MUNICIPAL THEATRE
TWO NEW FEATUR.ES TO-NIGHT Another grand double-feature programme will be presented at the Hastings Municipal Theatre to-night. One of the most thrilling and tense of all jungle productions is Universal's '"East of Java," ^starring Charles Bideford, cast- su> au Ameriean gangster tleeing from East Africa with " G" • men on his trail, champiOns seven cowenng from human beings, ineluding a beautiful woman, against seven lions, when a tramp sehooner is wrecked on the reei's of a jungle isle a hundred miles from tlie nearest eivilisation. This is the film in which Bickford was .attacked by a crazed lion and nearly died of his wountLs. ■ "Men in Exile," a First National melodrama, starring Dick Purcell and June Travis, is laid in one of these ports in the Caribbean Sea. The settings are eaid to be entirely out of the beaten track of movie tradition and the lives of the eharacters are naturally coloured by the bjzarre nature of the 1 environment^ The daily routind of the
people, their habits of life, their constant and suspiciqus vigils set them .apart from citizens of other communities.
