IN MUSICAL
Fl
Their fourth co-atarring musical
bit bring Fred Astaire and dinger
Rogers to the screen of the Craterian
theatre, starting today, In "Follow
the Fleet." And, as was the case In
their last show "Top Hat," the entire
musical score was written by the ace
songwriter. Irving Berlin. His genius
floods the screen to provide rhythm
for the miraculous feet of Astaire
and Rogers, and infectious lyrics for
their voices.
" "Follow the Fleet" Is an adapta
tion of two famous plays, "Hit the
Deck" and "Shore Leave." it la a
story of gobs and girls when the
fleet's In. It catches the Invigorating
spirit of the navy afloat and ashore,
dramatizing Its high-pitched exelte
ment end gaiety, its robust humor.
Its romantic depths and setting the
whole dizzy whirl to effervescent
music
Astaire and Miss Rogers, either
singly or together, sing and dance
five numbers. Two other numbers In
troduce Harriet HUllard, recruited
from radio and stage, to motion pie
ture fans In a manner that almost
steals the show. Randolph Scott,
seen In "Roberta," with the two danc
ing stars, Is again featured with
them this time as Astalre's buddy.
Others In the cost Include Astrld
Allwyn, Ray Mayer, Betty Orable, Joy
Hodges and Jeanne Grey.
The Craterlan's Wednesday only
show brings little Jane withers, with
Pinky Tomlln, Rita Canslno, Jane
Parwell and George Divot the Greek
ambassador of radio In "Paddy
ODay."
"Paddy ODay" Is a little Irish lass
Who comes to the United States In
the steerage of a boat, only to learn
her mother has died and she must
be sent back by the immigration of
ficers. But Paddy, little minx that
she Is, decides to stay and, eluding
the officers, makes her way to the
house where her mother used to work.
There she finds two eccentric sunts
trying to suppress the irrepressible
Pinky Tomlln. Pinky and Paddy, kin
dred souls, enjoy themselves together
until the law cornea and almost sue
oeeda In sending Paddy back to Ire
landalmost. Be correctly corseted In
