Realism Is Keynote Of Autry’s Latest Playing At Wells Gene Autry insists upon com plete realism, consistent with plot and dramatic requirements, in all his pictures. “Gene Autry and the Mounties,” newest of the star’s action dramas x for Colum bia Pictures, is no exception. The film, today and Saturday at the Wells Theatre, is an over- the-border adventure in which Autry, as a fightin’ mad Mon tana marshal pursuing a murder trail, joins forces with the famous Royal Canadian Mounted, police men to smash a renegade ring in snowcapped Canada. Autry pro vides an additional note of authenticity, by including in his picture a bit of Canadian history a plot to overthrow the Canadian government. There was such a conspiracy, hatched in the vio lence-riddled backwoods of Canada and smashed by the Mounties. Bullion stolen from U. S. wagon trains was used to finance the planned revolt, and this too is a major part of the excitement in “Gene Autry .and the Mounties The star rides into Canada to re cover the gold bullion. * Appearing in featured support of Autry are Pat Buttram, as his be whiskered sidekick; Elena Ver dugo, as the lovely daughter of a French • Canadian backwoodsman, Carleton Young, as a* leader of the killer band, and Richard Em ory, as a Mountie.
