THE CRIMSON PLAYGOER

W. C. Fields and Chester Conklin are the protagonists in "Fools for Luck", the Paramount comedy at the Metropolitan is week. The team performs much as usual in a picture based on the adventures of a slick promoter who comes to a small town with a get rich quick scheme. A grip full of oil stock, the beautiful daughter of Huntersville's leading citizen, small town life de luxe, all these things are mixed up in a rather ordinary film which has a few lsolated laughs and moments of spirited action.

W. C. Fields has the role of the smooth tongued promoter who makes ordinary intelligent people pay good money for prettily engraved paper and smile about doing it. Chester Conklin is the substantial citizen who has a beautiful daughter, an unerring accuracy with a pool cue, and a wife with social ambitions.
