ENTERTAINMENTS

“WEEK ENDS ONLY," MAJESTIC. TO=NIGHT Something new in entertainment is offered ' to-night at the Majestic Theatre with the opening of Joan Bennett’s latest Fox Films vehicle, “Week Ends Only.” It is the story of a society debutante who suddenly finds herself fatherless and penniless. In dire need of a job, she secures a-novel one and blossoms out as a "week-end girl,” paid handsomely by bored hosts and hostesses' to supervise and entertain guests at weekend functions. The job, in turn, leads to the somewhat embarrassing attentions of a millionaire who engages' her services for tbe season, on "week-ends only,” in the hope of eventually persuading her to accept his proposals of love. Meanwhile the girl has fallen in love with an ambitious young art student, living in the same Greenwich Village apartment house. The result of this conflict is said to come to an exciting climax that balances the gay comedy of the earlier scenes. Miss' Bennett is said' to score notably as the distracted heroine, while Ben Lyon as tbe artist and John Halliday as the millionaire head the supporting cast. Halliwell Hobbes, Allan Dinebart, John Arledge and Bevton Churchill have prominent roles.
