"MY GOLDEN GIRL" DELIGHTS AUDIENCE
 AT THE JEFFERSON

The tuneful music of Victor Herbert lends distinction to "My Golden Girl which opened an engagement at the Jefferson theatre last night. The piece is characterized by number of pretty airs, some of them well sung by vari- ous members of the company, and the music is enhanced by attractive cos tumes, as well as some pleasing stage effects. The setting for "An Old-Fash- toned Garden was especially beautiful, the wall of the garden being covered with coIored lights to simulate flowers
 The plot, such as there is, deals with the matrimonial differences of a devotee of the saxophone and his wife, who think they are mismated Two affipities, of the husband and wife; respectively, ar rive on the scene, promptly fall in love with each other and finally convince the married couple that they might as well continue in double harness. Marriage is a lottery, anyhow
 The comedy is rather thin and does not provide what one could call mirth- ful evening, but My Golden Girf' is re- deemed from mediocrity by the music, which is above the average. And there was some unusual dancing done by Mil- died Goodfellow, assisted by K. Christy.
 The principal parts were played by Harold S. Orr, Carrie Reynolds, Harry l4ermsmen and Jack Freed, the two comedians; Loretta. Sheridans. who has a pleasing personality and sings well;s Ar thur McClaslSie Augustus Buell., Louise Willis, Jack Paulton and Gladys Gay.
 There will be a matinee this afternoon and a performance tonight, ending the engagement.

ALABAMA MATTERS CAUSES UNDERWOOD
 ID HASTEN RETURN
Muscle Shoals Appropriation and Tariff Bill Require Sen- ator's Attention-Senate
 May Approve Plant
Fly HUGH W. ROBERTS Washington Bureau The Age-Herald.
 800 Davidson Building.

Washington, December 24.-(Special) Senator Underwood, democratic leader, is returning to Washington hastily on account of the precarious situation in- Nolving the nitrate plants at Muscle Shoals and the necessity of the Senate taking definite action regarding the emergency tariff bill passed by the House this week. He is expected to reach the capital Monday.
 The subcommittee of the appropria- tions committee of the House will make its adverse report on an appropriation of $10,000,000 for Muscle Shoals to the full committee Tuesday. While the odds are that the committee will not reverse the action of it's subcommittee, there is little question but that the fight for that object will be strenuous.
 The crux of the nitrate situation is centered in the bill before the Senate ment corporation for the manufacture of fertilizer in time of peace. If that bill is enacted, Congress will be forced adequately to appropriate. The farm CTS of the country, it is learned to- night, also are engaged in the struggle, and are wiring their pleas to individual members of the republican party.
 It is anticipated that the views of Senator Underwood regarding the tariff bill, alleged to have been prepared in behalf of the farmers of the country, will obtain among other democrats of the Senate. As previously stated, the disposition of the Senate at present is to oppose it. Senator Underwood has not permitted Washington to know in advance what position he will assume.

Reuther-Marquard Trade Seems to Be
 Poor One for Reds

Cincinnati, December 24-If Pat Moran and Garry Hermann of the Reds. want co to make baseball the leading topic of conversation in this mans town they certainly took the right course whep they traded Walter Reuther to Brooklyn for Rube Marquad.
 But if they were trying to strengthen the Reds-well, about all of Cincinnatis baseball population seems to think they might as we'll have given Reuther away.
 Redland bugs will never put Pat and Garry in the David 1arum class for that deal unless the Rube should prove a | wonder next year. Moran believes Rube at least will do as we'll for the Reds as Reuther will do for Brooklyn. Otherwise he never would have made tn, deal
 The bugs here are not knocking the Rube any, but they can't see him as an even swap for Reuther pitcher whom ! they believe is the best southpaw in the business.
 They know Reuther has been diff ficult man for Moran to handle and that Pats gray hair got grayer because ther,

ALEXANDER, THE MAN WHO
 KNOWS" EXCITING INTEREST

Keen interest is being manifested in the Forthcoming visit of the master mystic, Alexander, '"The Man Who Knows" who is scheduled for an engagement of six days at the Jefferson theatre, commence ing Monday, with special matinee for the ladies only on Thursday and gen. eral matinee Saturday.
 Wherever he has appeared Alexander established a precedent for attractions of A mysterious nature and promises are made that his production this season even exceeds in every way all former ef- forts.f
 New feats of magic have been added to his repertoire, but it is the world-famed Simla seance which will doubtless create the most attention from the local theatre aoers It is in this demonstration or psychic forces, thought projection or what one may care to term it, that Alex ander answers sealed questions, written at home and in any language.
 In the second act there are promised some of the Orient's most famous dance CT cations, interpreted by Lillian Marion and the Nartel sisters, foremost expo nents of this particular style of dancing. Among the several dances the dance Of The Spirit of Incense" or the crystal dance of India, is said to be conspicuous and to be one of the most unusual terpsi- chorean studies ever introduced.

