STARS TUESDAY IN CRPITOL PLAY Novarro Appears for Last Times Tonight in “Devil May Care” With “Devil May Care,” starring Ramon Novarro, showing for the last times tonight at the Capitol Theatre, “Their Own Desire” fea- turing Norma Shearer, will be pre- sented tomorrow night at the popu- lar playhouse. The plot of “Their Own Desire” concerns itself with a family of “this year of grace” whose parents are gradually drifting to divorce. {When Tally, the daughter, played by Miss Shearer, discovers her fath- er in the arms of another woman, ishe takes her mother’s side and the 1two go to a resort to get away from the embittered atmosphere of the domestic empasse. Here Lally meets and falls in love with Jack, played by Robert Montgomery, only to discover after promising to marry him, that he is the son of the woman whom she has seen with her father. % Fast Moving Play The untangling of this sitpation | makes up a fast-moving plot which contains interest, suspense and a highly pitched climax, necessary ingredients to any well-made cine- ma product. Among the various locations. used in the filming of “Their Own De- sire” were Lake Arrowhead, which is more than 100 miles from the studio in Culver City, Calif, and Is situated upon the crest of one of the highest ranges in Southern | California; the fashionable Nor-! conian Club near Elsinore, where swimming peol scenes were mads the field of the Midwick Countr: | Club in Coyote Pass which was used for the filming of a polo match, and Franklin Canyon wherz a motorboat sequence was made in which it was necessary for wind| machines to be used to whip the| ordinarily placid waters to a hur-i ricane fury. Novarro in Fine Play In “Devil May Care,” a story of adventure, romance and comedy, in the period intervening between the exile of Napoleon to Elba, and his return to France, Novarro has an excellent opportunity to display which is his. He is supported by a very prefty and capable young newcomer to the screen, little Miss Dorothy Jordan, of musical comedy fame. Other players who do weil- balanced work ineclude John Mil- jan and Marrion Harris. The added feature atiraction the Capitol tonight is Harry Lang- don in “The Shrimp.” —_— e ELIAS NAMED PRES.

They offer him a job in the gum factory. He accepts and shortly afterward finds himself doing the toughest tasks in the plant But the plot to make his work disagreeable and thus belittle him in the eyes of Claudette, goes awry, for the plot- ters had not calculated on the am- biticn and genius of Maurice.
