NOTES SUPPLIED BY THE

THEATHES

The warm-hearted reception given Una Merkel by film fans in her less than two years of sercan work is a tribute that has been hers since she was a girl in her 'tcons. As a young Sunday school teacher in Covington, Kentucky, the young star who appears with Joan Bennett and Spencer Tracy in the Fox. dramatic romance "She Wanted A. Millenniro" opening at the Oriental Theatre to-day, earned the praise, trust and friendship of the parenta of her pupils.

Miss Merkel's role in “She Wanted A Millionaire" which John Blyatone directed from William Anthony Me Guire's screen play is that of a hard- boiled, sophisticated newspaper re- portor and the humourous touch the given to the role is said to be une of the highlights of the picture.

King's at the Theatre. You may enter the picture theatre with the usual heap of cares perched on your shoulder, but you'll discover that

those cares vanish Instantly at Suele's magic touch. There is a something about the picture that! radiates happiness; that makes you feel that life is, after all, real- worth living. It may be the bright music, it may be Jack Hulbart's irresistible fooling for those Scenes in the bear-garden

"Sunshine Sualo" brings to the screen the most captivating of German musical comedy actresses: flas Renate Muller, who sings and acts delightfully, and who han Personality with a capital P. Filmgoers will be hearing much more of this fascinating blonde before very long.

"Cracked Nuts.” "Paris is considered by many the style headquarters of the world But nothing can be further from the truth! This is the opinion of Ethel Smallwood, Radio Pictures' fashion designer under the supervision of Max Ree, art director. "Where a handful of fashionable women ape the etylen of Paris, millions emulate those creat- ed by motion picture costumers. This is because flm styles are carried direct to people in thousands of cities within a month after they are created."

The Intest creations of Miss Smallwood's nimble Angers and brain were those for Dorothy Lee, Leni Stengel and Edna May Oliver in "Cracked Nuls," Radio Pictures showing from Sunday at the Queen's Theatre. They reveal an ultra; modern taste combined with practi- cability and economy, Miss Lee wears three different and distinctive afternoon frocks-blue crope, with embroidered anilor motif; crepe print with brown organdle trimming; and i a nude-coloured pressed chiffon trim- med with lace. She is particularly fetching in green print chiffon worn ! with Maulinssin flower jewellery. 'Ono of her afternoon frocks a old rose | with lace irias, worn with coral jewellery. The vampish Miss Stengel ala is farcinating in widow's weeds of black monianie crepe, white velvet and black fox fur. Her street dress consists of two-tone tan montanie ¦ crepe with gold jewellery. Edna May Oliver is seen in red crepe pyjamaā. and orchid velvet, hand-blocked neg ligee; a green Elizabeth crepe garden! dress and uniform.

"Caught Flastered." "Caught Plastered," RKO Radio's super comedy starring Bert Wheeler, Robert Woolsey and Dorothy Lee, comes. to the Central Theatre to-day, in place of "Night World," which has been delayed. "Caught Plastered" is one of the latest Radio pletures starr- ing this inimitable team of fun- makers. It is an hilarious comedy of their effort to run a drug store successfully, and gives plenty of scope for their natural talents. Bert Wheeler and Dorothy Lee sing their latest song hit "I'm that way about You" in this picture,
