From an ad to entice tourists to visit Universal City:
Did you ever see Cleo Madison's tears? Jupiter Pluvius, but they're wet and big and slippery. She cried 8 minutes and 9 seconds in Damon and Pythias. The best previous record was 6 minutes and 4 seconds, held by Olga Nethersole in Camile. When Cleo Madison cries, it's hard to keep the rest of the cast from crying-she's that affecting'. Anyway, she's one of UNIVERSAL'S great screen favorites and draws like a fresh mustard plaster. If you're out in California this season, drop down to UNIVERSAL CITY and see Cleo Madison cry.
