6 by bringing in an abandoned
adolescent girl who is more than
o bit Of a problem child.
When this adventure turns out
successfully (and when her hus-
band glimpses a certain amour.
of serenity ahead), she finds an
other problem child, this one an
orphan left a set of leg braces by
q bout with polio at the age Of 2
and chip on his shoulder by a
decade of being bounced from hos
pital to orphanage and back to-
hospital again.
The quick cure achieved by
these two is a little too pat, per-
haps, but it is quite joy to watch
it unfold as the girl overcomes
her sullenness to become the
belle of her first ball and
the boy overcomes both his
defiance and his physical draw
back to win his Eagle Scout badge.
Director Norman Taurog, an old
hand with both children and
comedy, has got the best out OF
both ingredients Of Room for
One More"
Young Tatum's performance as
the polio victim probably is the
most appealing in the film and
he may break your heart a little
when he brings his courage to
bear on such normal boy pursuits
as riding bicycle. Miss Mann's
portrayal of the adolescent aban-
doned by her mother, whose snarl
for the world is cured by the love
of foster parents, is fine one, too.
The comedy star of Room for
One More" though, is George
Winslow, who plays the youngest
of the Roses own children. He's
the finest 6-year-old Great Dis
senter to turn up in a long time,
ever ready to slam the hard word
of truth into the middle Of a soft
voiced family problem.
Miss Drake and Grant would
deserve praise for getting in there
in the face of this competition
even if they hadn't Jared as well
as they do. AS it is they also de-
serve praise for joining Mr..
Taurog in keeping it all on just
the right level of sentimental hui

lem is that you just don't like
