Kenny Baker Sings In Rialto Musical Hit Opening Today Kenny Baker, whom every radio tan knows and likes, makes his screen debut as a full-fledged movie star, at the Rialto theatre today and to morrow only. He appears In the title role In "Mr. Dodd Takes the Air." story which,1 appropriately enough, deals with a radio singer of Kenny' own type. The firm was adapted from a story "The Great Crooner" by Clar ence Budington Kelland. It ran as a serial in a national weekly, and then was a best-seller In book form. The young crooner has a meaty role as a small-town electrician who suddenly found himself a famous ra dio star all because of a throat op eration. It la said by those who have seen the previews, that Baker makea the most of the role, and is a refresh ing new screen character. Kenny is surrounded by a high- class comedy cast for his movie de but. The always delightful Alice Brady plays a goofy opera singer who pu sues him with matrimony In mind. Frank McHugh Is his audacious and somewhat nutty press agent. Gertrude Michael is a vamp who has mercen ary ambitions toward Kenny. Hia real romantic interest la Jane Wyman, pretty little starlet who la going places in the movies, and Is being groomed for stardom by her studio. Henry O'Neill, Ferris Taylor and Har ry Davenport add to the melee.
