COMING

CHECKERS" is coming to
the Grand Theatre on Monday,
June 7.
This is some news to announce.
CHECKERS" is the most
successful racing melodrama OF
the last twenty-five years on the
American stage. It's situations
are thrilling and its humor and
sentiment have kept millions on
the edge Of their seats 'twixt
laughter and tears.
Now it has been done as a big
special film production by Viii
liam Fox. I've seen it, and
know that the screen version not
only equals, but excels, the stage
version. 1t has all the drama
all the humor and all the love in
terest, with plenty of thrills as
these can be produced only on
the screen and staged only by a
director like Richard Stanton.
The exciting horse race scenes.
the train wreck, the fight in the
box car, the encounters in China
Town and the aeroplane flights
will hold you spellbound, TIT
beautiful love scenes will en-
chant you.
You'll enjoy the cast. Their
are Tom Carrigan as Checkers
and lovely Jean Acker as Per
Barlow. Then there are Ellie
Classify, Peggy Worth, Rober
Elliott, Tammany Young, Bel
tram Marburgh and Ed Sedi
wick.
