CROWLEY, La, March 9.-The Indians
were sent through only one practice today
and it was a morning affair. The hard
workouts of the day previous convinced
Manager Hendricks that another let
down was due and he declared today q
half holiday with the proviso that turn
around the fair grounds hak-mile track
would be taken.
The "proviso" part Of his suggestion
developed into an argument about run
ming ability and as a result an open race
on the track was inserted into the day S
program. A reward was hung up by
Manager hendricks and all the former
$50 men Immediately tuned up for ac-
ton. AS the time for the race drew near
Ralph SINNERS and Sterling Stryker
were made favorites, but there were in
dicatiOns Of a dark horse showing and
interest In the event spread among the
tOwnspeOple.
Getting back to actual baseball, the in
field went through fierce and amazing
practice this morning with GOsSett catch
Ing, Attreau at first base, Sticking at sec
ond, Schneider at short and Baird at
third. Manager Hendricks clOuted the
ball in all directions, but the members
of the inner-works grabbed almost every
thing OF TO perfection. Rookie Attreau
fitted in with few flaws showing and the
bleacherites handed out plentiful ap
plause.

Jackie Coogan, one Of the greatest

WILLIAM FARNUM IN Z
IL NEW FOX PHOTODRAMA,

Those who love fine dramatic work,
the best that the screen Affords Will
be pleased to know that William Far
mum will open at the Rex theater to-
day in a play Of domestic life called
"His Greatest Sacrifice" = -|
This story, based on modern life,
shows that there cannot be two mas
tiers in the house. It teaches that
wife cannot gain the greatest happl.
ness in life by sacrificing the love OF
her husband and her child for the
plaudits of the theater-going public.
When his wife starts out on her ca
reer her husband has just begun to
win success as writer. But the vile
ignores this; in her selfish ambition
she cuts loose from her husband and
CHILD. She wins fame, but in the end
she longs for what she had Wilfully
cast away---the love of these two.
"His Greatest Sacrifice is a Will
liam Fox production. 1t was direct
ed jby ]. Gordon Edwards, who has
made some big pictures for William
Fox, including CLEOPATRA" and Sa-
lone" Ellis Greatest Sacrifice" IS
