BUTTLE THRILLER
Motion picture lovers who have
tired of problem plays, psychological
studies and the like, and who have
been crying for pictures containing
melodrara, romance action and thrills
y
will find all these in “The Knockout ”
y
which opened Saturday at the Lib
erty theatre.
Briefly, “The Knockout” is the
story of a prizefighter who goes to
the lumber camps of Canada as a
camp superintendent when ' his fa
mous right arm is injured. He falls
in love with the daughter of the
crippled owner of a large timber tract.
The fighter's employer is using him in
! an effort to put through a scheme
whereby he will take away the tim
ber holdings from the cripple. The
prizefighter knows nothing of the
plan but is scorned by the girl who
| thinks that he has blown up a dam
and jammed their logs, thus placing
her and her father at the mercy of
a scheming timber king.
Milton Sills leads the cast and is
ably assisted by John Philip Kolb and
