'CINCER' ROGERS
 AT LOEW'S POLL
Kitty FOyle' Opens TOmOr- row on Bill With "Saint
 in Palm Springs"

Frequently motion pictures en- deavor to make famous fictional character come to life on the screen. Rarely are such endeavorS as suc- cessful as they are in RKO Radios sumptuous production of kitty Foyle," which opens a four-day en- gagement tomorrow at the Loew Poi theater with Ginger Rogers do- ing a sclntillating job of creating Christopher Morley's salty white collar girl" in the cinematic flesh, and with a fine cast, story and di- rectior.
 AS the many readers of Morleys widely discussed novel will recall, Kitty is a fortnight, spirited Irish girl from Philadelphia who sets out to carve herself career as buSi- ness woman, after her hectic TO- nance with a well-meaning but weak young socialite proves some thing of a failure.
 But despite the earnest atten- tions of doctor who wants to mar " her, Kitty can't forget her first love, nor can she resist the appeal he makes on her. And her experi- ences, happy and tragic and al- ways human, and the constant con- flict within her between her head and her heart, all lead up to the drama of the conclusion when she has to make up her mind between marrying the doctor or running away with the disillusioned society man as his mistress.
 Giving the versatile Miss Rogers her finest characterization to date, the picture achieves remarkable conviction through its unique stream of consciousness" technique in expressing its story in the first person.
 Dennis Morgan gives excellent support to Miss Rogers as the so- cialite, and the new find" James Craig, proves himself valuable as the faithful young doctor. Ernest Cossart, Eduardo Ciannelli, Gladys Cooper and other well-known play CTS do exceptional work, and Sam Woods direction keeps the story'S acticn and its humannesS moving f1awlessly toward the thrilling cG- max.
 On the same program is another smash hit, "The Saint in Palm Springs" with George Sanders and Wendy Barrie heading an outstand- ing cast. Sanders has the title role of the Saint, a character he has made famous on the screen.
 Attractions coming to close at Loew's Poli tonight are "The Phil adelphia Story" starring Cary Grant, Katharine Hepburn and James Stweart, and Tall, Dark and Handsome" with Cesar Ro- mero and Virginia Gilmore.
