NOVELTIES AT THE MOVIES NEXT WEEK (Continued From Fage Six.) Crosa Pull,” written by Hal G. Evarts, which appeared in the Saturday Evening Post. The story deals with the dual strain of wolf and dog In an animal in the West and the fight to make the civilized element victorious. In Strongheart, Mr. Trimble not only found an animal that meets the idea of what Mr. Evarts pictured in his story, but he obtained an animal actor that seems to have human intelligence. He is not a trick dog. He (yts a part and his unusual performance ms the resnlt of wonderful canine intelligence plus the stiff discipline he has been subjected to as a police dog and in :ii ill tar;, service.

Hart's new production, the story of which was written by Hart himself, will be on view at the Isis next week. It Is a tale of Arizona as It was some thirty or forty years ago, with Hart enacting a strange character —that of a man of iron who believed only in himself; who can neither read nor write, and who does not even know his own name. For purposes of self-identi-fication he has chosen a cattle brand, "J. i>." by which he is known. In the course of his wanderings “J. B.” arrives at a town called Tumble Bluff, a rough and ready community where might, backed by quick gun play, rules supreme, and where one McGee, a twomun man. and all-round bad citizen, was ■aving things pretty much his own way. w Above everything else McGee desires to possess the beautiful wife of a reformed bandit who had turned preacher and was endeavoring, aided l y his wife, to convert the inhabitants of Tuinbie Bluff. ”J. B.” too falls in love with her. Then things begin to happen. When the atmosphere is cleared "bad man” McGee is among the missing and “J. B." has been made a much better man with the knowledge and conscience of an Almighty God for the first time in his life. Prominent in the cast are Ethel Giey Terry. James Farley and little Mary Js.ne Irving. The comedy portion of the program will tea Mack Sennett farce entitled 'By Heck.”

IN THE LAND OF , MAKE BELIEVE (Continued F rorfi Fife Seven.) ability of the really great actress and actor. "There Is no need to go into the causes for the unfortunate condition of ailairs which at present exists in the inotiontplctnre industry. No one is directly to "blame, for the industry and its problems are new, and certain recent results could riot be foreseen and met. Both cause and effect are without precedent. "Perhaps every one has been a little to blame—the producer, who sat apathetically by and did nothing; the actor and actress, who wen suddenly loaded with riches, and sought o enjoy them without counting the cost; the exhibitor, who gave no thought except to the box office; the newspapers, who played up the scandals for personal aggrandizement; the public, which was willing, even eager, to believe whatever it heard or read. “But whatever the causes, the facts exist; and it Is these which you, Mr. Hays, must face—and face fearlessly. The time has come to act, and I believe that you are capable of organizing the many factors of influence in America—producers, actors, directors, exhibitors, press and public—to Join hands and work with you for anew idea in motion pictures. “Photoplay, for Its part, will refuse to print any personality story about any motion picture star, who is notoriously immoral, or whose actions are such as to reflect unfavorably on the industry. “It is a Ilerculean task you have uuJertaken. "You are going to find in the motion picture industry the same ’.rouble that has always existed—selfishness and cutthroat methods. Side by side with men of the highest principles, you are going to find men who are the scum of the earth. “Bnt you will succeed. Neither you. nor any one else will be able to make (the motion picture business perfect, any more than the railroad business, the steel businesp, the banking business, or the Government is perfect. “After all, just as sorrow and hardship build up character so out of these tribulations will come a stranger and j better business.

