WHAT HAPPENS WHEN a man thinks so much of his business that he neglects the little woman to the extent that she is ready to divorce him is the story of “Skylark,” a delightful comedy that will be shown at the Irving tomorrow through Sunday. Good-looking Ray Milland is the big business executive who gets so wrapped up in his work that he forgets he has a wife, who in this case happens to be attractive mn Claudette Colbert.

— She's Shot Elks
MISS SKINNER, you may know, is somewhat of a linguist. In fact, she’s quite a linguist. Lately she has been delving into Russian for no other reason than that she just wants to learn it—there are no subversive reasons, she'll have you know. Now it develops that Mr. Seymour is a native of Russia. And it occured to Miss Skinner that he would be a good one upon | whom to try out some of the sentences she'd been studying in the textbooks. With careful (and perhaps pain- | ful) pronunciation, Miss Skinner informed Mr. Seymour: “I do not shoot bears, but it has happened that I have shot elks.” Mr. Seymour, the report goes, was delighted. He was impressed

with her fluency in such involved statements. One of the expatriate Romanoffs, who happened around, complimented her on speaking his native language “with no accent at all.” Miss Skinner was highly grateful for such compliments, though she had some fears that the latter gentleman may really have meant that she spoke Russian without even a Russian accent. And thus it was that we picked up this little bit of side information on Mr. Seymour, meantime learning something too, about the star of English’'s show tomorrow night. In languages other than Russian, Miss Skinner is much more confident. She can speak French fast enough to keep pace with Lily Pons in a dressing-room conversa-
tion. And we are told she has an |
excellent command of German and
knows enough Spanish, Portugese
and Latin to incorporate them into her solo dramas. As an encore, Miss Skinner is able to say, “it's a nice day” in Chinese. 2 2 2
She's Not Alone
ONE SHOULDN'T, however, get the impression from what has
gone on above that Miss Skinner
is appearing here tomorrow night in one of her solo works. Her vehicle, “Theater,” is a play by Guy Bolton and W. Somerset Maugham, adapted from Mr. Maugham's novel of the same title. It is a full-length play and it takes more than Miss Skinner tec play it. As leading man in the drama about two brilliant English actors who coo in public and fight in private, there will be Arthur Margetson. He is an Englishman and his long experience in the theater has included appearances opposite such international stars as Irene Bordoni, Madge Titheradge, Polly Walker, Tallulah Bankhead, Gladys Cooper and Lenore Ulric. Besides commuting between Shaftesbury Ave. and Broadway, he has played in several motion pictures, both here and abroad. The cast, at least as matters stood during the New York run, also includes Leon Shaw, Viola Roache, Frederick Bradlee, John Moore, J. Colvil Dunn, Helen Flint, Francis Compton, Jane Gordon and Stanley Harrison. Whether there's a linguist among them or not, I really don't know. Perhaps Miss Skinner could answer that.

Cagney Good At Smacking
Puts Punch in Kiss During Clinch With Brenda.
HOLLYWOOD, Jan. 28 (U, P.).— On the set Jimmy Cagney, for the moment a Royal Canadian Air g Force flier, went into a clinch with £ / Brenda Marshall. : s It was quite a clinch. Brenda's hat fell off, After what seemed an unnecessarily long time both came up for air, Brenda looked bewildered. Mr. Cagney had a sort of cat-full-of-canary look. Director Mike Curtiz pleased, too. “It isn’t every man,” he said, “who can deliver a kiss like that. It’s one for the page.” Book? They were doing a scene for “Captains of the Clouds,” a Warner Bros. story of the R. C. A. FP, For once everyone seemed satis fied. Mr. Curtiz had the effect he wanted, and neither Mr. Cagney nor Miss Marshall seemed displeased with the situation. Brenda's husband, Bill Holden, might not have liked it, but then he wasn’t anywhere near. This was the first time Miss Marshall had been photographed in technicolor.
