MAJESTIC THEATRE.^ "Way Qut West," William Haines' latest picture, will be shown finally tonight. It is the comedian's first attempt at a cowboy role Although Aletro-Goldwyn-Mayer had placed the comic star in almost every sort of uniform and athletic outfit, it was not until the filming of this picture that he had the opportunity to wear spurs and sombrero. The story is a comedy of the modern west, with Haines as a circus "spruiker' who gets into trouble and is forced to work on a Western .ranch. His love affair with the feminine "boss 'is enlivened by his education as a cowboy, a thrilling rescue race, an attempted lynching, and some riding feats that amaze.
