AVON
“WITHOUT LOVE” An outstanding cast, headed by Spencer Tracy and Katharine Hepburn, and including such comedy experts as Lucille Ball, Keenan Wynn, and Felix Bressart, has been brought together by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer to provide one of the brightest comedies yet produced, “Without Love,” which will open at the Avon Theatre to-day. Based on the play by Philip Barry, the new attraction is the story of a scientist-inventor (Tracy) and a girl (Miss Hepburn), both of whom shun love. Each has different reasons for rejecting love. Tracy, employed by the Government to perfect a new high-altitude oxygen mask for flyers, soon finds that Miss Hepburn can be of great assistance to him, and they decide to marry “without love.” The resulting sequence of events involve Miss Ball as Miss Hepburn’s business manager, Keenan as her “not-too-sober” cousin, and Bressart as a science professor, and the picture eventually reaches a hilarious climax.
