“School for Brides” Had a Little.” Marie,” which did a nice piece of theater business at English's, is beginning to come under the heading of industry. It has probably never had ade‘quate recognition from Canadian chambers of commerce for its tuneful portrayal of escapist life in the _ outdoors-frozen, indoors humanly seething life in the great north. Pretty Much Routine

Last night's performance of the Prim! operetta (what I could see of it before having to take off for the Murat) was pretty much routine, It was good to see Nina Olivette and Billy Sully, comic team, back at the old stand. Blanche Chanson, in the title role, had plenty of voice which could be coerced into fortissimo climaxes. Beth Dean, as Wanda, and Victor Carell, as Black Eagle, managed still to convey some of the sinister qualities the story demands. The rest is ensemble and orchestra. And as the years go by, the show seems increasingly to depend on two numbers, “Rose Marie” it~ self, and the chronically recurrent “Indian Love Call” Relaxing and. Lovely A whole essay could be writfen on “Indian Love Call,” with that ulti- " mately infuriating descending chromatic progression—same melodic, deal as in the nauseating “Tumbleweed” song, or “Beautiful Ohio” or even the more famous “Song of India.” Relaxing and lovely, sure, like a hot tub full of tons of water‘softening bath salts. But the two songs sustain “Rose Mare.” So the show is a commentary on taste. Add costumes, some attempt at choreography and the Royal Northwes: Mounted Police, and you have the recipe. ~The show certainly has commercial vitality.

Tyrone Power, Wife, Separate

NEW YORK, Oct. 25 (U. P).~ Screen Star Tyrone Power and his actress wife, Annabella, were staying in separate hotels today. Mr. Power's press agent quoted the actor last night as saying “Our two careers made our marriage impracticable.”

Shooting Begins

A good showman could | be

generous. Xavier Cugat, whose band and stage show did indifferently well in drawing attendance through the rain to the Murat last night, muffs his credit lines. Using a reputedly obsolete souvenir program which we press people

pense account, he mumbled introductions. I still don’t know the name of the girl violinist who layed beautifully enough for the maestro to hasten on with the show, giving her no encore. Having been at English's earlier, I didn't hear the featured male vocalist, reported as being good. I didn't even get his name, and on reviewing advance press books from the Cugat outfit, I learn nothing save

'Forever Amber’

HOLLYWOOD, Oct. 25 (U. P.).— “Forever Amber,” which has suffered as many mishaps as its hero{ine had lovers, starts shooting for {the second time today with an almost entirely new cast. Linda Darnell, now a blond, has taken over the leading role from British Peggy Cummins, while Cornel Wilde, one of the few holdovers, plays her principal playmate. After a year of world-wide ballyhoo 20th Century-Fox started production on the screen version of Kathleen Winsor's novel last March. Thirty-nine days later, a third of the shooting completed, production head Darryl Zanuck ordered the film junked because it was not “up to standard” and suspended production on the $3,000,000 opus.

some irrelevant statements concerning Mr. Cugat. (Would you- ~all like to hear the maestro's recipe for hot-tamale ple?). There are good musicians in the orchestra (that flutist, maybe a Filipino, is really sharp). The total effect in those Latin tunes in swell, as last night's audience enthusiascally acknowledged. “But all this is night-club stuff, not $3.60-top theater material. And #ven the splendid work of Paul and Eva Reyes, dance team, doesn’t make up the deficit. Mr. Cugat has energy and aggressiveness. He has assembled a good band. If he went out of his way to build up his seloists, he'd be a| better showman and, I venture to say, maybe a better businessman.— H. B.
