Colbert Love
For Earle

An up-to-the-minute gal with q
thirst for fun, Claudette Colbert
sails mer1ily abroad in her new
comedy-romance, IT Met Him In
Paris" which opens next Friday
at the Earle Theatre, and plunges
headlong into a double-barrelled
romance with two gay, giddy, deb
OMAR young gents, Melvyn Doug
las and Robert Young.
Douglas and Young, who play
the parts of two writer's equally
determined to win Miss Colbert's
heart, meet the brunette on her
arrival in Paris. The gay ro-
mantle chase carries the trio to
the Swiss Alps, and then back
again to Paris, with the girl still
unable to make UP her mind which
of her two determined SuitorS she
prefers.
While those scenes laid in Paris
afford Miss Colbert opportunity
to wear the glamorous style Gre
atoms which Travis Banton de.
signed for her, the outdoor Alpine
scenes also introduce thrilling
sports fashions which will Ger.
tainly set new fashion trends. The
star sports more than a dozen
changes Of dress, including formal,
travelling, informal, sports and ski
ing costumes.
Miss Colbert's two SWANS have
wardrobes almost as lavish as
hers. Melvyn Douglas makes nine
changes Of clothes and Robert
Young II. Male fashion experts
predict that some Of the startling
new sports outfits which Travis
Banton designed for Douglas and
Young will help to establish new
style trends for sports retreats
next winter.
