Description
Photograph was edited for publication purposes.
When Matt G. Glass of Kansas City read in the paper that his daughter, Maxine, USC co-ed, is going to marry Richard Dix, film star, he immediately started a citywide search for a movie showing what his future son-in-law looks like. Imagine Mr. Dix' embararassment if his fiancee's father saw the above love scene. Photograph dated December 30, 1929.
