Activity in the LeConte Bay

WALLY BEERY’S MATIE
CLOWNING ON HIS OWN
-X
Raymond Hatton, teamed with
Wally Beery in a series of Para
mount comedy features four or
five years ago, became famous as
a stirrer-up of laughter. His
comedy antics served to bring
gaffaws and giggles by the mil
lion.
When the screen went verbose,
Hatton proved himself just as
competent a rib-tickler as he
had ever been in the days when
deafness was no handicap for
the film-goer.
One of the funniest parts he
has played was the gangster
crony of George Bancroft in
“The Mighty.”
Now he is repeating the
“tough guy” stuff in “Honey
moon Lane,” the Eddie Dowling
opus showing at the Coliseum
Theatre, Saturday, Sunday and
Monday. Hatton is seen as the
roughneck sidepartner of Lloyd
Whitlock, big city gambler who
goes to Eddie Dowling’s hotel in
the mountains to recuperate.
As such Hatton gets into a
number of farcicial situations—
aided by the mauling comedy
grotesqueries of George Kotson
aros, the former wrestling
champ, who also plays a bad
man trying to be good.
