Al the "classic' meetings held az

The highest amount paid for the win

the Derby, amounting to s32, 900.
There is more betting on horse racing
than on any other sport. The English
law is peculiar on tina. point. Betting
on the race course is strictly legal, but
the passing of betting slips in the
streets is considered serious offense.
Yet one may legally place bets by call

are thousands of "backers - who make

Loew Merges Cinema
Houses in Cleveland

. Marcus Loew has engineered q deal
in Cleveland whereby all OF the first
class picture theaters Of that city
are banded together. Picture people
say the Loew move Is Of tremendous
import to the trade They attribute
the motive to Loew's desire as an
exhibitor to place himself in an i'm
pregnable position. against any pos
sible combination Of producers or dis
tributors of films.
One report says that Mr.. Loew
has actually taken over the Mall and
Alhambra, Cleveland. There are four
other houses concerned. without
names mentioned. but will probably
be easily identified. though termed
as OF the first class. Loew also in
tends building in Cleveland two
houses, one for vaudeville. Loew's
present Cleveland picture theater is
the Stillman. That Is included in the
combine.
There is no exact inforna ton avail
able here just how Mr.. Loew has
brought the Cleveland theaters to-
gether. whether through a community
of booking interests or fi1>ncislly. II
is quite well understood that the Loew
Circuit. with its enormous surplus
that is being carried could buy out
right all theaters 1t went after The
impression appears to be. however.
that Marcus Loew is lining I'D the
biggest exhibitors, locally,) and in
that way make the union cooperative
in so far as that may ever be neces-
sary for the protection Of any one
OF them.

THE coNSPIRAToR'S PUNCH

Walter McGrail. leading man for
Pearl White in her new Pathe serial,
I'm Secret" was struggling with
half dozen conspirators while the
camera was recording the scene,
one day last week. The boss con-
spirator was to plant a blow on the
corner of Mr.. McGrairs jaw and lay
him low.
The blow in rehearsal looked
great: but. in reality had no land
ing power.
When the scene started. however.
the boss conspirator became enthu-
siastic and wallcped Mr.. McGrail
with all the carefree abandon of a
real enemy.
Two or three minutes later the
broad-shouldercd young leading
man rose groggily to his feet and
congratulated his opponent on the
expression and feeling he had in
lected into the scene.
