CAPITOL THEATRE

Fred Thomson comes to the screen
in a new type of virilc Western story
in his latest starring picture "Silver
Comes Through" playing at the Cap
itol Theatre for today Friday and
Saturday.
A liberal touch of the traditional
pride of Old Kentucky in it's ''horse-
flesh" is inculcated in this stirring
story enacted in picturesque west
ern atmosphere. Thomson, as it's
star, is seen in what is practically
dual characterization Of cow
puncher and horse racer in "Silver
Comes Through though the latter
is really an obligatory impromptu
role growing out of the rapid Sc
qucncc of the whirlwind action of
the story.
Opening in a whirling blizzard Of
the range country of the West,
Thomson is seen in heroic por-
trayal as the rescucr Of his employer
and Of a tiny colt which later shares
honors with the star as SILVER
King" A desperate encounter with
a starving puma, provides one of
the high-marks of spectacular inter-
est in opening episodes.
A splendid cast is assembled for
"Silver Comes Through" and in
cludes Edna Murphy in the leading
feminine role. William COPYRIGHT

we're to be found as q dancer-so she
staged a boxing ballet" called the
act "Rough House Rosie and Her Six
Roughnecks" and was success
from the start! That's one of the
side-lights discovered in Clara Bows
Rough House Rose showing at the
Eltingc again today and Saturday.
The star is an east side girl, who
falls in love with handsome prize
fighter but temporarily deserts him
for society scion. The latter offers
her wealth, culture and all the things
which her fiancc doesn't possess.
Naturally, she has hard time decid-
ing who her true love really is and
in the interim, laughs, thrills and
dramtic punches pile up - all cul-
minating in big smash at the mid
dleweight championship bout.
Reed Howes heads Miss Bows cast.
