CAPITOL
“■EAST SIDE, WEST SIDE”
‘ East Side, West Side,” starring George O’Brien and Virginia Valli, now being shown at the Capitol Theatre, is a story centreing round the career of a barge boy in New York left alone in the world when his parents were drowned.
Plunged headlong into the colourful turmoil of the city, he began a career of fighting and complishment which led him through the slums of the Ghetto, up Fifth Avenue to Harlem, to the luxury of Park Avenue and back again to the slums. There was Judge Kelley, friend of
Gilbert Van Horn, who finally told him his real identity, and Harboard, close friend of his college days at Columbia, where he studied engineering.
There was little Becka Lipvitch, of the East Side, who gave him the most he ever knew of real happiness, perhaps because her love demanded so little and left him free to carry on the work which always came first in his life.
Also on the programme is the Road to Romance,” a story of piracy on the high seas, with Ramon Novarro as the hero.
