FOOTBALL BEGINS AT U. S. SCHOOLS; INTEREST KEEN
On The Screen
NEW YORK, Sept. 25. Notwithstanding the uncertainty regarding the ultimate status of football among the eastern colleges, practice nas been started at a number of institutions and present conditions would appear to Indicate a general carrying on of the play, arranged for earlier in the year. Encouragement is gained from the fact that the leaders in the grld'.ron activity are the two government academies at West Point and AnnapoMs. It is the general opinion among coaches and others Interested in football that it the Cadets and Middies, with their intensive duties and training, can find time for the game the average student enrolled in the various college S. A. T. C, will have similar opportunities for indulging in the sport. Both the Navy and Army squads have been practicing under competent coaches for some time now, the number of candidates averaging well over the hundred mark. No attempt has been made to curtail the schedules and all games will be played as planned, except where colleges engaged have dropped football. These open dates will be filled if opponents can be secured. This, however, is not a particularly easy task as both the Army and Navy have impressive elevens, well under construction and other institutions are loath to send their teams against the Middies or Cadets unless fortified with powerful material. At West Point virtually the entire first string combination of last year has reported for training. Oliphant and Knight are the two mlHsing veterans and their places are bHng eagerly sought by a score of husky candidates, some of whom have had considerable football experience at prominent colleges. The Navy is equally well provided with material Coach Dobie has more than a hundred players out every day, including many prominent veterans, last season's substitutes and first year, men for every position. The squad also contains a number of fast and heavy players and this weight will be welcome as the Middies' eleven of 1917 was unusually light, making up in speed what it lacked in poundage.
Two other colleges, which v&re repV... ... ....1 I . 1 . . f '
months ago, are also back on the gridIron at Rutgers and West Virginia. Rutgers is in much the same position as West Point as coach Foster Sanford has about ninety percent of his last season eleven upon which to build for 1918. West Virginia is not quite so fortunate as some of the best players of a year ago have been lost through graduation and entry into the service. The new candidates, however, are a promising group and indications point to a team which will approach the high standard of 1917. Lehigh and Penn. State have commenced practice with fair prospects of winning teams. Nine veterans have already reported at South Bethlehem while Penn. State began work with a nquad of more than thirty players. The freshmen rule, barring first year men from the 'varsity team, is still in force which would appear t') indicate that material for the team is not lacking. Wesleyan and Washington and Jefferson candidates are drilling regularly and reports from the training quarters are to the effect that both in numbers and physical attributes the men are fully up to the expectation of the coaches. Football work is scheduled to commence at Cornell and Pennsylvania within a few days and if Princeton, Harvard "and Yale decide to resume play, even upon a limited scale, the outlook will be promising for a season eqifal to that of last year when interesting gridiron contests were not larking.
MURRETTE. Theda Bara is coming to the Murrette soon in a massive production of "Salome." The play is based on the chronicles of Josephus, the Jewish historian, who relates in detail how the daughter of Herodias so charmed King Herod with her errie dancing that he promised her anything she might ask, even to the half of his kingdom. She chose the head of John the Baptist in a charger. Why this weird maiden chose such a bloody reward for her dancing forms the plot of the spectacular and dramatic story of "Salome," the latest and the greatest production in which Theda Bara has yet appeared. It " was filmed at the Hollywood (Cal.) Studios of William Fox, under the supervision of J. Gordon Edwards, who staged "Cleopatra" and other productions in which Misss Bara has appeared. When the theatrical company of which La Belle Geraldlne (Jewel Carmen) is leading lady, is stranded out West, Freddie Montgomery, her dancing partner, offers to marry her. In order to raise money, Geraldlne arranges that Freddie make up as Black Jim, a notorious bandit, and that when he tries to hold up a stage coach she will capture him and net the reward
of $2,000 that has been offered.
The real Black Jim holds up the coach, and when Geraldlne gets obstreperous he shoots her in the hand and hurries her off to his cabin in Spider Gulch, along with Freddie. "Lawless Love" at the Murrette today.
