Elsie Ferguson's Latest
Picture Is Thrill Packed

Packed with thrills from start to
finish, Elsie Ferguson's latest pic
ture, Lady Roses Daughter" which
will be shown at the Magic City The
ater next Saturday, March 5, is
meeting with enormous success
throughout the country. Finely pro-
duced by Hugh Ford fer. Paramount
release and superbly acted, this is
one of the most charming photoplays
of Miss Ferguson's repertoire this
season.
The story is not only dramatic, but
it exerts a powerful heart appeal.
The theme deals with the love affair
of an English girl who is born out of
wedlock, but who finds love and hap
piness in the end. Supported by a
cast headed by such players as David
Powell, Holmes E. Herbert, Frank
Lossee, Warren Cook and Ida Water
man, the picture is admittedly one of
unusual interest to movie fans.

BETTER BRING YOUR
'LICKER" HOME NOW

Heretofore the prohibition regu-
lations authorized the possession of
liquors for beverage purposes only in
the private dwelling of the owner of
the liquor. The department has now
ruled that if you have any liquors
lawfully acquired prior to Jan. II,
1920, you can possess it in your pri-
vate dwelling, or in a place of stor-
age. This does not apply 10 liquors
held in bond and represented by
warehouse certificates. Such liquors
cannot be withdrawn for beverage
purposes. If any liquors are pos
sessed at any place other than ones
private dwelling, the owner of such
liquors must report the kinds and
quantities of each kind to the federal
prohibition director, Custom House,
New Orleans, La. The report must
be made before March 10, 1921, and
on a form which will be furnished on
request of the director.
It will require a permit to move
liquors from place of storage to the
owners dwelling, or from the dwell
ing to a place of storage. Applica-
tions for such permits should be
made to Jess Johnson, federal prohi-
ton director, eli Custom House,

HAYAKAWA FILM is
AN ARTISTIC TREAT

"An Arabian Knight" the Robert
son-Cole Special, with Sessue Haya-
kawa in the stellar role, which comes
to the Garden Theater tomorrow
friday night, is an artistic treat.
Rarely indeed do lovers of scenic
beauty in pictures have the oppor-
tunity to revel in the flash of color
and the voluptuous atmosphere of the
Levant characteristic of An Arabian
Knight"
Scene after scene, one more beau
tiful than the other, unfold them
selves with startling rapidity in this
original and novel; Hayakawa We
hicle. From the opening, when the
silent spaces of the Egyptian desert
are barred to view with the solemn
and mysterious pyramids outlined
sharly against the sky, until the final
fade-out, the picture charms because
of its sheer artistry of composition.
And what makes it still more de-
lightful is the intriguing character of
Mr.. Hayakawa's role. Cast as Ahmed,
the good-netured, lazy son of Cairo
Bedouin, he is forever engaging in
pranks which keep his neighbors
amused and peeVed IN turn. he meets
with his greatest adventure, however,
when Cordelia Darwin, the sister of
an American millionaire interested in
Egyptology, decides that he is the re-
incarnation of her soul mate of 1000
years ago.
Ahmed is appointed butler of the
Americans household and then, the
f11n-and consi6ara HE traOedv. foo
begins. How Ahmed foils a bastard
~ plot to kidnap the beautiful ward
Of the millionaire, and battles single
handed against a band of half-crazed
hasheesh addicts makes a whirlwind
finish which might be melodramatic
were it not so breathlessly interest
ing.
"An Arabian Knight" as a Haya-
kawa vehicle furnishes a, very pleas
ant evenings entertainment.

SNAPSHOTS OF
GEORGE SISTERS
1920 RECORD

He led both major leagues
with the imposing batting aver
age of .4O7.
He made 257 safe hits-a
record performance.
He hit for a total of 500
bases, another record perform
ance.
He was first in many things,
including times at bat.
In number of two base hits
he was second only to Iris
Speaker.
In number of three-base hits
he was second only to Joe jack
son.
In number of home runs he
was second only to Babe Ruth.
In number of stolen bases he
was second only to Sam Rice.
In runs scored he was second
only to Babe Ruth.
In runs driven in he was sec
ond only to Babe Ruth.
He was at least second best
in almost every department of
play where he did not actually
lead, and his all-round record
has not been equalled since the
days when Ty Cobb was in his
prime.

