When she moved to New York she took her draperies with her, because she said she couldn't part with the skirts and they looked so well together. Of course the stars' at-home clothes aren't always an exact fabric match with their draperies or furniture coverings. They are just a blend of the background with identical patterns in the material. Three different skirts might coordinate the colors of one room. Some people do like skirts made of the same material that is used in the room decoration. For example, I had a skirt that matched a chair. When a hole was burned in the chair covering I simply cut up the skirt and mended it. I had another skirt that I wore for two years and then I covered a love-seat with it. It's fun to blend the colors of your clothes with the colors in your home. It May Surprise You to know that most of the stars prefer to do all their entertaining at home. Their surroundings might be luxurious but they like to live simply within them. That calls for the comfort of casual California clothes. And for that, the Tea Cozy has proved itself perfect. It is comfortable as well as alluring. It is just as suitable for special occasions. I wear them to cocktail parties, to the theatre and for business. * * * Give It Swing and the movement of the circular skirt is utterly feminine. It has something that tightly glued on clothes don't have. Perhaps it's a bit of mystery as to where you begin and end. Anyway men like their graceful effect. They're real charmers — and fun, too.

Ginger takes over in big dramatic role, but is gosh-awful. Fred, who hasn't stopped loving her, realizes her bad acting is due to bad directing and starts correcting that difficulty in a manner which almost backfires. Lots of good music, good dancing and above all, it brings the Rogers-Astaire team back to the screen. The Set-Up RKO ANOTHER side of the fight game is presented in this short but starkly realistic account of 71 minutes in the life of prizefighter Robert Ryan. There's none of the Madison Square Garden glamour, or even the clean-cut athletes you usually see in a film of this type. Good sportsmanship, fair play and human dignity are just so many words when it comes to club fighters — men who get beaten and mauled for a few bucks a fight. The dirt, ugliness and third-rate living are what Audrey Totter wants her fighter-husband Ryan to get away from. But Ryan is still looking for the fight — the one which will give him enough to retire from the ring. Ryan's manager, George Tobias, knows his 35-year-old "boy" is about finished and, believing he'll lose the fight anyway, takes a $50 bribe from gambler Alan Baxter to have Ryan throw the fight. Tobias doesn't tell Ryan about the deal, but as the fight progresses and his opponent keeps telling him to take a dive, Ryan realizes the fight has been fixed. Anger outweighs his fear of Baxter and he smashes his way to victory, thereby putting the final kayo on his boxing days. One Woman's Story V 'niter gal-International Release TVTHEN a woman sacrifices love for W wealth and position, it follows that she's brewing herself a nice emotional stew. Ann Todd, using selfishness as the main ingredient, also embroils her husband, Claude Rains, and her lover, Trevor Howard, until the stew runs over and just about engulfs her. All this happens when, during a business trip of her husband's, Ann resumes her romance with Trevor, who thinks she'll divorce Rains and marry him. When Rains discovers what has been going on, there's a fierce showdown. Ann swallows her pride and again chooses to keep the more solid investment of Wealth rather than love. The lovers see each other years later, and though the meeting is innocent, circumstantial evidence causes Rains to name Trevor, now happily married and a father, as correspondent in his divorce action against Ann. To her mind, there is only one way to spare the man she once loved from scandal and the ruination of his happy marriage, but Rains, still in love with Ann, effects a much easier conclusion to the story. Definitely much too sophisticated for children. The Window RKO THERE once was a little boy, Bobby Driscoll, whose strong imagination caused him to tell whopping stories. His parents, Arthur Kennedy and Barbara Hale, were plain ordinary people who were distressed by their son's talent — especially when one morning he came out with a nifty having to do with the couple up stairs, Paul Stewart and Ruth Roman. This time Bobby outdid himself by saying he saw the couple kill a man. Had he been a nice truthful young man, maybe his parents would have believed him, but they didn't. Nor did the police, when he told them the story. Word of Bobby's tall tale finally reached the couple upstairs, and suprisingly enough, they believed him. Then one night, when both Bobby's parents were out and he was locked in the apartment, the couple had a chance to talk to him, and the way they decided to end Bobby's story-telling is Do you want lovelier. firmer breasts?
