THE D0UGHGIRLS'
CURRENT FEATURE
AT 10Th CENTURY

THE Doughgirls" is the holiday
feature at the goth Century and in
making the film from the stage
show, the producers went completely
berserk in romantic mathematics.
The basic situation is Arthur Hal
stead Jack CARSON and vi tJane
Wymam are supposed to be married,
but they suddenly find out that the
man who performed the ceremony
is no justice of the peace, but just
a jerk.
They are crowded into the same
hotel suite as Julian Cadman John
Ridgely) and Edna (Ann Sheridan).
but suddenly Sylvia Cadman Irene
Mahning) shows up and demands
Julian on the basis that their di-
vorce was not final when Julian
married again.
Also present, if not entirely ac-
counted for, in the same suite is
Nan Dillon alexis Smith who has
come to the capital to marry an
Air Force lieutenant, who, with
healthy optimism, described HIM
self as already married in his Off
cial papers.
Add to this menage a wet wash
king who goes romantic for Sylvia;
radio newscaster in the person
Of Alan Mowbray. who shows up to
claim the partment as his own; and
Charlie Ruggles, bureaucrat who
is always busy, mostly trying to i'm
press Jane Wyman.
The Doughgirls" is full of howls
and outlaws.
