"I VV- -Hit May Robson, beloved star of stage and screen, is the central figure In "You Can't Buy Everything," open ing at the Craterian theater today. Lewis Stone and Jean Parker have the featured supporting roles. "You Can't Buy Everything" shows Miss Robson as the eccentric old New York miser, Hannah Bell, whose hoarded millions serve only to lead her to the brink of catastrophe.

Lew Ayres Heads Cast Rialto Film "Let's Be Ritzy," with Lew Ayres and Patricia Ellis In the leading roles and playing at the Rllato theater until tomorrow night, Is a delightful film story of the mundane hopes, ambitions, disappointments, dtsaliu- slonments, surprises and minor trag edies that are part of the workaday life of everybody.

Combined income Is not enough to keep them out of the red as both have a liking for small extravagances, common to most young people. Frang McHu&li con vinces them that to succeed one must put on the rltz and bluff it.
