The tickets went on sale yesterday and orders came from all parts of the country. Elmer C. Dial, a Long Beach capitalist and a former Oklahomaanian, sent in his check for the entire first row east ring side. An unknown lady purchased entire first row main floor. A Cypress delegation reserved the entire first row in balcony. There were many 4, 6, 8 and 10 seat orders. At the present rate, all seats will be sold by next week. Mabee did five miles of road work yesterday and is sure looking good. Ad Santel is preparing for the match of his life. He witnessed the last Mabee-Pudillo match and knows what he is up against. Ad has all the confidence that 12 years as undefeated champion could give to any man, but still he knows he is up against a human cyclone. Ad has the greatest defensive power of any wrestler of the day, but can he withstand the attack of the tigerish farmer lad? Gosh, it can't be figured. We will have to wait and see the results.

"Owls" are now tied for first place with Schneider's team for the championship of the Y. M. league. In the first inning, it looked as if the game would belong to the Live Yers as they grabbed 6 runs and continued their good luck in the second. The "Owls" began to rally and at the end pulled in 15 runs. The losing team scored 12 points. The heavy hitting of Newkirk and the excellent pitching of Moody, left handed demon, is the cause for the victory. Schneider's have a fast team as they have only been defeated by one team, the "Owls" and that was during the first games of the series. The Y. M. team defeated the H. S. team making them have only one defeat to Schneider's one. The tie will be played off next week.

DIRECT FROM THE KING A TRE, LOS ANGELES Also Harold Lloyd in "I VAUDEVILLE Fairyland "FOO Lower Cost of Higher Education Democracy's Need, Says Conwell IN direct contradiction to recent pronouncements for a college aristocracy, notably by President Cutten of Colgate University, is "Correspondence schools and part time schools, making earning and learning possible at the same time, are the solution." They re- IN direct contradiction to recent pronouncements for a college aristocracy, notably by President Cutten of Colgate University, is a declaration for higher education for all who will take it, made by Dr. Russell H. Conwell, noted lecturer and college president, on the eve of education week. Dr. Conwell declares that higher education is getting too high for the masses to reach, and advocates educational facilities which will bring the cost down to the level of the average student's pocket. "With the cost of a year in college hovering around $1,000, we are losing sight of our democracy of opportunity," he said. "When the average student can't afford to go to college we must bring college him, or government by the people will go out of business." Dr. Conwell, in his eightieth year, is contributing to democracy in education by enlarging the capacity of Temple University, Philadelphia, to 25,000 students. He started Temple University 38 years ago as a night class in a church basement. It now has 10,000 students, most of them working their way on a part time basis. "I have no quarrel with the universities," he continued, "except that they are out of reach of the masses. "Correspondence schools and part time schools, making earning and learning possible at the same time, are the solution. They represent real democratic education. Work is no handicap to study. "The greatest men in this country secured their education through the basic correspondence school principle—home study. Many of them have done this without the direction of effort and supervision which correspondence schools give. This being true, certainly it is possible for the average student to do as much under a staff of skilled instructors. "The faculties of correspondence schools of national standing compare favorably with those of the universities. Their influence penetrates to the remote quarters of the country. That means the open door to the best instruction for everybody. That is what I mean by democratic education." With one lecture, the internationally famous "Acres of Diamonds," which has been delivered nearly 6,100 times, Dr. Conwell has earned in 51 years $4,000,000. Every cent of this money, above expenses, has gone into Temple University. The Baptist Temple, of which Dr. Conwell has been pastor for 40 years, has the largest Baptist congregation in the world. YUCATAN BECOMES SECOND FLORIDA MEXICO CITY, Mex., Dec. 8. Quintana Roo is to outrival Florida as a garden spot if plans of the ministry of agriculture are carried out. A commission from this country is now in Florida to determine how that garden spot is run, with a view of proceeding to Quintana Roo to lay out plans which will turn that included land into the public eye. Recent explorations in Quintana Roo have convinced the Mexican government that there destorted corner of the Yucatan peninsula has many of the same natural conditions as has Florida and that this section of the republic could be made so attractive as to induce colonists to establish and build up a land as beauful and productive as the American peninsula. It is reported the territory of Quintana Roo is to be made into federal reserve land. SPECIAL ADDED FEATURE Return By Public Demand of Diminutive Yvonne Farr Celebrated Soprano Appearing in a Lovely Chinese Atmospheric Presentation. En Costume. Special Stage Settings and Effects especially for "Shadows" FROM THE KINEMA THEATRE, LOS ANGELES. Special Stage Settings and Effects especially for "Shadows" yd in "I Do" A Riot Comedy UDEVILLE VON STROHEIM'S GREATEST CLASSIC "FOOLISH WIVES" NEWEST COMEDY IN LINDER FEATURE In making the announcement that Max Linder, international screen comedy favorite, will be seen at the United theatre tonight and tomorrow in his latest laugh feature, "The Three Must-Get-Theres," his first production for Allied Producers and Distributors Corporation, the theatre management also adds the statement the public will be given an opportunity to see a screen comedy moulded along absolutely different lines than found in the usual offering of this type. "The Three Must-Get-Theres" is a dashing smashing burlesque on the famous story "The Three Musketeers". This, of course, is indicated by the title, but it is stated that the comedy version follows the Dunnas story very closely. Even the burlesque names of the various characters are closely akin to those in the great romantic story. Max Linder himself plays the leading role of D'Artagnan but calls himself Dart-in-Again. The three musketeers are known in this fun special as Walrus, Octopus and Porpoise. The picture has a real, connected story, and is not just a succession of disconnected events pulled in for comedy prop purposes. There are big and beautiful settings and photographic effects. In short, it is claimed, the public will see a real photoplay, with more laughs to the minute than ever happened before, and also replete with thrills and action. REDUCED HOLIDAY FARES Reduced holiday fares will be in effect on the S. P. for Christmas. PROTECT MOTHERS IS LABOR PROBLEM WASHINGTON, Dec. 8.—The genus of "Tillie the Toller" is increasing all the time, according to See of Labor James J. Davis. One-fourth of the wage earners of America are women. That means problems. Hence on Jan. 11, 12, and 13, there will be a "woman in industry conference" held here. Says the secretary of labor: "Every thinking American must realize that this situation creates a number of special problems and calls for careful consideration of ways and means for safeguarding the mothers and the potential mothers of the nation who must be so employed. It is impossible to separate entirely the problems of our motherhood from the problems of our childhood, and there is nothing more important in our civilization than the strength of both of these in their strength and purity. The future of the nation depends on this more than on any other single factor." Naturally the Woman's bureau of the labor department is taking the lead in this conference. Miss Mary Anderson, chief, has sent out invitations to all woman's organizations in the country. No discrimination is shown. Both the National Women's party and the Consumers league, as well as the National League of Women Voters, will be represented. It is well known that many of these women's organizations are opposed to "blanket equal-rights legislation" which is sponsored by the National Woman's party.
