“Waits, Wins” (Los Angeles Record, November 30, 1931)

Adrienne Dore is one beauty contest winner who did more than look beautiful. At 15, when most girls are just out of pig-tails, Adrienne was elected “Miss Los Angeles”.

Then she placed second in a “Miss America” contest. Now, at 21, after waiting and watching her chances, she has made the grade in the movies.

“Maybe I’m snooty,” she says, “but I knew what I wanted and waited until I got it.”

Warner Brothers has just signed her for a five-year contract. When you think of all the beauty contest winners who failed to crash screendom’s golden gates you’ll realize that Adrienne is really a rare creature.
