MAJESTIC.

Much has been said of motion pic
ture fights. faxed and otherwise, but
there are not enough superlatives In
the dictionary to describe the scrap
put up by William Desmond and Rob-
ert Mckim in Master of His Home,
the new Triangle play featuring the
first named star, playing the Majestic
today and tomorrow.
Director Walter Edwards was de-
termined to make this fight different,
and the result was a clean-cut, fast
and furious fistic encounter IN which
the first blow sent Mckim spinning
across the room, and not a semi
wrestling match where the larttci-
pants roll about the floor thru several
hundred feet of film. After Desmond
landed the first punch he picked
McKim up and hurled him against a
nearby desk with a force that viii
bring a gasp from any audience. This
was not all accomplished so easily as
il appears in the film, however, as
McKim, altho of slightly smaller build
than Desmond, is very muscular and
quick as cat.
or course, for the purpose of the
story, 1t was necessary that Desmond
land the telling punch, but after the
two Triangle players got into the
the scrap would be declared draw.
The Desmond McKim scrap is of
brief duration but is fast and furious
while 1t lasts, and Triangle patrons
are promised an exhibition that will
keep them on the edge Of their seats
with excitement.
Alma Rueben appears in support Of
William Desmond in his latest Tri-
angle play, and the cast includes j. j..
Dowling and Eleanor Hancock. The
story is by r. Cecil Smith and direct
ed by Walter Edwards.

Already the "rogulars'' are begin

Tulsa cannot have a becfy team.
There is not n beefy man on the en-

will top the scales around the 175-
pound mark and they all have speed
to carry their weight around. All in

While Coach Gracey devoted most
of his time to the first team, he man
