New YORK has accepted Mae’s invitation to “come up ana see me sometime . . . anytime , and is crowding the Paramount Theatre at breakfast time to see Paramount's “I’m No Angel’’.

This session commences at 9 a.m., but long before that hour the queues are forming with near-by enterprising drug stores supplying stools and breakfast trays to those early morning picture-goers.
