 This is the Miss Shelley who used to be an actress and who had her first play produced a little less than a year ago by Mike Todd. That was Pickup Girl' and it was moderately successful at the box office. "Foxhole' is her second produced play,
 The new one demonstrates no advance as playwright over the earlier piece. In fact, it is not as strong in the interest holding de- partment as that first one. Rather than writing drama. Miss Shelley seems to be engaged in faShioning tracts. At times "FoXhole' sounds just like a lecture and some stretches of the dialogue are unbelievably suited.

Hepburn Tracy Vehicle, One of ''Kate's" Best,
 New Comedy Hit

There's fun galore at the Loew- Poli theater these days, for Metro Goldwyn-Mayer's new comedy hit, Without Love-" is on the screen there. Co-starring Spencer Tracy and Katherine Hepburn.
 You'll love Tracy as Pat Jomieson, a scientist-inventor looking in crowded Washington, for place to set up a workshop to perfect a high-altitude oxygen mask for the flyers att he Governments request And you'll love Miss Hepburn as Jamie Rowan, a lovely girl who hires him as caretaker for her house and lets him use the base ment as his laboratory.
 Pat doesn't want love because as he says, he's had "the worst of it.; Jamie, on the other hand rejects love because she's had 'the best of it." So she becomes Pats assistant on the oxygen-mask pro- ject and, one day, proposes that they

 The result, which you'll have to see for yourself, is one continuous series of hilarous situations as Pat and his woman-hating dog Dizzy encoun- ter Keenan Wynn, as Jamie's not too-sober cousin; Lucille Ball, as her business manager, and Felix Bressart, as Pats mentor.
 This is the most outstanding Tracy-Hepburn picture since "Wo- man of the Year." which many of us remember so pleasantly. It will now be replaced in your affectionate re- gard by their latest opus, With out Love-, in which the romnatic pair creates a new screen mem- ory.

wife, but his efforts were unavail-
ing.
To add to her distress, the au-
tOmObile in which she was trav-
cling to St. Louis with her maid
and chauffeur, broke down and
she was forced to take a bus. At
the roadside restaurant at which
the bus stopped so that passen-

Powell was in New York City
last Friday, and could not be
reached for verifcation of these
reports or comment. 1t was re-
ported in political circles here,
however, that he will probably bolt
the Democratic party as a result
of the discrimination his wife has
undergone on her concert tour, and
announce his sole affiliation with
the American Labor party.

three bills to withdraw privileges
