Many stars fall into a rut because they insist upon making the same line of pictures and using the same kinds of characterizations. They never change because they feel the public is used to seeing them in a certain type of picture. Such is not the case, however, with Harold Lloyd, whose latest feature Pathe-comedy, "Girl Shy" will be seen for 4 days starting tomorrow at the California theater. Harold has fortunately discovered that "mixing them up a prentice to his uncle, a tailor. He makes a secret study of girls, although not a very accurate one, and the more he studies them, the more he fears them. The cast of "Girl Shy" includes Jobyna Ralston, who plays opposite Lloyd. She made a big hit in her initial appearance with the comedian in "Why Worry?", which resulted in her being signed by Lloyd to a long term contract. Her excellent work in "Girl Shy" is said to be one of the contributing factors in its success. Others in the cast are Richard Daniels, who plays the role of Lloyd.

Bert Roach BILLY WHISKERS BY FRANCES TREGO MONTGOMERY Billy it had just discovered a soft pile of black dust under the window. "When I jumped, I'll land on that so it won't hurt me a bit even if but the window is high from the ground. Beaded, the dirt will soil my white coat so it will help to disguise me." Listening to see if any one was astir, armed no one, he quickly climbed up on the manger and within a big spring went thru the windrow clean as a whistle, and landed splash! in the black, soft dirent, sinking in to his stomach. Then to make himself still direr, he rolled over and over in or it, until he was a black goat frost head to foot. He waited until the sentinels tread was lost in of the distance the other side of the breeze. Then he grew out and, k' sleeping in the shadows, he arrive with at the back of the Red Cross hospital. Here he found an ambulance about ready to start for the front, and as before, he got in and lay down at the end on opposite from the door, curling himself up in as tight a knot as he could. And presently he heard the doctor in charge of the ambulance give the order to start. Over the cobblestones they went, thru the gates of the village and out into an inky black country road that turned and twisted so much that Billy that the motion was exactly like a snake wriggling along on the ground. And he was beginning to get seasick from the peculiar motion when the ambulance stopped and the doctor got out and went to meet some stretcher bearers bringing in some wounded. The minute, Billy heard his steps growing fainter and fainter in the distance, he jumped out and ran in the opposite direction, little caring where he was going as long as he got away and they could not take him back to camp. And he laughed to himself to think how he had fooled them all and given them the slip. "My! Won't the General be surprised when he finds I am gone? I think I will just wait here until morning, for it is so dark I might wander inside the enemy's lines and not know it. "How I wonder where my master is! And how I wish he had not said he was going so far away! He said by horseback, train, boat, and foot. He must be going to Constantinople, Persia or some of those cities and countries away south of here. So I suppose the best thing I can do is to wait and be right here when he comes back. Or I could travel around and see the country at our rear and then when I think it is about time for him to return I could unexpectedly turn up at camp and surprise them all. I'll just take a good long sleep here in this clever and get a good rest and then I will feel fresh to begin my travels in the morning." (Tomorrow Billy starts forth in search of new adventures.) MAY NEVER KNOW CAUSE OF EXPLOSION (Continued From Page One) Greatest of the tributes paid the dead sailors came from the pale lips of the ill-fated man-of-war's commander, Captain W. D. Brotherton. "They all did their duty as men and I have nothing but praise for them," Brotherton half sobbed on the witness stand. In his recital of the great sea tragedy, Brotherton, as well as Ensign J. J. Leviseur of the New Mexico and Commander Joseph H. Trainer, chief medical officer of the Mississippi, could find nothing to aid in revealing the cause of the blast and it becomes apparent that probably the circumstances surrounding the explosion will never be known. Nothing has been told either by witnesses to explain how a second explosion rocked Los Angeles harbor, sending a shell in the path of the Steamship Yale, after the stricken Mississippi had returned from sea, four hours after the first accident. Testimony of the Mississippi's own officers was that the doors of turret No. 2, where they said "something went wrong" with a big 14-inch gun, were melted like wax, then fused to the floor. Ensign Donald Smith, with a kais mask, entered the sealed cauldron first thru the one flame proof hatch on the turret and then the terribly gased and burned bodies were carried out one by one. The first bodies found were dammed tight against the hatchway. Long after the explosion it was impossible to breathe in the turret filled with lethal gas, which must have sent the gunners to their death almost instantly, the officers testified. F. J. Rynes, turret captain, be the most important witness fore the inquiry, it was learned today. He is badly burned and may not be able to testify for days. Rynes' story is particularly wanted by the investigators as he was directly in charge of the turret. Captain Brotherton's testimony completely absolves the officers and men of any blame for the disaster. The naval board, appointed by Vice Admiral Henry A. Wiley, is comprised of Captain Vates Sterling of the U. S. S. New Mexico, Captain W. S. Crosley of the Idaho and Lieut. Commander E. J. Foy of the New Mexico. Lieut. Commander T. S. Boyd, Judge advocate, is questioning the witnesses. As the exhaustive inquiry of the sea catastrophe continued today, Los Angeles prepared to have a great tribute to the dead gunners upay. All societies, clubs and conventions have suspended programs and acting mayor Boyle Workman has declared the city in morning. The hospital ship Relief still held its ghostly cargo of dead, dying and seared men early today. When the bodies will be removed and sent to their final voyages to their homes in every section of the country is not known. CALIF. HOTEL. FULLERTON A. C. Hann, San Diego; H. J. Thompson, J. E.
