Here’s Your Chance
To Gel Nice Buffalo
SALT LAKE CITY, Utah. NOV.
12.—(UP.)— If somebody would
like a nice shaggy 1200 or 1,300
pound buffalo for a pet (but not to
eat), he need only ask.
One hundred buffalo from the
famous hertl in Yellowstone Na-
tional Park will be actually given
away. They can be used for any-
thing, but must not be killed.
The last buffalo calf crop of 250
brought the herd up to 1200—and
range forage' within the buffalo re-
serve can stand.
Park officials hope that most of
applications will be from zoos

ed me Mexico City authorities to

Winnie Lightner, the star of many
previous hilarious comedies enjoyed
by Cuero movie fans, is starred in
“Side Show-’ which is the feature
attraction for the first “Family
Night” \,o be staged at the Rialto
Theatre, Friday night. It is indeed
fortunate that the local booking
brings to the screen this favorite
comedienne in a typical hard-hit-
ting comedy for this occasion.
Co-starred with Miss Lightner is
Charles Butterworth famed for hLs
serio-comic fun making. Others in
the cast are Evalyn Knapp, Donald
Cook, Guy Kibbee and Louise
Carver.
“Side Show” which was written
by William K. Wells gives Miss
L'ghtner and Butterworth a grand
and glorious vehicke not only for
comedy but for tense drama apd
humanity. All the razzle-dazzle of
circus life accompanies the action
Winnie is periodically seen as can-
nibal, fire diver, wild woman, nurse
or wielder of the mitts. The end of
“Side Show” is a happy if ludi-
crous one—and the large cast
splendidly acquits themselves in
their picturesque roles.
A record crowd is expected Fri-
day night by Manager Nick Karl
who has arranged that entire fam-
ilies. may enjoy the evening’s pro-
gram for the nominal price of little
more than one admission.
