ZANE GREY’S BESTSELLER IS SCREENED Thrills of Hard-Riding Old West Featured in ‘Arizona Raiders.’ PALACE THEATRE SAT. SEPTEMBER 19TH. Larry Crabbe and Marsha Hunt head the cast of a new thrill-filled, hard-riding Zane Grey Western, 41 The Arizona Raiders,” scheduled to open Saturday at the Palace Theatre. The story presents Crabbe fans with a plot packed with novel angles. A rope is around the hero’s neck as the picture opens; he makes a break and eludes the posse that has planned to hang him for supposed horse theft despite his protests of innocence. He has ridden only a short time before he comes on an other group, intent on hanging a second man, Raymond Hatton. Sur prising the party, he makes good Hatton’s release. The two become saddle-mates and head for Arizona and safety. In the first Arizona town they reach, Hatton gets jailed for shoot ing up a saloon and Crabbe is forced to free; him by sending a herd of cattle stampeding through the main street, to demolish the town’s lockup. Because Hatton, in jail has promised to aid young Jphnny Downs in eloping with Marsha Hunt’s sister, they ride to the ranch of Miss Hunt and get jobs. There they uncover a plot to steal the girl’s herd of fine horses. In the plot that follows they outwit and outshoot the band of rustlers, bring a happy ending of the ro mances of Crabbe and Miss Hunt and Downs and her sister, Jane Rhodes, meanwhile rounding up the ■“raiders.” BETTE DAVIS AND WILLIAM AGAIN IN SAME PICTURE Palace Theatre Today and Tomor row, September 17th and 18th.
