The dearth of good screen productions in Hub theatres, which has been rather noticeable these past few weeks, seems destined to continue a while longer, at least as far as the Metropolitan is concerned. "Someone to Love," the Publix offering which opened yesterday, may perhaps be best described by the term naive.
William Shelby, acted by Charles "Buddy" Rogers, imaginative, alert, and determined clerk in a high class music store, falls in love with one who is heir to $20,000,000, Mary Brian, who, of course, does not object to him.
