MiSS GRANT" IS COMEDY SHOWING NOW AT CAPITOL Co-starring Lucille Ball and Wil- liam Holden, Columbia's new com- edy, “Miss Grant Takes Richmond,” is the comedy featured at: the Cap- itol Theatre. Featured players ‘n- clude Janis Carter, James Glea- son, Gloria Henry and Frank Mc- Hugh. Said to be the most hilarious girl-takes-boy escapade of the year, “Miss Grant Takes Richmond” tells of the merry complications which result when a “dumb” secretary is hired by a bookie to work in his real estate office which actually is a front for his gambling activities. Miss Ball plays the secretary and Holden plays the bookie. Lloyd Bacon directed this S. Syl- van Simon Production, from a screen play by Nat Perrin, Devery Freeman and Frank Tashlin.
