Mary Bewitches
Movie Fans With
New Scotch PLAY

Mary Pickford in kits is a very
bewitching Mary, as anyone will
admit who sees the captivating
little star in THE Pride of the
Clan," shown at the Colonial all
of the week. 1t is one of those
roles so happily suited to the Pick
ford personality.
Little Mary appears as her ma
tural self in the role of the Scotch
girl, Marget. The golden curls
and the silvery smile are much in
evidence, although the photoplay
is not without its tears.
There is also plenty of dramatic
opportunity for Miss Pickford. The
scene in which Marget gives UP
her lover in order that he may be-
come rich and we'll educated is
splendidly enacted by Little Mary.

AMATEURS FUTURE
WILL BE DECIDED ON

The future of amateur
baseball, as "a nationally Or
gained sport will be decided
at a meeting of delegates OF a
score of cities at Toledo,
January 10.
There are number of import
ant questions to be discussed al
this meeting which will decide
whether the association is to
represent amateur or semi-pro ball
and whether the name National
Federation of Amateur Baseball
Clubs is to designate natloal
or sectional organization.
There is movement on foot to
make the organization sectional;
that is to include teams east OF
the Mississippi and north of the
Ohio.
Those who favor this plan sug-
gest that Southern, Middle-We
ern and Pacific coast associations
might be organized along similar
lines and post season series could
be played between the sectional
winners to determine the national
championship
The advantages of such a
system, its hackers declare,
would do away with long rail-
road jumps which are seldom
profitable and often produce
big loss for the teams pay
ing the expenses.
Attendances, 1t has been shown,
are seldom large at preliminary
elimination games, but for final
games to decide championships il
Is usually not difficult thing to
obtain expense money.
