Transcript:

PAVILION, SELSEY. Entertainment on Monday for three days is provided by "ANGEL AND THE BADMAN," the realistic story of a man who, determined to avenge a killing, learns the courage of peaceful life through the devotion of an unspoilt Quaker girl. Enacted before an Arizona background in Western times, the picture brings together John Wayne and Gail Russell with Harry Carey. When Harry Faversham (John Clements), who comes from a long line of soldiers, resigns his commission on the eve of his regiment's departure to join Kitchener, his three best friends send him white feathers, and even his fiancee thinks him a coward. His efforts to reinstate himself as a man of courage is excitingly recorded in "THE FOUR FEATHERS," to be screened for the remainder of the week in Technicolor.
