All the excitement and danger to be found in racing a car arc in “California or Bust,” also to be shown tomorrow night and starring . George O’Hara. The race, however, is not the tra.ck variety, but is confined to two cars which test their superiority on the dangerous road across the Arizona desert. TURUA PICTURES. .IS THAT SO? On Saturday next will be screened “Is, That So?” This is the screen version of the international stage success which proved such a whirlwind and sensat’on in London. It is a. Fox production, full of thrills, and gives continuous entertainment. CASEY AT THE BAT. Tuesday night next will be shown “C.a.sey at the Bat,” featuring that well-knowp laughter-maker, Wallace Beery. This is a sparkling comedy of the baseball demon, with Beery at his funniest. It is a laughter special,.
