COSY THEATRE
TONIGHT'S ATTRACTIONS The final screen of "Always Goodbye" and "Dinner al the Ritz" takes place at the Cosy Theatre this evening. "TELEVISION SPY" AND BABY CONTEST. Dynamic, startling motion picture fare —concerned with the international and romantic problems which will arise with the development of longrange television —will unfold tomorrow on the screen of the Cosy Theatre as Paramount's "Television Soy” is presented to local audiences for the first time. With a featured cast including such grand performers as William Henry, Judith Barrett. William Collier. Snr.. Anthony Quinn and Richard Denning, the picture tells how a courageous and brilliant young scientist tries to keep his perfected plans for long-range television from the hands of enemy powers after a gang of ruthless spies have photographed them. It shows him falling in love with a charming girl via television, across three thousand miles of space, becoming desperately in love with her although he has only seen her on the television screen. William Henry plays the scientist. Judith Barrett the girl. William Collier. Snr., is cast as Henry's wealthy, eccentric backer. The picture was directed by Edward Dmytryk. The further adventures of that merry screen menage, the “Fitches” are recounted in the new Paramount comedy. "Night Work.” the associate feature. With that grand team, Mary Boland and Charlie Ruggles, cast again as the average man-and-wife, the story tells how that attempt to adopt 'Butch' legally, the boy to whom they .gave a home in "Boj’ Trouble.” “Butch.” played again by Donald O'Connor, wants to stay with Miss Boland and Charlie, but a problem arises on the scene in "Butch's” testy, steeplejack grandfather. The filming of the Baby Contest continues for another week.
