Voice of Experience
Guy Lafayette Wonders, book
ing chief at the Earle, will try
noble experiment at that theater
the week of July 6. His headliner
will be the "Voice of Experience"
a radio philosopher who is widely
known to network listeners, but
comnaratively unknown to the
variety audiences. It will be a
test Of radios box office pulling
power.
At that, the man known as the
''Voice of Experience" can prob
ably handle himself well on the
stage. I am assured by Wally
Decker, his nimble press agent,
that the radio celebrity has been
on the lecture platform for II
years, during which time 1000.
900 Americans have paid to hear
him.
"The Voice" debated often with
William Jennings Bryan and
Judge Ben Lindsey, Arthur Bris-
bane and the laconic Will Rogers
have paid tribute to his sagacity
and platform cunning.
For his act at the Earle. the
Voice Of Experience will answer
questions. He is not a Sooth-
sayer or second sight artist. In
stead he concerns himself with
the problems of humanity with
particular concern to love and
marriage. He claims to have an
swered more than 100000
queries from radio listeners. If
you care to get a preliminary idea
Of his work the radio will furnish
it for he is on the Columbia net
work seven times a week.
The Earle engagement will be
his first vaudeville date since he
became an air celebrity.

A Family Move
Marion Davies latest picture
bids fair to be one Of 1934'S box
office bonanzas. It opened to
phenomenal business at Loew'S
Penn Theater in Pittsburgh where
Mike Cullen is managing director,
and at the Earle Theater in Phila-
delphia is running away ahead OF
average takingS.
Exhibitors trace the popularity
of Operator 13" to the fact that
the war between the States has
been Singularly neglected by
Hollywood while the World War
as O story theme has been sadly
overdone. Another factor is that
the Marion Davies feature IS
rated ideal as a family movie and
certain to be popular in the neigh
boHhood houses.

campaign platform Jennings align
ed himself with the modern trend
of political thought that has de-
veloped since the New Deal of
President Roosevelt went into ef-

millions of our fellow citizens are
doomed to find themselves perm
anently consigned to the ranks Of
the unemployed with it's train OF
tragic consequences, destructive
both of the happiness of the in

ton"
He asserted that he would advo-

for the distribution of equal bene-

posed to the pyramiding of wealth

that the citizens of this country
are entitled to an equal share in
the abundant comforts and luxuries
which this nation affords.
