It is the story of a youngster alone and unaided, rids a little Western town of a band of evil-doers and wins for himself a beautiful bride. A classy array of vaudeville will be headed by Johnnie Burns in "Comedy Character Impressions." The Superior Character Comedian — James C. Fulton and Co. in "Any Girl's Papa." A pleasing little skit well played by a clever company. Medell Thompson, a blackface comedian in "The Black Ace," is known as the young Bert Williams. A Musical Comedy Novelty is presented by "The Musical Zanes" a company of real musicians. Their repertoire ranges from classic to the modern rag. Clifford and Purtell, is a little Irish-Night-in-Gale from far-off Emerald Isle, and sings a number of beautiful selections. She is ably assisted bv that clever comedian Mr. Clifford. Burt and Hyman — "The Incomparable Pair" are seen in one of the cleverest hand balancing and bymnastic exhibitions in vaudeville. The World in Motion and a comedy photoplay conclude the bill. Universal's tremendous picturization of Victor Hugo's great classic, "The Hunchback of Notre Dame," is destined to establish a new record. "The Hunchback," backed by a marvelous reception at the hands of the critics, has created a furore with the general public. Lon Chaney, as Quasimodo, the hunchback bell-ringer of Notre Dame Cathedral, has scored the greatest success of his career from every standpoint. His makeup is a marvel of realism, his own personality being entirely submerged in that of Hugo's famous character. Patsy Ruth Miller, Norman Kerry, Brandon Hurst, Ernest Torrence, and all the other seventyfive principals in the exceptional cast win new laurels for characterization in their various parts. The film, with it's tremendous, epoch-making settings, gorgeous costuming, and wonderfully-handled mob scenes, forms a background against which move a cast that is a veritable vvho's-who of filmdom. Buster Keaton's new feature comedy, "Our Hospitality," the second under his new alliance with Metro, is something entirely new in the comedy field. This production is built out of the humorous side of American life in the early '30's. For the first time Buster makes screen love to his wife, Natalie Talmadge Keaton. Natalie plays the feminine lead, while other members of the Keaton family appearing in the film are Baby Joe (Buster II) and Buster's father. Joseph Keaton. Others in the cast are Joe Roberts, Kittie Bradbury, Jean Dumas, Ralph E. Bushman, Craig Ward and Jack Duffy. Jack Blystone directed "Our Hospitality." Buster plays a fashionable youth of the pioneer days, known as the railroad building era. As an added feature, in order to make next week "hilarity week" throughout Los Angeles, Loews State Theater will present Mack Sennett's latest comedy, "One Cylinder Love" which serves to reintroduce to screen fans the famous Sennett Bathing Beauties. The Leviathan orchestra, the foremost of a group of Paul Whiteman orchestras engaged to play on the United States Shipping Board liners are the special headline feature of the Hillstreet. The Leviathan orchestra, as its names implies, has been selected as the group of Whiteman jazzers to dispance dance music aboard the giant liner and is only playing a few vaudeville dates under the direction of the U. S. Shipping Board before returning to its trans-Atlantic voyages. In conjunction with the regular dance music there are several soloists, vocal as well as instrumental, and an especially fine saxophone quintette. Morton Downey, a tenor with a sensational lyric voice discovered by Paul Whiteman is the featured vocalist. D. Apollon, the mandolin wizard and Russian dancer assisted by the Misses Aamona, Bacon and Pavlow will offer "Bi-Ba-Be," a novelty divertissement of color, singing and dancing. "The Weak Spot," a dramatic one act oddity written by George Kellov, will be presented by Geo. Harrington, Delia Evans and Lydia Willmore. Jack George, a blackface comedian assisted by Mae Normandie; Nat Carr, singing character comedian and Bernard Bollen's leaping canines will complete the bill. The feature photoplay for the week will be "The Six Fifty" with Renee Adoree and an all star cast. So welcome is the Harold Lloyd brand of comedy to Los Angeles and her million people, that his latest mirth-quake, "Why Worry?" swings into its seventh great week tomorrow, at Grauman's Rialto. Ever since Lloyd started on his career as a film comedian he has steadily traveled forward and "Why Worry?" is his most ambitious production. There are big sets, elaborate backgrounds and six reels of fun in which the star was assisted by John Aasen, the young giant of huge proportions, and pretty Jobyna Ralston. The latest musical comedy production at the Burbank Theatre is one of the merriest ever devised for the famous Baby Dolls. The production "Couldn't be Sweeter." So evidently a good measure of entertainment is in store for musical comedy patrons. The illuminated runway presents the Baby Dolls in new special dances and a flashy set of wardrobe creations.
