SHARK FIGHT ONE OF
THRILLS IN FILM
A shark fight is one of the excit
ing scenes in "The Howdy," the Uni
versa! picture starring Gladys Wal
ton, which is being shown at the
Palace tonight. With five great
sharks circling about a small gaso
line launch, the crew try to evade
the huge creatures that threaten ev
ery moment to ov«rltte>i the little
craft and leave all of them to e
victims of their fiendish appetites.
When one man accidentally falls
overboard and into the fishing net
and when one great shark leaps up
on him, only to be grappled with by
another man who goes to the rescue
of the first, there are thrills enough
to cause even the most blase “fan"
to sit forward in his theatre seat.
There is nothing faked alrout this
scene; Jack Mewnr, leading man of
“The Rowdy” was a skilled shark
fighter during his youth in Honnfiilu,
where he was taught the trick of
killing them with a certain large j
knife of peculiar workmanship, es
pecially designed by the natives to
bring quick death to the dangerous;
monsters of the sen.
The Dancing Hortons will appear\
tonight in an entire new change ofi
program. They appear but once each
evening immediately after the first:
show.