KEITH NEWS i The New York theaters of the B. F. Keith Circuit are making great preparations for the coming “Third of a Century” Jubilee week now definitely set for the week of April the 24th. It is planned to make this demonstration representative of the achievements ana progress of the Keith X'audevillo from the time it was started thirty-three years ago in Boston to its new national scope and popularity. During the Jubilee Week special bills will be presented in every Keith theater over the entire circuit, and the New York Keith managers have already commenced to book extra feature acts for this holiday celebration. -I- -I- -IA number of popular Keith favorites are featured on the Palace Theater bill this week. The family Ford with Jim Harkins is back for a return engagement, and is just as heartily welcomed as it was oniy a few weeks ago. Kane and Heman are also back again, and are making their Usual hit with the Palace regulars. -I- -!- -ICommander John Philip Sousa had a particularly pleasant surprise last Sunday night during his annual New York concert at the Hippodrome when the large backdrop of the stag? was raised to disclose the Keith’s boys’ band standing rigidly at attention. The Juvenile band then proceeded to serenade Sousa with his own music, starting off with “The Stars and Stripes Forever” probably the most popular band piece that was ever composed. Sousa's concert at the Hippodrome marked the twentyfifth annivarsary of this famous composition and the Keith's boys' band chose this occasion to show America's greatest bandmaster how much his advice and encouragement has meant to their organization. .|. -|- President Harding, in a letter to the manager of the Kefth Theater at Syracuse, complimented the Keith Theater of the city for fostering and encouraging a people’s symphony orchestra, a p’an which every Keith Theater on the entire circuit is ready to emulate. Efforts are being made by the citizens of Washington to organize a symphony orchestra such as -ow exists In Syracuse and from his letter the President heartily approves of the plan.

Florence Retd Is appearing at the Palace this week in a clever sketch written J>y Edgar Selwyn and entitled “The Royal Rendezvous.” Miss Reed’s great popularity as a moving picture actress and as one of New York'* legitimate “stars" makes her appearance in vaudeville especially significant. In the early days of the Keith Circuit few actresses cared to play a vaudeville engagement, but the class of people who go*to vaudeville shows has changed and artists now look forward to a Keith vaudeville engagement. Miss Reed declares that she' is having the time of her life, and is eager to make a complete tour of the Keith and affiliated circuits. -I- -1- + Horace Goldin, known to the patrons of the Keith Circnit as the master magician and as the inventor of the act titled “Sawing a Woman in Half,” has had a hard time keeping imitators from copying his act. The NeJt York courts have just returned a verdict in his favor forbidding the production of a motion pic- j ture disclosing how the feat is performed. Goldin las been compelled to go into the courts several times before this to protect | his rights. -!- -1- -!- The patrons of the Palace Theater are fortunate this week in having John Steel as an additional star to a headline bill, i Mr. Steel doesn't come on until late in the afternoon, but he stays as long as the audience wants him, and his act has* been running almost twice as long as it i is intended to run. At that he has -to pull himself away, for the Palace The- j ater patrons will never tire of hearing Mr. Steel sing. -I- -!- The popular Yankee comedian known ; to every theater goer in the Unied States , as George Cohan and also known to j many of the old Keith patrons as a one-time star on the Keith circuit, is cleebrating his return to the producing j field in a truly characteristic manner. His new play, “Madeline of the Movies,” '■ written and produced by himself for his daughter. Georgette, had only been run- i cing a couple of days when Mr. Cohan surprised this week's matinee audience by appearing in the leading comedy role • himself.

New Trolley Bus Grows in Popularity Motion pictures of the new trolley bus, which is becoming popular in the East, were shown by J. C. Thirwall of the railway department of the General Electric Cos., Schenectady, N. Y., at a meeting of the Indlanapolis-I.afayette section of the Amerieanu Institute of Electrical Engineers at the Ciaypool Hotel last night, Mr. Thirwal! spoke on “Respective Fields of Rail Car, Gasoline Bus and Trolley Bus ” He said the correlation of these three systems is coming into popular favor with railway officials as a means of reducing operating costs. The new trolley bus. he explained, operates with a flexible trolley and no rails along the public highways. These flexible trolleys permit the busses to turn out and pass other vehicles. %

Finley's elongated frame, quaint mauwrisms and eccentricities are known to thousands of movie fans and he is not a stranjler to vaudeville audiences. either, for he was a "regular ’ on the variety circuits long before he entered the picture field. Ills act consists of singing, dancing and odd bits of comedy, and as a “girl act" It is hailed as a genuine innovation. “The Romance of an Egg” is the title of a laughable skit that will be introduced ty Fairbanks and Major, and Howell and Gear in “Oh, Jimmy!” will amuse with their songs and patter.

