JACK HOLT AT GALAx IN
 1.-THE CALL OF THE NORTUe

There will always be a demand for the red -blooded, outdoor stories of love and adventure In the north. With Jack Holt in a featured role. his first star performance, the Galax offers
 The Call of the North" a beautiful ana dramatic screen version of one of the greatest stage successes of this type.
 Naturally, as the picture is pro- oueed on the screen it is far more realistic than on the stage, fuller Of action and mounting interest. For the screen is essentially the medium for the production of outdoor stories haVlng as its stage the great out doors, the lakes, woods and noun talns that form settings by the divine hand, In story like 'The Call of the North the beauty of the woods ana mountains play great part in the entertainment, and this is golden summer time instead of the usual frozen vistas
 D Ile story that underlies The Call 9sI the North Is of the half romantic ana half adventurous kind The northern picture usually carries a ilhe sentiment and this one particu- larly so' The son of man unjustly sentenced to go on the journey of death" by a harsh factor, erows to Hanhood with the determination to aVenge his father. Then as has hap pened from time beginning two peo- Die Tall in love who never should nave thought of such thing. the son of the executed man and the daueh- ter of the cruel factor. The compli- cations and the drama of such a sit uation can be imagined.
 Jack Holt lives up to his oppor- tuhitles In his first stellar role. His splendid physique and commanding personality are especially suited to a picture of the north. Madge Bellamv plays the feminine lead.

ENTRIES FOR ATHLETIC
 CLUBS ANNUAL CROSS
 COUNTRY EVENT CLOSE

tertalnment before the race has got ten very far under way
 Alabama Entered
 Alabama, while not being consid- cred in the class with the Atlanta Athletic club or the Aggies, may still be counted on to do a whole lot to- ward making the race interesting for the winner. The Crimsons are de- pending largely on Irons, the youth full racer, who has been attracting so much attention down that way this year. However, this boy is not the only boy on the 'Bama team that Is expected to do well, as both Cos ton and Kirby should place well up with the leaders.
 Getting closer to home, 1t might be said that Ellsworth Richter is run ming in great style these days and will probably be responsible for some lively competition himself. Richter has been working hard ever since the racing season began, and he has acquired a smooth pace that should make the best of them work hard. Richter won before, and he is anx- ious to repeat, so the visiting run neFs had better keep an eye on their pird If they want to do anything worth mentioning in the big race.

Almost 50 Runners Are En- tered in Local Clubs Eleventh Annual Road. Race Through City To- morrow

Entries for the B. A. c. road race which will be run tomorrow, regard less of the weather, closed yesterday with total of 47 entries, which is the largest number ever entered in the B. A. c. race. These entries come from seven different organizations over the south, and there are three unattached men entered. With en- tries from Alabama, Mississippi. Georgia and Tennessee, this race should come pretty near to deciding the southeastern championship, even though 1t is not billed as such by the race officials. The race Saturday will start at o'clock.
 AEgies FaVorite
 The A. and M. team is doped to win the race, but still there will be some strong competition coming from places where 1t is not being locked for very much. A. and Ms strongest competitor for the race is generally being thought of as the Atlanta Athletic club, but. aside from this team, there should be some strong competition from Tech and Alabama, to say nothing of the local boys with the B. A. c.
 Tech Has Strong Team
 The Georgia Tech team has not been showing such amazing speed as yet this year, but just the same they have strong team and have one or two men on 1t who are expected to be right up on the winners heels, while none of the Tech aggregation is expected to be very far in the rear. Dawes and Cotton are the two big stars of the Tech team. both of them being veterans with the Georgians. Dawes established great record for himself last year by placing well up in the front in every race that he was in. However. he was not alone in, making the Tech team known, as his teammate, Cotton, also did some great work last season. Both of these men are said to be in good con dition and running in great form this year. and they should furnish the other runners with some lively en-

"WHAT's A WIFE WORTHf-
 AT FIVE POINTS THEATRE

Would a woman give her baby to save another woman's life?
 This is one of the vital questions dealing with life that is answered in Christy Cabanne's human document. Whats a Wife Worth?" written and produced for Robertson-C by this master of screencraft and which opens at the Five Points theatre to- day.
 Through all the ages there has been no power greater than the power of mother love, and the thought of a mother giving up her child to save another woman, espe- cially when the other woman has wronged her, might seem utterly inn probable.
 Yet conditions have been known to arise in life that have influenced mo- | ble women to make even this sacri- l flee. Death has long been known as the supreme sacrifice, but what i

Panther Team Out
 of Big Road Race

Professor Moore of Birmingham Southern college announced at the last minute that the Panther team would not compete in the road race tomorrow. Professor Moore said that one of the reasons Tor withdrawing the Birmingham Southern entries was that the team is out of shane with some of their most dependable on the sick list.
 The Hilltoppers were not generally being figured on as having a chance as team to land the race, but many people were spotting Buddy" De- Yampert good chance of winning the race, and Birmingham Southern supporters are lamenting the fsict that this star is not being allowed to show his wares in the presence of other stars
 pr. Snavely, president of the col- lege, was in favor of the race, but Professor Moore thought that 1t would be too much of an undertak- ing for the Panther runners in their present condition.