WASHINGTON. David Wark Griffith, the foremost director of moving pictures. Is back fresh from the seat of war in order to watch his latest achievement, "Hearts of the World," to be shown at the Washington, Sept. 30 and Oct1 and 2. The public has responded so entruslastically that Mr. Griffith feels that the enormous expenditure of money and the risk of his own life was well worthy of his triumph. In fact, the most conservative reviews have agreed that Mr. Griffith has in reality outdone all previous achievements in producing "Hearts of the World." Much has already been printed about the aid given Mr. Griffith by the British and French war officers, and also by David Lloyd George, the prime minister of England, in staging this romance of the great war. In fact, one scene of the film shows David
Lloyd George shaking hands with Mr. Griffith. "I spent several weeks in London before going to France,' said Mr. Griffith recently. "Through influential friends I had a long conference with Mr. George, to whom the object of the drama had already been explained. I wanted to stage a great love romance with the war as a background and with the inspiring motive of love of country as the ideal. It was suggested by certain prominent officials of the British and French governments that a story staged on the actual battle fields of France could not fall to arouse tremendous enthusiasm throughout the civilized world, and in return for the aid and assistance rendered me, I voluntarily made an agreement by which a large share of this achievement will go to the aid of the wounded soldiers of the allies.
S. A. LSEASOM TO CLOSE SUNDAY
The S. A. L. will ring down the curtain of the 1918 season at Exhibition park Sunday afternoon. This has been one of the best years of organized amateur baseball in Richmond. With Natco, representing the National Automatic Tool Co. and The Simplex team, representing the Simplex Machine Tool Co., tied for first place at the finish, an extra contest is necessary to decide the championship. Both teams have easily proven themselves the class of the league, winning 11 and losing 4 games. An extra game was also necessary to decide third place, as the Vulcans,
representing the Jenkins Vulcan Spring Co., and the Malleable-Pennsys, representing players from the Richmond Malleable Castings Co. and the Pennsylvania R. R., were tied for the position. In the deciding game the Vulcans won from the Malleable-' Pennsys by a score, of 1 to 0. The deciding game for the championship between Natco and Simplex Sunday afternoon should be one of the best contests ever seen in Richmond. Five times these teams have battled this season, Simplex winning three Of the five, and each game was decided by the narrowest margin, one run deciding each contest. Three games have been 1 to 0, one game 3 to 2, and last Sunday's score was 2 to 1. Never before in the S. A- L. were two teams so evenly matched. S. A. L. has contributed $240 this season to the Red, Cross, the receipts of the entire season, except the last game, which will go to the players. Enthusiasm was kept up during the entire season, although many changes were neceseary in the personnel of the teams, as the boys were called into the service. An entire baseball team could be composed of the S. A. L. boys now in the service. Many players did exceptionally fine work for their teams. In the Natco lineup the work of. Russ Hawekotte kept this team in first place all season. The Logan brothers and John Holmes deserve special praise. The Simplex team was kept in the race all season by the fine battery work of Minner and Everett Haas. It was up to these two to bear the greater part -of the burden. Reddinghaus played good ball on third, the work of Long on short was steady, while Pottenger covered first in good style. Jenkins-Vulcans being a new club in the league, had no material left over from the previous seasons to build a club, but during the season de
veloped' some good material. Sturm pitched good ball in many games, and with the help of Kutter, landed the team in third place. Burkett developed into a fast shortstop, while Retz made good at first. Hewitt in the outfield and Hauk behind the bat played steady ball. The Malleable-Pennsy team deserves-special credit for the strong finish they made. After being a hopeless tailender until half the season was over, they came back strong in the last games. The addition of Hartman in the box was the bolstering that they needed. Fine played a steady game behind the bat. The manager of the S. A. L. stated Wednesday that he . wishes to thank the fans for their support and also the Richmond Exhibition Co. for the
