my grandads brother was once a star

I think l've put this up before, but never mind.  Amongst old items from my grandfather after he die was these scraps, featuring his brother winning a singing competition at Los Angeles Hippodrome, featured in the News of the World. It was the first any of us new about it as we never knew his brother, so assume he must have lived in America.  I will have to delve further, as l am now intrigued.
