Tanager Osjer announces today that he has booked this famous ther orchestra for a two day added attraction the latter part of March, COST $4,000,000 T0 MAKE PICTURE 87 Real Wartime Planes Are Used to Make Hell's Ange " "Hell's "Angels" is the stupen- dous drama of air-war which How- ard Hughes produced and pergon- ally directed at the staggering cost of $4,000,0000, and which required three years of continuous filming to complete. More than 100 daring pilots, in- cluding many of America's fore- most stunt flyers, took part in the thrilling air battles which are a spectacular feature of "Hell's Ane gels." A flying fleet of exactly 87 real wartime planes, including a glant German Gotha bomber and a Ger- man dirigible, was brought to- gether from all parts of the world and flown in this picture, More than $2,000,000 was ex- pended on aviation scenes alone, and another half million was in- vested in a dirigible sequence, which is a spectacular highlight of the film. This latter episode, in- cidentally, is the first authentic re- production of the famous wartime Zep raid on London. Howard Hughes, the 2b-year-old producer and "director of 'Hell's Angels," has shattered all records in time and money spent on a single picture. His prodigal out- lay is discussed wherever films are shown, and fans everywhere are eager to view the first multi-mil« lion dollar talkie. HELL'S ANGELS AT NEW MARTIN "Hell's Angels" And "Desert Vengeance" Fill or Bill --~ X Nearly three years in the make ing, and bearing an over-head cost of approximately $4,000,000 this lavish air-thriller is the screen sensation of the new era of talkies, It is more than three years since "Hell's Angels" was first launched ~--a8 & silent super. Subsequently the cast and story were revamped, and all the non-flying sequences re-fillmed, with sound and dialogue. Ben Lyon, James Hall and Jean Harlow are co-featured in the lead- ing roles and are supported by such well-known players as John Darrow, Lucien Prival, Jane Winton, Lena Malena, Douglas Gilmore, Stephen Carr, Tommy Carr, Pat Somerset, Granville Divis Lisa Gora, Wyndham Hall and others, . Approximately 187 aviators, and as many mechanics, including near ly every stunt flyer and ex-War ace available in America, partici- pated in the sky action of "Hell's Angels," which alone required 18 months to record. A Zepplin and a giant German Gotha bombing plane also figure prominently in mile-high action above the clouds: This is the larg- est air fleet ever assembled to per form in a private enterprise. DESERT VENGEANCE A few months ago two grande daughters of Jesse James, the fae mous outlaw of western pioneer days, were summoned to Holly~ wood, California, to enact roles in a picture based on the desperado's life. Of course they were charm ing and estimable ladies and did not approve of lawless deeds. As & matter of fact most "bad men" are a bit particular about the home atmosphere in which they rear their women and have a high regard for family life. It is upon just such a true-toe life theme as this that 'Desert Vengeance," Columbia's all-talke ing feature starring Buck Jones, showing at the Martin = Theatre, Saturday, is based. Jim Cardew, a desperate but picturesque king of the highway, is intrigued by an ine nocent-appearing and attractive young woman to whom he attribe utes all the virtues in the calen- dar. When the young lady of his cholece proves to be nothing mors' or less than a crook, no better than himself, he gives vent to what he considers righteous ing dignation. Eventually both young people are regenerated and decide thereafter to follow the straight and narrow path.
