Bernardine Flynn, Carl Kroenke and the 9 year old --- Betty White!

Taking a break from working right now to do some fun research (something I love and haven't really gotten to do in a while.)

I came across a show from the very early (pre-Vic and Sade) days... called "Empire Builders" (1931)

Bernardine Flynn was a part of the show, although she wasn't the star.   Here's a segment available with her in it. (You must have RealPlayer)

The baby is young Betty White - yes, that Betty White!  She was 9 years old at the time, I believe.  The conductor is the familiar voice - I'm sure (or almost sure) - of Carl Kroenke - who would play Chuck Brainfeeble years later.

Flynn, as you hear, sounds NOTHING like the Flynn we know!
