GRAND THEATRE TODAY

A new star has been placed in
the film armament by William Fox
He is Harold Goodwin, an eighteen
year-old actor who, by dint of hard
work has risen to such heights and
given such promise that Mr.. Fox de-
cided to place him as an entertainer
wherever Fox films are shown.
Harold will be seen at the Grand
Theatre today in modern version of
Charles Dickens great story "Oliver
Twist, Jr." Harold, according to
reports, has been lucky in having
this story picked for him because
Oliver Twist is a type that fits him
admirably. Lovers of Dickens will
be particularly interested in "Oliver
Twist, Jr.," because it follows the
book closely.
Goodwin was born in Peoria, ILL.,,
is six feet one inch and weighs 140

at the age of twelve, when he went
with other boys and girls to appear in
mob scene and received as remun-
Grafton so cents.

FIRST DEFEAT BY

furious game of baseball by a score
of II to 3, thus revenging themselves
of the defeat which they suffered at

ever, that some of the best players
on the Bankers team were out of the
game thus weakening their lineup.
Bush, pitching for the Bankers,
weakened in the sixth and was re-

form and kept the money changers
in the hole during most of the game.

who got hurt early in the game.
