When a man gets a crush on Rita Hayworth, he is sometimes in danger of carrying the thing too far. Twice-married Crooner Dick Haymes, 34, was in trouble with the U.S. Immigration Department because he followed thrice-married Rita to Hawaii last May. Possible punishment: deportation. A "neutral alien," born in Argentina (of Scottish-Irish parents), Haymes entered the U.S. in 1937. He forfeited his right to U.S. citizenship in 1944, the Government said, by claiming exemption from the draft, and thus re-entered the country illegally when he returned from his romantic pursuit of the rollicking Rita...
...Last Farthing. In Sheffield, England, Steuart Davis admitted to a judge that he had spent the last $20,000 of his fortune in seven months and turned to street cleaning to thwart his wife's am-Dition to get alimony, added: "She's no Rita Hayworth...

Now that she has so deftly gone through the motions in contemporary drama, her next picture should be a change of pace--perhaps a story from the Bible...
...been directed with a ponderous touch by William Dieterle. Chewing at the Technicolor scenery are Charles Laughton as a fat, licentious Herod, Judith Anderson as an evilly scheming Herodias, Alan Badel as a weirdly wild-eyed John the Baptist, and Stewart Granger as an intrepid Roman commander. Actress Hayworth does her best in the dance of the seven veils. With choreography by Valerie Bettis, Rita is the very picture of a Galilean glamour girl in an off-the-shoulder gown by Jean Louis hairdo by Helen Hunt, and make-up by Clay Campbell. She wriggles, writhes and undulates through this...
