from then on. the less said the

JOHN HBEPI
ACTING AT
HIS BEST

''Truxton King" featuring John
Gilbert, current attraction at the
Rialtc theater. is without question
one Of the most pleasing features
that has played this house this
season. The play is an unusually
well balanced one, combining q
pretty love story with plenty Of
red blooded action. not overplayed.
In fact every element that goes
to make up q first class feature
Is present in 'Truxton King"
Based on the story Of George
Barr McGutcheoi one or the
Graustark series, tTruxtnn King"
is a true film version of the book.
1t is needless to dwell on John
Gilbert. in the title role. "Trux
ton King" II just another reason
why the star maintains his place
In the fore rank Of movie favor
ties.
The story is that Of an Amer
lean who climbing a wall meets q
prince Of Graustark. young Robin.
An aunt, played by Ruth Clifford,
comes into the picture. Tt later
develops that she and the sister
of "King" are friends. Then
comes the usual romance, but in
this instance it is far from the.
hackneyed type of love making
that seems so dear to the heart OF
the average producer.
There is but ,one John Gilbert,
and in Truxton King he proves it.
lGraustark enters a turbulent
period and King takes 1t upon
himself to straighten out matters.
The plot against the young prince
is nipped after plenty OF action.
The picture must be seen to be
appreciated.
"Truxton King" Is real eye en-
tertainment and is well worth your
while. If you have read. and per-
l1aps you have, any of the Grau-
stark books, by all means visit the
Rialto this week.
Blazing Away" a short com
edy skit, has more laughs packed

George NJ. Conan, at present in
Boston, announces that he has
cancelled a trip to Europe this sum-
mer to whip together three, pos.
sibly four, SO" musical comedies
for next season. This move might
be interpreted in several ways,
but the producer hastens to
specify his reason for cheaper
show production. The removal
of the tax on tickets up to SO, he
predicts, promises a Furnishing
serson for shows in this category
for the coming season. He further
believes that the removal OF the
tax means the return of legitimate
productions to all parts OF the
country.

announces, playing three or four
