Oweu moore In ~heported MfastnE.'
Reported Missing" the hilari-
Gus, sweeping romantic melodrama
that brings owen Moore to the
screen at Loew's Columbia for the
full week beginning yesterday af-
ternoon. is a picture that has one
purpose. and that IL to entertain.
How well II succeeds In this effort
was seen in the enthusiastic recep-
tion that was accorded the picture
by capacity audiences at the Co.
lumbia yesterday-an enthusiasm
which Saould mark every perform
ance OF the picture. 1t is, incl
dentally. Henry Lehrman's adapta-
tion OF his own story.
The story reveals Mr. Moore in
the role OF young man who comes
into possession of a shipping COM
pany. which holds an option on a
large fleet of ships which Is greatly
sought by a scheming Oriental
shipping magnate, The young man
is Indifferent to the option and its
value. but a young miss who is
more than ordinarily interested in
the hero persuades him to, get the
ships and keep them under the
American flag.
This infuriates the Oriental ship
ping magnate, who kidnaps the
young man and is compelled to kid
nap the girl, too, to prevent an
outcry. The two are put aboard
ship and sent to sea, but a storm
arises and the ship Is stranded. The
girls uncle demands her return and
the rival magnate takes OF the girl
and starts home with her. In the
meantime the hero Is recued by a
battleship, chases the Orie ntai in q
hydroplane and in a battle that fol-
lows his commercial rival is killed.
Thus the story is brought to a
highly romastic conclusion against
a thrilling and vivid background of
action that makes one of the best
stories of his career for Mr.. Moore.
Pauline Garon is seen as the girl.
while the cast includes additionally
Tom Wilson, Nita Naldi. Togo YAM
amoto and others.
The Columbia has supplemented
the featured attraction with the
latest issue of the international
News and a wholly charming SYM
phonic overture and musical accom-
paLiment by the Columbia SYM
phony Orchestra under the direction
OF Leon Brusilof.

them when he returns home and

The idea of the author Is to show
the transition which affects a young

be said that the lines and situations
are sufficiently spicy to harmonize
with the scenic and anatomical ef-
fects.

posed to be a continuation of the
