    Soaking Up Local Color
    At the Globe Broadcasting Company, radio station "idea man" Harry Jans and former school chum Harold Whalen are assigned to broadcast from a tropical island. They bring members of a population of prehistoric "Wild People" to the microphone for songs and banter. After a couple of brief solos, the comedy team is joined by the "M.G.M. Dancing Girls" for a dance clad in cheeky costumes with bone necklaces and orange Afro wigs. Everyone is sure the musical is a big success, but a surprise ending limits the show's audience. "A Colortone Musical," this was, "Photographed by Technicolor Process."

    **** Wild People (1932) Ray McCarey ~ Harry Jans, Harold Whalen, Joyzelle Joyner, Eddie Baker
