Bear of Alaska Fame Is Seen in Picture “The Sea Wolf,” wox movietone photoplay founded on Jack Lon- |don’s famous story, begins show- ing tonight at the Coliseum the- ater. Milton Sills, Jane Keith and | Raymond Hackett enact the lead- ing roles. Sills has the part of the “Sea Wolf,” the brutal sea-captain, ‘an | experimentor in the stuff of which {men’s souls are made. The two {chief victims of his curiosity, Miss | Keith and Hackett, are well cast. | The supporting players include { Mitchell Harris, John Rogers, Nat | Pendleton, Sam -Allen, Harry Ten- | brook and Harold Kinneér. Opening in 'Hakodate, Japan, where the Wolf is preparing to sail for the ‘Aleutian sealing grounds, the story is ¢olerful ahd intriguing from the very first. Fist Fights Galore Fist fights galore, the ‘shanghaing of a boy, his development under the stern and merciless environ- iment the sea battle with Death Larsen's vessél, the escape of the ‘young couple, and the final swift |climax all make “The Sea Wolf” lan intensely interesting photoplay. | The old revenue cutter Bear, {which for more than 45 years bat- |tled Arctic seas and saved num- erouslives, appears in the picture. ! Built in 1874 at Greenock, Scot- |land; as a whaling vessel, the Bear served for 10 years in the north | Atlantic. After the failure of the | Greeley relief expeditions to the jArctic in '82 and '83, the Bear, to- gether with two other vessels, was obtained from the British and managed to reach’ the castaways. Turned Into Barkentine | Turped over to the Revenue Cut- ter Service, now the Coast Guard, ‘a(m her triumphant return, the |Bear was fitted as a steam bark- entine. From that time until | she was formally taken out of com- mission in 1928, she was usually [the first government service ship linto the Arctic and Bering Sea every spring and the last out in {the fall. Several different seasons, crews of wreched whaling ships, caught in the ice the winter before were res- cued. One year she saved 12 such |erews alone. Her captain had judicial pow- ers. He sat as a United States | Commissioner in countless legal \disputes of white man and Eski- mo. He performed marriage cere- ' imonies and administered last rites to the dying. Presented to Oakland Finally she was retired and pre- Isented to the City of Oakland as a museum and training ship. ‘Then came her brief but pic- turesque reincarnation. The Fox Film Corporation, making the talk- ing screen version of Jack Lon- |don’s famous “Sea Wolf,” decided |that she was “just the type” to be used as Death ILarsen’s sealing vessel. When the Oakland authorities demurred Mayor John L. Davie of Oakland, an old personal friend of Jack London, steépped in. Put to Good Use “How,” he argued, “can the fame of this historic vessel be better kept alive than by letting her ap- pear in a motion picture that will be seen by millions?” The argument was unanswerable; and as a consequence the Bear played her part in the exciting sea drama. Lovers of things nautical will be pleased to see the famous old barkentine in the “Sea Wolf.” e, — Old papers for sale &t the Em- pire office. show | o { it Pendleton Shirjts Patterns Best Quality SABIN’S Everything jn Furnishings for Men COLISEUM The Voice of the Screen STARTING TONIGHT 9:30 Master ¢f Marine Masterpieces JACK LONDON is the favorite of those who love virile tales And hi ‘The Sea Wolf” will stir the soul of those who hunger for great action ro- mance as depicted in this Fox Movietone Picture. 7:30 WITH MILTON SILLS J4 KEITH RAYMOND HACKETT IN The Sea's Sharp Spray One of fiction's greatest char- s, Wolf Lar , a man of , iron body and a will to dominate over all men—and women.
