PARAMOUNT THEATRE - Tossing a taunt to organized out- lawry, stealing a beautiful girl from under the very nose of a bandid gang, George O'Brien is said to make every- one’s ideal of manhood come true in the new Fox filmization of Zane Grey’s popular novel, “The Rainbow Trail,” at the Paramount theatre. Laid in a section of the old West where corruption was as deeply in- trenched as it is in our cities today, the new film is said to teach a much needed lesson to member sof the present generation. The one way to break up organized outlawry ‘is to send in some man who is strong enough to break it up. Reported to be packed with alter- nating heart-throbs, thrills and laughs, “The Rainbow Trail” is en- acted by a notable cast which in ad- dition to O'Brien includes Cecilia Parker, Mirina Gombell, Roscoe Ates, James Kirkwood and J. M. Kerrigan, W. L. Thorne, Niles Welch, Laska Winters, Robert Frazer, Alice Ward and Edward Hearn. David Howard directed from Barry Connor's and Phillip Klein’s adaptations of Zane Grey's widely read novel. Preparing Program For Bicentennial Grand Forks, N.
