MAJESTIC THEATRE
TO-NIGHT. Slim Summerville and Zasu Pitts. That is the star-spangled combination of laugh experts that Universal has plaeed together for the first time in "The Unexpected Father," which opened at the Majestic Tlieatre Theatre last night. Slim plays the part of a gawky fellow of the rural districts who suddenly discovers enough oil in his. backyard to transform -him, overnight, from overalls to a house full of servants and riches. Aasu enters the scene as a nurse from the local ~dog hospital who comes to the millionaire's house by mistake to care for a sick puppy, but finds that Slim has just been adopted by a little waif of the streets who needs both care and love. There is a new "kid" sensation in the film, Cora Sue Colllns, who boasts of four years of existence and a great deal of natural acting ability and beauty, it is reported. Dorothy Christy, the blond, willowy "vamp" of many a devastating screen affair, Claude Allister, the popular English comedian, Alison Skipworth, Grace Hampton, and Tyrell Davis are also prominent among the cast.
