Dover in “The Spaniard." ~

Cross-word pussle lsns soon win
be asking for a word of eight letters
meaning "a. new type of lover." The
correct word is "Spaniard."

To say that a man is "a Spaniard"
does not now mean that he is a na-
tive to Spain. It means that he is
handsome in appearance. daring in
manner. noble in sentiment. incon-
testsble in honor and irresistible in
love.

The inspiration for the term is
Ricardo Cortes’ title role in "The
Spaniard." the new Raoul Walsh
production for Paramount. playing
for the last times today at the Re—
gent Theater.

Hollywood folk who have watched
motion picture add words to the
American vocabulary. predict that
soon after this picture is shown the
phrase “He's a Spaniard!" will sweep
into immediate popularity just as did
e word "sheik" come into use
alter the picture by that name.
Cortes is featured with Jetta Gou-
dal and Noah Beery in "The Span-
iard." which is a. picture version of
the novel of the same name by Jus-
nita snare. .
