NEW TECHNICOLOR
 CINEMA AT STATE
Heart of the North Opens This Afternoon Star
 ring Dick FOran

Outdoor action, thrills and sus- pense will predominate on the screen of the Warner Bros. State theater this afternoon and until Monday evening as Warner Bros technicolor production Heart of the North" arrives at this theater today for a four day showing.
 In the opinion of critics it is a full bodied picture which combines all the elements that make for superb entertainment. It has, ad- venture, romance, thrills, humor, and it pictures, with loveliness the technicolor camera has never surpassed, the wild and little known country in which its action is laid.
 Added to all these requirements of the ideal outdoors picture, this production includes large cast of popular players. Heading the list are such well-liked performers as Dick Foran, Gloria Dickson, Gale Page, Janet Chapman, Allen Jen- kins, Patric Knowles and James Stephenson with the chief charac- ter roles placed in the capable hands of actors like Russell Simp- son, Joe Sawyer, Joseph King and Anthony Averill.
 The production acquires a special interest because of the evident authenticity with which the daily existence and the work of the famous relocated policemen of the Canadian woods are depicted.
 In the leading male role is Dick Foran, as a member of the Cana dian Mounted Police. He is given every opportunity to display that credibility as genuine man of action which made him so popular as hero of his previous successes.
 Gloria Dickson and Gale Page vie so evenly for feminine honors that 1t is likely the theatergoing public will be influenced in deciding which is the better actress only by their preference between blondes and brunettes.
 Janet Chapman, favorite six year-old starlet, who displayed so much talent in her first two pic- lures. gives the older actresses a run for their money. And she, in turn, gets tough" competition from a beautiful and marvelously trained police dog called "ex" in the story but actually that same Lightning" who was the star of White Fang" and other films.
 Providing the background for the film is country that is one of the worlds last frontiers, the thinly
The Waterbury Democrat., 1938-12-09

populated Mackenzie River region just below the Artic Circle. The story centers about the successful efforts of Foran, as an officer of the ''Mounties" tracking down and capturing the leaders of a band of outlaws which has held up a little river steamer carrying expensive furs and many pounds of newly! mined gold to he outside world from a frontier trading post.
 All in all it is fast-moving, thrill ing f1ln-fare of the type which doesn't lose it's pace for moment even though an expressing love story is interwoven into the web of exciting incidents. Theatergoers are urged to attend the opening per- formances today or before the closing Monday evening.
 A queer mixture of mystery, fun and excitement is the second big hit of the program ''The Mad Miss Manton" co-starring Barbara Stan- wyck and Henry Fonda. Triple themes, comprised of mystery, comedy and romance, in sparkling story offers the two star favorites some of their finest opportunities. The supporting cast includes Sam Levene, Frances Mercer, Stanley Ridges and Whitney Bourne.
 Comingto the State on Tuesday are Dick Powell and Olivia de Hav- Hand in Hard to Get" and "A Man to Remember" starring Anne Shir- ley and Edward Ellis.

JACKIE COOPER
 IN STRAND FILM
'Gangster Boy Headlines New Double Feature
 Opening Tomorrow

Attractions concluding their en- gagementS this evening at the War; ner Bros. Strand theater include Ronald Colman in elf Were King" and Broadway Musketeers" starr ring Margaret Lindsay, Ann Sheri- dan and Marie Wilson.
 Tomorrow and Sunday the Strand will present two outstanding at fractions, "Gangster Boy" and '"The Frontiersmen" both of which will have their first local showing, dur ing their schedule two day engage ment at this theater.
 Spotlighting the bill is the thrill ing drama, "Gangster's Boy" starr ring Jackie Cooper with an impress sive supporting cast composed of Robert Warwick, Lucy Gilman, Louise Lorimer and other notables.
 Theatergoers who view the offer ing will see 8 new Jackie Cooper, one who promises to be one of the screens great stars. He exhibits his talents to better advantage. in this picture than in any other recent vehicle he has made.
 This dramatic story of the high school generation is a vehicle per- fectly suited to young Cooper's ex- traordinary talents, giving him op- portunities he has never had before.
 So the story goes of one Larry Kelly, high school hero, leader of his class in scholarship and on the athletic field, whose lifetime ambi- ton is to go to West Point. Every thing is set for Larry until his father, Tim 'Knuckles" Kelly, one time racketeer, retires from the rackets to come to Milford to live with his beloved wife and son.
 Larry does not know of his fathers past, but he finds out when the newspapers try to run Tim out of town. Larry'S school friends turn against him, all except Julie Davis his "girl friend" and Bill Davis, her brother and Larry's best friend. These two stick by him in spite of their fathers extreme displeasure.
 With things looking black for Larry, who believes he cannot go to West Point on account of his father, the film builds up to a dramatic climax that will have to be
