self. Universal's musical farce, "La Conga Nights," is at the Majestic Theatre...

Spilling laughter and rapid-fire "gags" through every scene, the m reveals Herbert playing his mother, his grandfather and a quartette of dizzy sisters in addi- tion to "himself." Destined to rank as one of the funniest pic- tures of the year, "La Conta Nights" is generously springled with lilting music, new songs and gay dance routines.

Constance Moore as a pretty stager out of a job, and Dennis O'Keefe in the role of a dancing taxi-driver are youthful and re-. freshing in well played romantic roles. But it is Herbert who keeps the laughs bubbling forth from be- ginning to end.
