It is said to be the real story, the story the headlines have never re- vealed.
 The picture opens with Joan But terfield, played by Virginia Bruce, '"The richest girl in the world" de- camping with her grandfather'S yacht and cutting loose to New York freedom and adventure bound.

 THOMAS MITCHELL: "Yes, I'm a drunken doctor all through Stage Coach and I deliver baby under trying conditions, but the character ization is different from the doctor in 'Hurricane.' This picture is really a Grand Hotel on wheels"
 BOB HOPE: q think somebody must have let Mack Sennett in when they were writing Never Say Die. First Alan Mowbray smears orange marmalade all over my face, then Martha Rave hits me in the eye with & pot of soft butter. The only good thing about this scene is that I don't care what they do next. There's nothing worse left to do."
 DOROTHY LEE: "It's grand to be working in pictures again, espe- cially with Richard Dix. But I don't intend to make Hollywood my permanent home. AS soon as fin ish '12 Crowded Hours I'm going back to Chicago. Oh yes, I'll be back for more, hope"

ment of high school student trans

cause of the fact that the districts

the high school paid 81 flat pei
