PAGE EIGHT UNITED THEATER, 806 E. Center Last Time Tonight The Royal Stock Co. IN MARJORIE RAMBEAU'S SUCCESS 'THE SIGN ON THE DOOR' WITH EDYTHE ELLIOTT AND RODNEY HILDEBRAND AND A WONDERFUL PICTURE "PURITAN PASSIONS" WITH GLENN HUNTER TOMORROW NIGHT Neal Hart in "THE FIGHTING STRAIN" A POWERFUL DRAMA OF THE NORTH Strong Cast and Big Theme 'The Rapids' "The Rapids," which will be the feature film attraction at the Lim attraction at the United Theatre Thursday, is rapidly moving story of rushing torrents and big business. It is an adaptation of the popular novel of the same name by Alan Sullivan and produced upon the exact locations as called for in the book, namely, the little town of St. Mary's in Canada. It was produced by the Saulte Ste Marie Film, Ltd., directed by David M. Harford and distributed by the W.W. Hookinson Corporation.

Teams with only one or two outstanding basket shooters are feeling the effect of the new ruling. Already this season a number of important games have been lost because of a dearth of goal men. New coaches are constantly drilling their players in an effort to develop new basket scores. The mentors realize that a point scored by a goal after a foul may decide many contests. Thursday, is rapidly moving story of rushing torrents and big business. It is an adaptation of the popular novel of the same name by Alan Sullivan and produced upon the exact locations as called for in the book, namely, the little town of St. Mary's in Canada. It was produced by the Saule Ste Marie Film, Ltd., directed by David M. Harford and distributed by the W.W. Hootkinson Corporation. The management of the United theatre claims this production to contain many thrills and deep-rooted dramatic action which will please various tastes. It is a story about a big man who goes to the little town of St. Mary's and through his indomitable courage and personality wins over the populace to finance the harnessing of the rapids for power. As a result manmoth pulp mills are erected at his genius and the little town becomes quite a manufacturing center. However, greed and arraice of big business enters and spoil man is forced to give up, but not until he has rescued an ophthalmic baby girl from the Rapids. Through the entire story there runs a beautiful romance between this man and a very young girl, the belle of the village. Harry Morey has achieved remarkable popularity on the screen and plays the role of Clarke, the man who does great things. Mary Astor, who has created unusual comment on her beauty and acting ability, plays the leading feminine role, while others comprising the strong cast are Walter Miller, Harlan Knight and Prank Andrews. YES, WE'LL HAVE NO MORE GOLF SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 1.—No more golf playing. That may be the edict members of the San Francisco club of the Pacific Coast baseball league will face. If George A. Putnam, one of the owners of the Seals, has his way, the no-golf rule will go into effect at once, and be in vogue all around the year. Charles S. Strub and C. H. Graham, the two other club owners, however, like to swing their clubs and oppose Putnam in his scheme to put golf off the sport menu of the Seals. "Why have McGraw and Ty Cobb banned golf?" is the challenge of Putnam, who declares that the game itself may be beneficial, but charges there is too much attention given to it. "There’s too much golf talk," says Putnam. "Ball players who play their golf think and talk too much about golf and not enough about baseball." California golf courses have been announced by Arthur Harvey. University of California cagemen started the season with an overwhelming defeat of the Olympia club of San Francisco but the best the Bears could do was break even in two games with the University of Southern California. These quintets will meet again in Los Angeles on Feb. 19. California will play Standford at Palo Alto on February 9 and also on Feb. 25. They clash again in Oakland on February 26. California is weak in two respects. Captain Talt is the only certainty on the blue and gold five when it comes to scoring after a foul. The new goal-shooting rule has hit the Bears hard and Coach Wight is seeking new goal stars. California is extremely weak, too, in substitutes and it reserves almost a minus quantity. A cry of rough playing has been raised against the U.S.C basketball wizards. This may be true but at the same time California did not go any too well against the southerners. The U.S.C quintet must be figured it the coast race for honors this season. The Trojans have a powerful machine which will be heard from when the finals come along. With practically the same line-up as last season, with the exception of Hjelte, center, Oregon Angles cagers have a strong team. University of Washington players started the season with a string of hoop victories. Captain Prayne is the husky star. Genzaga hoopmen frightened Washington state the other night coming within one point of bending the Cougars. Shaffer, Oregon U guard, is playing a spectacular game. A H.S.VARSITY TO MEET MANUAL ARTS Coaches A.E.Fitzmorris and L.E.Sutherland will take the varsity crew and 130-lb.

