Not often is such a colorful and dramatic story clothed with such bewitching music. All of the haunt- chants and ceremonial music s well as the famous solos of the ge production have been saved or the Vitaphone version and four new songs, have been added. The story of “Golden Dawn” con- cerns the fate of a strange white girl found with a barbaric tribe of blacks in Africa and offered by them to their native god Mulungha as a bride. Loved by English Soldier She is loved by an English sol- dier who battles almost single handed against the inertia of the tropics, political indiffer es, na- | tive fanticism, the exigen: of war nd the jealousy of a native slave driver to prove her white and to vin the right to marry her. Walter Woolf, brought to Holly- iwood from the New York stage where he was starring in numerous |musical shéws, sings the leading role with Vivienne Segal in the title nd principal feminine role.

Wocrs, wi0 plays a steliar role, has had his ups and downs. Weolf declares that the lowest cbb of his theatrical fortunes was reached at Lemon, South Dakota. era house in a neighboring town ‘in which the show had been billed burned to the ground one day before the performance ani Woolf and his partner were switch- ed to Lemon to play in a small movie house. That experience seemed to be the turning point in his career, accord- ing to Woolf and a few years later he saw his: name in the coveted 7 lights. 0 I———————i———————n—e—in———nEnmnnninngnin0n0es o MUSICALE FOR PUBLIC TO BE GIVEN TONIGHT Fine Arts Program Will Be| Presented in Grade School Auditorium A Fine Arts Program will be giv- en tonight, starting at 8 o'clock in the Grade School Auditorium.
