ROAD SHOW HERE
EARLY IN MARCH
Manager Oastler Closed Today With
Georgia Minstrels to Play Here
March y; Show Is Big Time
Now Playing at Curran

A contract was signed today be-
tween Manager Harry Oastler and
a representative of the Georgia
Minstrels," one of the few organi-
zations playing big time circuits, for
the staging of the minstrel offer
ing at the Nixon in this city on
Wednesday, March 7. The Georgia
Minstrels is an old company and
one of the few of its class that has
attained outstanding success. Dur
ing the next week the minstrels will
play at the Curran theatre in San
Francisco, where it is well known
that only high-class productions are
staged, SO it is probable Winnie
mucca is again to be treated to
something worth while in the line
of road shows. Press reports from
the northwest, where the. Georgia
Minstrels have recently been play
ing, are to effect that the company
has met with great success and has
packed houses everywhere for the
periods of their showings.
Manager Oastler announces sew
eral pictures of the feature order
for the coming week, included be-
ing:
Screened on Big Ranch
"The Crimson Challenge" Doro-
thy Dalton's latest Paramount pic
ture, to be shown next Saturday.
The roundup scenes Of this picture
were filmed on the Crocker- Huffman
cattle ranch, near Merced, Califor-
mia. This is one of the largest
stock ranches in the country, being
fifty-fve thousands in extent and a
most desirable site for the thrilling
roundup and chase scenes of the
new picture. Jack Mower is leading
man.
Every Saturday night, Reginald
Denny in "The Leather Pushers'
has been attracting unusual inter
est.
Harrington Novel Filmed
FOREMOST among the novels
which have brought Booth Tarking-
ton lasting fame, is undoubtedly
"The Man From Home," which has
now been translated to the screen
and which will be shown at the
American theatre next Sunday
With the action laid mostly in Italy
and several scenes in England and
America, the story is thrilling
one and in its transferrence to the
screen it has lost none of its in
tensity. Produced by George Fritz
maurice for Paramount, it has been
invested with the customary fire
and vigor expected from this virile
director. One of the chief details
is the excellent cast, which COM
prises such favorites as James Kirk
wood, Anna @. Nilsson, Norman
Kerry, Dorothy Cumming and John
Miltern.
Rex Beach Story
A story by Rex Beach is always
certain of creating interest amongst
its readers. The author has. a firm
place in the hearts of the fiction
reading public, because he writes in
terms of vivid and rugged charac-
terization. His stories of the north
west transferred to the screen are
in a class by themselves when it
comes to measuring out dramatic
values. "The North Winds Malice"
which comes to the American thea
tre next Monday is Rex Beach at
his best. Which is to say that the
picture is crammed full of action,
incidents, suspense, rugged charac-
terization and colorful backgrounds.
1t offers as much appeal as "The
Barrier" or "The Silver Horde"
And in the cast is Vera Gordon
(the "mother" of "Humoresque")
Joe King, Thomas Santschi and
others.
