Transcript:

PAVILION, SELSEY. How a psychological shock affects the life of a lovely and charming girl, and develops into a compulsion to steal, is the basis of "THE LOCKET,” presented on Monday for three days. Baffling all suspicion until she is about to marry her third suitor, the heroine's dual personality is guarded from the men nearest to her until the last moment. As this most amazing woman, Laraine Day is said to have the finest emotional role of her career, the three men, whose lives are corrupted by her incorrigible tendency toward theft, are played by Brian Aherne, Robert Mitchum and Gene Raymond. Another thrilling exploit of Tarzan and his family in their familiar jungle setting, can be seen on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, entitled "TARZAN AND THE HUNTRESS". Tanya, a white woman, accompanied by two two men associates, comes to the jungle to trap wild animals, on a large scale, for zoos. To remove any opposition they assassinate a jungle King, and Tarzan immediately declares war on the white intruders.
