In “Little Miss Marker” Runyon created a situation where Shirley Temple, then practically unknown, was left as security to make good a wager of two dollars in a horse race. The horse lost, and the father never came back to claim Shirley, who was adopted by a bookmaker and his tough Broadway friends. In “Butch Minds the Baby,” coming to the Capitol Wednesday, Damon Runyan brings a 13- months-old baby into the life of a hardened professional safe crack- er, enacted by Brod Crawford. The a jation of “Butch” and his hard-boiled mob of friends with the baby results in dramatic situ- ations similar to those which made “Little Miss Marker” so successful. The baby in the picture is 13- months-old Hareld Michael Bar- nitz, who is hailed by Director Al- bert S. Rogell as “a baby in a mil- licn.” Featured in the Universal picture are Virginia Bruce, Craw- | ford, Dick' Foran, Porter Hall and Shcmp Howard.