INDIANS PLAY GALVESTON IN FIRST CONTEST Tribe in Good Shape for Start of Exhibition Series in Texas. HARRY WEAVER IN BOX 1 MARLIN, Texas, March 18—Manager 1 Jack Hendricks, of the Indianapolis ! American Association baseball team Friday night led his stalwart athletes out I of Marlin Springs for another 200-mtle : dip closer to the equator, where the Indians, who, like a field of thoroughbreds, are ready for the snap of the barrier which sends them into the first baseball game of the year today with the Galveston Texas Leaguers as their opponents. Twenty-one men are in the invauing party which .includes six pitchers. Hill and Clancy were left at Marlin be auso of their inability to enter the strenuous play of a real battle. - The opening game with Galveston probably will see Hurry Weaver occupying the pitchers’ box and either Ernie Krueger, late of the Brooklyn Nationals, or : Leo I)ixc-n behind the cage Hud windpad. ; It is planned to start Weaver and after > a time he Is to be relieved Bartlett. ! who is in fine fettle at this writing. With Weaver, he Is expected to bring the Sandcrabs to the mat for the hrst victory of what should be a great season for the Indianapolis team. For the second game of the series with Galveston manager Hendricks planned to divide the chucking duties between Jesse Petty and Clyde Sell), the latter being the rookie star who has made an impression with the Tribe. Seib is a ri.rht-hander and played with the Staley Independents of Decatur, Illinois last season. Manager Hendricks also planned : to have pug Cavet and Clint ltogg in the i bull pen during these games in case the j Galveston club proves to be a gang of i clubbers.

Following the meeting with Galveston the Tribe wtll hang over in that city for a short practice on Monday and perhaps a fishing engagement in the Gulf, and then will hike westward to SSn Antonio for the combats with the Giants, which begin on Wednesday with two games at San Antonio. The Indians and Giants then will -come back to Marlin for two games on the stamping grounds of the Hoosier Prides. The same quartette of pitchers who will heave the pellet plateward against the Galveston team also will take to shurpshooting at the world’s champions. The Indians are in grnnd shape. They havte enjoyed the finest kind of weather here In March and there are no complaints by the players on account of not getting in condition Eddie Brown 1 the only player in tlte entire camp population who is not fit to enter a game and he is ready to put on a Tribe uniform for the first time in more than a week. Brownie suffered a severe cold last Friday and up until Thursday was confined to his room in the hotei. He will keep company with 11111 and Clancy, the ex-Uiant southpaw, and a few of the others. The stay-at-home* will engage In two sessions daily at Rimes Park until the club returns next Friday. Spencer. Rehg and Morrison will be the outfielders in the games on tile road trip. The regular infleid will do battle, while Bill Heine will reinforce the inner guardians in case there is a mishap. Heine has proved himself a grand little ball player. Clint Rogge took to the pitcher's box in the battlug practice of Friday morning It was Clint's first apeparanee in the harness and he showed the results of preliminary work at his Michigan home by loose with some of the curves which has earned for himseif the reputation of owning one of the best hook balls in the Association. Clint is engaging in one of his few South-training periods, as he ordinarily doesn't like to come down here Outfielder Kinseiia will not be a member of the Indians this year. The young gardener, who was a member of the Tribe last season and who is the property of the New York Giants, was returned to Manager McGraw and will Join the second team of the world's champions at Houston Monday. Kinsella's departure leaves the Indians with five outfielders, including Walter Rehg, I.efty Morrison, Eddie Brown, Vernon Spencer and Harry Purcell, the first two mentioned being veterans of the 1921 crew. Brrftvn and Spencer came to tno Indians from the Giants. Purcell represents the oniy real recruit of the lot and was bought by the Tribe from the lonia (Mich.) team of the Central League. His chief stock in trade is cracking the ball and so far also has exhibited unusual speed.

