He really loves the girl, hut she has ‘only entered Into the affair because of a bet. Ray swears they are through and makes a vow that he’s going to marry the first woman he meets. Of course in his endeavors to get away from amything that wears a skirt, he meets practically every pretty girl that Hollywood harljors with the possible excep tion of Pola Negri, Bebe Daniels and Gloria Swanson. Oh yes, and then there’s the episode in which he enters another's house, think- ing it to be his own, only to dis- cover a beautiful woman, who is the sole owner of the world’s toughest husband. And the wild chase, without which no Griffith comedy seems complete, Is a “wow!” To break the suspdnse, it must be admitted that the picture ends just as it began—with the original sweet- heart sately enfolded in the star's manly arms. “Muscle Bound Music” s the title of Mack Sennett's -late: classic of “fillum” fun which will be an additional program feature.
