Morosco Play
At Colonial
Is Thriller

Far above the little group oil
feudists on the ridge below
perched in a giant fir, was hidden
a mountain "sniper." Seemingly
secure in his dizzy tower, he
poured shot after shot into his
enemies.
Then, suddenly, as his finger
pressed the trigger, a bullet from
an unseen foe penetrated his
heart. Mortally wounded, he
threw his hands wildly into the
air, swayed helplessly for mo-
ment, and then plunged down,
down, down-to the rocks far be-
low.
This fall, one of the most thrill
ing ever filmed, is an actual scene
in 1.-THE Stronger Love-" the pic
ture attraction at the Colonial.
Vivian Martin, the pretty and win
ming little Morosco star, is featur-
ed in this photoplay, which un-
folds love story punctuated by
many thrills.

player sterling football.
The only touchdown of the
game was made by Danielson.
Kucera, playing left half on the
st. Martins team, was quite badly
hurt in the third quarter when
someone stepped on his finger,
but he stuck to the ship and fin
ished the game.
Walter Holmberg was taken
from the lineup in third quarter,
when he was hurt. Shumake
went to half, with Robinson TAX
ing up the battle at the position
OF guard, playing star game.
One of the Tacoma stars whose
name does not appear on either
lineup was Leigh Neff, star root
er for the visiting team. Yester-
day was Pollen's last game for the
South Enders, as he is leaving
today for California. It will be
hard to replace him.
Arrangements were made for
a return game to be played at
South Tacoma, but no date has
been fixed.
Excitement was furnished the
players and fans when a spring
broke on the "Bluebird" bus on
the trip to Lacey, and one of the
tires punctured ON the return.

Second Teams
at 1t TODAY

The second teams of Stadium
and Lincoln Park high schools
are battling this afternoon in the
Stadium for interscholastic hon
ors, following the failure of either
first teams to score on the other
Saturday.
Lincoln Park has an advantage
In weight but the Stadium boys
have plenty of pep and speed.
The game between the first
teams Saturday was one of mighty
effort and superb defense. In
the offensive work both teams
made many plumbers and fumbles,
but each team fought manfully TO
prevent the other from scoring. 1t
was an exciting contest, from the
spectators standpoint.
