GRAND AND LYRIC
“REVENGE” Dolores Del Rio has one of the most colourful roles of her screen career as the bear tamer’s daughter in “Revenge,” now at the Grand and Lyric Theatres. “Rascha,” as she is called in the story, is the daughter of a gipsy bear tamer living in the Carpathian mountain region of Rumania. She tames the bears with abandon and gleefully rules them into submission. Then “Rasha” tries to tame a man, “Jorga,” in the same manner, but in Jorga she has met her match. Leroy Mason, playing the role of “Jorga,” is splendid. Tall, handsome, and full of vigour is this newcomer to the screen. The second feature at both theatres is “Blue Skies,” a love drama between two waifs in an orphanage. Helen Twelvetrees and Frank Albertson are the stars. DANCING AT DIXIELAND
Another enjoyable evening is promised at the Dixieland Cabaret this evening when the usual Wednesday evening dance will .be held. The famous Dixieland Dance Band will play and dancing will continue until midnight.