NEWS AND GOSSIP OF TEAMS IN ACTION AT STATE FINALS

The crowd Friday night closely rivalled last year's State finals throng. The attendance was unofficially estidate at 10,300. Practically every seat in the Coliseum was taken. All of -the referees got away to good starts Friday and all of them satisfied most of the audience as to their ability to handle a basketball game, but, of course, you can’t please everybody. Referee Levis from Indiana had to discipline the crowd Friday morning during the Fran kiln-Evansville game when he fouled Evansville because some fan with a megaphone wag jeering his decisions. After this the refee was supreme. Yell leader: "Are yon ready?” Anderson rooters. 7 ‘We are!” This Is the way Anderson starts her yells and It sure is novel and effective. There’s a clown In every city arid Anderson’s happens to be Herbert Kennedy. He Is one of Anderson’s yell leaders and his white trousers fit him plenty quick. Someone smelled some of the gas given off by the heaters in the Coliseum and promptly made his mark by calling the place a gas house. The gas from these heaters Is not ns noticeable during this meet as it has been at former tourneys. A rather unusual thing happened in the Garfleld-Whlting game. Na 8 of Whiting tied the score at eight ail. The Whiting team believed in plenty of substitutions and when the game- was over the scorers' looked like a Kansas town after a cyclone. . Whiting and Gerfleld produced the smallest and stockiest built teams in Friday's play. The game between Fishers and Goshen proved to be a creation in red and white. Fishers had rod shirts trimmed in white and Goshen had white shirts trimmed in red. Manual, Garfield, Fishers and Goshen ail had red and white for their colors. Even if Anderson doesn't win th> tourney, it at least will get the prize for having the fattest person seen In the Coliseum. His name is Ledolt Riffle, age 10 vears. and he attends Anderson High School and is a loyal rooter. They sure do grow ’em big In that town. Red Edwards, the red-haired yell leader, who generally accompanies Lebanon, was among the missing Friday. He must be heart broken because Lebanon wasn t able to compete. Anyway the crowd misses his excellent work. He was heretofore always been a fixture at the tourneys.

Both Rushville and Marlon were faster than (jrwied lightning and were well matched. The Rushville rooters yelled to beat the band when < assaily went In for Headlee. He 1* Irish and It was St. Patrick’s day. Maybe that had something to do with it. to do with lk Harold Swartz, 13 years old, weight seventy pounds, dressed in a basket bull ulform was Goshen's mascot. Swartz U a freshman and therefore this is his first year ori the squad. He played a good game on .he bench, but failed to score In about two or three years Swart* Is .-xpected to prove a good forward for Goshen. The Vincennes yell leader who won the brown derby last year for being so snakelike in his movements is with us again, and staged his performance all over again for the benefit of those who missed him last year. Speaking of horse shows, that old Coliseum never saw a horse show like the one that black, prancing dark stal lion Cutler put on against Vincennes Friday. Order some more Glmbel medals. One 1 hardly mifflclent. The beet game of the Friday afternoon program was Marion-Itushvtlle. jSvea a 19 to 18 score doesn’t tell how close it wise , Mtirlon led most ot the first half, and RnsiivHle most of the second, but a couple of timely sho's by Lawson. Marlon forward, wrested the lead from the dowfflstater J ist before the final gun sounded. Fuzz r Vanilivier again demonstrated why he is one of the best high school basket-ball players in Indiana in his two appearances Friday. Sometimes It was Vandivler to Gant to Friddle, sometimes it was Vnudivier to Friddle to Gant and sometimes It was just Yandivier to basket, but always Vandivler was in some part of it. He is the key to the Franklin passing game, the key to the Franklin basket-shooting game and the key to the Franklin defensive game. In addition, he does a little dribbling. Plenty of good centers came to light. For instance Doss of Evansville, Friddie of Franklin, Cezar of Bedford, Suthedlin of Atwood, Theobald of Vincennes, It. Stephenson of Cutler, Logan of Bloomington, Hartneson of Manual, Mansfield of Anderson, and Spradilug of Frankfort. . vCderson was the peppiest crowd to tnko the stands. They started whooping things up as soon as the team came on the floor nnd never let down nutil after the game was over.

