GRAND THEATRE
TO-NIGHT Days of the old West, when cappers stood outside the gambling and dance halls and urged the passersby to "take a chance at a square game" are revived in Paramount's western story, "Caught," now showing at the Grand Theatre. Turning back the clock to the old, wild days/ when every western town recognised gambling as a time- honoured pastime, "Caught" pictures this life in the "Bird Cage," dancehall and gambling place. Richard Arlen, as an ofiicer of the cavalry, is senij at the head of his company to clean up the gang of cattle rustlers who work under the Ieadership of a Western woman, known as Calamity Jane. As the owner of the "Bird Cage" Calamity 1 plays all ends against the middle in every brand of lawlessness that the border offers. Calamity, played by Louise Dresser, can shoot with the hest of them and has. the same iron nerve, and with these characteristics becomes the storm centre of a gripping drama.
