ATHLETICS WON
DECIDING GAME

The Athletics won the deciding
game of a series of five from the post
team Sunday afternoon by score Of
II to 4, on the diamond at Fort Bar
rancas. Neither team was up to
standard and the runs on each side
were chiefly the result of errors,
rather than any feature playing.
The batteries for both teams were
in their usual good form, but lacked
the support which has been the strong
point in the series. OHM, twirling for
the soldiers made scoring difficult,
and until the third inning had the
home boys on the run. The pitching
of Bombay saved the day, and after
the first of the fourth, placed the
game for the Athletics. Several in
dividual players were particularly,
good, chief among which was the
fielding of Jeudevine.
The two teams are making arrange
ments for continuing the games and
another series will probably be an
nounced at an early date.
The lineup of the post team was as
follows: Kitchen, center; Broockin
first; Welch, left; Trap, short;
Gingrich, second; Harris, third; Ca
sey, right; Strawbridge, catcher;
OHM, pitcher. ...
The Athletics lineup in yester-
days game was as follows: F. Villar
left; Reinhart, catcher; Mcintosh
short; R. McVoy, third; Jeudevine
first; G. Hartman, center; d. McVoy
left; Sanchez, second; W. Bombay
pitcher.
The score: r. H. E

The Moral Fabric. "

1t is matter of note that the movie
patron is beginning more and more to
relish philosophy as spice for his en-
tertainment; and the number of plays
having moral lessons in "little pack
ages for the audience to take home"
as H. A du Souchet used to say, is in
creasing by leaps and bounds. A film
that may be taken as sign-post of
this advance is new Triangle-Kay

late occupation beyond destroying the
domestic happiness of his fellows.

drama "The Accusing Voice." an I'M

all-star Vitagraph cast. To relieve
the tension created by this absorbing
drama there will be a screamingly
funny comedy, "Hired nd Fired" in
which the inimitable little comedian

part.

manding the use of double exposure
that she play two roles in the same
picture. This is the task faced by the
beautiful and talented Pauline Fred
erick in "Ashes of Embers," her
newest Famous Players production
on the Paramount program, in which
she plays the sisters. Agnes and
Laura, the one a drudge. and the 9th
er a totally heartless and selfish wo-
man.
There is no reason, however, why
Miss Frederick should shrink from
such a task as she has already scored
a great success on the screen in an
other dual role-"The Spider"-in
which she scored a great triumph.
This is the sort of work which only
the most talented and most highly
imaginative players can do success
fully since it requires a far greater
exercise of the imagination than
any other form of action before the
camera.
There is no suggestion of an at
tempt to exploit the trick work on
the part of the Famous Players in
producing this picture, which is the
featured attraction at the Bonita to-
morrow. There is only one way in
which the dual role can be success
fully presented on the screen and that
is by means of the double exposure"
This method of photography is never
resorted to, however, except where it
is absolutely essential to the progress
