LYRIC
“SQUARE CROOKS” “Square Crooks,” featuring John Mack Brown, Dorothy Dwan and Robert Armstrong, is now being shown at the Lyric Theatre. The story tells of two block sheep, Eddie Ellison and Larry Scott, who are trying to turn white. Their idea of an honest calling is that of chaffeur and footman for a rich family, but the boys’ fear that their past will at some time confront them is justified, for their bitter enemy, Harry Welch, from headquarters, is close on their trail. Welch has not forgiven the boys for being responsible for his demotion, and informs their employer as to their past. The boys are discouraged, and Eddie tries to bolster up Larry’s courage with a.vivid painting of the future. The second feature is “Simple Sis,” starring Louise Fazenda and Clyde Cook in a humorous story of a laundry girl who loved a truck driver.