LOEW PRESENTS GOOD BILL
 LAST HALF OF WEEK

One of the best vaudeville bills seen at Loew's in a long while IS being presented the last half Of tfiS week. The house was filled by Shriners. and each act was enthu- siastically received.
 To pick a headliner would be hard to do. but to Margaret Osborn and company belong the honor of pre- senting real novelty dancing act Miss Osborn wore one of the most daring costumes seen on the local stage and the entire act piyoted around her and her personality. This act closed the bill.
 J. Blondy and sister opened the bill with an acrobatic offering some- what out of the ordinary "opener act" Biondy is good jumper and executes some difficult tricks.
 Tn the next act Jennings and Melba presented a skit. "The Hat Shop which brought them a home run" Jennings is very funny and is well supported by his partner, Miss Melba. The deluge of hats in the end brought them extended applause.
 The act of Tom Davis and com pany, "The Persuaders." is one out of the ordinary, and it was appre- ciated, too. This act has much of Inc regular business of like acts, but it carries a kick and a real surprise in the end.a
 As applause-g -getters, Harry Pearce and Burne Dunn get the "cut glass mop" This act is entirely foolish. and should be labeled as such.

BULLDOG CAGE SQUAD LOOKING
 GOOD THIS YEAR
Keen Competition Developing for Various Positions on
 Howard Quintet

The Howard basketball team has started practice and with the number of good men out for the team 1t looks like this years quintet should be one of the best that has ever represented the Bulldogs. The team has only been working for two or three days, and there are so many start predicting yet just exactly who ought to play. However, the most outstanding men trying for the team have already begun to stage indi- vidual battles for the team, and it is fairly safe to say who the scrap for the different positions is be- tween.
 There is one man out for the team who just can't help but be in the lineup, and he is "Boilermaker" All ford, the captain of the team. Even if he wasn't captain, he would be sure of a place on account of the stuff he is already beginning to show and on account of his work in the past. It is still uncertain as to whether or not Afford will be used at center or guard. but he is sure to be used at one of them. He will probably play guard. as Toby Stubbs is looking like the very man for the place at center. Stubbs has had lots of experience and, with his speed and all around ability he should make the Bulldogs mighty good center.
 At the Forwards
 Pat Shores and "Rowdy" Crews are looking good for the forwards. Shores has, had most of his experience at center but he knows how to play forward in fine style, and he should make the Bulldogs good player. "Rowdy" Crews has played with the Bulldogs before and from the way he has started it looks as though ne should perform even better than he did in the past for Howard.
 Shorty Webb of last years team las not reported for practice yet. ow- ing to a trip with the Glee club, but when Shorty gets through giving his voice. a work out and comes back with the team, he should make things interesting for all aspirants for the forward positions. Aside from these men. Sudduth and Walker should also make strong bids for place at one of the forwards.
 Guards Looking Good
 The guards this year should be the best that Howard has ever had, IS there are more good men out for the place this year than there has ever been before. Afford and Gaylord are the last years guards, and both Of them are in good shape. and are look ing like they are in for another DIE year. Aside from these men. Ste

Jack Baxley and Lillian Porter scored decided hit in the Lyric of fering for the last half of the week in their presentation of a sketch en- titled "Neighbors," in which MT. Bax- ley took the character of an aged, white-haired man and Miss Porter displayed her vivacity in charming manner as his next-door neighbor.
 The sketch was filled with humor with a dispersion of a few lines of heart and human interest.
 Helen Pingree and Leo Haynes off, fered an amusing and entertaining skit entitled Say It With Flowers" which brought forth several ovations from the audience.
 Jack Laxey and Celie o'Connor pre- sented a number of new song hits interspersed with several new dance steps that kept the audience in d good humor throughout their act.
 Billy Knight and his roosters of fered decidedly new form of en- tertainment that scored a hit.
 LaVine and Walters closed the pro- gram with an unusual offering of hand-balancing stunts that had a de- cidedly novel feature. As an added bit of humor, Jack I4axey and Leo Haynes entered during the course of the sketch and offered a pantomime of the hand balancing that scored round after round of applause and started hilarious laughter that only subsided upon the resumption of the regular act, when the two gymnasts offered evera1 additional difficult feats.
