GDMY SIMS HAS
TUNEFUL ROLE IN
CRAIERIMS HI!
George Murphy Co-Stars In
Technicolor Musical
Music, Drama At Rialto.
A gay and tuneful musical,
gtar-studded with fine entertain
ment, is to be found at the Cra
terian theatre today, Monday
Bnd Tuesday where the techni
color comedy, "Broadway
Rhythm," is playing. George
Murphy co-stars with lovely
Ginny Simms, radio's favorite
ginging sweetheart, making her
screen debut in Technicolor.
Loaded with lilting tunes,
plus the music of Tommy Dor
sey and his orchestra, "Broad
way Rhythm" is the story of a
successful Broadway producer
who hits a snag in his career
when he decides to go "arty"
and a hitch in his romantic plans
when the Hollywood star, play
ed by Ginny Simms, determines
to produce a play on her own
with the cooperation of Mur
phy's father and kid sister.
George Murphy, fresh from
his triumph in "This Is the
Army" and "Bataan," is happily
cast as the producer and his role
gives him opportunity to sing
and dance, and watching Mr.
Murphy sing and dance is any
moviegoer's pleasure. Ginny
Simms, in her first major movie
role, reveals a pretty face and
figure and an ability to handle
a speaking role with distinction.
Topping the twin-bill at the
rialto for today, Monday and
Tuesday is "Hot Rhythm", with
Dona Drake. "Two Man Subma
rine", a thriller starring Tom
Neal and Ann Savage, completes
the Rialto's holiday program.

where he was seated with Miss
O'Brien, and without introduc
tion kissed the .lady's hand.
"I have been looking for a elrl
to dance with me," the prince

the exchange of words turned to
an exchange -of blows.
