JUNEAU——ALASKA——DOUGLAS There is no substitute for Newspaper Advertising THE DAILY BREEN FIGHTS WAY THROUGH TROUBLES IN LATEST PICTURE Sacrifice, the love of a widowed | mather for whom he runs from home in order to earn money, and excit- ing adventure compose the mixture of entertainment values to be seen in “Breaking the Ice,” the newest Bobby Breen musical romance, showing at the Capital Theatre. In this most ambitious picture in the career of the 11-year-old sing- | Ing-star of radio and screen, youthful Bobby plays an adventur- ous lad—a two-fisted fighter who elbows his way into tight spots, and emerges singing and triumphant. The plot concerns Bobby's effort to raise sufficient money with which to send his widowed mother to the man she wants to marry. In addition, this most costly of all the Bobby Breen vehicles fea- tures as an additional six-year-old Irene Dare, sensation- al baby ice-skater, in an ice fan- tasy budgeted at $100,000. “Breaking the Ice” has an excep- tionally strong supperting cast, headed by Charlie Ruggles, in the role of an unscrupulous antique dealer, and Dolgres Costello as Bobby's mmhet DANCE SCHOOL.
