RADIO REV U E STEIL'HEN. Rudy Vallee's First Leading Lady Anne Franklin [Mrs. Richard O'Connor) Was Recruited from the Ranks of Radio VV7HEN Rudy Vallee was engaged to make his first talking picture, his leading lady was, appropriately enough, recruited from the ranks of radio. Pictured above with her five-year-old son, Jimmie Dick, is Mrs. Richard O'Connor, of Dover, N. J. She is secretary to John W. Elwood, vice-president of the National Broadcasting Company. Under the name of Anne Franklin, she acted opposite Vallee in "Campus Sweet hearts," which was produced by Radio-Keith-Orpheum, in conjunction with the R. C. A. Photophone, at the latter's Gramercy Studios in New York City. This picture recently won for Mrs. O'Connor the first award in a national contest to find the loveliest young mother in America. The judges, who unanimously voted her first place in this contest, were John Barrymore, Cornelius Vanderbilt, Jr. and F. Scott Fitzgerald.
