brn. It is a thriling film, this tale of desert feud growing out of the con- struction of Boulder Dam and its trem- endous effect upon the heart-strings and purac-strings of the ranchers of the great South-west, and Kent, Taylor faithfully embodles the attributes of other great Western heroen who have preceeded him in Zane Grey roles. lle enacts the part of Wade Benton, himself a 'rancher, friend to hundreds' of piner familles who have settled in this arid area. When the news comes of the President's authorization of the greatest irrigation project of all time, all realize that they are about to become wealthy. The machina. Hons, however, of Harkness (Irving Pichet), a crooked attorney, and Mark King (Berton Churchill), the fluancier, who seek to evict the ranchers from thele Eumes and appropriate the land for themselves, put Benton in fail and turn his friends against him. The coming of the Mysterious Rider, how- over, turns the tables on the scherners and encourages the ranchers to fight aviction. A charming love story be tween Taylor and Dorothy (Lonn Andre) runs through the picture. Lona Andre and Gail Patrick two of the entrants in the fatous Panther Woman contest who received contracts from Paramount inake their debut in this picture. Both, acquit themselves the Indiralds. Warren lymer, lu

role of Jitney Smith, delivers his usual "dumb" characterization in the man- ner that has won him distinction among the screen's foremost commed- ine.

"The Way to Love"

The secret is out: Maurice Chevaller sings in his morning bath-sometimes, And when he does, Hollywood song, writers are happy. Leo Kovin and Raph Rainger tell why. They have for composed twenty-odd Chevalier, including the tunes for his latest Paramount pleture, "The Way to Love", which comes to the King's Theatre on Friday. When Rainger has conpleted the antiste ton song and Robin has written the lyrics, Chevauer is invited to their office to hear the interpretation-with Rainger playing and Robin singing. They play the song several times for Chevaller, who goes on his way without com. inent. But, if Chevalier artses the nxt morning with the song in his heart and on his lips-it's "sold". If he's not in the singing mood white performing his morning ablutions, the song isn't what he wants. By this has invariable method. tho star selected such song hits as "Louise", "Mimi", "My Ideal", "Park in Parec" "Look What I've Got", "One Hour With You", and n acore of others.

Heritage of the Desert"

An acenes of extraordinary pic torial splendour, Zano Grey's "Herit age of the Desert," an exciting melodrama of the uk west, was en- ected on the screen of the Alhambra yesterday. No matter what the story may be, Zane Grey picture always assures its spectators of two major sources of enjoyment: thrilling action and a background of breath-taking senutv. Nor is "Horitage of the Desert" an exception to that rule, for the its action is paced to keep audience on the edge of the seats, and is along shota include broad ex Danses di desert and mountains and cloud-flocked skies that can be found only in the far West. The merits "Heritage of the Desert" possesses in common with every Zane Grey plc- ture. In addition. It tells n believable, gripping story of cattle rustling and two-tiatur courage, and serves to intraduco a long, rangy goed-jooking youngster named Randolph Scott, who gives promise of a brilliant future."

These are the opinions of Stephen Roberts, who directed Paramount's "One Sun- cay Afternoon", starring Gary Cooper, with Frances Fuller, Fay Wray and Neil Hamilton featured, now showing at. the King's Theatre. "Frances Fuller, who plays a lenting fedging role in "One Sunday Afternoon", is a splendid example of laborn dramatie instant.
