"BIG PUNCH"
AT THE HIPP

1t is the picture with the "big
punch" that the majority of the
motion picture patrons enjoy.
"The LINEUP" which comes to
the Hippodrome beginning Sun
day is one of the greatest under
this classification.
New York's famous detective
and commissioner, George S
Dougherty is responsible for the
story and is the star of the six
act production.
Speaking of punches, "Theh
Lineup" has no less than eight
thrilling climaxes. Its story is
that of a gigantic diamond rob-
berry, taken from the police rec
ords by Mr.. Dougherty. A battle
royal on a Curtiss flying boat
going at the rate of so miles an
hour; Dougherty's fight for life
with bare hands; the dive from
an ocean greyhound into the sea
and the fight in the water; the
raid on Chinatown and a leap
from the roof of a sky-scraper;
modern safe robbers at work; the
Bertillon system, thumb print
test and third degree are some OF
the punches of the picture.

legs in the Dodger and Philly
teams will put the Braves in the
lead.
The Stallings bunch now is 5k
games behind the pace-setting
Dodgers and three games behind
Philadelphia margin which it
is impossible to overcome in the
remaining 16 games the Braves
can play.
Gradually, the Red Sox are
pounding their way to the Ameri-
can league pennant. They did not
gain on Chicago and Detroit in
their game yesterday for the two
runners-up also won. But they
brought their schedule one game
nearer completion and If they win
seven more games of their re-
naming ten, 1t will be impossible
for Chicago to overtake them.

Barry Beaned Fl Times In
Season; It Hurts Red Sox

Newspaper Enterprise AssociatioD)
One fast ball, pitched by Demon
Dave Davenport of the st. Louis
Browns, may knock the Boston
Red Sox out Of the 1916 American
league pennant!
This unfortunate delivery,
made in a game between the
Brownies and worlds champions
at Boston, Aug. 90, broke a bone
in BLACK Jack" Barry's right
hand. 1t was the 21st time this
season that the captain OF the
Back Bay steam-roller was
wounded by pitched balls.
With Barry ON the Key
stone sack Boston presents
powerful defensive machine,
the infield being the strong
est I'm the American league.
The dope shows that with
Barry playing, the champions
are almost invincible. With
him out of the lineup the
club, while still wonderful
combination, lacks 20 per
cent efficiency.
Before the beaning of the sec
ond sacker Boston was bowling
along in first place, toward an
other pennant. The club has lost
considerable ground since he was
hurt.
Should Boston rally and cop
the flag Barry will win his sixth
worlds series bonus-an honor
no other ball player ever won.
Incidentally Barry will swell his
world series money to $4,000.
He has drawn down 1000 to
date in the five titular combats.

There is a political logic in this por-

mind of the voter is expressed by the
frequent remark:

sincerity and a willingness to sacrifice

MR.. HUGHES ANSWERS.
Those Who cIamored for His Views
Are Hearing Them

Those friends Of Democracy who
clamored SO loudly for Mr.. Hughes
opinions upon current issues while
he still held the high Office Of Justice
of the supreme court, r now fully
answered by the private citizen, who
surrendered his judicial position to
accede to the wishes of q majority Of
the people as expressed through their
instructions to their delegates to the
Republican national convention.
Mr.. Hughes has not disappointed
those who have reposed confidence In
his character and Judgment. In his
speech of acceptance he has clearly
set forth the vital issues upon which
the Republican party proposes to
conduct the campaign this fall. On
the platform he is telling the nation
wherein the present administration
has been at fault and what is neces-
sary to be done to restore the United
Suites to the place Of respect and
honor to which 1t is entitled in the
eyes of the world.
