Transcript:

PAVILION, SELSEY. "TEN LITTLE NIGGERS," which is adapted from Agatha Christie's ingenious story, comes to the Pavilion, Selsey, on Monday. Barry Fitzgerald is admirable as an old judge and Walter Huston gives an excellent performance as the doctor. The programme includes a news reel of the thrilling fight of Woodcock versus Lesnevich. Thursday's feature, "TWO YEARS BEFORE THE MAST," is an exciting film about the conditions of the merchant seamen in the early 19th century. Alan Ladd, Brian Donlevy and William Bendix make an excellent trio in portraying the rough and tough life aboard the brig ' Pilgrim'. One of the highlights of this film is the 'mutiny' scene.
