''The Courage of Marge O'Doone and "The Siren," presented by c. B Maddock, lead at Polls this week. Frank Dobson and Emma Cook of this city. are appearing in ''The Siren."
 There is little question that either Tine Courage of Marge O'Doone or The Siren is the best there is in photoplay or in vaudeville. One in the far North, showing graphically the scenes of courage and of adven- ture that are so well depicted in the novel by James Oliver Curwood. The other in real life presents all the beauty of womanhood, the creations of the most eminent costumers and the vocal excellence of the conserva- tory. With Frank Dobson as the leading star in this piece there is an assured volume of comedy.
 But the home talent does not stop with these mentioned, for Hal Springford himself appears in some of his feminine fancies. To say that he closely approaches, if he does not equal Eltinge, is to put the case mildly.
 Kennedy and Nelson in acrobacy offer some daring work, delightful in it's presentation.-M Miller and Braford
 Pathe News and a two reel comedy make this performance an attraction against any hot weather.

By JAMES J. CoRBETT

It,s rather difficult to figure what club will present the strong est opposition.
 The Cardinals, the Philltes and inc Dodgers can be discarded as powerful foes on the preseason done. It's unlikely that the Braves will show anything better than second division strength. And the same thing goes for the Pirates.
 That leaves the CutE and the Giants as the outstanding opposi- tion. But just what each will show during the coming season is more or less of a question at this time. The Giants enter the fight with a strong pitching stafs-one more powerful than that of sea son ago. But as an offset 1t intro duces practically A new lnfield combinations Hal Chase will be gone from first; Larry Doyle, un- doubtedly, will not figure regularly at second, and it's a big problem as to whether Heinie Zimmerman will be at third.
 Around Fletcher, the veteran shortstop. who has been slowing up a little during the past season or two, must be 8 new Inner breast works Kelly probably will be on first. Frisch at second with the third base occupant still undeter- mined. Maybe the new McGraw combination will be stronger than that of 1919. If so, 1t should give the Reds fight all the way along the battle front If not. then the Giants can't be reckoned seriously for the pennant--unlcss the Reds slip far from the power they at- tained last season.

 Play the Cincinnati Reds to rec peat
 Looking at it superficially, that is the general conclusion. For the Reds, based upon what they ac- complished in 1919. constitute an outfit that has the power to show it's heels ts all opposition. But the Reds of 1920 and the Reds of 1919 may be something radically different.
 The pitching staff will number all the stars of a year ago. But in 1919 every finger performed in spectacular style. It's hardly pos sible for an entire pitching staff to repeat One or two of the Red hurlers may go on to the same sublime heights they achieved last season. It's within the realms of possibility that Sallee and Fischer, the veterans, will slow Up little and that their winning percentage of this coming season will be ap- preciably less than it was in lvls.
 Furthermore, the Redland infield with the exceptoin of kopf-iS a veteran one. It's likely that one of the three ld-timers-Daubert, Rath or Groh--may slow up. If that happens it may stall the mec- anism of Pat Moran's machine.
 If the Reds, man for man, can play near to the 1919 standard, they should win this season with out trouble. But if one or two skid-then 1t may be a different story.
