You Were Never Lovelier" is
said by an enraptured Hollywood
to fittingly describe Rita Hay
worth's screen appearance. The title
of the film, Columbia's newest mu-
steal, directed by william A. Setter
and coming to the Capitol Theatre
Sunday, does not note that Fred
Astaire is Miss Hayworth's dancing
and romancing partner; nor does
does it note that Jerome Kern
has penned for the Astaire- Hay
worth team his greatest musical
score since SHOW Boat"
On the ether hand, according
to filmdom, if these things are not
to be found in the title, they are
to be found in the film. . and that
is of far greater entertainment con-
sequence. Miss Hayworths glowing
beauty and exciting ability COM
bine with Astaires magnetic per-
sonality and enchanting rhythm
a glittering whirl of gaiety and ro-
nance, surprising their delightful
success of last year, You'll Never

The Jerome Kern tunes are pre-
sented by Xavier Cugat and his
orchestra, who are featured with
Adolphe Menjou in support of the
stars. The songs, which already
have thrilled millions of radio fans.
include: I'm Old Fashioned, y
Dearly Beloved" You Were Never

others. In addition Cugat and his

come about since that time, she
pointed out.
Originally Mrs. Prettyman had
arranged to work at Emergency
Hospital, but after she had been
there a day or so she was persuaded
to give her time to the Florence
Crittenton Hospital for the present.
She is member of the board of
this home for unmarried mothers
and was delighted to make the
transfer
The fact that she adores babies
makes her new assignment an espe-
cially happy one.
Very modest about the matter of
taking up her profession again, Mrs.
Prettyman discounts it as really
quite unimportant," but officials of
the home point out that her service
| meets an urgent need
There are great many babies at
| the home noW-in fact, there were
almost more babies than cribs for
time. And the fact that the staff

puts heavy burden on Miss Pa

who is now in charge of the hos

Mrs. Prettyman is the only reg
istered nurse giving volunteer as
sistance but several of the board
members come in frequently to lend
a hand. One of the most faithful
is Mrs. G. E. Davis, in charge of
clothing for the home, who helps in
such things as feeding and bathing
