STRAND THEATRE

DOUBLE-FEATURE PROGRAMME Memories of Rin Tin Tin and Strongheart, great Alsatian shepherds who thrilled audiences with their portrayals in the old “ silent V days, returned when Monogram’s Jack London story, “Sign of the Wolf,” was told at the Strand Theatre yesterday. Michael Whalen, Grace Bradley (Mrs Hopalong Cassidy,” Bill Boyd), Mantan Moreland, and little Darryl Hickman play the leading, human roles in this adventurous story of the snow-blad Canadian out-back, but two wonder Alsatian dogs, Smoky and tjrey Shadow, grandson and great-grandson respectively of Strongheart, rival these players for the honours # of the lilm. Small-town girls with big-town ideas in war-time Washington furnish the hilarity and excitement; in Universal s action comedy, “ Get Going, the supporting feature. Comical romantic happenings behind • the scenes of the world’s busiest city are effectively enacted in this new fun film, which features Robert Paige, Grace McDonald, and Vera Vague. The first episode of the thrilling new serial, Penis of Nyaka,” was an added attraction to a fine all-round programme.
