CHEATING CHEATERS," BIG
 ENTERTAINMEN AT MAJESTIC

The Majestic players offered one of the scleverest bills at the New Majestic last night that has been seen here in many weeks, in Cheating Cheaters ' Everybody in the story is cheated be- fore the final curtain, except the two leading crooks, one of whom turns out to be anything but a crook.
 Two gangs of crooks seek to rob two are away for the summer, and the crooks take possession of their homes and impersonate the l~aI owners.
 One gang is led by a, woman, the other by man, and before the play is half over these two clever young people are in love with each other.
 Miss Evelyn Watson as Nan Carey a leader. played her part in wonderful manner.
 Randolph Gray as Tom Palmer, the leader of another gang of crooks, also made good with the Majestic patrons. Daniel Reed as Antonio Verdi, an Ital- ian crook, was immense, and deserves special mention for the skillful manner in which he handled a very difficult part. Steve Wilson, Frederick Monley. Dorritt Kelton, Richard Glancton, Frank Hooper, Dixie Lotion, Erna Steck, Will lard Clayton, and Leila Nelson, all de- serve praise for their clever interpreta. tions of crooks. Frank Dare, the direc- tor of the company, is to be congratu- lated upon putting on a high-class per- 1 formance
 Cheating Cheaters" is a clever show and one that should be well received.

GRIFFITH'S MASTER FILM
 STILL PROVES POPULAR

thrilling spectacle ever screened. has again captured Birmingham. The pre- mier showing yesterday drew overflow crowds to the Trianon. Many people who flocked to the Trianon had seen the picture one or more times.
 The picture covers a wide range of American history and touches only the highest points of interest in the great events that led up to and terminated the civil war. The force that slavery played in producing this crisis is traced from it's inception to it's abolition. While the basic theme Is historical in it's founda- tion, it's intent is the fundamental one of true drama. Where directors of vast spectacles have dealt with hundreds in the past, Griffith employs thousands, for 1900 people fill his stage which has a vast territory for it's background, and

Not alone has Count BrockdorT- Rantzan, chief German peace pleni- potentfary, returned to Versailles from Spa, where he went Satur- day for a conference, but he brought back with him Herr Lands berg and Herr Gicsberts, two of the main members of the German delegation who had been in Ber- lin going over the situation with the authorities and also Il large retinue of naval, military and financial experts.
 Thus. indications are that the Germans intend to continue their efforts to come into agreement with the allied and associated repro sentativcs on peace terms that will be satisfactory to the German gov ernment and people.
 Meanwhile, reports continue to emanate from Germany of dissat- isfaction over the terms laid down for Germany to sign and re- iteration by President Ebert that the Germans will never affix their signatures to the treaty as 1t stands and that foreign countries will protest with Germany against ''this peace enslavement."

DARING AUSTRALIAN MEETS DISASTER IN
 EFFORT TO CROSS

(Continued from Page One) when Admiral Jacksons terse message was received.
 Even under the depression of earlier hours, however, officers were quick with tributes to the gallantry of Harry G. Hawker, the daring Australian, whose singIe-handed attempt to cross the At lantic by air, stalking his life and that of his pilot on pure luck, appealed to them strongly as a sporting venture. Officers said the Australian had the best wishes of the American naval service and hoped he succeeded, for no one would deserve it more.
 WITHSTANDS 9O-MILE GALE
 It had been saying of the service that the planes were built to ride any seas in which they could land. The NC-3 did more than that. She rode out gale that is said to have approached 90- mile rate at times and came Serenely taxi-ing into port, having kept steadily on her general course under guidance of her skillful crew. This spoke loudly to officers here of both sound building and rare skill and ingenuity. It established. they said, record for the service, prob ably for the world.
 When Secretary Daniels got the word of Towers safety he personally tele- phoned it to Mrs. Towers, wife of the officer, who had clung courageously to her faith and hope through the endless hours of waiting. The secretary also flashed to the officer a message of con- graduation and assurances as to Mrs. Towers knowledge that he was safe. Later Mrs. Towers received a cablegram from her husband saying only safe and well," but full of meaning to her. Reports on weather conditions about the Azores, cabled to the department to- night by Admiral Jackson, were not al- together favorable for start by the NC-4 on the next leg of the flight. Rain squalls still overspread that part of the ocean and the sea visibility remained | low.
