Frances Dee Star Picture at Rialto Timely, universally Interesting and rlcvh in entertainment quality, "Com ing Out Party," which opened at the Rialto theater yesterday, proved to be a daringly and realistic expose of the dignified debutante racket, Jesse L. Lasky, producer, has gone to the society pages for his material, and has produced a lavish film that Is packed with laughs, romance, gayety and music. Going behind the scenes, the film depicts the petty hates and desires of debutantes and their ambitious, so cial climbing mothers. Conniving eo clsl secretaries, ambitions band lead ers, and "stags" trying to "crash" coming out parties, are few of the choice morsels served. Frances Dee and Gene Raymond who supply the romantic Interest, are both attractive and able In their roles, Alson Sklpworth, Nigel Bruce and Harry Green are excellent In their alloted characterizations. The short subject program with "Coming Out Party" is above the average, with a two-reeler, "The World's Greatest Tftrllls," showing the most exciting incidents ever shown in various newsreels In the past ten or fifteen years. There is also a cartoon, "A Merry Old Soul" which was cited by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences as one of the best shorts produced last year. A newsreel rounds out the program. 1 Diver Trapped Under Water Saved Sam Myers, veteran deep sea dlv. r, waa hauled from 30 feet of water by rescue squads after he had been wedged In an outlet of Salt Springs reservoir, 45 mile, from Stockton, Cal, for eight hours.
