Bill Hart doesn't so much as hold a gun or look at horse in his latest picture, ''The Whistle,'' shown at Poli's for the first time yesterday. The picture, which ends a bill of un- usual merit and variety, shows Hart as a foreman of g. mill in a New England town. His role calls for more than the usual amount of enno- tiona1 acting. the theme being tragic almost all the time, and the part is convincingly portrayed.

 But what prompted his interest in Sousa- was the question. At first it seemed it was the band master. He had followed every band that had marched along Main street in the last five years, keeping as close to the heels of the drum major as he dared afld since Sousa was called the great est band master in the world it nat ura11y followed that he must wear gaudier rega1ia, a greater bear skin hat and wield a wilier baton.
 Then he announced he was going to have his own band some day and the real reason came out. He had followed those bands from an in stinct too subtle for his simple young mind. Generations of martial and music loving ancestors had thrilled within him to their strains.
 It is needless to say that Antonio has been given a very special seat for the matinee performance of Sousa's 8 concert here at the Casino on Mon day, Sept. 12.
 Better still, Albert Steinert of M. Steinert & Sons, who is managing Sousa's local tour. is going to see to it personally that Antonio has a chance to talk with the great Sousa himself

SPECIAL SEAT
 FOR ANTONIO

Antonio wasn't as big as a pint of peanuts but he pushed a rather grimy hand with a half dollar up to the ticket window and asked for "one for Sousa," with all the aplomb of a man of affairs. He was the ty- pica1 ncwsboy, a bundle of Times un- der his arm and it was evident that he had gained his air of assurance from close observation Of the men

This Sunday evening, the Plaza theatre, which, during the summer has been redecorated and re-uphol- stered, will throw open its doors to begin the Fall and Winter season. William Farnum in an adaptation of Clyde c. Westovers famous story, "The ScuttIers,'' has been booked as the opening attraction starting Sum day. William Farnum is a great favorite in Bridgeport and his latest play is not only attractive from story point of view, but the scenes at sea are both thrilling and beauti-

Boston. Nov. 18.-Harvard and Yale
universities will complete their 1921
football season in the stadium here to-
morrow afternoon when the two YER
sity elevens meet in their 40th grid
iron battle since the inception of the
series in 1875. On the eve of the con-
test the outcome is a subject OF much
discussion and wide difference OF
opinion among both the followers OF
the two Institutions and football in
general. While the Ellis have trifle
of the edge in the matter of favorlt-
ism 1t Is the concensus OF opinion
among the close observers of the game
that there is really little choice in the
chances of the Blue and the Crimson.
Yaie has made an impressive show
ing this season in the role of loot
ball comeback while Harvard, with an
unusually trying schedule, has gone
down to defeat twice. Early fall re-
suits, however, must be discarded, to
some extent, in view of the fact that
both teams have been specially pointed
for this the final and most important
struggle of the schedule. Special
plays. players and series of substi-
tutes will be flung into tomorrow's
game with an abandon not possible In
the earlier battles of the autumn.
AS a result the outcome of the con-
test Is likely to hinge upon the breaks
of the play. the physical condition OF
the first string men, the correctness OF
tactics adopted by the two team gem
erals and other angles and opportuni-
ties which cannot be guaged In ad-
vance. The only possible line of com
parison is that which concerns the
ability and characteristics of the per-
sonnel composing the elevens.
In this respect Yale Is undoubtedly
in q stronger position than in several
years. The Ellis football squad Is COM
posed of strong. fast, alert and brainy
players possessing keen football in
stinct. This has been demonstrated
repeatedly this fall. Combined with
these desirable football traits the
team, as a whole. has been we'll
coached in both the fundamentals and
defense IL based upon the requirements
of modern football and it is doubtful
II a stronger or better balanced Yale
eleven has faced the Crimson in some
seasons.
Harvard's team Is the same type of
Cambridge football machine that has
scored so effectively In recent years
but 1t Is a moot question as to whether
the players, as individuals, quite reach
the high standard in physical power
and playing skill. obtained by those of
the past few seasons. Tho lessons
learned in the defeats administered by
both Centre college and Princeton
have been well absorbed and 1t is GER
tain that when the team enters the
game against Yale it will be a formid-
able combination. The Blue will face
a machine well versed in all forms of
direct offense, the concealed ball play
and tho long and short overhead at
tack. In fact 1t is not unlikely that

BILLIARD HIGH RUN
MADE BY COCHRANE

Chicago. ILL.,, Nov. 1S.-All records
In 1872 balkline billiards were broken
he y today in the worlds champion
ship games by Welker Cochrane of
San Francisco when he ran out 400
points in 5 innings and in the fourth
inning ran 3S4 in his match with
George Sutton of Chicago. Sutton
amassed only 81 points.
Cochrane's performance sets a new
high run mark. In 1915, Willie
Hoppe worlds champion. made a run
of 307. At that time he was playing
Cochrane in a handicap match 500 to
800. and the final score was 500 to 1S.
That run gave Hoppe an average of
S3 1-3 exceeded only by an average OF
100 made by George Sutton many
years ago.
The highest run in balk line cham
pionship play made previous to today
was 265 made by Cochrane two years
ago.
Last year Ora Morningstar of San
Diego ran 272 in the preliminary
competition of the national tourna-
ment at San Francisco.
The run of 3s4 and the consequent
five innings gives Cochrane the high
average of the present tournament
so.
Hoppe two years ago played a game
out with an average of SS and sutton
has losing average of better than b9.
Cont played the most sensational
game OF the tournament and left the
Belgian no chance to do any high
counting after the first inning.
Willie Hoppe defeated Ora Morn
