TOWN HALL. Dorothy Sea combe is the stag of the big feature “The Third Eye,” at. the Town Hall to-night. Miss Seacombo plays the role of Marion Car,stairs, a very determined young lady who assists her lover (Ifin Harding) to discover the perpetlra-, tor of a series of mystifying bank robberies. She is said to dem'onsl rate remarkable acting ability in ibis essentially dramatic role. Another feature of “The Third Eye” is the highly original plot, which centres around a newly invented television apparatus and a rapid sequence of clever hank robberies. How these two aspects of the story are brought into conjunction forms a Hirst-rate story. The “Third Eye” has been called the first television picture, and justly so, for this latest, of inventions is not merely introduced into the story as a novelty, but is used as the definite theme, of the plot. With other pictures at usual prices. ' No-better story than “Strong Boy” could have been selected by Fox Films to abet Victor McLaglen in making inroads into public fa--1 voulr. This photoplay comes to the Town Hall on Monday, and is the last word in comedy. The story centres around a big, baggage-sma-shing, bashful Romeo whose shyness in the presence of the gentler sex gets him into more than one trunikful of difficulties. Beatrice •!oy serves as the object -of McLaglen’s screen affections and carves one .more notch in her record of cinema triumphs. Farrell MacDonald, David Torrence, Eulalie Jensen,. Dolores Johnson, Kent Sanderson, Slim Summerville, Clyde (bok, Tom Wilson and others.are cast in strong roles. Usual prices.
