TIVOLI
“THE CLAW” ON THURSDAY In these days of modern civilisation, it is hard to realise that there are still places on the globe where a white man is in constant danger of attack from savage natives who retain that primal instinct to kill or be killed. This condition still prevails in parts of British East Africa and it is this background that Cynthia Stockley, the noted author, has taken for her latest story, “The Claw,” the screen version of which will be shown at the Tivoli Theatre on Thursday. Mrs. Stockley has woven a powerful theme around the lives of a beautiful English girl, an English army officer and the scion of a noble English family, who are transplanted by the die of fate from the calm and dignity of London to the African veldt. Claire Windsor and Norman Kerry are co-starred in the picture, while the other end of the triangle is portrayed by Arthur Edmund Carew, Sidney Olcott directed. Other names in the cast include Nelson McDowell, Tom Guise, Helen Sullivan and J. Gordon Russell.
