It is a role spiced with humor and swift re- artee, giving her unlimited oppor- tunity to display her histrionic tal- | ents. McCrea’s part also is ideal for the rugged young star, and the pair are supported by a notable hand-picked cast of favorites. The picture marks the second time Ginger and McCrea have been teamed, They first appeared to- gether in “Chance at Heaven some six years ago. It is also the third offering in which Gregory La Cava has directed Ginger, fol- lowing “Fifth Avenue and “Stage Door.” In “Primrose Path” he has a drama that gives full scope peculiar talents for strik- listic and human note. Ramk and Miles Mander enact the r of Ginger's parents, with Henry Travers as McCrea’'s kindly grandfather, and Queenie Vassar, noted musical com- edy star of the nineties, making her screen debut as Ginger's wasp- ish grandmother.

Her husband dead in a Nazi pris- on and her country crushed by the German blitzkrieg, the Countess Helen Chlapowska, once one of the wealthiest women in Poland and a leader of continental society, lives today with but one purpose in life, the defeat of Nazism. Seated in a peaceful hotel room in New York, still a little tired after her clipper flight from Europe, the wife of the late Polish ambassador to France has before her a small suitcase, Bolding all her earthly belongings. From it she takes “the most valu- able flxin; I have saved—my diary, kept during the nineteen weeks 1 spent in a Nazi jail.” The countess explains, “If my memory ever fal- ters, if T ever start forgetting what o e Y.

Al- though the count was retired from official life, both were immediately thrown into prison. Twice the count- ess was put before a firing squad when she refused to become a spy of the Gestapo or to divulge in- formation. The guns were raised and she heard the command, “Fire.” Aiurwudl she was told it was a Jjoke. Her husband contracted pneumo- nia in his barren prison cell, which remained unheated throughout the severe Polish winter, in accordance with the Nazi theory that the Poles are “an inferior race which must be destroyed.” “As a special favor,” the count- ess relates, “I was permitted to be at his bedside when he died.” Few -persons in Nazi-conquered Poland have been so fortunate as their people, the count and countess the countess, who escaped through the intervention of the King of Sweden and the Queen of Italy. The latter sent Dino Alfieri, Italian ambassador to Berlin, to Heinrich Himmler, Gegtapo chief, to plead for release of the countess. As a re- sult, she was allowed to flee to Italy, thence to France. When Paris fell to the Germans, she was forced te take flight again. “I have come to America,” she explains, “because I think that from here I shall be able to work for lib- eration of my country. This can be done only through the defeat of Nazism throughout the world. Like my 20-year-old son, who is an aide- de-camp of General Sikorski, eom- mander-in-chief of Polish forces in England, I shall continue to do all to banish, the evil which took my husband and my country, but which cannot rob me of my faith in the ultimate defeat of Nazism.” Sisterhood also met last Mrs. Sam Hopkins; School Corresponding Soboleff. terhood sponsored a lunch- born this morn- Hospital to Mr. and The infant weigh- baby dismissed from 8t.