Mansfield played a wonderful game for Anderson Friday. In addition to scoring a number of his tenm's points he covered Spradiing, his star op-_ portent, so closely that the Frankfort mainstay failed to count from the field. Robinson also starred in the Anderson victory and was almost as cheerful as some of the Cutler players. Behr kept Frankfort In the running with his work from the foul lines. „ Bloomington believes in utilizing every minute of playing time. The gun ending the Manual-Bloomington half Friday, went off as Kreuger's long one \y_us whistling through the air and after* the game had ended Wells tossed In a foul that had been called just as the final gun had counded. The players who stood out in the opening round of play were Doss of Evansville, Vandlvier of Franklin, Cezar and Dve of Bedford, Sutherlln of Atwood, Theobald and Wampler of Vincennes, U. Stephenson and M. Downey of Cutler, ICreuger and Logan ot Bloomington, Bolin of Garfield, Ilutz of Fishers. Stew-

PENNSY R. R. EMPLOYES TO STAGE HUGE ATHLETIC MEET AT COLISEUM FIRST OF APRIL

Elaborate arrangements are under way for holding at the Coliseum. State fairground, one of the biggest indoor athletic events ever staged by railroad employes in this part of the counrty. The Pennsy Athletic Association of the entire Southwestern Region embracing Columbus, Ohio. St. Louis, Mo., Louisville, Ky., Richmond, ind.. Terre Haute, Ind., and Logaimport, Ind., and of Uhls city will be represented. Contestants in basket-ball, volley-ball, indoor baseball, trap shooting, rifle shooting, track events, bowling, billiards, boxing, wrestling, swimming, horseshoe pitching and quoits will vie with one another for the regional championship In these activities. The Pennsy will run special trains for the accomodation of the contestants, participants and fans who are coming to this event via rail. Special street car service will be provided for the crowds going to the fairground. The Indianapolis basket-ball five, champions of the St. Louis System, will meet the Columbus (Ohio) team, champions of the central region, to decide the championship of the Southwest System. This undoubtedly will be a hot contest, affording fans an opportunity to see the best players of two big regions in action. Indianapolis territory will be represented by an aggregation of women bowlers, who, throughout the past season, have been tapping the timbers in a phe-

art and Frazee of Rushville, Lawsoa of Marion. Mansfield, Robinson and Roseberry of Anderson, and Spradling aqd Behr of Frankfort. The crowd Friday picked Cutler for its "champion” right from the start on account or perpetual smiles worn by the Cutler boys. The Cutler team was all smiles at the start of the Cutler-Vin-cennes game and the smiles were still there at the end. C. Lucas of Cutler, made the first field goal of the game and Vincennes admitted that it was up against some of that stuff called opposition when it started shooting from the center of the floor. In the Cutler-Vlncennes game Cutler had seventy tries at the basket from the field while Vincennes was shooting seventy-two times. Frazee of Rushville showed as one of the best backguards In the tourney. He resembles Johnny Hennessey, whom the Indianapolis fans all know. “Shrimp” Englehart and Lawson of the Marion team are a power on the offense. In the first half of the Bedford-Frank-lln game Bedford took time out with only nine seconds to play. Some of the finest dribbling seen in the touney Friday was in the Franklin Bedford game. The ball see-sawed back and forth, a good part of the time in this game with dribbling being the main mode of progress. Vandivler and Cezar were the dribble stars. Vincennes had a lot of snappy yells, but this one takes the cake: They ain’t no flies on us. They ain't no files on us. They might be files on the rest of youse guys. But they ain’t no files on us. Bloomington proved to be Manual's Waterloo for the second time In as many years. Bloomington is getting to be a, bugbear for Indianapolis high schools. In a great number, of the games Friday a one-man offense and no backguard prevailed. Few teams followed in their shots. Franklin and Vincennes were the best on this score. Many long shots were noticeable In Friday s play.

