THE BLACK PIRATE
 AT THE CAPITOL
Douglas Fairbanks in Much
 Talked Of Picture

In presenting %The Black Pirate" which is coming to the Capitol on Sunday, Monday. Tuesday and Wednesday, Douglas Fairbanks is up to one of his pioneering tricks again. The film is in natural color, and vast improvement, we are told, over past efforts at presenting color. Doug" has picked out tones which are calculated to rest the eye-prln- cipally browns and greens and their complements. And all the color IS selected in accordance with it's dra- matic value. Four months of eX- perimental work was done along this line before a crank was turned on production.
 The story is an original from the facile pen of Mir. Elton Thomas. All the "yo-hoes" and "avasts' of 1Ith century piracy are in The Black Pirate" along with everything that any pirate ever did, from burying treasure to walking the plank. Without being specific, Fairbanks chose the southern seas as his To- cale, thus giving his adventure plenty of sea room. Albert Parker was custodian of the megaphone on "The Black Pirate"
 Billie Dove, that lovely young leading lady who is rapidly heading for stardom, furnishes the pulchrl- tude in this picture and also Doug s motive for cleaning up couple or shiploads of pirates.
 MT. Fairbanks open this picture, we are told, where most of them end-with the freebooters blowing LID a galleon along with the pas sengers, cargo and crew. Alter this placid incident things get exciting, and the first thing we know the star is the black pirate, rowing about and capturing ships single-handed and all that. All told two ships are blown up, and one is sunk under fire. The hero is made to walk the plank, and just how he extricated himself from that unhappy predica- rlent after his hands have been tied behind his back is quite story in itself.
 The cast for the picture is of very compact dimensions. There are only two women in the piece-Bliile Dove and Tempe Pigott, the latter in the role Of maid to the heroine. Other featured players include An ders Randolf as pirate captain; Sam De Grass as the villainous pirate,

finally finds" herself, creates and causes an ocean Of laughs.
 One of the funniest sequences in the picture is the fluke race that Bebe wins from Charlie Paddock of cinderpath fame who plays a prom inent part opposite Bebe. Of course in real life Charlie won the race for he has recently announced his betrothal to Bebe.
 Another scene that causes an un- limited amount of laughs is when Bebe attempts to walk home from a boat ride. Of course she cannot do this so she does the next best thing-no. she doesn't stay.
 Heading the cast we find Charlie Paddock. He displays fine acting potentialities and should go far in this new field of action. James Hall and Fl Bremdell respectively take care of the love and comedy inter ests.
 "The Campus Flirt" will remain at the New Palace for four days starting sunday night. It will be shown with five acts of select vaude- vile on Monday Tuesday and We'd ncsday

 Look to Communication
 Groehl based his optimism on the defense's interpretation of President Coolidge's communication of the At lanta sentence, which was rejected by Chapman.
 They cant withdraw it" said MT. Groehl "if the appeal is sustain cd, our contention Is that Chapman IS a free man.
