How he stages a come back, with the aid of a kid wizard of the radio, Darryl Hickman, is the central core around which the hilarious action of “Glamour Boy" revolves. Cooper, according to re- ports, does a swell job. He has come a long way since he first hit the screen in “Our Gang” come dies and then became famous at the age of eight as “Skippy.” Paramount has given a curious twist to the story by making Jackie Iplay a part closely linked with his real history. In the picture he stag- es his comeback after Marathon Pictures has hired him to coach a new Skippy. Scenes from the pic- ture of a decade ago are flashed on the screen and those who have seen “Glamour Boy” say the ef- fect is startling. e MERCHANTS OPEN TOURNAMENT ON ELKS’ CLUB ALLEYS Opening the bowilng season, teams of the Merchants League began their Friday night tournament at the Elks’ alleys last night.
