Freezing weather prevailed al

Spartacus" is story of ancient
Rome; of the bloody Circus Maxmus:
Of the history-famed slave uprising
led by Spartacus; of the hand-to- hand
conflict on the lava strewn Vesuvius:
OF two great armies, one of slaves
led by Spartacus, and the other the
flower of Roman soldiery led by
Crassas.
The gladiatorial games, participat-

in the Circus Maxianus, and the luxur-

and entertaining Illustrations of the
social life of the times. There are en-
chanting peeps into remot. hooks and
corners of imperial Rome. For ex-
ample, Roman grop-ship, patronized
by boastful gladiators, furnished 2
curiously interesting commentary 5on
the british, militaristic spirit that
pervaded the daily life of the period.
The role of Spartacus is placed in
the hands OF Signor Mario Ausonia,
an Italian wrestler and actor, whose
physique makes him an extraordinary
prototype Of the ancient gladiator.
