The kid who looks like an angel when he's standing up with Joe and Dave singing in the church choir on a Sunday morning? What about him? Why he makes more trouble for "Ma" than all the rest put together. For it's Mike who gets himself into a canary-colored jockey jacket and climbs aboard Uncle Gus to ride the Beebe entry in the big race. Yes, and has "Ma" reaching for those smelling salts as he gets thrown at the barrier. Nope, when it comes to causing calamity, you can't beat the Beebes, the gol-darndest family in the whole blooming U.S.A. No siree, sir. And you can't beat Paramount and Paramount's ProducerDirector Wesley Ruggles when it comes to whipping up the grandest screen comedy of the year . . . which is, of course, the bounding biography of the brawling, betting, beloved Beebes . . . Paramount's "Sing You Sinners."
Paramount Postscript * „ . // you're wondering why the Beebe biography is called "Sing You Sinners," just wait'll you hear the Beebe Boys sing the new Paramount hits: "Pocketful of Dreams," "Small Fry," "Laugh and Call It Love," and "Don't Let That Moon Get Away."
"You're not the only catfish in the sea." The Beebe Boys give oat with their number, "Small Fry, " as Ma Beebe tells 'em "Sing, You Sinners. "
" You can 't call us Beebes any names like that. "
A quiet afternoon with the Beebes as the family
unites against a very common foe.
ARKANSAS TRAVELER
"PARAMOUNT'S "Arkansas Traveler'." writes Bing Crosby's radio buddy. Bob Burns, "is the story of a very lazy man, which is me. In (act, he's so lazy he makes the ordinary lazy man look like a bundle of nerves. Yet he's got a lot of common sense. For where the hard-workin' feller has it easy on account of when work is offered him all he does is take it, the lazy feller has got to figure ways of gettm' around workin" And that takes a heap of sense. Paramount has handed me Fay Bainter for team-mate in this 'Arkansas Traveler' picture. And you know Fay's just about as fine a gal as there is in pictures. Then they ve gone and handed me another person, you'll be glad to hear about. He's a ringer. He ain't a real picture actor like me. In fact, he used to turn out some pretty fancy writin'. But he's got a face on him that's like my Uncle Snazzy 's. Once you've seen it and recovered from the shock, you'll never forget it as long as you live. His name is Irvin S. Cobb."
"MEN WITH WINGS"
