We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.

Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.

December 1930 31 ♦ IS SHE THE COMING GREAT STAR? NANCY CARROLL seems to have everything— beauty, youth, charm, acting ability and luck, three years ago, totally unknown, she was selected to play the Irish Rose of the famous Abie. She clicked. She did several unimportant pictures. Came talkies. She clicked again. More unimnorrant pictures and then "The Devil's Holiday," a small production that Nancy made great by her performance. Now she's created the miracle again in "Laughter." Watch this girl. She's showing more promise than any girl on the screen.
