“Pigskin Parade”
At Prince Edward'
There are riotous runs and dizzy 1
drop-kicks, foolish fo1‘\\'a1‘ds and _
cuckoo coaches, hilarious half-bzicks
and tuneful touchdown in the giddy
gridiron musical, "Pigskin Parade,"
opening today at the Prince Edward
Theatre.
The picture which features Stuart
Erwin, Johnny Downs, Arllne Judge. |
Betty Grable, Patsy Kelly. Jack
Haley. the Yacht Club Boys. Dixie
Dunbar. Anthony Martin and Judy
Garland. is a crazy campus caper
with a procession of swlngy songs
and a. never-ceasing barrage of
looney laughter.
More melodious than “'I‘l11mks A
Million," more side-splitting than
"Sing, Baby. Sing," “Pigskin Par-
ade" turns loose a legion of dare-
ing girls and their singing pa`s in
an uproarious yarn of 8. fresh water
college that plays the big game of
the season amid a tidal wave of tit-
ters with the powerful Boola-Boola
team just because somebody mailed
the right letter to the wrong place!
The invitation to play against the
unbeaten Boola-Boola isn't meant
for Yipee University at all, but
when Yipee's youthful coach, Jack
Haley and his wife, Patsy Kelly, re-
ceive it, they shoot in their accept-
ance before it is cancelled.
Tossing the pigskin oval around
like a. bean bag. the Yipee boys ruin
the morale of their foes, then pro-
ceed to mop up one powerful team
after another. On they Sweep £0
national fame, until thc star full-
back is knocked out for the season
through an injury.
Thats where the morose Stuart
Erwin. a muscular hill-billy who
can throw a muskmelon father than
Washington tossed that silver dol-
lar, comes in to save the day. Er-
win is drafted as the new YiP€€
forward-passing star and really
proves to be a marvel, even though
he draws the line at wearing shoes
no matter how rough the game.
After a series of hilarious games,
Yipee and Boola-Boola. lock homs
for the big game, which works up to
a rib-racking climax of mad mirth
in one of the craziest football games
ever seen in a harried coach`s wild-
est nightmares.
what a. scream! What a team!
The college cut-ups strut their .stuff
to create a laugh smash, a song and
dance flash, another tune touch-
down in the Twentieth Century-Fox
hit parade.

CAROLS
Songs of joy and praise, often
accompanied by dances, have been
sung by the English for more than
a thousand years. being handed on
from the Druids to the Christian
Church. "On Christmas Day in
the Morning." and "The Cherry-
tree Carol." are found in many
languages, with slightly different
