 perienced farce players which in

 funny men of the stage who has been
 a conspicuous entertainer in many ott the best musical comedies of the day,

 stands quite apart from the usual or
 der of musical plays. The book is by

 Wife. The caAhy music by George
 Gershwin, is the sort that sets the foot

 As one might surmise from the ti- tie La La Lucille is a smart, snappyif up-to date type of musical play with really interesting story. chiefly about a young couple who must be divorced to inherit large fortune.

When Doctors Disagree is the in triguing title of Mabel Normand's new GoldWin Picture to be seen at the Davis theatre Sunday. There is evl cry reason to predict that the viva cious comedienne will strike the high spots of fun and originality in the piece because it is genuine farce, so well wrought that it will be surprise if it doesn't find it's way to the stage.
 Miss Normand is Millie Martin. ac- companying her father on her first railroad journey On the same train is a worthy young carpet layer who is fleeing from an imaginary crime. Armed with doctors pass. he pre- tends to be physician but is terrified when addressed as doctor" He is too scared to respond to Millie's blar- dishments, so she hits upon way t6- enlist his professional services. Feign- ing toothache, she begs her stingy parent to summon a doctor. Instead, her father forces a wad of chewing to- bacco into her mouth A sharp curve a sudde. lurch and-Millie swallows the medicine" Then the doctor" has to come He orders an operatien- the train is rushed to the next sta- ton and Millie is hurried to a sana-. torium with the mock doctor forced along too. The ensuing events are laughable in the eXtre;he, and Millie's escape from the knife is miraculous.
 Topics of the Day, post travel pie. lures and a funny comedy entitled
 Shadows of Rest complete this exeep tional program.

BREED THEATRE.

Mabel Normand heads the double feature bill at the Breed theatre to- day in the sure fire comedy drama. "Jinx" Mabel has certainly rung the bell with her lataest offering and the laughs come with az regularity that keeps you hayyp; all of the comedy blending naturally into the story. Can you imagine opening up with Mabel in a funny roustabout's costume seat ed nonchalantly under a big elephant manicuring his nailse That first irl- troduction gets you and from that time on you will be with Mabel, because the comedy continues fast and furf- ous without ever running too far afield to register effectively. The cir GUS atmosphere furnishes fine back ground for the comedy and if you don't get a good time out of this circus, stun there is something wrong.
 Dixie Lee and Arthur Behrens will also be seen in Where Bonds Are Loosed,' one of the most unusual pie lures ever made and the Pathe News will complete the bill.

 New London, Nov 14.-The city of New London having taken over the ferry business between { Groton and this city is now paying. the price and with full realization that it was a real big mistake in not renewing the con- tract with, the Thames Ferry com pany. The promoters of municipal ownership did so with wide-open eyes that the opening of the bridge high- way would cause a big drop in the ferry business. It was clear case of taking the business away from the company thai had managed the. busi- ness fully as satisfactory as under the city management. for reasons best known to the projectors which were not all for the public good. There was just mild undercurrent perhaps of personal nature. to put the ferry company out of business. The city was getting a. nice velvet income with no investment and the company was making good profit under careful management. The profit was turing to some of the voters and without look ing into the future the authority was given for the city to take over the business. and big sum of money was appropriated to start in the business.
 The city purchased two ferry boats and appurtenancessco connected with the business from the old company, and continued on without a break in the running schedule. One of the boats was continued in use and the spare boat was decided to be of no use and was junked, ,or abandoned, which, the deponent knoweth not; but it has never been seen on the lines under municipal management. Regardless of the future the city, through itsacon- < stiiuted authority bought a ferryboat down New York way. changed the name from Dorchester to Nathan Hale

M 'MANUS PLEASES
 B|G CROWD BY HIS
 SPEED IN TRAINING

Al McManus, Tucson boxer who ap- pears Friday night before the Phoenix A. C. in a ten-round bout with Ralph DeMott, soldier boxer, thrilled a large crowd of fans who watched him step through his training paces at the P. A. c. training quarters last evening. His work was even faster than on the pre- vious night.
 After a five-mile spin on the road yesterday morning, McManus rested until he donned his fighting togs for the afternoon workout at o'clock. He punched the bag, skipped the rope, mauled the dummy and then took on four different sparring partners for two-round sessions each. Its a good thing that these sparring partners were not scheduled for longer routes with the Tucson boy.
 McManus probably shows better in his training than any other performer who has boxed for the Phoenix Ath- letic club. He has everything that goes to give the fans a real enthusi- astic entertainment. including speed, cleverness and hitting power.
 It was seldom that his sparring partners ever reached him in the workouts yesterday and when they did the blows, for the greater part, were merely glancing. McManus has fac ulty for escaping punishment and such boys are always hard to beat.
 In DeMott he will meet a boxer who will carry the fight to him every inch of the way. DeMott uses much the same style in the ring as Young Brown always boring in in an effort to get in good solid jolt. More than that, he's willing to take two or three hard ones to land
 Although far from the best physical shape when he met Lefty Lewis here a few weeks ago, DeMott was the az gressor throughout and showed him. self to be willing and hard worker. 1 DeMott is expected to reach Phoenix this morning and will put the finish | ing touches on his training here He will work out each afternoon at the P. A. c. training quarters on East | Washington street, the time to be an nounced later.
 | Arrangements are now being made for the three preliminary events which
 will be announced within the next day or so.
