Oddly, enough, Pichel has no pecial desnrn to be an actor at S|all.

I Theatre Bills Change Sunday * * * * * » * * * Strong Drama Rivals Musical Comedy JOAN CRAWFORD T0 TAKE PLACE OF BUCK JONES Charley Chase Will Be on Sunday’s New Program at Capitol Theatre “Desert Vengeance,” featuring Buck Jones, and Chapter 1 of the “The Lone Defender,” thrilling se- rial with Rin Tin Tin in the prin- cipal role, will be shown for the last times tonight at the Capitol theatre. “Paid,” starring Joan Crawford and “Rough Seas,” prée- senting Charles Chase, will be the chief attractions on the Sunday' program, which will be given hrst at the afternoon matinee. In “Desert Vengeance,” Buc}. Jones does some hazardous horse- | {back riding. Buck says he has a| new recipe for keeping domestic ! this—he lets his wife | bridge. At least that's s. But Mrs. Jones tells another s She says that he doesn't “I her do it. | She agrees, however, that her husband is the most daring horse- | man alive and says his feats in | “Desert Vengeance” made her shud- der. beat him what he s “The Lone Defender” In “The Lone .Defender,” Rin- Tin-Tin offers an entirely new | bag of tricks. He rides a bron:ho[ across the desert. He fights a wolf. “Paid” is the film version of Bayard Veiller's sensational stage play “Within The Law.” | The stage play was written 18' years ago and is generally regard- | ed as Veiller's finest work. Among | the dramatist’s other successes were “The Thirteenth Chair” and “The Trial of Mary Dugan.” Wth‘ the exception of modernization of| dialogue and action by Lucien Hubbard and Charles MacArthur, | the stage play comes to the talking | screen intact in original form. Briefly the plot of ‘“Paid” con- cerns a shop girl, “framed” and sent to jail for a robbery, who plans revenge on society and on| the man who had her incarcerated, | only to fall in love with his son. A gang killing brings the plot to a climax. | “Rough Seas,” revolves around | Charley Chase smuggling a little French bar-maid into a warship which, after the war, is bound for the United States. Thelma Todd as Antoinette, is perfect both in a; pearance and French accent, while Charley, as the song-struck, girl-| struck dough boy is his usual pleas- ing self. And the monkey must not | beforgotten. Little Napoleon makes his debut in this comedy, and he, too, deserves a hand.
