NEWS OF THE THEATRES SUNDAY: “G0 AND GET IT” . Classics have been written about newspaper work. They Have -been classics of action but hive failed 'to reflect the actual atiifosphére of’ a newspaper office. Plays have fbeen based upon the romances which" are daily happening in the “game” ‘of gathering - and = disseminating .. the news glving a correct impre. fon due tq__he_ Jimftations of the . speaking stdge. Now Marshal Neilan, the modern picture director, has braved the satirical . criticism which the news- papermen heap upon those who,’;é er an incorrect depiction of their ‘craft, by producing a picture founded en- tirely upon the gathering of all the news connected with one of the most, startling events which ever took place, in a small city. X “Go And Get It” is the title he has given to it. It is released through First National. It is the instructions which the city editor gives to the reporter who unravels the mystery that has balked the police. It.is not a fantastic idea for a newspaperman to accomplish sueh a thing. In the recent Elwell murder mystery in New York City, the work of a news- paperman in finding a valuable wit- .pess in Ireland after two weeks’ search gave the officials new light upon the matter which caused them to change entirely the theories they had formed after a month’s investiga- on. «/Pat O'Malley, the youthful screen star has given picture fans the sur- prise of their life in his stunt work in Marshall Neilan’s latest photo- . play, “Go And Get It.”” In this start- ling drama of newspaper life which the First National is releasing, O’Malley performs almost .impossible feats of daring.. . In the case 'of “Go And Get It which has .its, first local shdwing at the Rex on-Sundlay will be seen Agnes Ayres, Wesley Barrey and Pat O’'Mal- ley. - “Go-'And Get-It” marks the third independent production of Mar- shall Neilan’s gnder his history mak- ing contract with Associated First National pictures. His two former euccesses have been ‘The River’s End,” and “Don’t Ever Marry.” “Go And Get It” is said to eclipse his pre- vious efforts. REX THEATRE TODAY .Cast ‘The Unknown Ranger. Chandler. ... ..

A iWilliam Russell has the role of Big Jim O'Kane, boss of a lumber- jack camp. The story which is by Julius G. Furthman, tells what hap: pened to Big Jim and the girl he loved when he “got in wrong” with the sheriff.

Trees grow- ing 200 feet high in the Redwoods, and to walk the forest paths is like walking in the naves of great cath- edrals. Clyde de Vinna is respon- sible for the photography. Support- ing Mr. Russell are Eileen Percy, a very attractive actress who has since ‘become a Fox star; Frank Brownlee and Lon Poff. "Emmett J. Flynn di- rected the picture. WM. S.
