Worden, pitching for the winners, had remarkable control and held the Brea boys to two lonely bingles. The Bearcats played with a rather makeshift line-up. It evidently being the plan to try out several recruits but the plan spelled defeat. Morgan, assuming the pitching duties for Brea, was the only rookies who looked good.

FRIDAY & SATURDAY ANOTHER "WOW" OF A SHOW 5—Clev VAU FRIDAY Ladies Bargain Matinee RICHARD DIX IN TOO MANY KISSES CHRISTIE COMEDY AESOP FABLE ATHLETE LASTS AS LONG AS LEGS NEW YORK, May 7.—Almost at the same time the iron man of the ring and the iron man of baseball pulled up at the end of their carvers kissing prior to the oid Tourist View Colorado Cliff Dwelling, Biggest of Prehistoric Apartment Houses in Southwest ATHLETE LASTS AS LONG AS LEGS NEW YORK, May 7.—Almost at the same time the iron man of the ring and the iron man of baseball pulled up at the end of their careers giving proof to the old yarn that "an athlete lasts only as long as his legs." Johnny Dunlee had so much difficulty in keeping his legs moving against Sid Terris Tuesday night that he must retire from the ring or become a sad second rater. Old Deacon Scott, the Dunlee of baseball, who had not missed a ball game since June 20, 1916, had his record of 1307 consecutive games broken yesterday. He will have to retire from baseball or be content with a substitute seat on the bench of the New York Yankees. Neither Dundee nor Scott were hitters. They depended upon the skill of their hands and the speed of their legs. With their legs gone, they are no longer first raters. Scotty, who takes pride in a record that he had never missed a day in school, was heart broken when Miller Huggins, manager of the Yankees, said "Scotty, guess you’d better let Wanninger go in there today." Wanninger is a 20-year-old shortstop just up from the Augusta club of the South Atlantic League. Like Dundee, who was beaten by the 21-year-old Terris, just a short time out of the amateur class, Scotty saw youth step in and convince him that he was old. Dundee is only 31 and Scott is 32, but the wear and tear of years in a hard racket tad aged them far beyond their years. Huggins told reporters that Scotty had been benched because he was not feeling well and that he was going home for a rest instead of making the trip to St. Louis with the club. "I’m as well as I ever was," Scotty said. "I don’t see why I was benched. I got two hits the day before and I was just beginning to get going. I won’t be a substitute on any club. I’ll quit baseball if I’m no longer any good." It is quite certain that Scotty has lost his job as a regular with the Yankees and there are no other clubs in the Major Leagues who want an old man at shortstop.

Gualano and Marguerite presenting “Musical Oddities.” are two shores of Italy who offer both popular and classic selections on the accordion and in songs. Tom and Dorothy Bennett present a comedy skit from the pen of Sam J. Parks “The Old Home Town,” a bit that is sure chuck full of laughs. Wild and Sedalia, in “Here, There and Everywhere,” is another laugh producing offering that is full of class, ability and versatility. Footlight Fantasies, a “Reproduction of Broadway Stars,” is an exacting impersonation of the famous stars of Broadway such as George White, Courtney Sisters, Pearl Regay, Sophie Tucker The Dooleys, Ruth St. Denis and Galli Curci. The members of this talented company of five have made individual studies of the stars they impersonate and have all their little mannerisms dawn perfect. The little Basque village of Touraine in the Pyrenees is the scene of Richard Dix’s new Paramount picture. “Too Many Kisses,” showing at the California Friday and Saturday. The story, which opens in a mining office in New York City, was directed for the screen by Paul Sloane from an adaptation of John Monk Saunders’ Cosmopolitan magazine serial “A Maker of Gestures.” It brings Dix to the screen in the role of a happy-go-lucky, romantic, fighting young American.
