You who saw her in "Hurricane Gal," "Hell Morgan's Girl," "Hearts of Humanity," and "Man, Woman, Marriage," will see an actress whose versatility knows no bounds. In her last picture, "Hurricanes Gal," she played the role of a tempestuous, dynamic daughter of a deep-sea skipper—a girl brought up on the briny deep.
In "The World's A Stage", which is now showing at the California Theatre, Miss Phillips plays an entirely different role. She brings out all the humanness—the vitality the
