BORDER LEGION
 COMES TONIGHT. TO COILS E U M.
Richard Arlen, Jack Holt and Fay Wray Are in
 Fine Western Play

"The Border Legion" Zane Grey's thrilling story of romance and out lawry in the early days of the West has been brought to the talking screen as one of the most out standing spectacular action dramas so far filmed with dialogue. It is a master outdoor talking picture product.
 In addition to Richard Arlen and Fay Wray, in the leading romantic roles, ''The Border Legion" which will be shown tonight at the Coli scum theatre, has the familiar and popular figure of Jack Holt playing his first talking Zane Grey role, in the cast. Fay Wray has the only woman role of importance in the picture. Eugene Palette has role that is very suitable to him.
 Story Full of Action
 "The Border Legion" is one of the most popular and actionful stories produced by Zane Grey. The story has the colorful gold-rush days of the 1870s as its back ground, and the desperate outlaw band which harried the adventur ! ous miners for it's subject. Spec tacular scenes of daring deeds, raids on a typical gold settlement, a troop of mounted men breasting a raging torrent, and tender mo- ments of glowing romance make rare entertainment, filled with sus- pense and hair-raising action.
 Scenes for "The Border Legion" were filmed almost entirely on To- cation, and on the very ground where similar action happened in real life less than 50 years ago.
 Beautiful, Natural Setting
 The beautiful natural setting of the California high Sierras is eff fectively mirrored by the camera to increase the feeling of reality.
 Otto Brewer, who has many Zane Grey hits to his credit, co-directed with Edwin H. Knopf. Edward E. Paramore, Jr., joined with Percy Heath, on the screen play.

If you're fat-first remove the cause!

He couldn't change himself into a heel-clicking Loch- invar, who would tilt forward to kiss the hands of Hollywood's beau- ties, as his wife desired, and so the difference grew into "glac- iers.'
 Tom was very blue recalling all the woes that had befallen him since he made millions. But Mrs Mix didn't shed a tear. It wasn't pleasant to watch her man spin ming pistol in the Jesse James fashion. She used to get the same sensations as person looking down the street from the dizzy heights of skyscraper roofs.
 Interlocutory Degree
 The court granted an interlocu- tory degree to Victoria Mix, and also gave her the custody of little Thomasina. Tom will be able to see his daughter for brief period during her yearly Summer vaca- ton. A property settlement was approved in the decree, but the amount was not made public.
 Hollywood will naturally give a sigh of relief, because the domestic noises emanating from the Mix union has been everything but har- monious to sensitive ears. A di- vorce was the best "silencer" and Mrs Mix got it. It was compara-

 Rags to Riches"
 The cowboy millionaire feels as glum as cigar store Indian about the divorce, but he is glad to be relieved of the pressure caused by Hollywood visitors, who, he firmly believes, wrecked his happiness. It isn't the first time that sudden wealth has sent love out the win dows. These rags to riches" unions usually are the first to bang up in the courts.
 Toms wild riding and pistol tot ing won his stardom shortly after his marriage, and the fortune grew overnight. But cowboys. and Wild Western pictures are no longer the rage, and perhaps that is how Mrs. Mix felt about it. She grew tired of seeing her husband dressed in boots and spurs and embroidered blouses every day. She wanted him to act the Beau Gallant and his only thought was My King dom for a Horsei"
 This was Toms second unhappy marital venture and he has every intention of making it his last. Ruth is his daughter, by the former marriage All he wants from the world is good horse, saddle and a bridle, and a tent. That isn't asking much.

HOLLYWOOD, Jan. p. - The Tom Mix pot of marriage woes has boiled over on the hot range of matrimony for the last time.
 For the last time Mrs. Mix has forgotten the culinary technique of keeping the lid tight and domestic flame low. In her divorce papers, she cited cruelty and claims Tom was loud and boisterious and that the millionaire cowboy frightened her by twirling his pistols in their home. And on these grounds she has won her freedom from Tom.
 But before she had shut the le- gal door on their marital difficult ties the hero of the Wild West screen melodramas let go of a lot of mysteries that have seasoned his matrimonial broth since 1913.
 Now the imposing mansion in Beverly Hills, with it's marble halls, stands a mute reminder of the days that used to be.

Rainy-day professions up and
down the street remind us that
we have had very little winter.
and what is left will probably
be rather nasty as to weather.
Though we may have gotten
along so far without rain ac-
cessories the time has come to
get them ready, for there's win
ter enough left to use up a
whole set of them. And as
Christmas draws near, it sug-
gests the practically of giving
a raincoat or umbrella as a gift.
Suede Is Sports Like
Looking for a raincoat that
is both smart and practical is
sometimes quite a job. but we
were lucky enough to find a
splendid one first thing. The
coat really shouldn't be called
a raincoat, for it's good enough
looking to be put in the sports
coat category, and you will no
doubt see them used as sports
coats much of the time. It's
made of a shower proofed suede
cloth.
Lines Are Fitted
But the lines of this coat are
even more attractive than the
leathery fabric. It is some
thing like the coachman coat
that has been so popular, double
breased, and buttoned up close
under the chin. The belt fits
it we'll through the waist. and
it is cut so that the coat fits,
too. No more sloppy old rain
coat lines in this. The buttons
are also leather-like. in the
plated style that you see on the
best active sports coats. 1t is
unlined, as it is already warm
enough, and the plain cloth
side OF the material is soft and
comfortable inside. It comes in
green. navy, and light brown,
almost tan. All the colorS are
lovely, and the coat makes an
indescribably smart appearance.
