GRAND THEATRE
TO-NIGHT. Tom Mix is now at the Grand Theatre with his Wild West Show! This time he's in a picture — but what a picture! "My Pal, the King" is its name! It's about a rough and ready crowd of cowboys and Indians who set up their show in a tiny Balkan Kingdom. Mix, the headliner, of the Wild West circus, strikes up a friendship with the 10-year-old King of the diminutive empire, and the fun starts when he and his boys shoot up the place in old fashioned Texas fashion to save the life of the boy regent from his villainous political enemies. There are thrills galore as the peer of all the Western stars gives a full circus performance of shooting, riding, and roping before your very eyes, and there is romanee to suit your taste as the heautiful princess entreats the cowpuncher to save her little nephew. Mickey Rooney; Noel Francis, of the Follies; Finis Barton, "Miss Australia"; Jim Thorpe, the great Indian athlete; Paul Hurst, Stuart Holmes and James Kirkwood are all in the cast to make it a grand party.
