the first ten. His first ranking in this
class was in 1918, but then his game
improved SO rapidly that he came to
the front like comet. The following
season found him fighting Bill johnson
for the American crown and In 1920
he copped the L. S. laurels and topped

pionship in Wimbledon.
Both Tilden and johnson have played
on American Davis Cup teams. john
son was a member back in 1912 and Til
den has played with the United States
team for the last two years.
Tilden is an all around player. He
combines q sound back court game with
clever net play. He has an extraor-
dinary variety of strokes Rt his COM
mand, from a slow chop right over the
net to q smashing base line drive. His
placing is remarkable and his general
ship truly that Of genius.
Master of Chop Stroke
johnson is primarily a base line
player. He is absolute king of chop
stroke artists and has perfected this
stroke to point where 1t is his most
important asset. This, combined with
the fact that he Is the steadiest of them
all and a great tactician, has served to
keep him near or among the first ten
players in the country for the last four
teen years.
While both Tilden and johnson are
veterans, so called, and have been in the
game many seasons, neither Is a veteran
in point Of years. Tilden reached his

Warns MOVIE FOLK
TO CLEAN Up LIVES
Scandals Likely to Destroy
Their Hold on Public,
Editor Declares
RAPS BUMPTIoUs STARS

New York. Sept. II. - A solemn.
warning. to the actors and actresses OF
the motion picture profession is given
IN the latest issue Of the Motion Picture
News, In an editorial written by the
editor, William A. Johnston.
Ihe editorial, inspired by the Ar
buckle Rappe case, pointed out that a
continuation of the orgies which have
brought death to participants and dis
honor to the profession would altenate
the support Of the public, which has
made possible the huge salaries paid to
photoplay stars.
Cinema stars are urged to clean
house" in 50 far as their public de-
pertinent and conduct are concerned.
The alternative offered by Johnston Is
that the same forces that made you
Will rise up and put you out OF business
overnisht-destroy you In the same way
you were created"
The editorial says In part:
This is written without knowledge
OF the true facts of the lamentable
Arbuckle affair. It is fervently hoped
cleared. This much is certain, however,
that the publicity thus far has put an
other unbearable burden of infamy upon
the motion picture. Every individual
within the industry will In some degree,
large or small, feel the stigma Of Il.
These blots are inerasable.
I'VE wish only, in this connection,
and hopefully, to put some solemn facts
before every motion picture star.
They are these:
Few, very few, Of you are artists,
an artist being an individual who by
dint of tremendous work, patience and
long and supreme self-denial brings to
perfection some particular endowment
of talent.
"You are-most all Of you-just
human beings.
Your picture stardom is largely the
result of some one else's brains and
money, plus, especially, the magic cir
culation Of the motion picture.
Many of you are mere Photographic
types. go,
"In an incredibly short time and by
q kind Of magic your face and name arc
known to millions Of people.
"You bedeck yourself and strut with
all the simple vanity Of peacock. You
become as captious and cruel as any

Yes. most of the people there were
Intoxicated, she replied.
Can you give am instance Of any
thing immoral at these partiesT
We'll, they seemed very rough to

hot and cold baths" She was asked {.

Such is what Mrs. Annette Adams,

IF the hotels would co operate more

there would have been no party that

debate about "intent to defraud," the
accident of an Foverdrawn bank &C

existed. All the changes Of the "bum

cent and deliberate offenders, were
wrung by the congressional debaters.
At the height Of it all Represen-
tative Gilbert N. Haugen, Of Iowa,
asked unanimous consent to proceed
for two minutes "out Of order" The
consent was granted.
"Mr. Speaker" he said, 81 note in