who declares that the game itself may be beneficial, but charges there is too much attention given to it. "There's too much golf talk," says Putnam. "Ball players who play their golf think and talk too much about golf and not enough about baseball." California golf courses have been approved by Arthur Havers, British open champion, and James Ockenden, crack British player and open champion of France, who have been playing at various clubs up and down the coast. All of the California courses have been praised by the visitors, who pronounce western greens extremely sporty. John McHugh, California champion, says that of all the golfers he has seen, Arthur Havers comes closest to being perfect. McHugh declares that Havers plays all his shots with perfect ease and grace. The Briton weighs about 200 lbs., but he appears like a boy of half that weight when he swings. Ockenden, according to McHugh, has every shot in his bag and gives a finished play to each. A. H. S.

Cromwell's Univ. of So. Calif. track and field team has started practice with a brilliant past to look back upon and a promising future to look forward to. With the present season it might be said that track athletes at So. Calif. are entering a new era, for in the past the outstanding feature of Dean Cromwell's success each season lay in the fact that a number of his individual luminaries established enviable records for themselves, many of them being Pacific coast or world records. Starting with the present season, Cromwell's men not only will continue in the quest of individual records, but they are sufficiently strong as a team to hope to defeat both California and Stanford in their dual meets. Last year, as in seasons past, the Trojans had more first place men than either California or Stanford could produce. In that lay their glory. They never anticipated a team victory in points, and of course they never got it; but they did take delight in finishing first in a number of favorite events. This year the team is sufficiently strong in all events to hope, though indeed they may be unsuccessful when the moment arrives, to defeat either California or Stanford, or both. And at the same time each and every man will be out to better the existing U. S. C. record in his INVENTS FINISH RAPID SWIFT LOS ANGELES, Feb. 12. — And to facilitate the rapid movement of swift-like ocntrivance has benefited and patented P. Noming, a Lo Ancient.

As the legs are the pocket of the water and provide increased leverage in the swimmer forward, it is light and compact.

Bilt of New York, and of Boston. Vanderbilt's "Arra" outfitted for a cruise to West Indies, where there are sportsman plans rare marine specimens vate museum. The ohas been made ready sure trip to the Bahrain Indies. Waterfront Dane tried to purchase The dope from Baltimore is that Max Bishop, the star second sacker purchased by Connie Mack, is ready to step into a big league line-up regularly. It is pointed out that Bishop has been shining with the Orioles for four years—ever since he returned from war—and is now ripe. Connie probably was aware of this when he dug into his jeans for a small fortune to purchase Bishop. No one ever accused Connie of buying "sight unseen." Speaking of the Tigers, Ty Cobb smiles at news from Texas regarding the condition of Emory Rigney, his young shortstop star. Rigney was handicapped last season, low physical alliments, which included a bad hip. These alliments caused him to miss a couple of dozen games and hindered his fielding in many others. His batting, however, was above retract. In fact, he was the only member of the Tiger infield to hit over 300. Cobb is having his troubles finding a good second baseman. Were he forced to find a shortstop to fill Rigney's shows he would be hard pressed. However, word from Texas has it that Rigney has entirely recovered from the illness which afflicted him last season and X-rays and examinations by several doctors show him to be fit. He will start soon to take the baths at Marlin, Tex., to get in the pink early. Figure this one out: The Decatur, Three Eye League team won the pennant in that circuit last season with Charley Miller as manager. Recently Charley was notified that he wouldn't need next season. Decatur cornerback point out, however, that the team with which Miller started the season was entirely revamped by the club owners and would have won the pennant under any leader. And that's that. Just when Boston fans are raving about the grabbing off of Dudley Lee from Tuila by the Red Sox bosses word comes from Columbus, O., that James Geygan, a youngster with Aquinas college there, may give Lee a run for shortstopping honors at the spring training camp. James plays second, third or short, with much more than ordinary ability, his sponsors say. All four outfielders counted by Connie Mack for the coming campaign are right-hand hitters. Opposing managers take notice. Simmons, Strand, Miller, and Welch are the four—Simmons and Strand being the recent additions. Connie isn't worrying, however. "I don't care how they bat so long as they hit the ball," says the long gent. And, after all, this is the right philosophy. The ponies ploughed through a track of mud yesterday at the Calver City plant before a small gathering of rain-soaked fans. The racing program is not drawing with any better success since re-opening than it did at the start, and despite the assurance of the backers that it will continue throughout the scheduled 100 days, it looks as if the venture will go on the rocks shortly for all time. Joe Benjamin and Phil Salvador will stage their deciding battle Tuesday evening at Jack Boyle's Vernon fight palace. These boys have met three times. Each gained a victory and the last meeting resulted in a dead heat. Benjamin is out for blood, and is going to do or die, so it looks as if there will be real fireworks when they square off at the opening bell. 100-yard dash (9 3-5 sec.)—Howard Drew (1914) and Chas.

