Witwer, author of Universal's "The Leather Pushers," the series of 12 two-reel romances of society, col- lege life and the prize ring, the first of which will be seen at the Martin Theatre next Monday, i$ the exponent of a self-made theory of life. Witwer says: "Find out what you can do best, and stick to it!" Witwer, now one of the most suc- cessful fictionists in the country, evolved his theory from a career as variable as that of any Jack-of-all- trades. As he puts it, he "dissolved out" of St. John's College in Philadel- phia into the prize ring, from which, when he began to realize that his pugilistic gifts were limited, he be- came a soda clerk, Shortly after coming to New York, he obtained a position in the sporting department of the New York Ameri- can, where his original style and lucid articles upon sporting events soon gave him a national reputation, but not a pocketbook fatter than the usual newspaperman, It was at this point in his career that his theory began to take form. Mrs. Witwer--to whom he gives full credit for his modicum of success-- suggested that he write stories in just the same, breezy manner in which he related them to her. He tried it, and the first story was accepted. So was the second, and those succeeding. Then came fame, appointment to cover cer- tain aspects of the war by Collier's Weekly, his first book and success. Universal is distributing "The Leather Pushers," the entire series of which was directed by Harry Pollard, The first one will be followed by eleven others, each depicting some step in the career of Kane Halliday, college athlete, who, as "Kid" Roberts, be- comes heavyweight champion of the world under the tutelage of one Joe Murphy.

AT THE REGENT "My Old Kentucky Home," a hu- man drama of mother love was writ- ten by Anthony Paul Kelly, the man who prepared "Way Down East" for the screen, It is a story which is destined to become as popular as the famous ballad after which it is named. Shown at the Regent Thea- tre, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Mr. Kelly, for the past ten years has been identified with numerous motion picture successes and his name is probably better known to- day than any other screen writer. Kelly's first screen story was an adap- tation of "The Sea Wolf," Jack Lon- don's famous story. Success came from the start. His first original screen story was "The Soul ofna Woman," in which Emily Stevens was the star. He has adapted more big stories for the screen than any other American writer of his age. He is still in twenties. Among his stories are "The Great Divide," "The Thief, "Raffles," "The Man of the Hour." My Old Kentucky Home "Weep no more my Honey." Coming along at bhreak-neck speed in a field surmounted with class is "My Old Kentucky Home," one of the season's greatest human dramas of mother love named after the fam- ous ballad which will be shown at the Regent Theatre Thurcday, Friday and Saturday. "My Old Kentucky Home' will make your blood tingle with excite- ment, will arouse your sympathy and give you an insight into a real South- ern romance such as you only read about. It's a story of the South told in all the homely spirit that only Southern stories can reveal and is enacted by an all-star cast headed by Monte Blue, one of the country's favorite screen actors. It tells the story of a son of a Southern widow who has been rail- roaded to jail, who is too proud to £0 home and tell what happened and right there he gets homesick and longs for the comfort of a loving mother. He is about to plunge into the depths of the underworld when he hears the strains of "My Old Kentucky Home" He goes home but keeps the secret His former sweetheart is overjoyed at seeing him, but the villian, whe is a desperate smuggler, holds the whip hand over the boy when he tells him he will expose hi mif he does not de- sist paying attention to the girl.
