EVERYBODY’S
“THE COLLEGE BOOB” Lefty Flynn, who plays the role of a football hero in his new picture, “The College Boob,” which will be shown at Everybody’s Theatre to-morrow, is one of the few film stars who can be truthfully said to live the part instead of merely acting it. Flynn made a nation-wide reputation for himself at Yale as a halfback, and in the new production he only had to imagine himself back at New Haven to put a thoroughly realistic interpretation into his role. The resulting picture shows graphically the extraordinary athletic ability that brought him fame on the gridiron, and contains some of the most vivid football sequences ever filmed.
Immediately following the phenomenally successnil premiere in New York of “Old San Francisco,” Dolores Costello commenced work on her next starring production for Warner Brothers, “The College Widow.” Her next picture for Master Pictures’ release is “A Million Bid,” with Betty Blythe, Malcolm McGregor, and Warner Oland in the cast. She is also starred in “The. Heart of Maryland,** with Jason Robards, Warner Richmond, and Carol Nye.
