn their backs on civilization and head for the South Seas. There Dorothy Lamour somehow wanders into the scene where she keeps shack for the boys. But it's not all so easy since Bing's fiancee and father want him back home, and they come after him.

Well, he goes with them, leaving his heart in possession of Miss Lamour, who has chosen Bob because she feels Bing belongs at home. But in a rapid-fire climax, things are straightened out for the love-smitten boys who claimed they would never get caught Amusing situations, split-second gags from Hope and Crosby and the latters incomparable crooning, songs from the torchy Lamour and allround good fun make this entertaining film fare. Three young actors, Ellen Drew, Robert Paige and Judith Barrett do themselves proud in Women Without Names, the companion film. It is a melodrama featuring the conviction cf an innocent husband and wife as murderers. Except for several obvious and artificial plot tricks it is well performed and adequately directed.

MUSIC SYMPHONY HALL Boston Symphony Orchestra Serge Koussevitzky honored Howard Hanson, last November, by inviting the American composer to conduct his own Third Symphony at a pair of Boston Symphony concerts. This week Mr. Koussevitzky has doubled the distinction by repeating the work himself. The program begins with the Overture to Mozarts opera, The Marriage of Figaro, and includes the Beethoven Fourth Symphony. The afternoon concert was set ahead to Thursday, as is customary in Holy Week.

There will be no change in the date of the evening performances, which will begin Saturday at 8:15. When one first heard Hansons Third Symphony, during a radio broadcast, the dominant impression was of a powerful score permeated with the influences of the Finnish genius, Jean Sibelius. That impression was confirmed last November and again yesterday. So pronounced are these influences that one hastens to point out it is no matter of an isolated reminiscence or two, but frequent Sibelian devices. Not for a moment would one imply that Mr.

Hanson applied these devices consciously. Yet there they are, just as in the music of many past composers may be found the effects of strong creative personalities like Beethoven, Wagner. Brahms, Tchaikovsky, Richard Strauss and Debussy. Mr. Hansons way of using the woodwind instruments in chromatic thirds, of contrasting them with cellos and double-basses, certain combinations of harmony bespeak Sibelius.

So do his employment of brass and the upper strings, his fondness for sombre effects in low tones, and the prevalence of short melodic fragments worked into the fabric of the symphony. The kettledrum figure of the third movement has a strong affinity for that in the scherzo of the Sibelius minor Symphony. There is, of course, another side to Mr. Hansons work that reveals his American temperament and at the same time eludes precise description, although it is most observable in certain twists of melody. Apart from these considerations, one must acknowledge the monumental form, the mastery of counterpoint and orchestration and above all the absolute grandeur of the way the whole thing sounds.

Conductor and orchestra were not far from perfection the afternoon through. If Hanson had the benefit of virtuosity, so did Mozart and The Figaro Overture bubbled and sparkled, every detail exactly in place and not a technical flaw from the first rustle of the strings to the last, transparent chords. Mr. Koussevitzkys treatment of the Fourth Symphony which ought to be done a good deal oftener than it is. by the way may be called classical purity seasoned with individuality.

His proportioning of thft movements, the architectural logic with which they were unfolded was classical; the minute shadings of tempo, color, volume and rhythm must be attributed to the conductors own imagination. Compared to such a glowing recreation, the familiar dictum that the music should be played as the composer wrote it is pedantic nonsense. Of course the substance of great music lies in the notes, but all music must inevitably be colored by the minds of those who play it C. W. D.

All the old-fashioned charm, the mystery and the originality of treatment which characterized the book may be found ir the talkie: Alfred Hitchcock, Englands premier director, has combined with Laurence Olivier, Joan Fontaine and Judith Anderson in turning out a picture that ought to delight every person who has read the book and every person who meant to read it but put off the idea until now. Theres only one change and that was due to Mr. Hays, who refused to allow a murderer to be a hero. So Rebecca isnt shot by her husband but just given a push.

And when she falls and knocks her head against a heavy block he is afraid everyone will believe he killed her. This is the only weak spot in the plot, but as long as theres censorship in the guise of Will Hays, perfectly good motion picture plots will have to be whitewashed for the good of the general public. Laurence Olivier, who gave such a brilliant and understanding performance in Wuthering Heights, again proves his talent as Maxim de Winter. Joan Fontaine, hitherto an unknown quantiity in the cinema world, shows that she has the makings of a great actress indeed by her excellent and natural portrayal of the unsophisticated and shy Mrs. de Winter.

Judith Anderson, one of Americas best stage actresses, gives an outstanding and unforget-able performance as the grim, sinister Mrs. Danvers, housekeeper of the beautiful Manderley estate, George Sanders, as Jack Farrell, is so believable he might have stepped out cf the book, while Gladys Cooper and Nigel Bruce, as Giles and Beatrice Lacy, are quite as Daphne du Maurier described them her story. Magnificently mounted, directed with all the famous Hitchcock skill, and imaginative in its development of plot, Rebecca is a picture that ought to be a box office success from the very first day. The prologue is spoken by Miss Fontaine, as she reminisces of the glories of Manderley, and she delivers the epilogue. as well, declaring that she and Max are much happier now, even though Manderley has been destroyed.

With the disastrous fire that burned it to the ground go unhappy memories of Rebecca. Thev are free to love and live and laugh in a new land. Rebecca is of second importance only to Gone With the Wind as a widely read novel, ana the selection of players for the various roles has been a national interest. It would be difficult to imagine a finer and more intelligent casting, and there are niceties of acting that must surely have been inspired by the clever Mr. Hitchcock.

Mrs. De Winter, the second, was a simple, unpretentious girl, and never once does Joan Fontaine go beyond that. She even has wrinkles her tweed skirt, occasionally, and she dares to look plain and unadorned despite the grandeur of the background. As for Judith Anderson, she is a miracle of quiet menace. Even when she sets fire to Manderley and goes mad, she never rants or breaks into emotionalism.

Outside the Three-Mile Limit, associate film, is an action picture in which Jack Holt and Harry Carey, two old timers who are as popular now as when they started out their film careers, take the chief roles. The gambling ships off Los Angeles serve as the inspiration for the plot, and theres a Government search for a counterfeiting ring which results in murders, battles and mutinies. Harry Carev appears as a sea captain and Jack Holt is the heroic Conway who finishes every job he tackles. Eduardo Ciannelli. one of the screens most talented and sinister villains, is a gambling baron and is frightening enough for any hero.
