Ann Corio, arstwhile "loveliest
lady of burlesque," came to the
screen of the State Theatre today
(Friday) at theater of‘Call of the
Jungle,” an unasouHy interesting
drama of the South Sana. Produced
by Monogram, the picture is vastly
(Messing from a scenic standpoint,
and is filled with n succession of
thrilling situations incident to the
solution of a murder which occurs
early in the story. . ,
Briefly, the plot concetto* the
theft of sacred pearls on an island
*
in the South Pacific, and the
solved killing of a renegade pearl
trader. Among the few whites liv-
ing on the island, Mtss Corio and
a police officer join forces in trackr
ing down the criminal, beginning
• romance and an exciting aeries
of events, which finally result in n
surprising climax. The atmosphere
of the South Sens la wall preserved,
and the experienced east fill their
roles with conviction.
James Bush pteya the principal
male role as the local peace officer.
