COSY THEATRE

‘•THE KID COMES BACK." Tonight there will be shown Wayne Morris's now picture. "The Kid Comes Baek,” which brings to the screen something new in the way of prize fight pictures. "The Kid Comes Back” is a new kind of fight picture. For once the hero doesn’t win the championship. And what’s more he is knocked colder than an iceberg by his biggest rival. This would seem to be variation enough from the accepted rules of picture making, but “The Kid Comes Back,” employs a few other revolutionary changes of procedure. One is the grade of actual boxing which is shown on the screen. The villain of the picture is portrayed by Maxie Rosenbloom, ex-light heavyweight champion of the world. Others in the cast are June Travis and Barton Mac Lane. Gangsters whose crimes lead to international wholesale murder are exposed in the other feature, a new thrill drama, “Homicide Bureau,” with Bruce Cabot and Rita Hayworth featured. Said to be one of the most action-filled melodramas ever produced by Columbia, “Homicide Bureau” presents Cabot as a police lieutenant assigned to the “murder detail,” which is under heavy fire for its inability to solve a series of baffling crimes.
