Prior to the filming of Three Leg

royal ever screened was in The
spoilers. The fight of the prospec-
tors in the Alaskan gold-rush had
never been equalled for sheer brut-
atty to participants and property.
The record of THE Spoilers" has
been spoiled, however, By the ter
rifle fight between the Cossacks, led
by Bob Armstrong and Lyle Talbot,
and the Bolsheviks, headed by Stan
ley Fields, in "Three Legionnaires,

ire for run of two days, starting
tonight.
Among the battlers were many
famous wrestlers including Man
Mountain Dean, Tink Roebuck and

make a living from the manly art
of bone-crushine were all of the
opinion that wrestling was a pink
tea party compared with the knock
down and dragout fight in Three
Legionnaires. F"
