 Heldar, portrayed by Coleman, is separated from Maisie, played by Muriel Angelus, after they pledge eternal love as children in England. The boy finds his way into news paper work where he is discover ed'' and encouraged by Torpen- how, hard-ridnig war correspond ent of the Richard Harding Davis tr q tion. Under Torpenhow's guidance, Heldar becomes a famous artist and the sensation of the Lon don art world

 Considerable exploitation empha- sis may be given to the fact that the prehistoric animals in this pic ture, unlike those in the earlier ones, give no suggestion of being puppets. It might be considered a point of interest to mention also that dialogue is dispensed with during much of the action, panto- mime giving a suggestion of silent picture technique. It may also be remarked that in this film Lon Chaney Jr., although a secondary principal, makes his first display of the Clancy talent for makeup

CHRISTIAN FRONT
 LEADER HOPEFUL
New England Chapters Not to Change Name Despite
 N. Y. Episode

Boston, Jan. 10. -- (UP) - The Christian Front In New England will continue It's work "along oonstitu- tional lines" without changing It's name, according to It's organizer, Francis P. Moran.
 Forming tho i7 men arrested in New York "black sheep who foolishly departed from the purpose of the Front" Moran insisted his organiSa- ton, claiming 10000 members, worked only ito halt the spread of subversive activities, to stamp out Communism and to work for Chris tan AmericanisEn."
 The local group was termed "anti- Semitic rather than revolutionary" by members of the Boston police rad- ical squad yesterday. Moran said he had denounced Heading Jewish rad- !cals" but denied he was anti-Semi- tic.
 Insisting that T don't approve of violent methods" Moran said he had not applied for renewal of his permit to carry a pistol.
 Meantime, the Communist party of Massachusetts asked Attorney General Paul A. Dever to investigate the Christian Front as a ''pro-Fas- cist" organization. Governor Salton- stall said, however, the state would not act since there was nothing to indicate that the New England or- ganisation was connected with the New York group.
