1 Hv ------ THE OSHAWA, DAILY REFORMER. WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 8, (926 PAGE FIVE, ctu THEATRES ATTRACTIONS At Local AT THE NEW MARTIN Racing Blood is New Feature At the New Martin tomorrow will appear on the screen one of those racing dramas intermingled with love and youth which appeal to all movie fans. The story is an _inter- esting one. At the auction of a bankrupt ecir- cus in Meralta, Jimmy speads his last cent to buy a handsome horse. This horse is in reality, "The De- vil," Muriel's racer who had been stolen from her uncle. The news of this comes through the press wires to Jimmie's paper, but he is unaware that it is the horse that he has just bought. The big Maralta Handicap steep- lechase is announced and Muriel is » riding there in her car when she meets Jimmy riding the horse. Mu- riel recognizes the animal but does not tell Jimmie. She says it is a fine horse and advises him to enter it in the race and win some money so they can be married. Muriel then gets her father to bet against the "Devil" with Jimmie. The day of the big race, Jimmie not having any money to hire a jockey, decides to' ride the "Devil" himself. His weight, however pro- hibits the entry and the horse is apout to be scratched when Muriel dons the jockey suit and rides her- self. She is nearly killed going over a dangerous jump but wins the race and Jimmie's fortune back so thev can be married. lesides the feature there is a roaring comedy, 'Madame Dyna- mite." and the fourth chapter of "Buffalo Bill," the new serial. The younger generation has ite fling in "Racing Blood," the new Gotham Production at the New Mar- tin Theatre and the entire picture is as refreshing as a spring day. While the action of the story re- volves around a big steeplechase race there are other elements of ro- mance and comedy that are impor- tant. The race, however, is as thril- ling as the most captious observer could desire. To make it still more exciting the winning horse is ridden by Anne Cornwall, the .dainty lead- ing lady who, with Robert Agnew, takes principal honors. Thrilling Picture The thrills of the steeplechase, some very funny situations, a pretty girl jockey and an air of delightful romance are the principal factors in the success of "Racing Blood," the Gotham Production at the New Martin Theatre tomorrow. This picture, it may be stated, is a refreshing change from the usual race track story. It has all the thrills one expects in a melodrama of this tyne plus the modern style of light frivolous sophistication so typical of the youth of today. Rokrert Agnew and Anne Cornwall are the leading players in this ro- mance of real thoroughbreds and it is difficult to imagine two more eajoyable players for their respec- tive roles. To see Anne Cornwall ride a steeplechase racer to victory is something which alone is worth the price of admission. © "Racing Blood" may be set down as decided- ly worth going to the New Martin to see. ANNE CORNWALL "Racing 'Blood," which will be shown at the New Martin Theatre starting Thursday of this week. In REGENT OFFERS SPLENDID FILM Ken Maynard Makes Debut In "Senor Daredevil" Tomorrow Don't let. the fact that "Senor Daredevil" which opens at the Re- gent theatre tomorrow night clas- sified as a "Western" keep you from | seeing the picture. If 'you like "Western's you will have the time of your life watch- ing this one. If you don't like "Westerns", but care for a good story told in stirring action, thrill- ing suspense, genuine characteriza- tion and sincere emotions, then you can forget about locale of 'Senor Daredevil" and enjoy this picture to the full. The picture is something new for a studio such as First National to produce, and introduces their new star, Ken Maynard, to the picture going public. Maynard is a very personable chap, good looking, and a realy remarkable horseman and athlete. In "Senor Daredevil" he is supported by beautiful Dorothy Devore and his cream colored horse "Tarzan", Such favorites as Shel- don Lewis, Josef Swikard of "Four Horsemen" fame and J. P. McGowan appear in other roles. The screen has never had a cow- boy actor as fine as Ken Maynard. He can ride, rope, shoot and is as fast as a prairie cyclone. In "Senor Daredevil" he stars in what we term an 'Innovation Western" bringing back the old West and making it live for you with all the color and firee that blazes in the romantic minds of every person who attends TOMORROW -/ Ente rtainment KEN MAYNARD A Tornado Of Action In This Whirlwind Western Drama AN OUTDOOR ENTIRELY Cc NEW PICTURE -- IT'S SUPER CYCLONIC ENTERTAIN- MENT In the Innovation WESTERN We Told You-- WE WERE GOING I'O PRESENT SOME- THING DIFFERENT FOLKS---Here It Is---SEE IT!
