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.
after!" He shouts, sitting up in bed with surprising briskness and grabbing the relieved Virginia in his arms.
This is not only the first scene in the picture, it is also the first day of shooting and it is likewise Virginia's birthday. And just as the scene is finished a cart is wheeled on to the set with a big cake on it with "Happy Birthday, Virginia" spelled out in icing. "You must stay and have a piece of birthday cake," she urges but I don't feel much like birthday cake at 10.00 o'clock in the morning so I tell her I'll be back later and off I go toUniversal
WE LIKEWISE find only one picture shooting out here, but it should be a pip. It's called "Little Tough Guys in Society," although you can bet your chances of a seat in heaven to a plugged nickel the title will be changed. At the head of the cast are Mary Boland, Mischa Auer, Edward Everett Horton and Jackie Searl, who is one of the very best of the kid actors. There are also the six little tough guys— Frankie Thomas, David Gorcey (a brother of Leo "Spit" Gorcey, one of the "Dead End" kids), Harris Berger. William Benedict, Hally Chester and Charles Duncan.
Jackie is the spoiled son of rich Mary Boland. He is cynical and sophisticated far beyond his years. And he has a perfect solution for the complexities of modern life. He simply spends the whole day in bed, where life can't touch him. Mischa is a

cracked psychiatrist and when Mary calls him in to diagnose Jackie, he says Jackie is a sad example of over-privileged youth. As an antidote, to establish normal balance, he prescribes association with a group of under-privileged boys. So Mary phoned an east-side settlement house to invite "underprivileged" youths for a month's visit and just as she is in the midst of entertaining at a garden party, a truck drives up and the six little tough guys pile out.
"Lafayette, here we come!' Mr. Gorcey bellows as he tumbled out.
"Hi-ya folks?" Mr. Berger greets
the
guests.
"Nice place you got here," Mr. Benedict remarks, casting an appraising eye over the grounds. "Looks like a park."
"Who are you? What are you doing here?" Mr. Eddie Horton, the butler, demands, as he bustles up seething with rage.
"Look!" chortles Mr. Benedict, taking in Mr. Horton's frock coat. "They keep their own undertaker on the place."
"Aw, he ain't an undertaker, he's a waiter!" Mr. Chester explains contemptuously.
And that's where the fun begins. The sad part of it is that I can't wait to see the fun because it's going to last three or four weeks while the picture is shooting. But I'll be having fun in my own quiet way, provided I first get out to—
