An air sequence, in which the prinâ€" cipals participate, provides outrageous laughs and thrills It is one of the highâ€"ligh‘ts of a picture which conâ€" tains more real humor and entertainâ€" ment than half a dozen ordinary comedies.

Another Picture Version of Edgar Wallace Thriller i AT THE LOCAL THEATRES | Howard Hugches is the surprise proâ€" ducer of Hollywood.

The desperately humorous situations which result from his love duel, interspersed with thrillâ€" ing episodes both aerial and on terra firma, combine to provide one of the most interesting entertainments that has reached the sereen. Producer Hughes has excelled himâ€" self in the magnificence the set, tings, which provide the background for this scintillating comedy.
