BAXTERTONIGHT ¢ IN‘ARIZONA KID' Great Outdoor Romance | Features Mosa Naris, Argentine Beauty REMEMBER IT! Thi Never to Be Imbued with the real spirit of | the Old West, “The Arizona Kid"”, Alfred Santell's great outdoor ro- mance in Movietone, opens at the Coliseum Theatre tonight, with the incomparable Warner Baxter in the title role. To the many who hailed Baxter's gallant outlawry in “In Old Ari- sona,” this new picture will come as a joyous piece of screen rein- carnation. For Baxter again plays the part of a reckless and amorous | bandit, whose love affairs with a dance hall girl and a gambler’s wife | together with his impudent use of an alias to defeat the officers seek- | ing him, serve to motivate the swift | moving and gorgeously photograph- The picture’s beginning “plants”! the widespread search that is befhg | made for the elusive “‘Arizona Kid."( Mysterious, But Respeeted | In Rockville, a little Utah vil-| lage, the “Kid" is living under the name of Chico, a somewhat mys- terious but highly respected citi- zen. His shooting of a highwayman who holds up the Rockville stage further buoys his reputation, and his affair with Lorita, the queen of the dance-hall entertainers, is one of the town's favorite conver- sational topics. The arrival of a gambler, Nick Hoyt, and his wife Virginla, who poses as his sister, complicates matters. Chico is immediately at- tracted to Virginia, arousing Lor- ita’s jealousy. From this point on the story adds thrill to thrill, lead- ing to a climacteric scene of un- surpassed action and realism. Filmed on Story's Site Establishing a new record in film- ing the picture was taken on the exact site of the story, even to the interior sequences, “The Ari- zona Kid” is an unusual piece of entertainment.

Mona Maris, the Argentine beauty who scored so heavily in “Romance of Rio Grande” opposite Baxter, is again his leading lady in this film, and the supporting cast is headed by Carol Lombard and Mrs. Jim- inez. Ralph Block wrote the origi- | nal story and dialogue, and the remarkable photography is due to Glen MacWilliams, with George Leverett responsible for the sound reproduction.
