GRAND THEATRE

TO-NIGHT The name of Loretta Young is always sufficient to bring this reviewer to a threatre with much anticipation. And when John Wayne, the meteoric hero of "The Big Trail" and the everdelightful Lew Cody are also in the cast, the result is apt to be extremely pleasurable. This is the case with " "Three Girls Lost," Fox comedy drama which opens at the Grand Theatre to-night. j

Joased on tne story oi Robert D. Andrews and direeted hy Sidney Lan- ■ .field, "Three Girls Lost" turns out to be a highly diverting tale of a trio of damsels from as many country towns, who come to Chicago to seek the not incompatible combination of jobs and romance. While each obtains the former, the romance proves more elusive; one of the girls makes the old mistake of loving too well; one is frankly a golddigger, who finds the task of handling two men at once somewhat beyond her powers, and the third, none other than Miss Young, spends most of her time extricating the others from their troubles. With young Wayne as a struggling architect and Cody as a racketeer, " who passes as a wealthy man-about-town, the masculine element is capably represented, and these two fur- = nish the majority of the difficulties I in the girls' respective paths. The cast includes Joyce Confpton and Joan Marsh as the other lost maidens.
