"C IRL OF RIO" FEATUR RED ON
 CAPITOL'S BILL
Dolores Del Rio Stars in Colorful Play Replete
 with Thrills

"The Dove will fly gracefully into town tonight-not with the symbolic olive branch of Biblical lore, but with the magnificent Dolores Del Rio cast in role more brilliant than any in her colorful career.
 The screen dramatization of the successful Willard Mack stage suc- cess, now titled Girl of the Rio" will open at the Capitol theatre
 Produced by RKD-Radio Pic lures, the story follows closely the plot of the Mack play as it was presented in almost every city and large town in the United States with Richard Bennett and the late Ho,brook Blinn.
 Has Thrills Galore
 The screen version is melo- drama, but adorned with a flow of adventurous action and in re- lief, beautifully composed romantic moods in the best manner of the director, Herbert Brenon
 Miss Del Rio is the star of the picture in more than a nominal sense. She makes the portrait of the cafe entertainer a dramatic canvas of conflicting moods. At one time suodued and afraid, when the emergency occurs, she is a forceful defender of her man.
 The pompous braggart, Don Jose Maria Lopez y Tostado, is played by that masterful delineator, Leo Carillo who, like Miss Del Rio, is a direct descendant of long line of Spanish Dona.
 Supporting Cast Excellent
 Carrillo's portrayal is as effec- tive on the screen as was Ben nett's and Blinn's on hte stage.
 The romantic role opposite Miss Del Rio is played by Norman Eos ter, and it is extremely well done. Others who gave splendid perform ances are Stanley Fields, Edna Murphy, Lucille Gleason, Ralph Thee and Frank Chapman.
