 And now Jean Connors, new conner on the RKO lot, arises to de- clare that she intends using her legs solely for support and not for display purposes. The reason Jean won't show off her legs Is because she has an excellent figure.
 "To do so immediately would get me typed for those scantily garbed bits, and I want to play more important dramatic roles,'' she declares.
 I'm not ashamed of my body and I'll show as much of it as is necessary for legitimate dramatic reasons. Otherwise, I intend to keep it covered. I may be wrong in my decision, but I'm going to gamble on it, anyway"
 Maybe Jean-is right-but, on the other hand, lot of our successful dramatic actresses got their starts through revealing almost every thing they had to show. Beauty Hint

Performances this evening mark t,le Anal presentation of the cur- rent double feature program at Warmers State, which includes sThe Big Shakedown" and Be- ioved."
 Agalnst a background of the most amazing jungle scenery eyer brought to the screen, the story de- tails the adventures of four highly cultured people, two women and two men, who are forced ot escape from a Dutch steamer when bu- bonic plague breaks out. Lost for months in a Malay jungle, they turn to primitive manners and hab- its. The transformation of a prim little school teacher into a beautiful jungle creature over whom the men nght provides some highly novel situations.
 This latter role played by Claud- cite Colbert is the most outstanding achievement of her career and more than justifies her elevation to gtardom. Herbert Marshall and William Gargan, in contrasting roles, enhance the story with finely drawn portrayals.
 No funnier situation was ever devised for the screen than the placing of the dignified Mary Bo- land in primitive surroundings. This splendid comedienne made a Tremendous hit with last nights audience. Leo Carillo, in the role 0f a half-caste guides, proves his versatility with this newest charac- eerization in his long screen reper- toire.
