Warners anil director David Butler have con' verted the stage smash into a titillating screen entertainment with some of the most personahle people on their roster. Doris Day, the canary who used to be a hoofer, gets plenty of opportunity to work in both categories as the young heiress with song-and-dance aspirations. Gordon MacRae also gets plenty of opportunities to indulge in the talent which first brought him fame and the idolatry of bobby-soxers crooning. Gene Nelson, Broadwav dancer who is rapidly reaching the heights on the screen as an up-and-coming hoofer, has a field day as the dancing star of the show within a show. Another Broadway recruit, Patrice Wymore, sing*, dances and undulates in a sull try African dance number. For the comic angles, there is Eve Arden tossing off quips , in her inimitable manner; S.
