TOW HALL
“Four generations of Hicks have lived in this house -and we ain’t leavin’ now.” With those words Old Man Hicks breathes defiance to Old Man Beagle and a bloody feud in the Kentucky mountains is -on in “The Big Killing,” the Paramount Wallace Beery-Raymond Hatton train comedy at the Town Hall on Wednesday. The Hicks and the Beagles had quit “feuding” for the “t-iore profitable pastime of making corn “lidljer,” but, when one of the Beagle boys finds his sister in the arms of young Jim Hicks, the still gets a rest and the rifles come into use again. Beery and Hatton are, as usual, the round pegs in the square holes. They stumble into the thick of the feud when they think they are landing a soft job. Then they find themselves busier than they have ever been before, dodging bullets. They tumble through a trap door in the woods and land in the Beagle’s cellar still. Then they have to try their skill as foot racers again when the Beagles discover their hiding place. With final episode of “Blake of Scotland Yard,” tOomedy and News. Usual prices.
“Don’t Marry,” will head next Friday’s programme.
