"River's End" Yokohama
 Featured at the Strand

That desperate men in tight places are apt to give little though to others in the battle to preserve their own lives and liberties is dem- onrrated in Rivers End" the Warner Bros. and Nitaphone version of the great Curwood novel of the Canadian Northwest. which comes to the Strand theater Sunday with Charles Bickford in the leading role. An innocent man, charged with murder, captured in the icy fast nesses above the Arctic Circle by an officer who resembles him closely enough to be his brother, makes his escape and is assured of his lib erty if he is yelling to leave his captor to die.
 Faced with this very vital prob lem, will human consideration for another being, even an enemy who is sworn to deliver him to a mistak- len justice, triumph over concern for spersonal safety? And if he does return to rescue his captor, will that man in turn be able to deliver his benefactor to a fate that he realizes may be unjust?
 Evelyn Knapp plays the leading feminine role opposite Charles Bick- ford, and David Terrence. J. Farrell Mcdonald, Zasu Pitts, Walter Me Grail. Tom Santschi and Junior Coghlan are in the cast. Michael Curtiz directed.

SCOTLAND YARD' AT
 EMBASSY THEA7ER
Thrilling Melodrama FaYorite Background of Edmund Lowe

The camera and the screen be- tween them have a habit of no, telling the exact truth about girls height and weight, although they usually fatter her age.
 This is the opinion of Joan Ben nett which she expressed while film ing Scotland Yard" at Fox studios, the picture in which Edmund Lowe Is featured in dual role and which will be shown at the Embassy thea ter beginning today.
 They make a girl seem both taller and heavier than she is" con- tinued Miss Bennett, which is one reason, l suppose. why producers are so lnsistent upon girls being of the eally-slender type. The woman of medium height and weight on the screen appears as slightly too tall and too heavy for romantic and juvenile roles, while the very tall and very stout woman take almost gigantic proportions
 For some reason romance and love and charm are associated in the popular mind with the small woman, with girls that appear slight and helpless and in need of masculine guidance and support"
 Although Miss Bennett did not Gay as much, she, herself. fulhlls admirably all these qualifications for she is admittedly one of the loveliest actresses on the screen to- day. Her role in Scotland Yard" gives her ample opportunity for dis play of her charms, and the tender love story which she enacts with Lowe is filled with tense, human situations that afford her the best opportunity of her career to portray emotions.
 Scotland Yard" was adapted by Garrett Fort from Denison Gifts sensational stage success of the same name. It deals with the life of q criminal who fought with his past and with the persistent efforts of Scotland Yard to break him down, in order 10 deserve the love of Uom- an who trusted him.
 Added Embassy treats: Gerald Sullivan at the mighty organ. Other screen comics carefully selected sur round this excellent program.
