Her name, for the purpose of the amazing case history now reported by the two psychiatrists in The Three Faces of Eve (McGraw-Hill: $4.50), is Eve White.

Stewart seems too much like a morose Henry Aldrich. And in the same way, his mother, Irene Hervey, never become a real individual; she is always the doting and misguided parent. Beyerly Lawrence, however, does quite well in the confusing part of the mother's friend; it is a fuzzy hole because the script never adequately explains why she let herself be picked up in the first place.
