Its All Yours
For Earle

Madeleine Carroll loves
Francis Lederer; Mischa Auer
adoreS Madeleine Carroll and
Francis Lederer abhors Mischa
Auer in Columbia'S zestful new
romantic comedy, cts All
Yours" which will head the new
screen bill at the Earle Theater
starting Friday.
Directed by Elliott Nugent
from a screen play by Mary C.
Mccall, jr., the film romps
riotously through more romantic
complications than ever floored
Cupid with one fatal blow.
Speaking specifically, Made
leine is a mouse-like secretary
to an umpty-millionaire who
brings his foreign-bred nephew,
Francis Lederer, to the States.
Five years later Lederer's esca-
pades are the scandal of San
Francisco. On his death bed,
Lederer's uncle leaves his en-
tire fortune to Madeleine with
instructions for Madeleine to
make Lederer fall in love with
her and marry the fortune in
stead of inheriting it.
Madeleine goes wild. To pre-
vent her from spending the for
tune while he tries to recoup it
through the courts, Lederer goes
along as her private secretary.
Thus begins one of the widest
husband-hunts in all screen
history.

LAKE VS.. BIG APPLE
Col. Jimmy Lake starts some
thing by announcing he has the
originator of the Big Apple
dancing in his Gold and Blue
Room Cafe. Be quiet, colonel.
Billy Snyder may do the large
pippin on Ninth Street, but the
present dance craze began at
Columbia, S. c., and the "shag"
and shine" students of the Uni
verSity of South Carolina were
the ones who called it to the
attention of the Dancing Mas
tiers of America.
These dance professors really
gave this Smouldering, dipping
and twisting routine a dignity
when they went through the
Big Apple for the news reels dur
ing the recent annual conven-
ton at the Mayflower Hotel.
This led the swanky Rainbow
Room at Rockefeller Radio City
to feature the dance.
Don't tell me the professors
gave me the wrong information.
One of our top flight movie
comedians created such an
alcoholic disturbance on the set
in Hollywood last week they had
to call his mother to quiet him
down. The comic said he was
doing a new version of the Big
Apple.

cadets who fell victims to his
Scheming.
In spite of his recklessness,
Brother Rat Randolph was an
appealing character and George
Abbott's comedy romped along
at it's top speed when he was
accelerating things with prank
ish new ideas for deviltry. His
two pals, Bling Edwards and
Dan Crawford, V. M. rs crack
baseball battery tried to be cir
cumspect and follow the code,
but Billy was a fast ball and Q
sucker for slow one.
BY mixing in a secret mar
riage and maternity, Producer
Abbott has contrived to spin out
the laughs for three acts, with
some moments in each that
are Screamingly hilarious.
AN EXCELLENT CAST
The Abbott system Of infiltrat-
ing experienced players from the
Broadway company gave this
youthful acting troupe all the
polish and pace hat comes with
seasoned playing.
Eddie Bracken has the plump
4ole of Bill Randolph, a part
created originally by Frank Al
bertson, of Hollywood. and he
is endowed with the necessary
vim, verve and boundleSS en-
ergy to keep it always in imp
ish mood.
BY contrast, the Bling Ed
wards" of Reese Alsop, soft,
drawing athlete who worried
over chemistry and his ap-
preaching paternity, gained in
effectiveness.
The allure in Brother Rat" is
especially we'll cared for by
Clare Hazel with a genuine Dixie
accent and Jean Mccoy. who
looks like a brunette edition OF
early Nancy Carroll.
In the accent on youth sup
porting cast also were James
ellis, Gary Merrill, Mary Rolfe,
Burke O'Connell and Robert
Scott. The matured characteri-
cations were brilliantly played by
Mary Perry and Hollis Mitchell.
Brother Rat" by all means,
if you crave laughs. 1t is Holly
wood bound, but it gave this
Monday night audience in the
redecorated theater resounding
slap on the funny bone. Those
new seats are comfortable, the
crimson color scheme is attrac.

'Sun-Up' Stars
Mcdonald

The North Carolina noun
tains were picked up and set
down out in Virginia last night,
as the Cross Roads Theater pre-
sented Lulu Vollmer'S famed
play, "Sun-Up.'
Here is a story that tears at
your heart strings, as a mothers
love is poured out for a son who
had gone to war. What makes
it worse, is the fact that none
seem to realize just what kind
of a conflict it is nor where it
is, or whom they are fighting.
MCDONALD GETS HARD
OF course, it is the World
War that all the talk is about.
But they kind of calculate that
France is Just over the noun.
tain a piece. And the Huns?
Why they ne'er heard tell Of
them.
AS you can gather, "Sun-up"
is the story of how the World
War draft affected the eagle
family, deep in the hills of the
Carolinas. Where the only law
is a gun, and ignorance is bliss.
The cast worked together re-
markedly we'll. So we'll in fact,
that there seemed to be no out
standing performance. So it
wouldn't be fair to 60 ahead and
single out any one in particular.
But the Cross Roads spring a
surprise. They have in the cast,
playing the part of Sheriff
Weeks, Arch Mcdonald, the
baseball man of radio. He loves
Emmy Todd, and woos her hand
with: IT reckon I could be a
little worse lookin'." He gets
