While "It" created all sorts of box office ree- ords, eritics wherever the picture has played, seem to think "Rough House Rosie" has an even brighter futuré before it, As for the story "Rough House Rosie" concerns itself with Ros'e O'Reilly, a belle of Tenth Avenue and, more important, the sweet- heart of Joe Hennessey, self-styled "coming middleweight champion." The plot develops when an amuse- ment park clairvoyant predicts great fame as a dancer for Rosie. To real'ze her ambition, she stages a "boxing ballet" with six pretty girls. Booked into a night club "Rough House Rosie and Her Roughnecks" are a success from the start. Lew McKay, a cafe frequenter, attracted to the girl gives her a diamond pin and---the police arrest her as a hold- er of stolen goods. After a night in jail, Rosie is re- leused when McKay confesses and Arthur Russell, owner of the jew- clry refuses to press charges. He cffers to take her home in his car and they leave just as Joe arrives with bail money. Flattered by Rus- gell"s. evident love and impressed by his wealth, Rosie soon finds her- self forgetting Joe and no one real- izes this more than Joe himself. A vank of etiquette proving useless, he tries being a caveman but dis- covers this doesn't work as Rosie hits him on the jaw and he falls to the floor unconscious.
