Raft, who heretofore has always| been portrayed as a “public en-| emy” on the screen, is this time on ihe side of the law. He plays the role of the detective. Brook, too, does a complete reversal of charac- terization. Always a ‘righteous”, gentleman, he is this time cast as leader of the ring. Miss Vinson xsE the girl who works with him. MlssI Skipworth has an amusing role as a doughty duchess. \ Much of the action of the piece | takes place in the supper club which the gang uses as a “front” for its operations. Raft comes here,' posing as an American crook, and, after outwitting Brook and Miss Vinson on several attempted thefts, | gets himself accepted as a mem- ber of the ring. His plans go awry when he finds himself falling in love with the girl, however, and the develop- ments from that time on are high- ly dramatic. | 2Zane Grey's “Man of the For-' est,” twenty-ninth of his novels to reach the screen, is the second full length feature picture on the Coliseum theatre’s program, with Randolph Scott, Harry Carey, Noah Beery, Verna Hillie and Buster Crabbe in leading roles in this thrilling drama. Like other Zane Grey stories, “Man of the Forest,” is an action- drama. Every moment is crowded with red-blooded, two-fisted action, and there’s plenty of hard riding and bitter gun play in it as well. The story centers around Scott, the man of the forest, who over-| hears a plot concocted by Beery, the menace, to capture Miss Hil- lie. She has been sent for by Car- ey, her uncle, so that the latter AGAINST ACTOR . | Mrs. Richard Bennett Is| Seeking Separate Main- tenance, Court Action LOS ANGELES, Cal, May 2— Charges that Richard Bennett, fa- mous actor, stabbed her in the| cheek with a nail file, beat her| and threatened her life, are made| by his wife in a separate main-| tenance action demanding $3,000 monthly alimony. Mrs. Bennett accuses the father of the famous trio, Constance, Joan and Barbara, with threaten-| ing her life with a pistol, cursing | her vilely and also charged him with “maniacal moods. Bennett's attorney has offered| Mrs. Bennett half of the commun- ity property, whigh she valued at $75,000, but he refuses to pay ali- mony “because he felt the fault | for separation was more hers than| his.” | | SRR AN CAPT.

He was a mem- ber of the commission which drew up the Baltimore City charter and| he served on the Maryland state ! board of health for 30 years, resign- ing in 1929. Early in his career, decorations and degrees were showered on Dr. ‘Welch, including the coveted doc- torate from Strassburg and docto- | mous | London, | the Distinguished Service Medal for e et ettt This Picture Is Not Recommended for Children rate of science from Cambridge.
