The Indians who attack the pioneers of 1776 along the Daniel Boone trail to Kentucky in Charles Brabin's stirring account of the Kentucky frontiersmen were large- 5y Mohicans. The warriors, head- ed by Whitespear, himself a Cherokee, wore the traditional breech clout and strange body markings of the Mohicans.

Whitespear was recently seen in "Cimarron." "The Second Honey- moon." "The Bad Man" and "Adios."
"SCANDAL SHEET!"
"Scandal, Sheet," starring George Bancroft which is now showing at the King's Theatre is the tale of an unscrupulous and ruthless newspaper man.
There is something very grand in the way this blustering big boy of the screen mauls and bellows his way through the scenes of a screen play-and yesterday's audiences didn't miss a flicker of the two- fisted parade. They seemed to be entranced by the mighty power of this he-man hero.
{CB13)
In spite of the doubtful ethier of the character whom Bancroft here (CBit7}
portrays, there is that warmth of (CD158) understanding in his work that en- dears him to his myriad followers as n much-beloved actor.
"Scandal Sheet" is the story of false a managing editor whose creed proves to be his own undoing. In his daily work as the boss of the city room he operates on the theory: .(CB295) that "news is news, and we'll print
it no matter whom it may hurt."
When the town banker (Clive Brook) asks Bancroft to withhold publication in his paper of a story concerning the financial status of (CB200) his bank, Bancroft tells him that nothing can prevent Mm from (CB291) spreading the yarn. Since the to Tea, bank is really. In a sound condition,
the publication of the story will do) more harm than good,, but Baucroft has a hunch that Brook is enëaking and that there is something crook- (CB300) ad afoot. On,
