Everyone Declared It the Most Wonderful America's Leading Actress in Louisa May Alcott's "LITTLE Starts Tuesday rCSr mJ Whllo presenting clever, sophisti cated humor, "Long Lost Father" possesses an intriguing situation, wherein a father must reveal hie ahady past to the daughter he has neglected for twenty years to clear her of a crime. This is John Barry more'a starring vehicle, featuring Helen Chandler and Donald Cook, at the Rlalto theatre, starting tomorrow. "Good Dame" Is Lively Comedy With Sylvia Sidney and Predric March co-starred, "Good Dame", at the Craterlan theatre results In a breezy, fresh and well sustained comedy-drama. It is spiced with sparkling dialog and amusing situations which evoke constant laughter. Sylvia Sidney, fired from the chor us of a "turkey" musical show, visits a carnival and encounters Fredrlc March, wise-guy de luxe and "big shot" with the women of the world. The theft of her purse by March's shlll brings the two together. They are both kicked off the carni val train by LaRue, "carnle" man ager. When March tries to earn enough money to send her back home, they are arrested for peddling a window cleaning apparatus In an apartment house. Where as the "wise-cracking" Mace Townsley March has always walked out on all his dames from coast to const, in this case he keeps on walking right into her arms. It's a different type of role for him. but he does It In great shape, and Miss Sidney seldom has been more effective as the wistful "good dame."

The performance of Katharine Hep burn as Jo, and that of 20 other leading artists In amazingly authen t lea ted atmosphere, gives the whole production a sense of being the or iginal book brought to life, with all Its characters loving, sorrowing and rejoicing Just as they do within the aged pages, , 4 Pendleton Warm.
