Bob Crosby Is A Star
926 Mass. St.

HOLLYWOOD (UP).—Bob Crosby has been doing fine on his own for a long time now but people have a hard time forgetting he is Bing's brother.
Possibly he should have changed his name some time ago. Few people have any difficulty recognizing him as Bing's brother. Their voices are similar. So are their gaits, which are almost invariably unhurried.
"Actin' is kinda easy," said Bob at Republic Studios. "The writers make up your troubles, the director tells you how to act, and you just do as you're told.
"That part is okay. But I wish people wouldn't think I'm getting my movie breaks on account of being Bing's brother. I've tried to do things on my own all my life."
Bob, dark-haired and good looking, seems well established in the picture business after a successful career as an orchestra leader. He made one picture for RKO, "Let's Make Music," then was signed by
Forget about Bing
Bob worked for Weeks for a while, then joined the Dorsey brothers as a member of their band. About six months later he organized an orchestra of his own, Bob Crosby's Bobeats. He and his 'Cats toured the country for three years before receiving the offer which brought them to Hollywood.
All his efforts so far have been successful and it, seems likely that Bob will be working at Republic for some time.
Bob studied music and law at Gonzaga University in Washington, and once worked as a singer at a walkathon show. Anson Weeks heard him during a broadcast and offered him a job.
In his first picture Bob played an orchestra leader—himself. In the second he went collegiate, and in "Rookies on Parade" his part is that of a song writer.
Republic Studies for "Sis Hopkins." His work on that film was good enough to get him a starring role in "Rookies on Parade," a draft camp comedy.
