"AFRICA SCREAMS,"
HILARIOUS COMEDY,
TONIGHT AT CAPITOL
Turning light on the Dark Con
tinent has been a project for many
centuries of explorers, anthropolo
gists, archeologists and other high
minded individuals, as well as of
slave-traders, big game hunters and
diamond-seekers.
But it has remained for comedi- I
ans Bud Abbott and Lou Costello
to invade Africa for the first time,
for laugh purposes alone, in their
forthcoming United Artists release,
"Africa Screams,” which opens to
night for this weekend at the Capi
tol Theatre.
The picture is a “first” in two
additional particulars. It is Abbott
and Costello's first under the U. A.
banner, and also the first major!
production to hear the Nassour j
name on its main title. Edward j
Nassour served as producer. He and
his brother, William, are bo-owners ,
of the new studio named for them j
in the heart of Hollywood.
Appearing with Bud and Lou in
“Africa Screams” are such other top [
personalities as Clyde Beatty, famed I
lion tamer and circus star; Frank j
Buck, noted big game hunter; Max i
Baer, former world heavyweight
champion, and his brother. Buddy J
Baer; beautiful Hillary Brooke as -
the leading lady, and Joe Besser and I
Shemp Howard, comedians.
The picture is Bud’s and Lou’s \
24lh picture together as a comedy j
team.

WESTERN EPIC
OPENS SATURDAY
AT 20TH CENTURY
A picture of sucli vast proportions
that it required the services of five
top stars is promised film fans
when Paramount's “El Paso" ar
rives tomorrow at the Gross 20tl
Century Theatre, with John Payne.
Gail Russell, Sterling Hayden,
George “Gabby'' Hayes and Dick
Foran in the leading roles.
Filmed in Cineoolor. “El faso,"
in addition to the five popular stars,
boasts an exceptionally fine sup
porting cast headed by Edwardo
N rlegn, famous Mexican star who
makes his American picture debut
in o colorful role: ex-stage star
Henry Hull, luscious Mary Beth
Hughes, veteran character actor, H
B Warner and juvenile Bobby Elll.
John Payne, in his first western
characterization, will be seen as a
Charleston lawyer who, shortly
after the Civil War, goes to El
Paso on a business mission, and to
look up the Charleston girl--Gail
Russell—with whom he fell in love
during the wnr. There he finds an
entirely different iwcrld than gen
teel Charleston—a. world of ruth
less lawlessness, where, to live long
a man has to know how to shoot
fast. Every one of the town officials
is a robbing murderer. The judge.
Gail's father, played by Henry Hull,
is a drunken Wreck of a man who
does their bidding. Gail’s loyalty
to her father prevents'her fn in re
turning to Charleston with Payne.
Payne’s love for her and his belief
in justice and fair play keei him
in El Paso, determined to establish
law and order there. The results
are dynamite.
