vol. 30, No. 25 Universal Weekly a Like It Anywhere! hear that familiar voice! How they grin and laugh when McNamee injects into his talk some of those little human touches which have made him the outstanding man of radio! They DID want him to make good on this new job of his, and when he not only made good but went away beyond their hopes, they were tickled to pieces! If you have not booked the Universal Talking Reporter newsreel, you are — to put it plainly — behind the times. Remember, this is the only sound newsreel in which you get the amazing speed of the best silent newsreel plus the sound effects and the vivid word of mouth description by McNamee. We don’t give you subjects from the back sections of a Sunday newspaper supplement. We give you the live, red-hot news right on the heels of its actual occurrence. The best, smartest and biggest theatres in the world are going to feature Universal’s Talking Reporter and Graham McNamee. How about you? Can you possibly be satisfied with anything but the very best?
