would meet any man. He does not
plan to retire from the ring.

Novarro Is In
His Best Role

Because of his decided Latin APP
pearance and demeanor, as well as
temperament, Ramon Novarro is
seen at his very best in THE Road
10 Romance" the Metro-Goldwyn-
Mayer screen version of the famous
Joseph Conrad novel, which opened
Sunday at the Queen Theater.
Novarro is essentially of the Latin
type and his fire features and mar
~velous physique stamp him and ideal
Spanish hero.
Novarro was great in "Scara-
mouche," magnificent in "Ben-Hur,"
marvellous in "Old Heidelberg" but
is his own natural self as the dash
ing Jose Armando in "The Road to
Romance" To say a man is his own
self in a role puts him on n much
higher plane than acting ever could.
Had he lived in the days of Span
ish chivalry Novarro would have
been a gallant courtier. lie pos
sesses all the qualifications and
characteristics OF a Spanish cabal-
lero. He is handsome, manly in APP
pearance, moulded physically per-
feet and has a great sense Of humcr
as well as a talent for lovemakiag.
In his role Of the Spanish gallant
Of "The Road 10 Romance" he re-
minds ms of Valentino when the
latter was nc his height.
