-Laughter and romance are the
happy combination used in "Af
tectionately Yours," the new com
idy starting .today, at. the. Liberty
fieatre. with Merle Oberon, Den
(is Morgan and Rita Hayworth
eading the large, and able cast
."With Dennis (Kitty Foyle's boy
Jriend)" Morgan in the middle of
triangle completed by the Misses
Oberon and Hayworth, the story
fets off to an hilarious start. It
teems that . Dennis, having a
wonderful time as a playboy foreign-
correspondent in Lisbon,
Portugal, gets word from New
York that his wife, Merle Oberon
In the picture, has divorced him
and is going to remarry. In spite
f his own philandering he is
horrified at his wife's "unfaith
fulness" and immediately boards
a clipper for America, hotly purr
sued by his girl colleague,, played
by Rita Hayworth. Then follows
the amusing recital of his efforts
lo win back his wife, with Rita
equally intent on trying to win
him. The three-cornered chase
revolves itself into one riotous
situation after another, climaxing
in , one of the most amusing
"waiting at the church" scenes
: ever filmed, with veteran waiter
at-jthe-church Ralph Bellamy as
the Bridegroom who gets the
stand-up. Companion feature stars
Edward G. Robinson as "The Sea
Wolf with Ida Lupino and John
Garfield.
BEHIND th
HOLLYVO
. By HARRISON CARROLL
j King Features Syndicate Writer
A recent rain really crossed up
the Hollywood celebs who have
been riding motorcycles to save
tires. Leif Erickson was too soak
ed to make it home to the beach,
so he roared up to the Hotel
Knickerbocker' wearing his na
tive costume from "Pardon My
Sarong."
Even the blase Hollywood
crowds stared.
On the set of "The Major
and the Minor," I watched Gin
ger Rogers and Frankie Thom
as dancing: in a "group of 15-year-old
kids. Ginger is sup
posed to be masquerading as a
youngster and, in her pink
fluffy dress, she really looks as
young as many of the kids.
As she and Frankie danced
he told her, "Boy, the way you
make with your feet, it's like
dancing with a puff of wind."
This was In the script. After
ward, I asked 21-year-old
Frankie how it felt to be a
Fred Astaire with Ginger.
"Now I'm living!" he ex
claimed with a grin. "My grand
children will hear about this."

"Bahama Passage" Story
Set in West Indies
Madeleine Carroll certainly sets around! The lovely blonde
Paramount star has done some tall
life, but cinematically she's outdone even herself. In "The Gen
eral Died at Dawn" she went to China; in 'Honeymoon in Bali"
Capitol Bills
Alaskan Film
It is only at rare intervals that
the screen presents such a power
ful, closely-knit drama as "Klon
dike Fury," the Monogram pic
ture now playing at the Capitol
theatre. The picture qualifies as
engrossing entertainment, and a
distince contribution to the sea
son's film output.
When Lowe's plane crashes in
the northern woods, he conva
lesces at a nearby trading post,
where he Is cared for by Miss
Fairbanks, daughter of the own
er. The crippled Henry, a mem
ber of the household, becomes
jealous over the apparent mutual
interest of the pair, but Is never
theless induced by his father to
place himself in Lowe's hands
for the same delicate operation
in which the doctor had prev
iously failed. The result of this
situation brings the picture to
an absorbing climax. Companion
feature is "Sunset on the Desert"
with Roy Rogers.

"We're the only two people In
the world who have been success
ful doing nothing, Is the way Ole
Olsen explains . the : fantastic, ac
complishments of Olsen and John
son In the entertainment, world,
the latest of which is their May
fair Productions movie "Hellza
poppin'," ' presented by Universal
and now playing at the Holly-.
wood theatre. ,
"Yeah," chuckled Chie John
son, "and we've been .getting
paid for It, too!" '
Johnson is right, they have
been paid, and plenty;, but rec
ords show Olsen is wrong when
he says they've been doing
nothing.
Contrary to most self-made
success stories, Olsen and John
son have never had heartbreak
and struggle in their climb to
success.
True, they did start in humble
beginnings a sub-basement hon-key-tonk
night club in Chicago
nearly thinrty years ago. But It
'vasnt long, before they were in
vaudeville, singing, playing the
oiano, Joking. Their act wasn't
sensational, but they got good
salaries, and worked forty weeks
a year.
j Now In pictures, with Ole
' and Chie in addition to Martha
Raye, Hugh Herbert, Mischa
Auer, Jane Fraaee and Robert
! Page, "Helliapopppin"' is big
ger, nolser and more lavish
than. ever.
Already richer by $3,000,000
. from their earnings b 11 the stage
' show, it has been estimated by
the time they collect their earn
ings of the two road show pro
: ductions, the two Scandinavian
' comedians will eventually gross
$10,000,000 from the title.
