the boss's hobby is giving eX-crim- inals a chance, are the chief char acters, and the theme is crime doesn't-pay with a new, dollars-and- cents reason. It might have been better in this opinion, if Lang had told his metropolitan fairy tale straightforwardly without the musi- cal preamble stating his theme, and without resorting to "impressionis- tic" sequences-but maybe we don't know art when we see it. And Raft might have said "Shet ep!' few times less. But You and Me" has much to commend, including a clever fight sequence between Raft and Quinn Williams, and a nice character performance by Vera Cor don.

 YELLOW JACK
 SPLENDID BILL.
Robert Montgomery, Vir ginia Bruce Are Seen
 in Leading Roles
By ROBBIN COONS

HOLLYWOOD, Cal, June 20. = Next to "Alexander's Ragtime Band" the most limelighted of recent pie lures is "Yellow Jack" a solid and compelling screen adaptation of the Sidney Howard Paul de Kruif play about the conquest of yellow fever
 The Zanuck musical was no sur prise to Hollywood, although it is better even than expected. "Yel low Jack was. The teaming of Robert Montgomery and Virginia Bruce (seen last in the light First 100 Years'D suggested however un- fairly that the movies were going to do awful things to another fine stage play. Instead, Yellow Jack" gives Montgomery his best acting role since Night Must Fall" and unreels convincingly as story of unmelodramatic heroism. It has humanness and humor, and a little romance along with it's starker busi- ness, none of it forced There are fine performances especially by Lewis Stone, Henry Hull, Charles Coburn and Sam Levene, with Bud- dy Ebsen, Alan Curtis, Andy Devine and William Henry all excellent.
