Some of the scenes in this play were filmed on the Yale campus and the Yale crews training guarters—the first time a concession of this sort has been granted for motion pictures. As stroke oar of the Yale crew and the plucky heto of & charming romance, Walsh not only looks the part of perfection, bLut handles the difficult lusiness—of which there is plenty— in his usual dynamic, magnetic fash- ion, and comes out victorious in both iove and war. “The Winning Stroke” is wholesome in sentiment, powerfu in plot and speedy enough M action to meet any demand. It looks like “a winning stroke” for both star and exhibitor. The other feature -is “Oh Boy" which i$ said to represent the only really successful attempt ever made to translate to the screen the com- plete story of a modern up-to-gate “girlie-girlie” musical comedy hit. In- ternational News and a funny Mutt comery completes the show. STRAND Poor and unlettered, but known as the “best blacksmith in the country,” Ash Whipple aspired to the heart of Nance Haws, the fairest flower in the village. He was-not alone in his ad- miration, bat hix swit was crowned with -success ‘and they were married within the shadow’ of Little Thunder, the stately peak which both ~ had grown to,look upon as an altar tg their happiness. A contemptible rake, smarting un- der the sting of a well deserved thrashing at the hands of the smithy, planned to shatter his home and his happiness, and when an’ outeast whom Ash had heffiended struck and acci- dentally kifled the ruffian, Ash helped him to escape and assumed responsi- bility for the murder. Here began a struggle between love for his wife and child and duty to a fellowman who has shielded them trom the ‘sting of bitter slander, giv- ing rise to a succession of snmuom of dramatic intensity, How the various (hreads 'of this fountain romance are finally drawn together i told in “His Divorced Wite,” with Monroe Salisbury in the principal role, supported by a cast which includes harles West, Charles LeMoyne, Alfred Allen, Alice Eliott, Raymond @allagher and little Mickey Moore.
