Charles Roser. manager of the
Lyric, announced today that he has
secured the real action war pictures,
released in American under the aus
pieces of the German general staff, and
presented under the management OF
H. Meyer-Rithlow, veteran Of the
present war.
The pictures will be shown here
next Tuesday and Wednesday. They
are vivid presentation of actual war
scenes and are not posed films nor
action pictures taken behind the fir
ing line by troops detailed for this
purpose.
II. Meyer-Rithlow won his Iron
Cross in the Russian campaign and is
the first veteran of the war to reach
American soil. He is feldwebel in
German army and is in America on a
furlough. The money that is realized
on the productions is used for relief
work among the prisoners. A lecturer
explains the pictures.
The films were shown to large
crowds at Fort Wayne early this week
The Fort Wayne News has the follow
ing coE--lent:
Taken from a standpoint of educa-
t1Onal news, the war pictures belng
shown at the Lyric theatre today for
the last time, are about as near per-
feet for securing the correct informa-
ton about the conditions in the
European war as anything yet discov-
cred.
Scenes along the battle front. in the
trenches, in the captured cities, the
hardships and struggling of the sol
Giers to murder their former neigh
bors, together with the care and at
tention accorded to each prisoner OF
war.
To help raise funds for the provis-
ion and protection of these prisoners
in Germany, H. Meyer-Rithlow, the
first German veteran to reach the
American shores, is showing the only
genuine motion pictures taken right

LOCAL PLAYERS
READY TO HOLD
STIvERS AT BAY

TIL, stivers-Richmond game makes
this a great night at the Coliseum
toward which all high school students
are looking with anxiety. The Dayton
crew has not lost game on the
Coliseum floor and they arc coming
over here with the strongest team
they can muster together.
The locals have not been seen on
the floor since before the holidays but
they have not been idle. Their trip
proved disastrous SO far as winning
games is concerned but it strengthen
ed the five in it's knowledge OF the
game.
Those who watched them play
against men who are larger In every
way are unanimous in saying that
Richmond has one of the best high
school basketball teams In the coun-
try.
Meranda and Pitts will both be in
the game tonight and the old machine
which has downed every high school
team it has played this year will again
be in working order.

Low POWER RATES
INTEREST FACTORIES

"The lower the electric power rate
the city is able to offer, the more in
ducement 1t will be for factories to
locate in Richmond" said E. NJ. Haas,
secretary of the Commercial club. III
the municipal plant can offer one
cent power rates. or perhaps less. fac
tories will find that Richmond will be
the place to locate"
Mr.. Haas said that in cities like
Springfield, O., where exceedingly low
power rates are offered, even through
a private corporation, the city finds 1t
easy to interest factories.

BATTLE TO BREAK
TIE WITH MUNCIE

Polo history may be made tonight
when Richmond lines up against its
most feared rival. A victory will give
the locals more confidence when they
get Muncie on the home floor and if
they can get lead of a few games in
the series being played they will bat
tie more desperately to win.
Much depends on tonight's game,
for the Quakers have dropped the last
two games to their rivals and the
loss of another one will hardly tend to
inspire them with confidence.

PHEGGS WORK HARD
FOR NATCO SERIES

The Natcoes lost three games to the
Pheggs in the Business Mems league
race at the Y. M. C.. A. alleys last
night. 1t was hard going for them in
the last two games but they managed
to nose out ahead.

CAAR DENIES REPORT

Clem Gaar, a member of the board
of directors of the Coliseum, today
emphatically denied the report that
negotiations were being carried on to
induce Eddie Higgins, former rush on
the Muncie polo team, to relieve Lou
Quigley. Mr.. Gaar said a number of
fans had mentioned higgins as pos
sible member of the team, but that
the directors did not even know where
Higgins is located, and that no attempt
had been made to communicate with
him in an effort to induce him to join
the team. The directors are satisfied
with the team and believe it capable
of holding it's own with either Indi-
annapolis, Muncie or Racine.
