TONICHT'S MOVIE
OFFERING FILMED
AT CARRISO GORGE;

"'Beggars of Life, - Wallace
Beery's latest screen hit, which
comes to the West Coast Imperial
Theatre tonight, holds particular
interest for valley residents as it
was filmed at Jacumba this summer,
many from here visiting the movie
camp near Carriso Gorge, to watch
the filming of the picture.
For the greater part of month
Beery's company, which included
Louise Brooks and Richard Arlpu,
were quartered at Jacumba, the
country there being considered cx-
cellent representation of the typical
Jungle or hobo.camp.
"Beggars of Life' is taken from
the story by Jim Tully, himself an
cX-hobo and one of the most realis-
tic writer's of the day. Tully has
been a knight of the road, u profes-
sional fighter, actor, author and typi-
cal soldier of fortune.
The picture marks Beery S return
to heavy stuff after scoring
many hits in light comedy roles
which have gained for him a large
following among movie fans. beg
gars of Life proves that he has
not lost any of his acting ability
and he portrays difficult role to
perfection.
In support of Beery are Louise
Brooks, one of the most successful
of younger stars and Richard Aren,
whose splendid work in "Wings' -
will be remembered as long as folks
go to movie shows. Incidentlv, for
the interest of baseball followers, il
might be stated that Mike Donlin,
the old Giant outfielder, has a spc-
cial place in the picture. Another
character is Nose, a gigantic negro,
who in real life is Edgar Blue Wash
ington, former Los Angeles high
school athletic star and later ball
player with one of the fast colorcd
teams on the coast.
Beggars of Life will be shown
tonight and tomorrow, with the
usual program of news reels and
comedies and special music ON the
new Wurlitzer by Miss Hazel Early.
