() ) D|GGER FOILED WHEN “Cid Man th!hm Story of College Youth and Romance, Coliseum Old Man Rhythm,” musical pic- ture starring Buddy Rogers, plays for the last times tonight at the Coliseum Theatre. The story tells the adventures in romances of a young college boy, whose father rescues him from the clutches of the campus gold-digger by enrolling as a freshman in the same school. Other than the usual claims to in- terest held by a college picture, “Old Man Rhythm” is unique in that three sons of three great actors play leading roles. They are Carlyle Blackwell, Jr., Bryant Washburn, Jr., and Claude Gillingwater, Jr. The senior Blackwell, tall, dark and handsome, was for many years an idol of the silent pictures. Wash- burn did not retire when sound ar- but continued playing char- Gillingwater has a wor- alentbearer in his son, but ¢lf is still acting in pictures.
