SPRING PARADE"
far
You'll have to travel
and wide to find a better hour of enter tainment than Univeral's "Spring Parade", which opens tomorrows at the Majestic Theatre...
The star is Deanna Durbin..
The picture presents the star as a young village girl who goes to the city. In the metropolis, she meets and falls in love with Ro- bert Cummings," a young, blade, and the picture tells the progress of their love affair over a bumpy --and highly laugh-filled-road of complications.
