FOR THE IVIES
► R, Hutchins, of Los Angeles, and

► Mr. Hutchins is the advance agent ■

looking the country over and gather- j
ing necessary data with the view of i
making this country a second Califor- '
nia for staging moving' picture seen- ;
arias dealing, more especially, with
Alaska plays wherein deeds of daring,
fights, escapes and love scenes play
an important part.
“If I find what we want in this sec
tion,” said Mr. Hutchins,” we will be
back in the spring with the stars and
soubrettes, subs and staging neces
sary to take advantage of nature’s
apt setings surrounding your re
markable city.”
Mr. Hutchins said that he had sev
'eral scenarios in view that would be
adaptable to this scenery and in addi
tion to this made the remark that
many thousand feet of film and scenes
were taken annually and the story
later built around around the pictures. ,
“CHECKERS” REPLETE
WITH EXCITING SCENES
“Checkers,” a play overflowing with i
editing incidents and stirring situa- f
tions from start to finish, portraying i
I race track scenes in their various I
i phases, will be the film attraction at |1
the Empress this, Tuesday and V.'ed- i;
] I nesday evenings. 11
When presented' on the stage as a !:
□lay, the success of Checkeis was h
! overwhelming, and stands today as a j (
! monument to the genius of its author, j 1
Henry Blossom. This writer nas real | i
creative genius and every line in his j i
productions is worthy of serious! t
thought and not always intended to 11
provoke laughter. The name of Au- |;
gustus Thomas, America’s disting-! (
uished playwright, under whose guid- (
ance and personal direction Checkers ;
was produced for the camera, is suffi- i
cient guarantee of its worth and
I value. 1
