Bovd Gets Real Thrill.

WILLIAM BOYD experienced his
w greatest thrill during the filming
of THE Night Flyer" James Cruces

It occurred while making sequences
Of that picture in which the star en-
gineered q railway locomotive ct q
speed of 80 miles an hour. A. the train
sped onward the locomotive cabin broke
loose, leaving Boyd and the fireman
at the mercy OF the terrific winds.
Making their predicament worse. the
top OF the cab wedged Just over Boyd's
head, crashing up and down a. 1t was
whipped by the wind. At almost any
minute Boyd might have been smashed
to a pulp or hurled from the speeding
locomotive TO the ground and TO GER
tain death.
Boyd displayed the greatest nerve
believe I have ever witnessed" de-
clared Director Lang. Realizing the
cost Of losing the scene and aware
every minute that the picture must &C
on, Boyd called upon his fireman for
aid, and the two managed TO dislodge
the cab roof and hurl It from the en-
CINE. We who watched were helpless
because we could not get to the throt-
tie Of the engine. which was blocked
by the loose cab-top."

which for completeness and novelty
have never before been equaled upon

siderably augmented by graduates from

According to figures compiled from

for new faces for the screen Is said TO
be the reason for the increased number
