GRAND TONIGHT “Leap to Fame” is the striking title of a delightful new World-Pic- ture'in which Carlyle Blackwell and Evelyn Greeley are starred, and in which these popular stars will--be seen tonight at the Grand theater. The play deals with the present day and thereis-a hint of the world’ war in it, although it does not form the main>‘motive power for the unusual plot. The mystery in the tale will keep everyone guessing: Leap' to Fame” is first class entertaimment. REX- TONIGHT At the Rex theater tonight will be seen winsome Mary Miles Winter in the five-part feature “The Fairy and the- Waif.” Billy"West will-also Day Out.” . “Blue Jeans.” A genuine old fashioned county fair and political rally is shown in “‘Blue-Jeans,” the Metro special pro- duction de luxe, starring winsome Viola Dana, which will be seen at ghe Rex“theater Thursday and -Fri- ay. The members of the ‘“village band” with their antiquated instruments, are led by Miss Dana as June, dress- ed to represent a drum major, baton in hand. When Clifford Bruce, as Ben Boone, the political rival of Perry Bascom, (Robert Walker) be- gins his speech, the little drum major gives the signal for a “blare of music,” to drown his words and give her favorite a better chance. The exhibit hall of an old-fash- ioned county fair is shown, fitted with booths, platforms for the rival dandidates, bandstand, and qider booth, and decorated with American flags, ears of corn and her farm products. With farmers, village belles and awkward country bump- kins, the scene is a most picturesque one, and contributes largely to the quaint effeet of the screen version of Joseph Arthur’s.famous “thriller.” Tonight & Tomerrow ~highly hzmrorojzg‘.zmI s JesseLlosky presents JackPickford in Huck and Tom” 4 or“The Further/ldventuzes of Tom,Sa J ¥y Mark Twain II-" you want’to see ¥ one of the best ' photopfays ever pro=- duced, see this one.
