AT THE Wild Days of Old West Portrayed in Picture “West of the Pecos,” now showing at the Capitol Theatre, the latest Rich- ard Dix starring vehicle from RKO- Radio studios, has sweep, power and seenic grandeur, and faithfully por- trays the vivid days of the old West. And in addition, Dix has another tailor-made role. The story, from the pen of Zane Grey, shows Dix as Pecos Smith, a two-gun cowboy who was “born under @ covered wagon,” and has never} known any law but that of a clear conscience and a quick draw. | Terrill Lambeth, the girl, played by | Martha Sleeper, is the daughter who Prefers to be the “son” of Colonel Lambeth, 2 Dixie aristocrat impov- erished by the Civil War. When Pecos and the girl met she is a young cowboy helping her father drive a herd of cattle to the Pecos River range. i _ The long, hard trek over the Santa Fe trail, with rivers to be forded, Indians to be fought, hunger and thirst to be suffered, is portrayed with thrilling fidelity. ‘The girl's dis- guise forms the basis for misunder- standings that are laughable at times and tragic at others.

In conjunc- jtion with Zane Grey’s latest thriller, “The Rocky Mountain Mystery.” Much of the interest in this new sereen venture is due to the fact that it is the product not of motion picture men but of a successful group of young editors. Eleven years ago these men founded a new type of news- magazine, “Time.” Their original circulation of 25,000 has grown to more than 500.000. Five years ago they began another magazine, “For- tune,” which despite the depression, has acquired more than 100,000 sub- seribers at $10 a year. Four years ago they began a radio program “The March of Time.” In the National Radio Editor's Poll, conducted by the N. Y. World-Telegram, this was vot- ed the best dramatic program on the air. Now they offer “The March of Time” on the screen. Glass is a liquid in a state of sus- pended animation.
