Delightful comedy without a
shadow of remorse comes to the
screen of the Cool Craterian
Theatre today for a three-day
engagement with Norma Shear
er and Robert Taylor in "Her
Cardboard Lover."
Featuring George Sanders,
Frank McHugh and Elizabeth
Patterson in top roles. "Her
Cardboard Lover", comes to
Medford as one of the leading
comedies of this year.
The narrative presents a
charming visitor at Palm Beach,
Miss Shearer, who is desperately
in love with Tony, portrayed by
George Sanders but convinced
that he is a ne'er-do-well. In
order to evade his attentions she
retains Terry, a handsome
young song writer, to squire her
around the resort and keep Tony
at a distance. Taylor appears in
the role with alacrity.
Naturally, this arrangement
develops complications, all of
them laughable. It also brings
on a pitched battle between Tay
lor and Sanders, equally humor-
l ous. Eventually, the debonair
gong writer wins the girl him
self, but only after a series of
Bdventures.
