EMOTIONAL AND POWERFUL
* HIS GREATEST GAMBLE ' FOR GRAND One of the most virile and popular players on the screen, Richard. Dix, takes the leading role of ‘ His Greatest Gamble,’ which commences on Wednesday at the Grand. Cast in an emotional role of a wastrel father whose only redeeming trait is his intense love for his daughter, Dix gives one of the finest performances of his career. His pathetic and constant guardianship over her even when he is in prison forms the theme of a most emotional story. The part of the small girl is taken by Edith Fellows, a talented juvenile player who has a voice of exceptional range and clarity. She sings the more, difficult operatic arias with an ease' which stamps her as a vocal artist of great promise. Included in the supporting cast is Bruce Cabot, Erin O’Brien Moore, and Shirley Grey,
