COSY THEATRE

“DIAMOND FRONTIER." Based on authentic incidents during the discovery of diamonds in South Africa, with the subsequent lawlessness and disorder which followed in the wake of the rush to the diggings, "Diamond Frontier,” which will be shown tonight at the Cosy Theatre, starring Victor McLaglen is announced as an action and thrill-packed Universal drama. The locale is presumably somewhere along the Orange River. The discovery of a large rough diamond in the hands of a group of children is recreated, as are the scenes of the violent rush for claims which followed when lhe news of the rich strike spread to neighbouring communities. In the cast with McLaglen are John Loder, the English actor; Anne Nagel, who has the role of Loder's sweetheart; Philip Dorn, young Dutch actor; Francis Ford, the old-time serial star; J. Anthony Hughes, Lionel Belmore, Ferris Taylor, Cecil Kellaway, Hugh Sothern and many others. The associate feature is an exquisite romance of youth, “Girl Loves Boy,” featuring Eric Linken, Cecilia Parker and a grand cast.
