FULLER’S PICTURES

THE WORLD’S CHAMPION

BOXER

An outstanding feature the current programme at the Town Hall Is a magnificent dramatic film, “The Heart Punch,” featuring the world’s champion boxer, Jess Willard. In addition to giving intimate details of the training life of the champion, there is a breezy and buoyant nauative with a good heart interest, that makes for its popularity. Another star feature is an engrossing story of river pirates and a girl detective, “Following a Clue.” This is a drama of real struggles and daring deeds to run down a gang of thieves who were always a menace to the river. Supposing pictures consist of war topicals, comedies, dramas, topical budget, etc. MONDAY AND TUESDAY. The management takes pleasure in introducing one of the episodes of the master-criminal of the century (magnificently screened by the Nordisk Company), “The Abduction,” or, “Dr. Gar-el-Hama's Escape from Prison.” At the outset Dr Gar-el-Hama’s escape from prison is pictured, and the ingenuity which serves him so well in his subsequent proceedings is very clearly illustrated. The story is vivid and exciting, with the true Nordisk ring of quality. Included in the supporting items is a rattling Keystone comedy, featuring Charles Murray, “His Second Childhood,” Charles, to be near his sweetheart, dresses as a governess. It is a shriek of shrieks.
