The big Western star, riding TOM MIX ENACTS ROLE WRITTEN BY FAMOUS AUTHOR Nina Wi]co;(—P—u}nam Writes Thrilling Western Yarn for Favorite Horseman Thanks to Nina Wilecox Putnam, its author, “The Fourth Horse- man,” Tom Mix' newest picture which has its first showing at the Capitol theatre tonight, is said to be far more interesting than the usual “Western” type of photoplay. Mix and his horse, Tony, need no introduction to movie fans. ‘Whatever picture' Tom Mix is in is bound to be good. This time he plays the role of a well-to-do rancher who refuses to stand idly by while a gang of bandits cheat a beautiful girl out of her real estate. There are flying fists and thundering hoofs galore and the usual thrilling de monstration of riding, shooting and fist-fighting as Tom and Tony go through their paces.

DIVORCE DRAMA | FOR BARRYMORE Emotional drama, fense and deep | founded, is the outstanding charac- teristic of “A Bill of Divorcement,” starring John Barrymore and which will come to the Capitol theatre soon. The theatre-wise will recall that the stage inspiration of the picture, the long-lived play by Clemence Dane, made Katherine Cornell famous as a star of the stage. In the Radio Pictures’ film adap- tation, starring honors are taken by John Barrymore, supported by Billie Burke, and by Katherine Hep- |burn, who portrays Miss Cornell's stage role. {SITKA GIRL SCOUT COUNCIL ENTERTAINS SITKA, Alaska, March 24— .

The attendance was unusually large and the enthusiasm of the guests most gratifying. -Refresh: ments were served by the hostesses, and the party ended with the usual Scout ceremony. \ i, 'MRS. J. W. LEIVERS AND DAUGHTER RETURN HOME | Girl Scout Council entertained the| {listen” days when a star stopped alacting—and action—to burst Preparations Being Made in Studios for Pro- ductions By ROBBIN COONS HOLLYWOOD, Cal, March 28.— Discussions of the musical film, which is very definitely back on the screen now, are a great deal more sober in character than the ecstatic effusions of producers re-' garding their attempts in the mu- sic-mad season of 1929-1300. Then the cry, adapted in that stage satire on Hollywood, was “the legitimate stage had Detter look to| its laurels.” The camera could do anything, the movies could spend more money, the screen could,‘ dwarf the efforts of Ziegfeld or an | Earl Carroll. i ANOTHER GOAL NOW much concerned with shaming the! much concerned with tshaming the stage. They are looking to the laurels' which is an entirely new | field they can earn for the screen. They are interested in what the camera can do for its own sake, not in what it can do to belittle the footlights. Virtually all the studios are agog with preparations for a musical offering, Jimmie Durante in “I; Married an Angel,” Eddie Camor}v in a version of “Androcles and the Lion” an all-star cast in “Gold-| Diggers of 1933, Peggy Hopkins | Joyce in “International House Lilian Harvey in “My Lips Betra —these are typical and there a others, Some of them are just light stories with music incidental to the telling; a few are to be deco-| rated with chorus girls; and at least one is to be a revue. But the significant difference between these‘ and the former output is a prom- isingly imaginative approach. | Increasing attention to scoring, | the frequent injection of musically | embellished fantasy into films— Harry Lachman’s “Face in the Sky” is illustrative — forecast a! generally healthier era of screen music. | MUSIC WHERE NEEDED i William Kerneli, composing for | the Harvey film, comments on the | demise of the “stop looking, and; into song. A consistent story, 95 per| cent action with music logically| and sparingly interpolated, is hn ideal. Mark Sandrich, to diréct a mu- sical for R-K-O, plans to adapt a grand opera idea to his project “They tell a story in song,” he says. “Why can’t a movie be at least partially told in song?” e CHITINA MAN RETURNS FROM HONOLULU TRIP| R.
