Biff and Babs ... Too Cute.

 Sally Starr (Sarah Kathryn Sturm) co-starred with Bob Montgomery in So This is College (1929).  Born January 23, 1909, in Pittsburgh, PA, Sally was briefly promoted by MGM, but her career would consist primarily of short films until its end in 1938.  There were just too many perky starlets in Hollywood.  


"Here is the interior of the Angeleno, the world's record non-stop plane after it had been in the air for more than a week.  The pilots Loren W. Mendell and Pete Reinhart had no use for the necktie, which is shown by Sally Starr, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer actress."

Yes, Robert Montgomery Wasn't the Only Person in the Movie

This is Sally Starr and Phyllis Crane.  Sally plays Babs Babcock, the girl all the boys fight over, and Phyllis is Babs' best friend Betty.  The write-up on the back names their movie as "Happy Days".

Elliot Nugent portrays Eddie, Biff's best buddy.  (Biff is you know who!)   For this photo, the movie is referred to as "College Days".

I am glad they finally chose So This is College.  Much better title.
