Spot the blonde actress


I remember seeing the movie years ago and there was a scene where Jerry paints faces and puts little dresses on the knees of a young blonde actress in one scene. The actress bared a slight resemblance to Anne Bancroft. Is this correct?

Just saw it a little more than two hours into a 2:20 broadcast (with breaks) on Movies! - a digital broadcast TV subchannel, on cable in some places. The girl is sitting at a table wearing a frilly dress and a bonnet and holding two rag dolls. It is the middle of a musical number. They stand her up and Jerry and Dean each paint a face on one of her knees. Then they attach the dolls to her legs so her knees are the dolls' faces. Then she dances a little. I agree she resembles Anne Bancroft. In the full credits there are 17 people listed as "Dancer (uncredited)", two are named Pat and one Jack. There are two listed as "Girl (uncredited)" and two as "Little girl (uncredited)" - she was dressed as a little girl. Then there is "Zuba girl (uncredited)" - didn't watch the whole film, not sure what that means!
