GENERAL FILMDOM NEWS

"The Two Edged Sword" at the Orpheum is a display of hatred of one woman from another brought on by woman, married person flirting with an unsuspecting boy from the country. The boy suicides when he finds out the duplicity of the flirting one but the sister, i'm personated by Edith Storey, takes up the battle to avenge her bro- ther. Josephine Earle plays the fiirtuous one, Evart Overton the boy, and Robert Gaillord the hus- band. There are many good scenes and many good points. Being a Nitlgraph insures good settings and scenery, one near the last when a canoe comes out of the moonlight on lake and another the auto collision.

Chip Works for Go with Darcy

George Chip is raising nob with opponents since he returned to this country from Australia The New castle battler was badly disappoint- ed when Les Darcy ran away from Australia, robbing him of a re- turn match, and he has started on a campaign which he hopes will match with the Australian on this side of the big pond.
 Chip contends he was not right when Darcy laid him low in nine rounds and he is clamoring for a chance to prove it.
 There are few middleweights who can hit any harder than Chip and he proved that he retains his wallop by practically stopping the rugged George "Kayo' Brown in a twelve-round battle at Youngs- town, O., early in February
 Brown collapsed just as the final bell rang and was out for about ten minutes, according to reports.
 Aside from giving Brown the beating of his life, Chip has knock ed out Sailor Einer., the tough CiIcy scrapper. and has also plas- tered sleeper ticket on the vet eran cave man, Bob Moha. Finer; took the full count in the second round and Moha made his deep sea dive in the fourth. So George has something to boast about.

Quoted by that resourceful obstruc-

the House in session until nearly
midnight last night, took members
away from theater and dinner parties
and caused rumors to spread through
Washington that a new crisis had
arisen in international affairs.
As a matter of fact there was no
crisis. The proposition before the
House was a simple little bill to put
a Democrat in lieu of a Republican
on the board of governors of the
National Soldiers Home. The place
carries no salary, but the Republicans
grew indignant when the proposition
was made to install a deserving
Democrat" and Minority Leader Mann
began to flibuster. 1t was the rst
real filibuster OF the present session.