They never anticipated a team victory in points, and of course they never got it; but they did take delight in finishing first in a number of favorite events. This year the team is sufficiently strong in all events to hope, indeed they may be unsuccessful when the moment arrives, to defeat either California or Stanford, or both. And at the same time each and every man will be out to better the existing U. S. C. record in his particular event. Hoping to keep his athletes on edge throughout the season, Coach Cromwell has a record sheet posted in his offices. This sheet, printed on large canvas, bears the U. S. C. record in each event, as well as the name of the man who made it and the year in which it was made. As soon as a Trojan athlete betters one of these records, his name goes on that board in place of that of the man whose performance he has outskipped. In some events the records should fall this year. In others the marks are so good that they may stand for years to come. For instance, Ed Wingard's javelin record of 162 feet 5 inches should be broken with ease this year, not only by Wingard himself, but by Weinberg and Gerpheide as well. While on the other hand it is very unlikely that any of Cromwell's present crop of sprinters will touch the 100-yard dash record of 9 3-5, held by Howard Drew and Ocharley Paddock, or that any of them will come within a second of Paddock's wonderful world record of 20 4-5 seconds in the 220-yard dash. Not many schools in the United States can show a better record over a number of years than that which is represented by the canvas in Cromwell's office. These records will be of interest to track fans at this stage of the newender path season. They follow: 100-yard dash (9 3-5 sec.)—Howard Drew (1914) and Chas. Paddock (1921).

At first Guy kept going over and over the acre. What a fool his father had made of himself, he thought. How much better Mr. Chew had conducted himself. And then the next moment Guy had to admit his father's strength in power. The bay wagon had moved off in silence, but after a time they began to talk. Soon the accident began to develop humorous aspects. Guy now looked at Bar, she was curled up in the boy, a straw hat dangling on the back of her head. How strange and far away the swamell! We this the person he had held in his arms? who had so passionately lanced him eyes? whose voice over the telephone could make him squirm? the person into all a dream? Was this the person he was to grow old with? Why did she seem so aloof? He must touch her. Or should he be only dared put his hand on her openly. A prison able to touch her. He worked his hand under the bay until wagon joked and ranted her eyes and stalled her face solely. She raised his heart was beating fast, and he another world.

