Fortified with a superl dramatic story and a role tha runs the gamut of emotions, thi: ! steMing ‘little Actr88¥ adds new laurels to an already fine list o. screen achievements. “The Road to Glory” is an orig inal story by Howard Hawks, who also directed the picture. It deals dramatically with the part Chance plays in human lives and tells the experiences of Jadith Allen, played by Miss McAvoy, whom Chance topples from the pedestal of youthful ecstacy to grim de- spair. By Chance, Judith’s father is killed; by Chance the girl goes blind and ‘them, with her faith lost, she drives away her youthful sweetheart and turns to the fast life in defiance of man and God. In addition to Miss McAvoy's fine performance, there is equally fine work by a great supporting cast. Leslie Fenton, whose work in “Havoc,” brought him to the fore in cinema drama, plays the boy. Ford Sterling, that always excellent actor, is seen as the father. Rockliffe Feliowes is the sort of villain you will sympathize with., Others in the cast are Milla Davenport and John McSweeney.
