Triumph For Mary Martin
PARAMOUNT executives are positively puffed up with pride at having won the signature of a young woman called Mary Martin to a contract. About a year ago no studio in Hollywood would have counted Mary a_ capture. M.G.M. in fact, had her among their stock players and let her go-go to Broadway, where she appeared with such success in a musical show that she is generally referred to how as "Mary (‘My Heart Belongs to Daddy’) Martin." Now she’s being brought back in triumph to play opposite Allan Jones in "Victor Herbert." As Paramount declared they wanted a girl who could "sing like Jeanette MacDonald, Lily Pons and Grace Moore and act like Bette Davis" for this part, they certainly believe in Mary.
