MICKEY ROONEY
TO STAR IN “A YANK AT ETON." England is in for some excitement. Mickey Rooney is off to the Old Country in a few weeks to star in "A Yank at Eton.” And Mickey is going in real style, too, accompanied by his negro valet, Sylvester,- and a trunk full of everything a young man-about-town should wear. Virginia Weidler, tiny actress, .is going along to share honours with him, and Billie Burke is to have the featured spot. It is amazing the way M.G.M. chooses these old-school-tie pictures, but it is more amazing the way the American movie public eats them up. “Good-bye, Mr Chips,” is .doing record business wherever it is shown, and there could be no more tradition-filled English picture than this.
