4 /FJ ,1 “ ;ml‘l “ bialig - “DESERT SONG” AT CAPITOL John Boles, who portrays the masterful glorious singing role of “The Red Shadow,” has won the highest critical praise for his work. One ot the most affecting scenes fn “The Desert Song,” Warner Bros. Vitaphone operetta, now at the Capitoi theater today and Wednes- day, is the leave-taking between the mysterious Red . S8hadow and his band of Riff followers, by whom he has been condemned to banishment jnto the desert, with neither food nor water, and_no arms except his own broken sword. There is a great bond of aifection between the leader and his men, but he has refused to meet the French General Birabeau in single combat—knowing him to be his father—and the law of the tribe is inexorable, On Thursday the ~program will offer the Vitaphone feature “His Captive Woman” with Milton Sills and Dorothy Mackaill.
