BRITANNIA
“KNOCK-OUT REILLY” A fight film that is reputed to have all the punch of the real thing, plus the well-known Dix brand of humour, will be shown to-night at the Britannia Theatre, when “Knockout Reilly” opens for a two-day run. Adapted from a story by Albert Payson Terhune, “Knockout Reilly” stars Dix as a young steel-puddler, who, after many vicissitudes, attains to a pugilistic championship. Mary Brian and Jack Renault are featured. The film is said to be as exciting as that classic of all Dix pictures, “The Quarterback,” which but lately took the country by storm. Malcolm St. Clair directed.
