...Half the time kidding rah rah stuff, during the other half Rodgers & Hart rove as far from the campus as they please. In Spic & Spanish, dark, Puerto Rican St. Vitus Dancer Diosa Costello does everything but break a leg. In I Didn't Know What Time It Was, charming Marcy Wescott tremulously chalks one up for love. In Give It Back to the Indians, Rodgers & Hart sell short the Manhattan they raised a glass to in the Garrick Gaieties.

Before making Jamaica Inn, she studied at the apprentice school of Dublin's famed Abbey Theatre, did bits on the stage for a short time, bits in pictures. Though she was short on experience, one screen test convinced Actor-Producer Laughton that he should cast Maureen O'Hara in Jamaica Inn. Impressed by her success in that picture, RKO last month signed her to play Esmeralda in their new version of The Hunchback...
