King's Theatre.

COMEDY AND THRILLS Jack Haley, Grace Bradley, William Frawley, Adrienne Marden and Onslow Stevens play the leading roles in "F Man," an hilarious new comedy about a boy who was not quite good enough to be a G man, which will be shown to-night at the King's Theatre. "F Man" presents as its hero a smalltown boy, and the adventures and misadventures he gets into in his private pursuit of Public Enemy No. 1 provides a sequence of delightful and amusing situations. He goes to the big city to become a G man, but succeeds only In making a pest of himself at the Department of Justice offices. Ultimately he actually helps in the capture of Public Enemy No. 1, thus redeeming himself and winning the girl. No one is more adept than Zane Grey in presenting primitive struggles of the vanished frontier days of Arizona. "Drift Fence," the second feature on the, programme, is one of the most engrossing stories that has come from the pen of this wizard of Western tales. Adventure, romance and humour are skilfully blended in this danger-bristling melodrama. Leading roles are enacted, by Larry "Buster" C'rabbe, Katharine De Mille, Tom Keene, Benny Baker, Gleen Erikson, Stanley Andrews, Richard Carle, and Effie_EUsler.
