[ — —a Attractions At Theatres - & 3t | JACKIE COOGAN IS | | SHOWING AT PALACE ; Come on, Jackie! That's the cry that reverberated through the Palace last night, where the youngest star of the movies is appearing in his latest production “Johnny Get Your Hair Cut, race track story by the late Ger- ald Beaumont. Children and grown-ups alika were out of their seats as Jackie astride “Thunderbolt,” came charging down the homestretch— each calling for their fgvorite to win. Then something dreadful happened, and Jackie faltered— but that’s the big surprise in the picture, and it would detract from the entertainment were you (o be told everything in this col- umn—suffice to say that never has there been such a race tracz #icene in any other film. Whoever was responsible fou selecting this vehicle for Jackie's first film, sans the Dutch bob, i to be congratulated. Much de pended on the story which was to introduce a mnew Jackie Coo- gan to the American public. We are frank to admit that we like the Jackie with the regular hoy hair cut, just a tiny bit better than the baby Coogan who has blessed the screen these five years past. The young genins may have lost some superfluous hirsute, but those big brown eyes seem to have grown in size since last he appeared in a picture. » ioNE MINUTE TO 3 PLAY, COLISEUM | P Wlth a dramatic and brilliant story of college lite, vivified by the striking personality and un- paralleled football genius of Rad Grange, Greater F. B. 0O's. pro- duction of “One Minute to Play,” sets a record for other campus pictures to shoot at in vain. The film, which opened its local show- ing at the Coliseum Theatre yes- terday, is not only as clever and delightful a romance as has been seen here in some time, but con- tains some marvelously vivid HAVE DARK HAIR ANDLOOK YOUNE Nobody Can an Tell When You Darken Gray, Fad- éd Hair With Sage Tea Grlndmolhw kept her hair Beautifully darkened, glossy and £:n¢!lvo with a brew of Sage and Sulphur.

By asking at any a gridiron scenes which are sure rn‘ thrill every lover of the pigskin game. J | | Byron Morgan, who turned out most of the late Wallace Reid's famous racing stories, has written a well-balanced theme for the picture, with_a strong dramat climax. Gr: eshms with a gr foot i reputation, comes to college un | der paternal orders not to partici- | pate in the game. Induced to don | moleskins through feelings of col- | lege loyalty, he is surprised by his father on the eve of the “big | ame,” and learns that if he | ays, the older man will with- | draw his offer of a badly-nceded | endowment to the institution. The ensuing decision forms the basis of as cleverly handled and thrill ing a climax as h éver been shown on the screen.
