 Attractions At Theatres
THE COWARD" AT
 COLISEUM TONIGHT

For the first time in five years, Warner Baxter, popular screen play CT, is to be presented in an FBO production, "The Coward" at the Coliseum tonight.
 While he has been extremely ac- tive as the lea din a.. number of big pictures recently for five years, Baxter has not been on the studio lot where once he was under con- tract to FBO. In The Coward" :" he returns to make pictures with his old friends and associates.
 This picture, adapted from a story by Arthur Stringer, publish ed in Hearsts International Maga- zine, portrays the struggle of a young New York society man to re- claim love and honor by an heroic trip through the Canadian North Woods in the company of a fa- nous trapper
 His final defeat of a suave and dangerous rival in the contest for the hand of beautiful Sharon Lynn and the manner in which he wins the everlasting friendship of the picturesque tapper-guide are said to form dramatic highlights seldom seen on the screen.
 Baxter, of course, is cast as Clin- ton Philbrook, the hero. and Shar- on Lynn, renowned for her beauty, plays the girl. Freeman Wood is the heavy and Raoul Paoli, French athletic champion, the guide.

-- NEW VILLAIN IS
 AT PALACE TONIGHT

Charles R. Rogers, producer of Somewhere in Sonora" whi ic h comes to the Palace Theatre to- night, has a mania for breaking traditions regarding villains in mo- tion pictures. His latest production starring Ken Maynard, has for a locale, Arizona and Mexico. Hence tradition would call for a sneering mustachioed Mexican to do the dirty work in the picture. Instead, the Mexicans appear as clean-cut friends of honest Americans and aid them from the villainy of the low-class whites.
 Rogers did something similar with Ken Maynard's last picture, The Overland Stage" Being a story of early settlers in the West, the usual motion picture proceeding would be to have Indians as trouble makers. Instead, the poor Indian was given an opportunity to appear as he really is, the victim of un- scrupulous white men.
 This is but one of the many phases in which Somewhere in Sonora" is different from the usual run of Western pictures. Photog- raphy, story, and cast are in the biggest feature class.
 Kathleen Collins appears as Ken Maynard's leading lady, others in the cast including Yvonne Howell, Carl Stockdale. Charles Mailes, Ben Corbett, Monty Montague, Joe Ben nett and Richard Neill.
