THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, FRIDAY, MARCH 2, 1934. e et e EARTHQUAKE 1S 1| BACKGROUND OF EXCITING FILM Jack Holt Stars in “The Wrecker” Which Is Play- ing at Coliseum Theatre “EAST TIME TONIGHT “The Wrecker,” thrilling Col- umbia feature now at the Coliseum + | Theatre, with Jack Holt in the leading role, is an exciting drama built around the earthquake which demolished a large part of South- ern California last spring. Jack Holt gives a vigorous por- trayal of Chuck Regan, fearle: forthright building wrecker wh marital "life meets with a prema- ture breech, and the producers have given him a splendid sup- porting cast, including Genevieve Tobin, Sidney Blackmer, George E. Stone and Ward Bond. ' The story concerns Chuck Re- gan, his wife Mary, and Tom Cummings, "a friend of Chuck's— educated, cultured, polished. Then there is also Shapiro, a junk sal- vager, who, as portrayed by George E. Stone, stands out as one of the most interesti characters on the jlocal screens in months. The men all progress and grow rich—Chuck l] at the head of his own wrecking 'firm; Cummings as a contractor and Shapiro in business for him- self. And then Mary—won away by ,the superficial culture of Cum- mings—leaves Chuck, who in ut- ter dispair allows her to get a di- 1vorce and marry ‘Cummings. Ful- ly disheartened and discouraged, Chuck falls into a life of dissipa- tion until the faithful Shapiro |rescues him and restores his self- |respect. At this point a terrific | earthquake rocks the city and Cummings and his wife are trapped {in the flimsy debris of a new school built by Cummings with cheap, skimpy materials. Chuck is the only man avail- lable with the expert knowledge to stage a rescue for which he | volunteers a plan, But in the act of cutting away the obstructing steel girders he is overcome with TOMORROW ONLY TOM MIX in “McKENNA OF MOUNTED” and “THE MIND READER” New 3 i ?
