RIALTO AND REGENT.'EPSOM “DRUMS OF THE DESERT” One of the most extraordinary and romantic episodes in the history of the southwest is brought to the screen at the Rialto and Regent Theatres in “Drums of the Desert,” Paramount’s .production of Zane Grey’s “Desert Bound.” This is the elevation of a tribe of Indians from virtual poverty and dependence on the government to the heights of affluence through the discovery of oil on their reservation.

The story details the vicious efforts of a group of unscrupulous white men to have the Indians ousted from the rich field of “black gold” before the red men are able to take advantage of the discov- | ery and of the ! manner in which the conspiracy was defeated. Warner Baxter and Marietta Millner, the latter

Paramount’s latest importation from Europe, play the leading roles, with Ford Sterling and Heine Conklin supplying the comedy.
