THE EMPIRE, RIVERTON "Old Bones of the River,” featuring Will Hay, will be screened at Riverton tonight. This beloved English comedian appears in his most popular role. The film is adapted from Edgar Wallace’s West African tale “Lieutenant Bones” and has for its locale an ancient West-African village surrounded by war-like natives ready to start a rising at the slightest provocation. Will Hay is the shepherd of a flock of black sheep. It is a deluge of fun and laughter.
