TOMORROW Athlete Actors of Screen -Must Be Good Boxers When an actor tor has the role of ja fight champ on the stage or the sereen he must, first of all, be an In Coming Production |»»lc boxer. So many people go to fights these days, beth men and women who have also seen pic- ture exhibitions, that it would be foolish to attempt to try to con- vince the average audience that jan inexperienced, clumsy man is a good boxer. For a player who is called on continually for that sort of part, the most regular training must be observed. Not only must he be in fine physical . condition, but daily sessions with a professional boxer are necessary. Such an actor is William Fair- banks, who stafs in Columbia’s Perfection series of fight-speed- action dfamas. Fairbanks, long before his screen . debut, was a noted college athlete. He has never relaxed a.day since his school actiyities and as a result he is in a physical condition that would enable him to compete with many professional boxérs. The strenuous stunts, Big Bill is called on to do during the film- ing of his pictures have a great ‘deal to do with this attention. In | the Perfection series he repeated- jly risked his neck dozens of times using every sort of dangerous \ trick from driving speed machines jat a dizzy rate to leaping from jairphanes. | In “The New Champion,” his Hatest which shows at the Strand Theatre tomorrow, the star is the leenter of a whirlwind story that | \takes him from’ the blacksmith \shop to the world’s champigaship | by the most amazing string of in- cidents, | Lovely Edith Roberts co-stars |with Fairbanks. The supporting }east includes Al Kaufman, the fa- | mous boxer. Others in the grou; jot popular favorites are: Lotus | Thompson, Lloyd Whitlock, Frank | Hagney, Al Kaufman, Marion }Court and Bert Appling.
