Just as gay and refreshing as the spring season, this cleverly writen, expertly directed farce which com- bines piccolo players, burglars,| crooners and family pearls, and| achieves laughs and a gorgeous time for all, projects Jack Haley to stardom. e As you might suspect, the cen- tral character of the plot is Haley, who becomes an extremely inept burglar to please his '‘sweetie” Isa- bel Jewell. A bungled attempt at| petty larceny lands him hnness,i pantless and with just an overcoat | to cover him, in the pullman suite of a deserted bride, Patricia Ems.: To save her face,'Miss Ellis takes Jack home with her and introduces | him to her aunt as her husband,— ' a radio crooner. From then on Jack has to duck the aunt who wants to hear him croon. To complicate matters further, Miss Ellis’ real sweetheart, Neil Hamilton, and Miss Jewell turn up. Bhe's pretending to be a maid so that she can steal the family pearls, Then the crooner makes his entrance and the merry mix- up that follows serves to re-dis- | tribute the loving couples so that everybody is happy again and the !crooner gets his just desserts—the air! the Groom” Every- thmg is e but these E— One Major Question Lies Behind Dispute in National Capitol (Continued from Page One) | place has been artificial and pure- ly temporary, that further large- scale neau, Alaska, and the buildings|geoq money after bad. thereon and appurtenances there-| 7t s upon this realistic basis that unto belonging.
