IvlRolMlA PEARSON SAYS
| WE HAVEN'T SEEN
VAMPIRE VET
Cleveland Plain Dealers Noted
Picture Critic Interviews
Beautiful FOX Star

Now we are all going to be set
right. Virginia Pearson, modern
Cleopatra and screen heretic,
steps forth to give us her views
of the vampire.
Well, she didn't exactly step
forth. To be precise, it was the
writer who did the stepping when
he was summoned into the august
presence of the creator of the
stage vampire.
While Director Bnel and car
load OF actor folk and camera men
|impatiently awaited the new Will
liam Fox star, outside the big
studios at Fort Lee, Miss Pearson
|leasurely brushed her raven locks
and ruthlessly upset all our pre-
conceived notions Of the YAM
|pire lady.
You have seen the screen YAM
|pire Turing her helpless victims
to- destruction. You have shud-
dered and felt an icy feeling
creeping up your spine as she has
wrecked mems souls and con-
|demned them to everlasting per-
dition. And you have all had that
"served- her olly-well- right"

Below is a table showing what each

432--a mark beyond that Of any Of
his four rivals. They show also that

BIG LEAGUE SCOUTS
HOPE TO LAND VINEYARD

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL
MIDDLETOWN, Del. Aug Is
Bayard vinyard the fast and hard
hitting right fielder of the local base
ball team. is slated for the majors. II
has just come to light that for the
past month two big league scouts, one
from the American League and an-
other from the National League have
been camping on the stars trail try
ing 20 secure his signature to a con-
tract to play with their respective
clubs. So far vinyard has ignored
their offers as he does not care for
professional baseball. but it Is thought
around this town that he will soon
come 10 terms and that he will be a
big league star next season.
Vinyard is one Of the best outfelders
that this town has ever developed. He
began his baseball career like several
other local players. as a pitcher. In
the box he had worlds Of speed and
curves, but he was so wild that it was
out of the ordinary for him to put a
ball over the plate. From the pitch
er's box he was shifted to right field
and in that position his fame was
made.
AS a batter Vineyard has no equal on
the team. AS fielder he is a star OF
! first-class calibre, having a high aver
age. He has an arm of steel and many
Wilmington players will vouch that Il
is next TO impossible TO score from
third on fly to his garden. II ap-
pears as though one of his chief lie
lights was IN throwing runners out
at the plate. This great fielder also
delights in racing toward the right
field wall at full speed with his back
toward the ball. leaping into the air
and robbing the batter of a sure three
Dagger or home run. Some Of his
catches are marvellous and il is al
most impossible to see how any man
can cover so much ground.
Although the fans will be sorry II
he should leave, they will pull hard
for him to make good in the big show,

NOW QUAEERS Want
BOXING commission
Movement on Foot for Board
to Control Pennsylvania
Game
RING
EVILS WOULD GO

The success Of commission rule of
boxing in this state and in the West
is bearing fruit in Pennsylvania
where there is a strong movement for
a commission based on the New York
plan. William H. Recap, a leader in
boxing matters in the Keystone State,
says:
There is only one solution. to the
boxing question in the State Of Penn
sylvania. BY that the writer means
full protection for manager pro-
moter, boxer and. by no means last,
the Dear Public, who pays the toll
and makes the game possible. A box
ing commission will solve the problem
not composed of the men who man
age clubs or boxers. but men whose
motives are positively unselfsh' men
who have the courage Of their convic-
tions. men who will serve the State,
public and all interested fearlessly
and faithfully
Evils Would Re Checked.
II that condition were in force the
shoestring promoter who depended on
the public to make good his promised
purses and who had made no privi-
sion for a rainy night would be driven

maker whose word is OF little more
stability than celluloid over a flaming
torch would have to 80 to work for
a living The boxer who dishonored
his contract would be compelled to
rest for a while aud his manager, who
snaps his fingers In the face of pro
moters after signing articles OF agree
ment and sneeringly says, What are
you going to do about it?' would be
promptly punished.
These improvements would be in
the hands Of a commission and the
sport would be purged Of the chaff,
the public protected and the game
would assume its place where IL be-
longs, foremost among American pas
