“THE FRONTIERSMAN.” Tom O’Brien of “The Big Parade” fame, and who played in “Winners of the Wilderness,” Tim McCoy’s second starring vehicle for Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, has the role of .Sergeant Abner Hawkins, in “The Frontiersman,” McCoy’s fourth semi-historical drama, opening at the Town Hall theatre on Friday. This role of the frontier scout gives O’Brien a fine opportunity which he takes full advantage of. “The Frontiersman,” is a vivid tale- of frontier adventure and romance, having as a background the war with the Creek Indians, which ended with their utter defeat by General Andrew Jackson’s famous Tennessee Militia. Beautiful Claire Windsor appears opposite McCoy, and other players of note are Louise Lorraine, Tom O’Brien and 'Frank Hagney. With Birthday Greetings” (Comedy), and News. Usual prices. On Saturday evening a most exciting drama of police work in the big cities “The Police Patrol,” will head another specially selected week-end programme. James Kirkwood heads a big cast. Usual prices.
