Dynamlte Is Story of Many Murders, Succes- sor to “Thin Man” One of the year’s thrilling mystery { stories, “Mr. Dynamite,” which stars {Edmund Lowe, plays tonight at the ! Capitol Theatre. | While Lowe endeavors to pick |up the threads of a clue around | this morder, two more murders take | place, to which police refuse to give {him access. How Lowe eventually {gets around these difficulties and ;.xoxvvs all three mysteries, makes one | |of the most absorbing pictures seen | {in a long time. | Lowe is excellent in a role made ‘to order for him, while Jean Dixon, 1as his wise-cracking secretary, does \nobly by herself and the part. Miss {Dixon is a product of the stage who |bids fair to increase her popularity on the screen. Others who distin- guish themselves in the cast are Verna Hillie, a' little blonde new- | | comer who shows plenty of talent |and personality; Victor Varconi, Es- ther Ralston and Robert Glecker. | “Mr. Dynamite” is a worthy suc- |cessor to “The Thin Man.” Allan Crosland, one of Hollywood’s young | veteran directors, is responsible for | THE NIGHT ' the smooth running tempo in the THE, MIDNIGHT PREVIEW |story and the excellent touches m‘ ALSO Mr. and Mrs. Melody | direction the plcture shows. | Little Dutch Mill ! i Strings and Strains 1 Daily Alaska Empire News iju"eau; n“"glas ~ Democrats Rally Joe E.
