Hutch" is the central character,

novel theme, Interestingly pre-
sented and quite plausible
throughout. The idea Of the vii
lage loafer finding 100000. all
in $1,000 bills, 1 think, is q swell
one to hang yarn on. This
has been done in great style and
you will find yourself suffering
with odd Hutch as he sweats
over the problem of how he can
get away with spending $1,000
bills.
A Pleasing Yarn
His temporary reformation, the
problems of his growing and beau
tiful daughter and "Old Hutch's"
slipping back into the quiet life
of fisherman and loafer. after an
exciting and dramatic interlude,
are woven into as exciting and
pleasing yarn as you Will meet
with in month of Sundays.
Cecilia Parker, as Irene" the
daughter, does a convincing char
acterization as the innocent coun-
try girl on the verge of woman
hood.
Elizabeth Patterson, as the wife,
contributes a we'll done version of
the too-patient female. Miss Pat
terson rises to the heights of good
acting in the sequence where,
after 20 years, she stages her brief
and tremulouS rebellion.

Seven Sinners,' Fun Mystery
At the Metropolitan

Just what our British cousins
are driving at in their current
Gaumont British offering is at
times just as much of a mystery
to the audience as it is to Miss
Constance Cummings and Ed
mund Lowe, U. S. detectives hired
for a crimes solution. The tale
which bears the incongruous title
of Seven Sinners" carries for its
final denouement one of those so
very surprising solutions typical
of such stories that deal with in
ternationAl crooks. Just whatever
else can be said pro and con in
the films behalf let it be noted
now at the start the BritiShers
are no pikers in dishing out the
thrills. Five, no less, spectacular
train wrecks engage your atten-
ton.
Opening with carnival time at
Nice and the tempo keyed to gala

shifts to mystery and melodrama
when HARDWOOD, American detec-

attractive female companion, Caryl
Fenton, insurance investigator, all
over London, Paris and quiet Eng

ing games, others, more ener-
getic, having swimming races
and still others just sitting and
talking.
1t does seem a bit early to
be saying, so many more shop
ping days until Christmas, but
apparently people are looking
ahead to that time, and seri-
Ously, too. One young couple
have selected the GaY after
Santa's visit for their we'd

young lady, who is very dainty
and petite, will be making an

distant future.
For Washington to be as
deserted as 1t is supposed
to be now, one certainly runs
into an amazing number of
friends and familiar faces at
the evening spots. At the Pow
hatan Roof the Bill Brides
waved a CHEEKY hello while
waltzing. Patsy was in blue
and white, her blonde curls
peeking out from a cute little
dark blue pill box hat topped
off with white doodad. At
a table that was practically
in the midst of the orchestra
sat Peg Gibbins, bundled up
in white coat, and Ken Wat
son. Those two are more and
more often being seen going
places together. Ellen Pat
terson Roberts, back from
Blue Ridge and from matron-
of-honoring at the wedding
of sister Janet to Austin Sui
livan, was looking most fetch
ing in her yellow ensemble,
and telling us hello, goodbye
and that she was going to
visit down at Quantico-all in
one breath.
Mrs. William Hanson is one
of those persons who has the
lovely combination of prema-
turely gray hair, vivid color
ing and a knack for wearing
stunning clothes. Saw her at
dinner the other evening and
she was wearing a somewhat
tailored evening frock Of white
silk printed in gay shades.
