SATURDAY, SEPT. 26 SESSUE KAYAKAWA in “His Debt.”
Moriyama (liayakawa), the gambling king, ruthless dictator in
his gorgeous palace of chance, fair with his patrons but utterly
merciless, had a single redeeming human characteristic—he paid
his debts—in full, as he collected in full. It wus a tradition of his
race that he pay what he owed, and when it came to a matter of
life, he gave a life for a life. A forceful, twentieth century drama.
SUNDAY, SEPT 28- WILLIAM S. HART ip “The Poppy Girl’s

vict in for a stretch of fourteen years. After ten years behind the
bars he is paroled and w alks once more into the world of living
men. He thinks he will find his wife and his pal ready to wel
come him. His pa) Ls waiting with outstretched hand. But his
wife «he has married the man who sent him up. Then—the big
motive In living—revenge!
