...might please a Watch and Ward investigator to see the lustful Teutons frustrated, but to those of us who have seen "Under Fine" and "Inside the Lines," it is trite and threadbare stuff. Mr. Anspacher, a co-author of the Belgium piece, might better confine himself to writing of unchastened women instead of the chastened kind, and Mr. Marcin, the other co-author, should stick to crook plays. As for Producer Woods, he is doing as well as when he produced "Bertha, the Beautiful Cloak Model," but not much better...

...Fasten the meat scraps and suet securely to the trees and see how eagerly the chickadees and wood-peckers go to it.
