...have seen the picture on this page before, although it never actually appeared on a TIME cover. It was a movie prop used in the film A Woman of Distinction, in which Rosalind Russell played the part of a college dean of women. After finishing the movie, she had the make-believe-cover painting framed, and hung it in the lounge of the bathhouse beside her swimming pool in Beverly Hills. When friends would drop in and remark, "Oh. I didn't know you were on TIME'S cover," she would answer casually "Sure, look, there...

...saga of the Sherwood sisters from Columbus, Ohio and their misadventures in a Greenwich Village basement with a past should be pretty well known by now. Certainly it is to Rosalind Russell who to creates her old role as the protective elder sister. A charmingly casual comedienne. Miss Russell plays the long suffering Ruth with lump angularity and delivers the play's best lines with superb timing. She is also more than adequate to the musical demands of Wonderful Town, meeting them with a surprisingly strong voice and high good humon. When a song is clearly out of her range...
