With the unrelenting ferocity of an
imals untamed, and the uncompromis
ing cruelty of the jungle itself, “Dev.
il Tiger,” Fox Film’s saga of the
wilderness, crashes across the screen
of the Southern Pines Theatre Mon
day, Tuesday and Wednesday, Feb.
19, 20, 21 with a Tuesday matinee.
It is an engagement of the picture
that has been hailed as the most
terrific of all animal productions
“Devil Tiger” is the record of a
group of people who cut their way
through the tangles of the Asiatic
jungle, woven by untouched nature
for thousands of years. It is the pic-
turization of man’s latest battle with
the elements that have baffled ex
plorers for centuries. Animals, rep
tiles, insects as large as your hand,
wei-e the daily fare of the three,
thrown from the safety and com
fort of civilization into the menac
ing elements of a wild world.
Featuring a cast that has not been
equalled since its release of “State
Fair,” Fox Film’s latest production,
“Carolina” plays a return engage
ment at Southern Pines Thursday,
Friday and Saturday, Feb. 22-23-24,

characterizations; Robert Young and
Richard Cromwell, _ two of the

rietta Crosman, who will be rcmem-
bei'ed for her performance in “Pil-
grmiage" Mona Barrie, Australian
star; and Stepin Fetchit, in a come

these head the cast. The story con
cerns a Southern family who live in
the glory of the past, but in the
poverty of the present.
