YANKEE ACTOR
Raymond Hitchco ok Says
"Dear Old BIighty" Best
Governed City on Face
of Universe.

London, (By MaiD.-"There is a
little newsboy in New York who
makes it an invariable rule, when
ever am staying there to walk
alongside and whistle in his cheeki-
est manner, All Dressed Up and
Nowhere to Co." says Raymond
Hitchcock, the famous American
actor, in the London Daily Express.
II have neither rebuked nor en-
couraged him, for often there has
been much truth in his whistling,
but the morning l made my way to
the dock to set sail for London he
broke through my reserve. I'm
dressed up, sonny, but | have some

I'm glad to be back in London?
| am; and what a contrast to my
last visit, when lights were low
cred, when the boche-but there's
no need to dwell on that picture.
Now ! can feel the warmth of the
city. The real reason | came to
London is that | was feeling terri
bly, homesick for the dear old place,
and, incidentally, of course, | AM
trying to Justify my existence in
'Hullo, America at the Palace thea
ter.
Il have travelled all over the
world, but there is no town that ap-
peals to me like London. I wonder
if you, who are natives of this city,
can understand why l, Yank,
should be gripped by strange land,
and why it has gotten under my
skin?
Somehow I do not look on Eng
land as foreign country. Perhaps
it is because my ancestors sailed
from here in the Mayflower nearly
800 years ago. They fled from per-
secution, and history records that
when the Pilgrim Fathers landed
they fell on their knees; six months
later they fell on their aborigines.'
They probably laid the foundation
Of democratic government.
DO you know if you had as much
sunshine in London as we have in
New York you could not possibly
house the people who would want
to live here-not that you have
much spare room now. The reason
is that London is the best governed
and most enlightened city in the
world. In the democratic American
towns there is nearly always
boss ready to impose his own be-
liefs and opinions on the masses.
Take, for example, the prohibi-
ton question, and examine it from
an ordinary common sense point oi
view. 1t is an accepted fact that
the vast majority of the people are
not drunkards. Nobody wants
drunkard. l have no use for one in
any of my stage productions-no
employer has. Yet. because a MI
nority of 'cranks' have seen some
people ruin themselves through
drink they wish to impose total pro-
hibition.
What will be the result? Money
is ohlnipotent in such cases. The
rich man will get all he wants,
while the poor man will turn his
kitchen into distillery, to say moth
ing of the dope danger.
1T is uncomfortable to imagine
such a state of affairs in London.
She is too solid and all the time I
am away l feel like a child who has
strayed from its mother. It's

Getting Rid of BlackheadS-

There is one simple, safe and sure

ounces of ncroxin from any drug
store for about fifty cents. Sprinkle
little on hot, wet sponge. rub over

parts and you will be surprised how
the blackheads have disappeared
Blackheads are simply a mixture OF
dust and dirt and secretions from
the body that form in the pores of
the skin. Pinching and squeezing
only cause irritation, make large
pores and do not get them out after
they become hard. The neroxin and
the water simply dissolve the black
heads so they wash right out, Icav-
ing the pores free and clean and in
their natural condition.

In one of the most thrilling con-
tests ever played on the Galesburg
floor, the Rock Island high school
basketball quintet romped through
the tournament games winner
Saturday night, defeating the fast
GaleSbUrg five by the close score
of Is to 16. The victory brought
the Northwestern district title to
the crimson and gold camp, and
with it a chance to compete in the
state tourney for higher honors.
Truly spectacular was the finish.
On the small end of a Is to
count at the finish of the first half,
the locals came back in the final
stanza and held their opponents
without a basket, at the same time
piling up total of Is points; Civ
ing the crimson and gold at the
final whistle a lead of two points
for the game and the district title.
The last half rally of the Island
City boys was a great exhibition
and brought a well merited win
to the Rock Island aggregation.
Before the final tilt, first and
second, alI-district teams were
picked by the officials who had
refereed the games. Rock Island
had two men on the first team.
Dopp was picked for right guard
and captain, and Ray Parks was
selected for left forward. Others
selected on the team were Albro,
Galesburg. right forward; Myers,
Altoona, center, and Gracomelli,
Spring Valley, left guard.
Dopp and Parks probably owe
their places on the team to the
good work they did for the Island
ers Saturday. AIbro of GaIesburg
has a good eye for baskets and
rolled in q good number for his
team. Myers is a fast man and
when he dribbled under the basket
Altoona usually had two more
points. GracomelH of Spring Val
ley played a strong guarding game
throughout the tournament and
aided a great deal in keeping down
opponents scores.
On the second a1l-tourney team,
Paul Anderson was selected for
center.
Throughout the tourney the ISL
anders exhibited classy form. In
the first game Thursday evening
the Islanders met and vanquishel
Kewanee. 80 to 81. Friday after
noon Rock Island defeated DePue
by the score of 80 to -. In the
next game it was predicted that
Rock Island would play Moline. but
dope was upset and Spring Val
ley having defeated Moline on the
preceding day, met the Islanders
on Saturday morning. VI the first
half of the game it was nip and
tuck and the score at the end of
the period was IS and ID. In the
second half the Islanders pulled
away from the down state boys
and using substitutes in the last
quarter won easily, "a to 81.

AUCIE WINS ON
TWO DAY JAUNT
Defeat Eureka and Bradley Poly in
Close Games-Chances Bright
in State Tourney.

Augustana's basket men pulled
up two notches toward the top of
the championship chance sheet Fri
Gay and Saturday nights when they
took brace of the fastest confer
ence contenders into camp, Eureka
and Bradley. They outpointed Eur
eka by a 1924 score and defeated
Bradley 1921.
The Eureka game was slow and
sluggish. Neither team seemed to
be able to break away for an exhi-
bition OF any OF the teamwork dis
played in former games.
The Bradley game at Peoria was
different tale. The Peoria college
quintet lived up to its reputation OF
playing a clean, fast and hard fight
ing game. but the Augie men out
stripped them in speed. According
TO Coach Berg it was the fastest
game played by the Rock Island
men this season. Bursts OF team
play and sensational passing were
the order. Both teams played with
ease, precision, and speed. A low
record of >fouIs called indicates
clean playing by both hosts and
visitors.
The Eureka and Bradley contests
were the last of the present tourna-
ment season and the Augustana
men are ready for the tournament
at Bloomington Thursday. Dope
as to the outcome is almost too
completely upset to afford a reason
able guide to judgment.
Good Record.
Augustana has played 10 games.
Out of these they have won seven
end lost three. They have rolled
up a total of 319 points to their OPP
ponents' 266. Out of the 10 games
played six were conference games,
played with teams of the Little
49," The Augie team has won four
out OF these six. Their only confer
ence defeats were both at the hands
Of Illinois Wesleyan.
Although Augustana has lost to
Wesleyan, Bradley, who have been
beaten twice by the Rock Island
team, has defeated her. Bradley
defeated Millikep while Milliken
defeated Wesleyan. If, therefore,
conclusions are to be drawn from
the dope at all, Augustana has an
edge on the five other strongest
conference contenders. Bradley,
Milliken, Wesleyan and Eureka.
