“THE VAGABOND KING”
SETS NEW WORLD’S RECORD By smashing every record held by tho Criterion Theatre, New York, in receipts and attendance during its world premiere at that theatre last month, Paramount’s all-colour operetta, “The Vagabond King,” has probably established a world’s record for motion picture success. Although the Criterion Theatre is more than 35 years old, and has presented such international successes as “Tho Covered Wagon,” "The Ten Commandments,” "Wings,” "Innocents of Paris,” "The Virginian,” “The Love Parade” and others, "The Vagabond King” has considerably topped them all. In view of the unprecedented success which has attended "The Y agal»ond King” at tho New York presentation, the mammoth production is expected to also create a new record in New Zealand, where it will be released in the near future.
