“TUESDAY EVENING, APRIL 12, 1921° “THE SCOFFER” AT THE REX THURSDAY AND FRIDAY " Talking of great casts or char- ‘acters, Allan Dwan has scored scme- thing of a notable achievement in the assembly of Anfists he has made for his production. of ‘“The ‘Scoffer,” which will be the film feature at' the | ‘Rex theater Thursday. Among the noted pheteplayers playing important parts.in this successful screen drama : Mary Thursman, James Kirk- ‘wood, Philo McCullough, Rhea Mit- chell, Noah Beery, Eugenie Besserer, ‘Ward Crane, John Burton, Georgie Stohe and Bernard Durning. LONE “KILLER” DOG WHIPS WOLF PACK INTO PANIC One of the most thrilling scenes in “Kazan’, the famous James Oliver Curwood story which will be screened. at the Rex, is the race for life of a man and woman with a dog team over the snows of a Canadian woodland and their subsequent battle with a pack of wolves. Kazan, a wolf-dog, ‘heads this pack, and when he recog- .nizes the woman who, has befriended him he turns on his companions and scatter them. In this fight all the pack-logs are killed together with several of the attacking wolves. Jane Novak, star of the production, is the woman and ‘Ben Deely, in the male lead, is the man. During this skirm- ish Deely was slightly hurt and the. resumption of production was delayed for a day while he recuperated. Bert- ram Bracken directed this production, which is declared to be one.of the most gripping picturizations of any of the Curwood storles. Others in the cast are Willlam Ryno, Ben Haggerty, and Bdwin Wallock. A big wolt-dog was used for the part of Kazan. THREE DANCING BELLES IN VAUDEVILLE AT GRAND ‘This week’s vaudeville bill on Fri- ‘day only at the Grand theater will introduce the - “Three - Dancing Belles,” three youthful girls.

As in the case of many light stories of its kind, - & great deal of them left to the direct- or's. skill of treatment, It thus hap- pens that a large proportion of am- usement value in “Just Out'of Col- “JUST 0 rlege” ‘has . been provided by the! craftsmanship of director Al Green. “This is especially true of the many land varied methods of showing how {established in " public ifavor by the |constant presentation of a well-se-! jlected name. The very nature of the story im- ! poses most of the comedy interpret. tion upon Gecrge Hernandez as-t! keen old business man who finds'him self discomforted by a couspiracy youth and love. - He is admirable i the role, the natural lead of an excel- lent cast. , The Goldwyn production, as shown: to a crowded house at the Capitol theater,” affords generally pleasing ‘entertainment. “Just Out of College” will be shown tomorrow and Thursday at thg Grand theater.

The club voted to again change their date of meeting from the first Wednesday in the month to the fourth Thursday.
