OPERA HOUSE
“DANCE, GIRL, DANCE." Lucille Ball, a welcome appearance in “Dance, Girl Dance,” the R.K.O. film now screening at the Ooera House. She makes excellent play in an excellent part which is well set-off by the contrast of Maureen O'Hara's gentle, almost wistful apappearances. Judy (Maureen O'Hara) and Bubbles (Lucille Ball) are memoers of a dancing team in search of work. Judy's lode-star is the ballet, for which she has trained hard, and to the exclusion of almost everything else but the need te make a Jiving. Bubbles' is just as direct, but more in the short-term class—she wants a "good time,” and she wants it now. even if she has to marry some rich man to get it. In the small-time halls where the girls stand the best chance of engagement, Judy's classic style is a drug on the market, whereas Bubbles’ slap-dash, free-and-easy burlesque is just what is wanted. She gets a job through “influence," and makes such a success of her music-hall turn that her salary goes up and up. To-morrow's Change. "Charlie Chan's Murder Cruise," with Sydney Toler, will be screened at the Opera House when the programme is changed to-morrow.
