A Popular Indoor Leave it to Earl Carroll! At his Theatre-Restaurant in Hollywood, he nightly presents a gay and hilarious number called, "Who'll Lace Her Corset?" Guests are asked to lace Jean Tighe's corset. As it's a rendezvous for celebrities, there's scarcely a night goes by without some well known male star being called up, usually much to his embarrassment, and asked to lace the shapely Jean. It's all in good fun and the stars are always good sports about entering into the merriment. On this page you see Jimmy Stewart and Harry Ritz trying their hand at it; Charles Winninger becoming quite entangled; Edward Arnold considerably determined; and Billy Gilbert and Hugh Herbert succeeding very well. On the opposite page Producer Gene Markey and Ty Power seem to be making a dance out of it; Henry Fonda and Walter Pidgeon go about it in workmanlike fashion; Jack Oakie and Cesar Romero try their darndest; and Billy Gilbert and Edgar Bergen convulse comely Jean Tighe. Lacing the Girl in the Corset at Earl Carroll's Theatre-Restaurant has become quite the pastime! 64 Silver Screen
