Although definitely no glamour

One of the most poignant, hu

Columbia’s “Girls Under 21” opens
soon at the Joy Theatre. Bruce
Cabot, Rochelle Hudson and Paul
Kelly are featured in the story of
a young school teacher’s efforts
to regenerate a group of hard-boil

reform school to their dirty, “Dead

RADIO COMEDIENNE HAS
CHARM AND BEAUTY—
Hollywood is full of homely and
partially good-looking girls who
are trying to be pretty, but Bar
bara Jo Allen is probably the only
Hollywood star who carries on a
deliberate and consistent campaign
to be homely!
But she found that there was an
untapped gold mine in homeliness,
so she skinned back her hair, don
ned stiff collars and ante-diluvian
hats, and created her wacky, screw
ball character of “Vera Vague”
which has been convulsing radio
audiences and which she now brings
to the screen in the Republic film
“Melody in Moonlight.”

HAS GOOD POINTS—
“The Great Lie” is the love story
of a magnificent cheat. In it, Bette
Davis has what many previewers
have pronounced her finest
to date.
A deeply moving story of the
heights to which a woman can rise
for the man she loves, the new
film gives Miss Davis her first
opportunity in years to portray
a normal, modern American girl,
