Jean Harlow. William Powell. Myrna Loy. Spencer Tracy--all in one picture! There's a collection of outstanding film nämes, each of which is capable of ruling a mo- tion picture cast in his and her own right. Only once in a movie moon is such a stellar aggregation of stars gathered together for one production. Metro-Goldwyn Mayer has assembled them for its production of "Libeled Lady," the new season "special" which is showing at the King's Theatre to- day.

The story presents not only a cross-tangle of emotional conflicts upon the part of its four foreful protagonists but also reveals a new angle on the newspaper story. "Ita author is Wallace Bullivan, one- time Chicago star reporter. Its screen play is the work of three prominent writers, Maurine Wathins, Howard Emmett Eogers and George Oppenheimer. Its di- rector is Jack Conway.
