Man Of Steel Qeorge Bancroft, “The Mighty” had to learn all about hot rivets when he was making his latest picture, “Ladies Love Brutes” which .comes to the Abbeville Opera House, Friday only. In “Ladies Love Brutes” the burly star with the lusty laugh and husky fists appears as a structural steel worker who builds up a con tracting business of his own and becomes very wealthy. He strives for recognition in high society and falls in love with a lovely daughter of the rich. This romance leads him into new difficulties. The climax is a sur prising one and very thrilling. Mary Astor, Fredric March, Stan ley Fields, Ben Hendricks, Jr., David Durand and Freddie Burke Frederick support the star. txt Designs for small boys’ suits originated by the home economics specialists of the U.
