"I suppose if you hadn't landed on top of the Double A League after a sweep off home shoes you never would have had the move to tackle the Irish drillers. Well, all I can say is that my Sunday evening; you will be welding; you shall never agreed to an game at all. As to Hughes and Salveson, I could go in there and train either one of them with one match this weekend any book." Strong words, Doc: strong words! WILLARD SURE OF CALL OVER WILLS NEW YORK, Jan. 31—There is much talk of Jack Dempsey appearing in three nights here this summer. The chances are that he will take part in the comedy and beat it well again for the movies. There is much melting on the part of Jack Dempsey for a fight with Harry Willis, too. That will not take place, you can bet on that. Dempsey will fight but some here this summer. That is all the traffic can bear. The chances are that Dempsey and Willis will fight in June Boyle's thirty-acre sunny town no more than these heavyweight champion- ON THE SCREEN ELAINE HAMMERSTE TONICHT ONLY!

"SECRET'S OF PARIS" COMING TO UNITED "SECRETS OF PARIS" COMING TO UNITED The United Theatre announces that "Secrets of Paris," the greece version of Eugene C. Sue's most famous novel, "The Mysteries of Paris," is due in this city tomorrow. Here is a photo-play that should whet the appetites of every motion picture fan, for the book has been read by thousands of persons during the past fifty years, and stands today as one of the most popular stories of love and romance. "Secrets of Paris" is a production of Charles C. Burr and Whitman Bennett, two of the rising motion picture producers of the day. These two Americans stand for the very best to be had in the motion picture field, and above all else are for clean films at all times. They aim to make the story the true theme of their productions as shown in the screen version of Sue's masterpiece. Mr. Bennett spent at least two years planning the making of this picture. One year alone was spent in the writing of the scenario. Those who are familiar with Eugene Sue's book will readily see that none of the thrilling scenes have been eliminated for the sake of ginger-bread display, and that each scene logically fits into the other. "Secrets of Paris" should prove one of the finest productions that has ever been seen in this city. 32 NEW WELLS STARTED Oil field operations reported week ending Jan. 27 show 32 new wells started, compared with 28 previous week.
