HAROLD LOCKWOOD TOMORROW.
Cowqunchers who know how TO act
in motion pictures are used in Harold
Lockwood's Metro wonderplay. Under
Handicap" which viii be seen at the
Unique theater starting tomorrow. In
this photoplay made from Jackson
Gregory's novel, these men take part
in a big roundup, this portion Of the
picture having been actually made on
the scene OF a great Rodeo camp in
Arizona.
While preparing for this picture
Metro players were quartered in tents
pitched on the banks Of a winding
stream, with a thick growth OF mes
quite near by. The company had its
own chuck wagon" and cook, and the
food supply was partly furnished by
Harold Lockwood and others in the
company, who lived up TO their repu-
tation Of being crack shots"
One Of the most exciting moments
in Under Handicap shows Anna
Little as the heroine gallopinE on
horseback after a swiftly moving
train. She leans from her horse TO the
platform Of the observation car. Two
OF the fastest horses ever used in mo-
ton picture work were used in this
scene, and the train which Miss Little
caught was going at terrific rate
Under Handicap" is a smashing
seven part production made Of the
kind Of stuff the picture goers like
and IL is heralded as the best picture
Harold Lockwood ever appeared in.
