...Margaret guessed. Casually she informed Gloria, Wedgewood's bad beauty, that Roger had a nice income and no one to share it with. While Gloria pursued Roger, Margaret took Emily to Maine for a nice holiday. Emily, she insisted, was not well; perhaps her heart was weak. "Our dear old doctor," Margaret told the other vacationers, "suggests adrenalin...
...girls are June Allyson and Gloria DeHaven, the sailor Van Johnson. Miss Allyson's notable contribution is a torrid rendition of "Young Man With A Horn"; Miss DeHaven is sensational as her own good-enough-to-eat, red-headed self; while Johnson chases the gals across the screen often enough to hold the interest of even the most hardened wolf...
Last evening the Cambridge Summer Theatre presented, prior to Broadway, a sophisticated comedy by Harold J. Kennedy entitled "A Goose for the Gander," starring Gloria Swanson and Ralph Forbes.

Noble Patsy (June Allyson) is as reliable as the polestar; spoiled Jean (Gloria De Haven) is as unreliable as a polecat. The sailor (Van Johnson) gives his name as plain John Brown, so it comes as no surprise to learn that he is really John Dyckman Brown III, a democratic multimillionaire. Before the sisters learn his secret he spends a good deal of his fortune sending orchids (signed "Somebody") to flirtatious Jean, much to Patsy's pain...
