THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 15, 1927 NEW MARTIN THEATRE-- ria THE BLOOD SHIP "The Blood Ship," Columbia Pic- tures' great sea special, which comes to the New Martin Theatre on Mon- @ay for a three day run, revives the romance of the bygone days of clip- per ships, when these speedy ves- sels carried the flag of the United States merchant marine to the four corners of the world--and the cap- tain was monarch of his domain. Adapted from Norman Springer"s novel of the same name, "The Blood Ship" scenes are laid along the water-front of San Francisco in the early '80's, in a sailors' lodging house run by "The Knitting Swede' (a real character who lived in San Francisco in those days), and on board the old clipper ship "The Golden Bough." To give the required realism in setting, the clipper ship '"Bohemia" was rented by Columbia Pictures. rechristened "The Golden Bough," for purposes of the picture, and provided the setting for the érew's mutiny, a memorable battle on ship. board, and other highlights of the alot, » "The Buhemia" is a real clipper ship, having been built in 1875, at Bath, Me., .by the firm of Hough- ton Brothers & Co.

THE MISSING LINK 'That Syd Chaplin is a genius In portraying various roles is no more a matter of conjecture with the movie-going public. His great work in "Chanley's Aunt' as well as "The Man On The Box" and "Oh, What a Nurse" followed by the rough- neck, lovable, pemsive, chuckling 'harazter of Old Bill in "The Better | "Ole" has left him endeared to the public who now eageriy await the coming of any picture he is to ap- pear in. Now comes another Syd Chaplin, In "The Missing Link" he offers an entirley new brand of mirth, or rather than entirely individual in- terpretation, He elaborates the power of fear, He is first seen along the London docks as a temperamen- tal rhymster out ef a job. Lord Dryden, a famous hunter, on his way to African jungles, hires him to carry his luggage aboardship. Timorous Arthur is no sooner on deck than an escaped monkey leaps upon his shoulders causing him such panic that he hides in a closet in Lord Dryden's cabin. He 1s no soon- er there than the ship puts out to sea. . There is Beatrice, for whom Ar- thur at once feels exaggerated love, there is the huge chimpanzee whom Arthur believes to be the "Link", there is the real "Missing Link", a grotesque monster, there are lions and head-hunting savages and all the denizens of the wild country. How Syd meets, trembles, copes with, and finally wins undeserved lionors, make a right royal burles. gue, huge. Gargantuan, and unbe- lievably mirth-provoKing. Let no one who enjoys real, rol- licking, rough-neck hilarity stay away from the Regent theatre next Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday evenings, when "The Missing Link" Chaplin's big new laugh-thriller will be shown at regular admission prices. Broadway has acclaimed this jungle jamboree the funniest of all Chaplin's laughter pieces. It is a riot of fun, a positive scream, a joy feast you should not miss. Jimmy Adams in "Meet The Folks" a shorter film of unchecked "Charley's Aunt"; you chuck- og with him in "The Man on the Box"; you roared with de- light at him in "Oh! What a Nurse!" you howled with glee at him in "The Better Ole." --Now you'll laugh, chuckle, roar and howl as never before. As F, unny As "The Better ~ But Differen t! MONDAY, TUESDAY WHAT OTHER N.Y.

THE 'AUDITORIUM ORTHOPHON IC VICTROLA AT THE REGENT Though the Orthophonic Victrola now on display at the Regent Theatre has sufficient volume to be heard for over a mile when turned on to its ful- lest extent, it was convincingly proved last night that it was equally adapted to theatres* and assembly halls. A large and enthusiastic audience greet- ed this newest creation of the Victor Talking Machine Company, and un- animously agreed that the power and tne-quality of this amazing machine bad not been exaggerated. The appreciation of the audience was unmistakeably evidenced by their continuous applause, and by their in- -- fo ---- sistent demand for encores. The re- cords were chosen with the object of showing the marvelous range of the Orthophonic victrola, and included vocal and instrumental selections, one record in particular giving the un- canny feeling that a huge pipe organ had been installed in the Regent Theatre, Oshawa 4s indebted to Mr. D. J. Brown, the well-known phonograph dealer, for theprivilege of hearing the #Auditorium Orthophonic Victrola, which will remain at the Regent Thea- tre urtil Saturday night. Mr. Brown extends a cordial invitation to every- one to visit his store and inspect the smaller models which are now on dis- play. laughter will serve to heighten the | high spots of the splendid bill being | presented at the Regent the last half of next week, which will be nicely blended by Pathe News and suitable music by the Regent or- chestra, $ "THE FRONTIERSMAN" AT REGENT THEATRE Reminiscent of the Indian warfare in the early days when the United States were "in the making," "The Frontiers- man," now showing at the Regent, presents a vivid picture of the struggle for supremacy between the Redskins and the Whites, The story follows the actual historical events of that time very closely, and shows the after- math of the massacre of the entire garrison of Fort Mimms in 1813 with startling fidelity. Through the. pic- ture runs the love-story of the beau- tiful daughter of the commandant at Fort Mimms, cruelly murdered. by the Indians, and Captain John Dale of the Tennessee Militia. The cast is well selected, with lovely Claire Wind- sor playing the part of the heroine, and Tim McCoy as the gallant Cap- tain, The storming of the Indian fort at Tohopeka by the troops under General Andrew Jackson, is particu- larly thrilling, and Dale's rescue of the fair Lucy from the bloodthirsty Redskin chief, draws gencrous ap- plause from the thrilled spectators, " The Topical pictures, are, as usual, cxeellent, especially those showing "H.M.S. Rodney," the latest addition to he Royal Navy, and aerial views of the new Southampton docks, with five of the largest Atlantic liners all berthed at the same time. Perhaps the feature of the enter- tainment was the Auditorium Ortho- phonic Victrola. The-volume and tone of this wonderful instrument is re- markable. « Columns of description would be all too inadequaté to give cven a faint idea of the marvelous performance of this latest product of the Victor Talking Machine Com- pany's workshops, and no one should overlook this opportunity of hearing this remarkable instrument on Fri- day and Saturday evening at the Re- gent Theatre, PLEASES CAPACITY FIRST NIGHT CROWD No film seen here in recent. months seems to have won its first audience quite so thoroughly as that one which opened last night at the SYD CHAPLIN In 2 scene from his mirth provoking comedy scream "The Missing "Link" coming to the Regent Monday evening to remain for the first half of next week, New Martin Theatre for three days. |} -- It is an adaptation of the story by James Oliver Curwood under the original title, "The Wolf Hunters." his is a Rayart picture with an all-star cast, a first-rate director pn ------ DANCING TONIGHT OSHAWA WINTER GARDEN os -- cms» RAGE, SEVEN -- ---- oo ------ Raa S------ DANCING EVERY TUESDAY - THURSDAY SATURDAY Gardens TONIGHT and certainly an excellent story to begin with.