were times when he couldn't depend on the California left-hander
 But just the same they consider Reuther the peer of Marquard by sev- eral city blocks
 There seems no disposition on the part of the bugs to quarrel with Pat and Garry for trading off Reuther. The way he failed in the last two months of the 1920 season after setting the league on fire through April, May, June, and July prepared them for his depar- ture.
 But they believe a better trade than Marauard could have been obtained for him. and are saying so emphatically.
 Marquard was not taken on by the Reds until the league had decided he did not deserve any further punishment for the ticket scandal which centered around him during the world series at Cleveland last fall. He then was fined g and cost in a Cleveland police court for alleged scalping in world series paste boards It was not proved he sold any l tickets, but the fact was established that he had offered some for sale at a big l profit for himself

murrers filed by attorneys for Borton and Maggert but held that defects in the indictments could not be cured by a resubmission of the matter to the Los Angeles county grand jury.
 This was said to mean the end of the case. so far as any criminal prosecution was concerned, the dismissal of the charges against the four accused men.
 Judge Willis said the players in sign ing contracts with the teams had en- tered into an agreement to play base ball to the best of their ability. But, he continued, admitting they had not done so, their act amounted only to a breach of a civil contract which, he held, was in no way "actionable as a criminal case"
 Judge Willis declared that the action of the men, if they were guilty. was reprehensible, but there was no remedy along the lines of criminal prosecution.

HIS PALMA GIRL" COMEDY WITH UNUSUAL TURN

Billie Rhodes is at the Alcazar through today, in, 'His Pajama Girl,'' a comedy drama.
 There is a startlingly unusual twist to this picture just at the point when things look bluest for Dainty Billie. She goes through lifetime of ad- ventures in a few short days in an effort to assist her sweetheart in the detection of several notorious plotters; and unknown to both, her father is also implicated. And when things seemed just about to be nicely strengthened out little Billie disappears clad only in her Pink Pajamas. And from there on things do happen. t
 A fofding bed plays very important part of the picture. It's disappearance did not cause the husband much con cern until he learned that his wife was inside of it. The search for the missing folding bed with it's human cargo bring about many laughs and a goodly number of chucLleS.

IDOLS OF CLAY" AT STRAND
 HAS FINE LOVE THEME

The man had worshiped a beautiful woman He had laid all his love and hopes at her feet. only to find her a cold and killing mockery, to end by seeing that in her life he was only her latest fad, a means of selfish gratifica- ton. This situation gives the motive for Idols of Clay" at the Strand, and the woman described gives the play it's name. But all idols are not of clay. Later there comes into the mans life another and truer woman. in beautiful romance on an isle in the southern seas. At first the mans eyes are too blinded with prejudice to appreciate new love laid at his feet, by a girl who knows no subterfuge But later, when fame becomes a cold thing and former pleas ures empty, he seeks her, but it is too late, until long struggle and regenera- tion of the fallen girl Mae Murray ap- spears as the girl of the isle, with David Powell as the artist hero.

A perfect gale of comedy of the we'll Beloved Mack Sennett variety of fun making makes up Love, Honor and Behave" at the Tranon. This is a Sennett comedy with connected plot.
 The idea at the bottom of all the trouble Sennett characters are always in trouble, is that some dastardly black nlailers get poor innocent judge into some compromising positions and take some snapshots that do not exactly fit in with the general idea of a Judges dignity. The fun is furnished by the positions. which are ridiculously and ob- viouslyz compromising, the attempts to blacknail and subsequent chasing of the blackmailerS.

 Before sailing Hardy was instructed to see that the challenging players had a full three weeks of practice. Their late arrival necesstated the postponement l from today and following days until the | week between Christmas and New Year s. i No cable message from Hady have been l received during the past week, MT. | Myrick is eXpectant, however, that a message will be received before the meet | Ing or the lnleTnallOndl cOOIliltSc SCNeu-
 uled for next Monday. At that time word as to the condition of the players
 and details as to arrangements are looked 1 for.

 | The Australians have officially nom l mated Norman F.. Brookes, Gerald l. Patterson, Patrick O'Hara Wood and Rod w. Heath, as the defending team
 The selection was left entirely to Brookes who holds the position of captain on his l side.
