CAPITOL FILM | IS HELD OVER _ FOR ONE NIGHT *“Broadway _lo—Hollywood" | Reaches Back to Joy'ous i Eighties, Gay Nineties Sweeping back ¢to the joyous eighties and the gay nineties, on- ward to modern times, “Broadway to Hollywood,” is the attraction playing on the Capitol screen fcrl the last time tonight. H This picture is unique in that while essentlally a vivid drama‘of three generations of a vaudeville family, it at the same time injects, the pomp and pageantry of the; Gay White Way of an earlier and| more colorful era. Ballets in color, | songs and acts by Fay Templeton' and other noted stars of the past pass in review ine stage sequences background on which are told the! romances, joys, sorrows, triumphs; and disappointments of a lovable family of “troupers.” Jimmy Durante Present | Broadway and Hollywood stars mingle in the picture, which starts in the days of Tony Pastor, with, Alice Brad, and Frank Morgan as “The Two Hacketts,” a dancing duo. VERSATILEIN ROLE CHANGES Director of Buck Jones in “The California Trail” Praises Ability It is no small task to transform an actor—no matter how able— from the Mexican that Buck Jones played in “South of the Rio Grand” into the stalwart, stoic-In- dian he became in “White Eagle” and then into a gay and dashing| caballero in “The Mark of Zorro” manner that makes “The Califor-} nia Trail” one of the most inter- esting westerns Jones has made| yet, due tonight at the Coliseum Theatre. “A mew story to Buck is a new life to b lived,” insists Director Hillyer. “What he has played in the past seems to have no influ- ence upon his new characterization. That in itself—versatality and the ability to throw off old memories —is an achievement that makes a director’s job much simpler. I haven't enjoyed directing anyone as much as Buck Jones since William 8. Hart stopped making pictures.” Hillyer for years was the stand- by who developed Willlam 8. Hart into the historic figure he repre- sented on the screen. Twenty- five of the Hart westerns were partially written and directed by Hillyer, a background that makes him unrivalled in- his field. oo ALARMS AT WINN PROPERTY TWO FIRE Two fire calls this morning took the department to a ‘house on Gold Street between Fifth and Sixth Streets owned by Mrs. Anna Winn.
