"Dam aged Lives," now at the Rlalto the ater until tomorrow night, does Just this. Following the lives of a young couple, through their courtship, their engagement period and then mar riage, "Damaged Lives" shows how ignorance of sex and Its many at tendant problems can very easily re sult In broken up homes and unhap plness. It is a daring drama, frank and yet with none of the "dirt" one might expect. It is a story of the youth of today, seeking happiness, and not knowing of many of the pitfalls. It is In throwing light upon these subjects that the film suc ceeds In bringing Its message with a sometimes startling effect. On the stage. In conjunction with the showing of the film.
