Leon- ard, comes to the Grand theatre on Sundny, the. papular Metro star will be supported by a company of play- ers, several of whom have them- selves starred ‘on Broad“ay It is _ without doubt one’ of the strongest “'casts that has ever assembled in motion pictures. Among this distinguished company | is Helen Ware, Vincent ' Coleman, Comtenay Foote, Creighton Hale, Charles Lane and Robert Frazer. Miss Murray herself plays a girl who revolts against the rigidity of her home life, runs off to a bull fight, becomes fascinated by a hand- some toreador and:is involved in a ‘series of stirring adventures, Larry Semon will'also be seen in ‘a special. comedy at the Grand Sun- day. i '“Fascination” is “Peacock Alleys” successor and it outdoes even that picture’s effectiveness. “YELLOW MEN AND GOLD” "AT'ELKO THEATRE TODAY ‘What person with an ounce of red blood in his veins who ‘does not re- cover a youthful thrill: at the tale of a quest for treasure? time thrills have been recaptured and imprisoned for all time on celluloid by Gouverneur Morris in- Goldwyn‘s film version of his story “Yellow Men and Gold” which comes to the ‘Elko theatre for two'days beginning today.

Fight after fight follows in rapid succession, each one-more strenuous and more thrilling than the one pre- ceding it. Chapter 14 of the “Perils of the Yukon” and a comedy will complete the program.

Only the “highjackers” don’t thave to worry about income taxes.

The bootleggerg sped away to a i nearby town, secured revolvers, ‘and then taking a short cut, overtook the* highjackers.” The bootleggers opened fire, killed two of the “high- jackers” and drove the rest into the woods.

Zbyszko got the first fall when he downed the champion in 41 min- utes and 15 seconds with four toe- holds, 2 flying mares and several head and wrist locks.
