Tonight is the last showing of
Will Rogers in the feature film
'‘The Connecticut Yankee” at the
Liberty theater. Rogers, who ranks
as the greatest living American
humorist and comedian, starts out j
_n the play as a small town radio '
dealer. j
He delivers a battery to a mys- I
terious mansion on the hill o n e j
stormy night. The owner of the j
house hopes to hook his huge raido j
:n on sound waves which have been
batting around the ether since the
beginning of time.
He tunes in on what appears to
be King Arthur’s court. There is a
terrific flash of lightening, and
Rogers wakes up in the sixth cen
tury, right in the middle of t h e
Round Table. He narrowly escapes
burning at the stake and then,
through his native Yankee sagacity,
becomes Prime Minister. Many
other incidents follow which are
too good to be revealed here. See
it for yourself.