Noming, a Lo Angeles resident. The device, known as the Manning Duckfoot, is made of webbed cloth attached to a sleeve that buckles to the leg of the swimmer. As the legs are thrust out the pockets of the "fin" fill with water and provide considerable increased leverage in propelling the swimmer forward. The affair is light and compact. It is believed by Manning that his invention will find favor not only with life guards but also with water polo players and those who swim for recreation. TWO MILLIONAIRES NAME YACHTS SAME MIAMI, Fla., Feb. 5. — Two beautiful pleasure yachts, each bearing the name "Ara" and each the property of men of millions, were tied up together at the municipal docks here recently. The yachts belong to W. K. Vanderbilt of New York, and E. B. Dane of Boston. Vanderbilt's "Ara" has been outfitted for a cruise through the West Indies, where the millionaire sportman plans to collect rare marine specimens for his private museum. The other "Ara" has been made ready for a pleasure trip to the Bahamas and West Indies. Waterfront rumors say Dane tried to purchase the Yon. N.Y. BOXING LAWS MESS UP SPORT SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 5. — Pacific coast boxing fans are generally taking the position of finding themselves quite content with four and six-round bouts in view of the mess caused by solons in New York in attempting to revise boxing laws. Plans in New York include eliminating referees, furnishing equal pursues to opponents and otherwise playing havoc with boxing legislation. While the short bouts may leave something to be desired, boxing is flourishing up and down the Pacific and now there are perhaps more leather throwers and more successful clubs in operation from California to the Canadian line than ever before. Two clubs are giving weekly cards in San Francisco; Tommy Simpson is offering extremely attractive cards across the bay in Oakland and nearby there are clubs in San Mateo, Vallejo and other cities. The game is booming in Los Angeles, San Pedro and the southland in central and northern California fans are offered frequent entertainments. In Oakland the attendance has been something to talk about. At some of the recent cards hundreds of fans have been turned away and the S. T. O. sign has been hung even before the first prelim boys entered the ring. Dandy Dillon, midget boxer of Minneapolis, is one of the few eastern and middlewestern lads GIRLS KEEP BUSY The next several days will be busy for Coach Irene Jacques and her gym girls. Santa Ana will bring her hockey team for a practice this evening. Garden Grove and Anaheim have practice basketball game tomorrow evening. Puente is sending her diamond squad Thursday. Coach Jacques will attend a meeting Friday at Garden Grove of the Orange county girls' coaches. Plans will be made for a banquet of all the girls' basketball teams and coaches of the county. FIANCE'S PRESENCE WINNS BOXING BOAT REDDING, Feb. 5. — Following his victory in a glove contest before the American Legion at its hall, during which his bride-to-be, Miss Irene G. Pollock of San Francisco was at the ringside and cheered him to victory, the young couple were married in the country clerk's offices by Judge A. P. Ross. Higgins' comrades desired the wedding to be held in the arena prior to the contest, but his fiance demurred to this proceeding. If a man can't win when his prospective bride is a witness to his efforts, I should like to know when he can," commented Higgins when congratulated on his victory. 110-POUND TEAM bearing the name "Ara" and each the property of men of millions, were tied up together at the municipal docks here recently. The yachts belong to W. K. Vanderbilt of New York, and E. B. Dane of Boston. Vanderbilt's "Ara" has been outfitted for a cruise through the West Indies, where the millionaire sportsman plans to collect rare marine specimens for his private museum. The other "Ara" has been made ready for a pleasure trip to the Bahamas and West Indies. Waterfront rumors say Dane tried to purchase the Vanderbilt "Ara" but, failing, bought another and renamed it. 880-yard dash (1:56 4-5) — Clarence Beebe (1916). 1 mile (4:32)—Linton Smith (1911).

Dandy Dillon, midgetor box of Minneapolis, is one of the few eastern and middlewestern lads who has been able to compete on the coast. Dillon boxes frequently and most of his bouts have been victories since he came to the coast. He's a contrast to Wildman Gould much-touted Boston, who blew up in Oakland. Once he was chased from the ring fo rbiting Teddy O'Hara. In a second bout O'Hara copped the decision. The Bostonian didn't show much. Billy Shade, one of the three fighting California Shades has sailed for the east and south. He Georgia high school boy, who dewill meet Young Stribling, the Georgia high school boy, who defeated Mike McTigue, within a short time. Before Shade departed he succumbed to Racehorse Roberts. Johnny Buff, former bantamweight titleholder, Jack Sharkey, Midger Smith and Marty Cross are a few eastern battlers who did not get along on the coast. The four-round racket did not suit them at all. Jimmy Delaney of St. Paul, protege of Mike Gibbons, is notola among the invaders who have made good out west. Delaney is a middle-weight but has defeated numerous light heavyweights. Jack Silver, sensational San Francisco lightweight, recently boxed a four-round exhibition here with the world's champion, Benny Leonard. Silver exchanged blows toe to toe with 'Bennah' who of course, did not extend himself. Once, however, Silver cracked Leonard with a right to the chin and Benny said afterward Silver "hits plenty hard." Another old star hits the long, long trail. Charlie Schmidt, once star catcher with the Detroit Tigers and of late seasons coach for the young pitcher of the Brooklyn Dodgers, has drawn his unconditional release. Higgins' comrades desired the wedding to be held in the arena prior to the contest, but his finance demurred to this proceeding. If a man can't win when his prospective bride is a witness to his efforts, I should like to know when he can," commented Higgins when congratulated on his victory.

CHORUS SUPPORTS REVUE PRODUcer LONDON, Feb. 5. Prest smiles and dimpled cheeks had made their entree into English politics. Harry Day, a producer of revues, was a candidate for the house of commons on the labor ticket in the recent elections. The entire choruses of three of Day's revues playing in London turned out and canvassed his district and staged free performances in behalf of their company. Now if Flo Ziegfeld would only run for Congress - oh boy!
