WANDERER OF WASTELAND PALACE A chorus of ‘ohs” and ‘“ahs” punctured the atmosphere last night at the Palace theater as an amazed and delighted audience witnessed the unfolding on the screen of Para- |mount’s widely-heralded “Wanderer. of the Wasteland.” By the time “The End" was flashed on the sllver sheet even the most blase of those present would have been willing to testify that it was the most unusual film offering of the scason. It is a pleasure to record that the picture more than fulfilled the high expecta- tlons aroused by the advance reports that had been circulated about jt. “Wanderer of the Wasteland,” adapted from Zane Grey's well- known story, marks a radical ad- vance in photoplay production in view of the fact that the picture was photographed entirely in ecolor; somethinggheretofore never attempt- ed in a full-length feature, A well nigh perfect cast was pick- ed to interpret the various roles. Jack Holt makes an {deal hero, Billie Dove is a vision of loveliness, Noah Beery is a “desert rat” and Kathlyn Williams has a fine role. The picture will remain at the Palace thealer‘ until after Wednes- day.

(LEARING ROADS OF ‘PRATE DRIVERS 746 Gases in Eight Months Be- fore Mofor Vehicle Dept. Hartford, Sept, 15.~—~People who “take & chance” dyiving motor vehi. cles without securing an operator's license from the state motor vehi department as required by law, are | being caught in Connecticut at the rate of about thre a day. During the elght months of this year up to the first of the current month, 746 such cases were reported to the depart. ment, resulting in the suspension of | the right to drive of those found gullty of the offense. The operator who s discovered thus violating the law is deprived of his right to drive a car for 30 days. This is accomplished by withholding an operator's license from him for thirty days atter the receipt of his application and fee, In case he is found guilty of a breach of the motor vehicle laws such as reckless driving, intoxication, overloading trucks or evading responsibility, this suspen- sion term is extended accordingly. It frequently happens, however, that the illegal operator is found out through an accident, in cases of which the discipline by the departe ment, independent of oourt actiom, may be more severe, By order of the motor vehicle de- partmfent, 4,697 drivers of motor vehicle department, 4,697 drivers of motor vehicles have been taken off the roads of the state for various perfods of time during the first eight months of the year. The total of suspensions of operators' licenses ex- ceed the total for the corresponding period of last year by 2,094 and ex- ceed the total for the same period two years ago by over 3,800, indi- cating the extent to which the des partment is resorting to this form of discipline in the effort to make driving safer in Connecticut. Reckless driving was responsible for 1,766 of thé suspensions made by the department up to September 1st, this year, driving while intoxie cated, for 678, evading responsibili- ty for accidents, for 95; driving un- registered cars, for 161; failure to report accidents to the department, for 853; fatal accidents 157 and the rest for miscellaneous causes.
