IS STAR
 DURING WEEKEND,
 CAPITOL THEATRE

Challenge to Lassie," M-G-M's new Technicolor drama. opening at the Capitol Theatre tonight for this weekend, gives the popular collie star, Lassie, his first character role, that of devoted dog who rocked Scottish legal circles nearly hundred years ago.
 While Lassie has been noted ir previous pictures for his remarkable agility in swimming torrents, scal- ing walls and saving human beings from certain death, his part in Challenge to Lassie" is actually a character study Marking new first" for the collie, who already has set a number of celluloid rec ords, Lassie now enters the select circle of stars who have brought historical characters to the screen.
 Edmund Gwenn and Donald Crisp portray the humans involved in the case, which created worldwide in- terest and which is now marked by a monument set up in the heart of the city of Edinburgh, Scotland.
 The only deviation from recorded fact is in name. Tn the new film Lassie appears as Lassie, whereas the original canine hero was called Bobby.
