''CAM &" But
OUTCLASSED

CEDAR POINT, O.. Sept. 5. -
Johnny Kilbane, featherweight
champion of the world, allowed
George CLANCY of Baltimore to
remain in the ring with him for
just two rounds and one half yes
terday. At the end of eight min
utes' fighting, the champion
rushed his challenger off his feet,
and finished the rush with a ter
rifle right smash to Chaney's jaw,
which sent the Baltimore lad to
dreamland for several minutes.
Ringsiders asserted that Kill
bane could have finished CLANCY
In the first round, had he sought
to do so. The smaller boy put
up a game battle for the short
time that he was allowed to face
the champion, but he was out
classed in every department of
the game.

Tense Climax
Is a Thriller

The meaning of the exclama-
ton point in "Shell AL" is just
one of the mysteries of this play
of mystery which has been charm
ing crowds at the Regent and
which remains there until We'd
nesday night.
Just why there should be an
exclamation point after the 43 is
not apparent until the final STIR
ring climax of this most interest
ing and finely acted Triangle
play. The explanation comes with
a big thrill.
The Regent also has one of the
best comedies put on the screen
in months. One of the unique
features is the eloquence of feet,
quite strip of film being devot-
ed just to Willie Golfers feet
and the taintily shod feet of two
Keystone actresses.

TO MOVIE VIE STARDoM

For a baby to start at the bot
tom now and work up to stardom
in the motion picture world would
be a hard struggle, unless the
child were especially fitted for
the work.
OF course, there must always
be a demand for all classes of
children in the movies, but the
child that gets past the "atmos-
phere" stage-playing extra"
parts or acting as a piece of
scenery-must have both photo
graphic and stage ability.
You see, we were very lucky.
Zoe started when the picture
business was in its infancy. She
achieved her first fame at the old
Biograph studio in New York in
"one-reelers."
1t was from this studio that all
the great stars started. Since that
time, however, tremendous trans
formation has taken place in the
film industry. 1t has been put on
a business basis and systema-
tized. We in the profession say
it has been commercialized.
1t is this change that makes it
so difficult for the beginner to
climb. Stars have made their
names and people have learned to
love them.
Once a little girl has entered
the movies she should never be
permitted out of her mothers
sight. Wherever Zoe goes, l go
also.
Many mothers risk sending
their children unaccompanied to
distant locations rather than lose
the opportunity afforded them.
The remuneration this oppor-
tunity brings is not only money.
1t is experience and a chance of
advancement.
But in my opinion no return
can compensate for parental neg
lect which may result in moral or

"Other Peoples Money"
Little Miss Hulette is one of
the younger motion picture stars
whose beauty and charming per-
sonality are especially adapted to
the screen. She is a quaint come

latter talent is no secret to those
who saw her memorable perform

In "Other Peoples Money"
Miss Hulette is given opportunity
for both comedy and pathos, and
she is said to be delightful in
everything she does.

FIGHT FANS BITTER OVER
DECISION IN BIC FIGHT

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo,
Sept. 5.-There is intense feeling
at Colorado Springs and among
the fight fans who witnessed yes
terday's championship battle, as
the result of Referee Billy
Roche's decision in favor of Fred
die Welsh.
Everywhere are comments that
Charlie White put up as good a
bout as the champion, and that,
although both boys plainly stall
ed" through the 20 rounds, White
should have at least been given a
draw decision.
The fight was a tremendous
disappointment, but the decision

was worse. The lightweight cham
pion and his challenger chung to
each other through the fight
without either landing one hard
blow. AS a dancing exhibition 1t
was a success, but as fight it
was failure.
Roche said after the battle that
he gave Welsh the decision on
points. 1t was noticeable at the
end of the battle that Roche was
undecided how to render a decis-
ion, and that he did not do so un-
til Welsh rushed up to him and
thrust his gloved right hand into
the referees palms, practically
lifting the referees hands aloft
and forcing the decision.

play their annual game Sunday,
began to run high last evening
when Manager Kiesel of the sin

against the fast married men, ac-
cording to rumor. Vigilant de-
tective work is under way to pre-
vent Kiesel from importing any

TENNIS CUP

Henry Hewitt is amateur ten
mis- champion of Tacoma, as a re-
suit of his defeat over Gerald
Todd at the courts of the Tacoma
Lawn Tennis club yesterday, 60,
1910, 6-3. He won the first set
with ease, and had only one game
to win for second set when
Todd began to play like veteran.
The result was that the second
set was the longest and most ex-
citing seen in a tournament here
this year. In the third set Todd
was visibly tired, and Hewitt's
powerful strokes exhausted him.