Some Nations May Default at Start of Davis Cup Play Long Trips to Meet Almost Certain Defeat Makes Forfeits Probable. BY HENRY FARRELL. NEW YORK, March 18.—It Is probable that only four of the seven preliminary rounds of the Davie Cup Tennis Tournament will be played this summer. Following the draw made by the United States Lawn Tennis Association, several nations face a trip that makes competition almost Impossible. The Belglum-Austraiia match looks destined for a default, a3 the Belgians facing one of the favorites In the tournament hardly would make such a trip and Australia would not want to go to Belgium. The Spain-Phillipine match also hangs in the balance, but Spain probably will come to the United States to make it easier for the Philippines. The Hawail-Czecho-Slovakta match hardly will be played, as each would have to make a long trip with a small chance of getting by -the second round. Japan and Italy are also doubtful. The Japanese, runners-up last year, are one of the favorites this year, and unless the Italians want to make the Journey to the Uinted States merely for the purpose of taking a beating, they will insist upon the Japanese going to Europe. Many of the preliminary rounds probably will be played In the United States. Repetition of last year's play may be seen tills year. Australia and Japan are rated as the two strongest of the challengers, and They are in opposite sections of the draw. It is not so sure, however, that Japan will reach the challenge round against the American team as the Australians are bringing a veteran outfit this year. It was only the Inexperience of the young Anzae players that enabled the Japanese to beat them last summer. The final preliminary match will be played at Newport during the week of Aug. 24 and the challenge found has been set for Forest Hills, N. Y., on Sept. 1, 2 and 4. The semi-finals will be played on Aug. 10, XI and 12.

WILCOX ENTERS FOR ONE MORE SPEEDWAY TRY ‘Howdy* Again to Drive Peugeot Car in Tenth Annual 500-Mile Race. VICTOR IN 1919 EVENT Howard Wilcox, winner of the 1919 Indianapolis 500-mile .Speedway race, has filed his entry for the tenth, annual international sweepstakes five century, next May 20, and aspires to be the first driver to be a repeater. Nine pilots have won the last nine races and no driver has been able to gain a second victory, although Ralph De Palma has “almost’ won two races. Wilcox will drive the Peugeot he piloted a year ago. In the trials last May the car showed its speed when Wilcox qualified at an average of ninety-six miles an hour. However, in the race ill luck eliminated the Hoosier star, after fifty-five miles, with a broken connecting rod. Until he was eliminated the Peugeot pilot had been running with the leaders at a pace of almost 100 miles an hour. During the winter Wilcox has rebuilt the engine of the French car and is confident that a connecting rod will not rob him of his chance to repeat in this year's batlte for 350,000 and the glory that goes with winning the greatest auto race of the year. Wilcox probably knows the Indianapolis track better than any other driver now competing in speedway races. With Ralph Mulford he shares the honor of being the only drivers to compete in every one of the International sweepstakes, since 1911, but he has It on Muiford as he also competed in the one meeting In 1909, three In 1910 and the additional race run in the fall of 1910. Not only has he been a contestant in all these events, but as an experimental engineer for Indianapolis factories he has made test drives over the local mile brick oval times without number. In the first 500-mile event In 1911 Wilcox drove a National car and was one of fifteen drivers still running when the race was called: In 1912 he again drove a National and finished ninth; in 1913 he was sixth, In 1914 he was eliminated by mechanical troubles, in 1915 he was seventh, driving a Gray Fox in the three races; in 1918 he finished seventh at the wheel of a Premier, in 1919 he won with the Feugot, in 1020 mechanical faults put him out after 163 miles. In addition to being a crafty driver Wilcox has the mechanical knowledge of an engineer and annually divides with Ralp De Palma the honors of favorite and. given a good car, is always a dangerous driver whether It be on dirt track, road or speedway racing.
