SCHOOL BENEFIT PICTURES Great men and the main events of the past thirty years live again on the screen in “Crown and Glory,” a picture made from actual film records of British history, from Queen Victoria’s reign to the present day, which will be the main feature of the Geraldine D.H.S. benefit programme at the Municipal Theatre to-morrow evening. The cavalcade of events commences with the coronation of Edward VII., shows the murder of Archduke Ferdinand at Serajeva, actual battle scenes in the Great War, and authentic film records of the Battle of Jutland. Concluding scenes include King George's silver jubilee, the rise of Hitler, the Abyssinian War, the abdication crisis and the accession of King George and Queen Elizabeth. The second feature, “Timothy’s Quest,” is a drama of an orphan enduring cruelty and hardship to bring love and happiness to his sister.
