1.-THE Weekend has a spicy,
humor-hlled plot and plenty of
quick action. The threads Of love,
jealousy, avarice, feminine curios-
ity and masculine eccentricities are
interviewer into a pattern Of the
typical Cosmo Hamilton type-pop-
ular always to both the readers of
his novels and the picture viewers.

Crescent Attraction
A story from everyday life, sad at
times, but prevented from being sor-
did by the strength of character of
a girl who started with almost moth
ing and achieved the desire OF every
woman's heart, will be shown at the
Crescent theatre in the presentation
of The Path She Chose" beginning
today. Its pathos is relieved by the
sweetness of its romance. Mr.. Rosen
selected an excellent cast for his
picture and the result is a film
drama of exceptional merit.
Anne Cornwall, a new Universal
star, has the part of a little slum
girl who refuses to be dragged down
by her environment. She leaves her
family, a profigate lot, and obtains
employment in a millinery factory.
Her improvement and advancement
is rapid and, as years pass. her
young employer learns to love her.
But her worthless brother appears
and tries to ruin all for his W sell
fish ends.

BY PERCY c. PoWELL.

Labor, the American Legion and the
Topeka Rotary club are new factors
county and city politicians must con-
slider in the approaching Republican
primaries.
j. o. Stevic, who is admitted by poll
iticians to be the real leader in labor
union circles, announced today that
the laboring men would enter into pol
itics at the approaching primary with
set program and real labor candi-
dates.
Tentative plans for handling the To-
cal political situation are to be de-
cided upon at a meeting of laboring
men in labor hall tonight. Definite
announcem~~t of a city platform for
the labor party will be postponed
however, penn the state labor meet
ing at Emporia, March %.
Returning to Topeka from the En-
poria meeting labor leaders will then
announce the state labor platform and
also a platform on local affairs In
county affairs it is not expected an en-
tire labor ticket will be drafted. La
boris attitude toward county officers
will depend upon the attitude of
county officers toward the labor plat
form.
But in city affairs labor leaders may
fight for the voting of big bond issue
for the extension of the city's water
mains and the installation of more
wells to relieve present conditions.

The following is list of the cam

Building campaign, in which 5000 was
collected from 5000 pledges.
Total amount Of money handled and
banked by him was 1881, 200, and more than
$43.0 600 Of this amount was collected in
partial payment pledges. and during the
war work period there was collected in
his office and proper record made on the
card index system Of from $500 to $500 per
day.
Small Payments.
When it is realized that many of
these pledges were made in small
amounts of ten payments to the
pledge, it can be easily understood
the amount of work which it must
have been to handle this work in his
office. In addition to this, he served
as head of the personnel department
of the Red Cross for this district, and
all applicants for Red Cross work
from this district had to report to
him and have their application blanks
filled out and forwarded by him to
the National Red Cross headquarters.
During the period of the war. more
than one-half of Arch NJ. Catlin's time
was given to war work. In the hand
ling of the job he was not only aided
by his assistant at the office of the
good wife at home. Much of this
work ofssending out notices had to be
done at home nights.
Prominent Citizens Record"
Too much credit cannot be given to
Arch Catlin for that part which he
played in bringing about the record of
which every citizen of Topeka has
right to be proud. If he was to make
detailed report of the amount still

HASKELL MAY PLAY HARVARD
Lawrence Indian School Aspires t.
Shoes Left Vacant by Carlisle.

Lawrence, Kan, March 6.-The
Haskell Indian football team may be
given a game with Harvard next fall
it was learned here today. A. M
Venue, manager of athletics at Has
kell, wired the Harvard authorities
some time ago asking that the Indians
be given place on the Eastern
schools schedule and today word was
received from Fred W. Moore, gradu-
ate treasurer of the Harvard Athletic
association, that he favored the In
dams for the open date on the Har-
ward schedule which is October 9.
In the word received from Moore
it was stated that Coach Donavan also
favored the Indians over the other
teams being considered for the date.
Manager Venue has been trying for
some time to break into the big class
in athletics and believes that the In
dams will be able to build up teams
that can give the Eastern schools a
hard game. Since Carlisle has ceased
to be a top liner in the college ath-
letic world, Haskell has been coming
to the front and should prove a big
attraction in the East.

The game was close turnout with
first one team taking the lead and
then the other during the first half.
The score at the end of the half stood

ward. shortly after the second period
opened. and Gagged three baskets in
rapid succession, giving the Jayhawk-
ers a lead which they held for the re-
mainder of the game.
The Kansas team took an eight
point lead, but goals by E. Waite and
Cox, together with a free throw by
McDermott, cut the lead to three
points. This was as close as the Soon
ers came to tying the score for the
remainder of the game.
Miller and Captain Lonborg were
the outstanding stars for Kansas,

best ball for the Sooners. The Soon
