"WHOOPEE" GREATEST
 OF ZIECFELD SHOWS
Elaborate Cinema Entertainment With Hundreds of Beauties and
 Eddie Cantor

One of the great events of the picture year comes to the Bradley theatre on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday when "Whoopee", the Samuel Goldwyn-Florenz Ziegfeld musical riot, starring Eddie Cantor, makes it's appearance in Putnam. This famous pair of producers. kings of the screen and the stage respec- lively. have exhausted every angle of their art to make "Whoopee' memorable.
 The cost of the production, orig inally estimated at million and a half dollars, was nearer the two mil lion mark, when shooting was com pleted. The filming called for sew enty-four changes of scene, many of them taken in such world-famous natural beauty spots as Zion Ma tional Park, 512 changes of costume and scenes including four and five hundred people.
 The entire Goldwyn and Ziegfeld staffs were combined to make "Whoopee" technically perfect, with Thornton Freeland. young and bril- liant Hollywood director, in charge of the filming. In "Whoopee" a great stage success becomes one of the pic lures that make history.
