Granville Barker. Leader
OF English Drama, Coming

Granville Barker, English actor and
author, will lecture in Richmond Wed
nesday evening, Jan. %, under the
auspices Of the literary department
of the Womans club. Mr.. Barker is
one of the first English dramatic writ
ers of the day. He not only is a dra-
matist but manager, producer and
actor of renown.
AS a producer he has worked with
Yeats, Barrie, Shaw, Mansfield and
Galsworthy. AS writer he resembles
Shaw in method of constructions and
expression of ideas. The longer plays
Of Barker, those which rank highest
are distinctly English in character
and perhaps for this reason have not
been produced in this country.
The play with which the American
public is most familiar is "Prunella'
written in collaboration with Lawrence
Housman. This play has been seen
on the legitimate stage and in the
movie, Marguerite Clark appearing in
the latter production, in the leading
part.

AMERICANS CARRY
BASEBALL WITH 'EM
Bv JACK kEENE

Wherever the American goes his
national game goes with him. Sol
diers from the United States and
Canada carried baseball to Europe
and were unsuccessful in arousing
more than casual interest among the
people of England and France in the
pastime. Englishmen and Frenchmen
watched the movements of the players
with about the same kind of interest
the American shows in Westminster
Abbey or the famous Louvre. but they
were about as anxious to play the
game themselves as Babe Ruth might
be to learn Chinese.
Then the Red Cross workers hit
upon baseball as way to interest
native convalescents in the hospitals
of Serbia and Rumania, but the sue
cess OF the movement was not mark
ed. The patients were anxious enough
to play anything the Americans pro-
posed, but they wanted wider bats
and balls that did not travel so swiftly.
The game was simply too strenuous
for them.
One effort, however, to introduce
baseball outside Of America seems to
be meeting with success. Near east
relief workers who are caring for the
Armenian orphans in Turkey have in
troduced baseball into the orphanages
and are meeting with success. The
children are showing a great interest
| in the game, and it is possible that Ar
| menia may be the first country out
side of the continent of North America
| to have professional and amateur ba Sc
ball teams.
Mike O'Dowd, the niddleweight
chamDion has signed a set of articles
for bout with Georges Carpenter
and has sent the same over to France.
| O'Dowd challenged the Frenchman re-
! Gently in a cablegram, which was read
! from the ring just before the Beckett
!. Carpenter fight. So far he has re-
ceived no reply and O'Dowd wants to
! know why he has been ignored.
Mike fought Dick Smith in London
, and stopped him in few rounds.
Smith is the battler with whom Car
pentier tried himself out after his long
absence from the ring, and as the
t'renchman took longer to stop the
Englishman than O'Dowd did the lat

| capital opponent for Georges.
Jimmy Cla bby, who has been over
in Australia for the last four years,
is coming back to this country. AL
though Clabby is one of the oldest
boxers in point of ring service he still
is capable of performer, judging by
the way he has been able to handle
the Australian heavyweights. Clabby

a chance at the state and I. c. A. L.

Quaker rooters was short lived. how
ever, as Rose Poly was credited with
eight additional points through the
accurate long shots of Reinking, Har-

another marker on a foul shot by
Lawler.
With only five minutes of play re-
manning and Earlham six points to
the bad, Coach Move substituted Goa-

celebrated his entry by caging a goal
from a difficult angle. Huff added
two more points and Johnson, the
husky Quaker backguard, dribbled the
length of the floor to cage the tying
goal.
Goal Did Not Count.
The netting on the east goal was
caught and the ball would not stay in
the basket. Coach Move protested to
the referee, claiming that Johnson's
goal should be counted but his claim
was net allowed.
Pitts threw the goal that caused
the game to go into overtime. Soon
after the start of overtime, Goar Gagged
what was hoped would be the winning
basket, but in spite of the desperate

John Fox, Jr., will have its local pre-
sentation. This play comes here with
the acclaimt Of several of the latest
Eastern cities, was recently given in
Philadelphia where cast and produc-
ton won the heartiest commentator.
The story is of Kentucky--of the feuds
and the primitive loves and quarrels
of the true hearts but. rough man
nered mountaineers. The period is
during the five years from 1860 to
1865 and the tale is devoted to the
happenings that mean SO much in the
life of Chad, wandering mountain
lad and to the petite and lovely
Melissy. Geo. Simpson, who is said to
be ideal for the role of Chad is in
the leading male role: Dorothy Dunn
who was the Wendy with Maude
Adams company in "Peter Pan" is
the Melissy. The settings give a
splendid idea of Kentucky mountain
scenery and the third act interior is
perfect reproduction Of the living
room of an old Southern family.
