Cotton Letter
New York, Sept. 27.—Cotton ruled
easier during the first hour of the
short session on heavy realizing,
some hedging and professional sell
ing for a reaction.
The contracts were taken by scat
tered buyers through commission
houses. The map was cloudy with
more Tains shown in the southeast,
over an inch in Oklahoma City and
light rains in Texas. This, together
with prospects for more rain and
much colder in Arkansas, Texas and
Oklahoma, brought in renewed buy
ing in the second hour, sending
prices into new highs with early sell
«ra running to cover. The
of over four cents must certainly
come near discounting whatever de
crease there may be from the earl
ier crop expectations and technical
conditions are rapidly being revers
&d.

JACKIE COOGAN •? LITTLE POBINSON CRUSOE
JACKIE COOGAN HERE
MONDAY IN CRUSOE TALE
Jackie Coogan’s latest Metro-Gold
wyn picture, a Little Robinson Cru
soe," is the attraction at the Alamo
theatre for Monday of next week.
According to advance reports, this
production provides wonderful enter
tainment for all children young or
old.
The story has to do with Jackie,
who plays Mickie Horgan, orphaned
son of a San Francisco Police hero.
He sets out from San Francisco on
a tramp steamer bound for Austra
lia to visit his aunt. When they
reach the -tropics, however, a ty
phoon wrecks and sinks the ship,
taking down all on board with the
exception of Mickey and a black cat,
who drift away on an improvised
raft and strike the shores of a trop
ical isle.
Then come cannibals, and Satan
in all his demoniac glory, after he
beholds the doings of little Robinson
on the tropical man eating cannibal
island, will hide his face in shame.
For Jackie starts the ball rolling
and keeps everyone busier than a
vagrant pup with a pedigreed herd
of fleas parking on him.
<« KING OF WILD HORSES’’
AT THE ALAMO TODAY
An actor never before seen on
stage or screen and without previ
ous experience is said to walk off
with acting honors in “The King
°f Wild Horses,” Hal Roach's unique
an< * sensational feature drama show
in* today at the Alamo theatre.
This actor is Rex, a registered
Morgan stallion who, but a tew
weeks before the picture was as
wild and dangerous as a man eating
tiger.
Rex proved to be a born actor.
He has personality, s fiery spirit
that the camera caught. He worked
through scenes in a maze of moun
tain caverns and walked narrow
ledges where one false step meant
death hundreds of feet below. For
the climax of the drama he went

“FEET OF CLAY”
BILLED NEXT WEEK
"Feet of Clay," the latest pro
duction for Paramount by the man
who made “The Ten Command
ments,” will be shown next week at
the Alamo.
The story is one of New York
California and features Rod La Roc
q*e, Vera Reynolds, Victor Varceni,
Ricardo Cortez, Julia Faye, Theodore
Kosloff and Robert Edeson in the
principal roles.
The California episode consists of
exotic beach carnival scenes at Cat
line Island. You’ve never seen any
thing like it in all your born days.
The New Ybrk scenes flit, according
to the best DeMille standards of
dramatic contrast, between the Har
lem flat of Vera Reynolds and Bod
LaRocque and the luxurious home of
Julia Faye, Amy’s half sister, and
her husband, played by Robert Ede
son.
