The Indian is| freated as a personality for the) first time in the drama that builds rapidly in emotional climaxes. Ramon Novarro, as the young 'Navajo Indian who finds love with tasted civilization, gives the most stirring performance of his entire screen career. His deft handling of the early naive scenes to the smashing climax when his native fury is unleashed are an actual expression of the book character. The Fiery Miss Velez The fiery Lupe Velez, who has scored in many lighter types of “firecracker” roles, comes through with a portrayal that will establish her as one of the screen’s leading dramatic actresses. Last Times Tonight Clark Gable and Myrna Loy will be seen in the drama of the medi- cal profession, “Men in White,” for the last times tonight.

STEVENS PLAYS LEAD IN CRIME FEATURE ‘The Crosby Case’ Open- ing at Coliseum Com- bines Murder, Love One of the most ingenious mys- tery dramas of the season is “The Grosby Case,” the Universal screen | {play which opens an engagement at the Coliséum Theatre tonight. Here is a motioh picture which lays bare the inner working of | the New York Police Department, | and follows the investigation of a | crime in & manner which main- | tains the interest at fever heat. | In the role of Scotty Graham;| suspected of a murder and appre- | hended by the police, Onslow Stev- | ens displays histrionic ability of a high order, and an earnestness which makes his character actu- ally live on the screen. Similar praise goes to Wynne Gibson in the principal feminine part of Lynn Ashton, suspected of the same crime, and altogether lovely as a girl at bay. Alan Dinehart is es- pecially convincing as the police inspector, and other important roles are finely played by Skeets Gallagher, William Collier, Sr., ‘Warren Hymer, Edward Van Sloan and John Wray. The story of “Thg Crosby Case” deals with the arrest and grilling of four people as suspects in a murder case, but each thinking thing entirely different. The pic- ture is a revelation in what may happen to a person through an un- lucky chain of circumstances, and how life itself will take on a whol- ly different aspect. The story ends in a surprise which is would be an injustice to reveal. PATCO NOT HARMED; MAKES TAKU JAUNT Indicating that his company's seaplane Patco was not damaged by the 50-mile gale which swept over Juneau’s waterfront last week, C. V. Kay, manager of the Pan- handle Airplane Transport Com- pany, announced that a trip to Taku Harbor and Twin Glacier Camp had been taken yesterday. Emmett DeWitt was taken on a round trip flight to Taku Harbor. The plane picked up Mary Joyce at the glacier stop. She sailed south on the Yukon this morning. Another jaunt to Hawk Inlet, was planned for today, but Kay made, because of bad flying con- ditions. | B0 O DENTIST RETURNS Dr. and Mrs. A. W. Stewart re- turned to Juneau on the Alaska.