an infielder and, of course, Ty with
all his ambition was never pitcher.
Babe Ruth is a greater slugger, but
Babe does not shine either in the
outfield or on the base paths, though
himself a remarkable pitcher. Other
players have excelled Sisler in GER
tain departments and still do, but we
know Of no one who at present can
be compared with his sheer versa
tility and all-round talent.
The baseball star is commonly al
lowed a certain latitude covered by
the dubious epithet temperament. I"
Most stars need this latitude to cover
their angularities of conduct. Babe
Ruth is gruff and Unaccommodating.
Ty Cobb is high strung with rather
touchy temper. iris Speaker is in
clined to be moody and taciturn.
Eddie Collins is cold and distant. But
George Sisler, younger than any of
these, save Babe Ruth, used to the
limelight from his earliest years, has
remained entirely unspoiled by the
profuse honors which have been
heaped upon him or by his own truly
remarkable exploits and he is today
as simple, straightforward and unaf-
fected as the youngest recruit in or
ganized baseball.
In many respects Sisters baseball
career reads like a romance. His
present manager, Lee Foil, was the
man who first brought Sisler to the
notice Of prominent baseball people
as find. His present boss, Bob
Qrinn, engineered his signing of a
professional baseball contract and

TIL. greatest baseball player in the
world, George Sisler, arrived in Be-
galusa Tuesday and on Wednesday
was at practice, enthusiastic over the
grounds an dconveniences arranged
here for the Browns. With such ideal
training conditions, Mr.. Sisler be-
lieves that his record of last year will
not compare with the one he intends
to make this season. Readers of The
Enterprise will be interest in the fol-
lowing story Of Sisler and his won
derful playing.
George Sisler was the most bril-
liant player of 1920. His dazzling
exploits dominate the records as those
of Ty Cobb used to. In batting he
was easily first with the phenomenal
average of .407. In run scoring he
tied for first place with iris Speaker
at 1877 tallies. In stolen bases he was
second only to Sam Rice, the flying
mercury of the Washington Senators.
In number Of runs driven in, he tied
at second place with his teammate
jacobson at 1872 tallies, acknowledge
ing no superior but Babe Ruth. Nor
was his wonderful batting record in
any sense a fluke, for Sisler took part
in the full schedule of 154 games and
appeared at bat more than any other
PLAYER, 631 times. In the number of
his hits, he not only exceeded all COM
petitoHs, but broke the previous
American League record with grand
total Of 257 safe hits. What is more,
ne led all competitors in number OF
total bases, even Babe Ruth with his
"a home runs being forced to take
"a back seat. Just one short of an
even 400, Sisler piled up grand to-
tai of 399 bases, a record unmatched
in modern baseball. In two-base hits
he was second only to Speaker. In
-Ehree-base hits he was second only
to Joe Jackson. In home runs he was
second only to Babe Ruth. Such a
record is an all-round masterpiece
whose like may not be seen again for
many years.
From his youth up veritable gale
of good fortune has blown George
Sisler on his way. While he was still
a school boy in an obscure Ohio town,
prominent baseball men had their eye
on him. While he was a college un-
der-graduate big league clubs were
eager to sign him. His entry into
major league baseball nearly precip-
itated a war of the magnates and
was remotely responsible for the
overthrow of the National Commits
sion. His career with the St. Louis
Browns has been a continuous tri-
umph, always on the upward scale,
eliminating in the grand climax of
the season just closed. Favored by
every possible talent, fleet of foot as
an arrow, wonderful fielder, phe-
nOmenal hitter, and when so minded,
a brilliant pitcher, Sisler is one of the
greatest all-round players, if not the
very greatest, that baseball has ever
produced.
This is high praise and yet the
faces deserve it. In purely offensive
departments of play, Sisler has not
yet equalled Ty Cobb, though during
the past season he fell little short of
the Georgian at his best. In defense,
however, Sisler is a better natural
fielder than Cobb. He is furthermore
Bogalusa enterprise and American. (Bogalusa, La.) 1918-19??, 1921-03-03

And lastly, though Sisler is not otter
looked upon in that light, both are
sluggers whose total of extra bases
finds no close parallel elsewhere.
There, perhaps, che resemblance
ends, but it is really quite striking as
far as it goes.
Sisler recently refused the man
agership of his club. He did so after
mature deliberation. The man who
perhaps more strongly than any other
championed his candidacy was Ban
Johnson, president of the American
League. II had a conversation with
Sisler some time ago." says Mr..
johnson, "and l was greatly i'm
pressed with his apparent good sense
and sound judgment. It seemed to
me he would be an ideal club leader,
though / can understand why he
should decline that honor at this par
ticular time, and urged his candidacy
for the position. Sisler, in my judg-
ment, is one of the very greatest
players the American League has
ever produced. / am glad that he
wears an American League uniform,
for he is a distinct credit to his pro-
fession in every particular. It seems
impossible to improve upon such a
record as his for last year, and yet,
I hope he does this. Surely if he can
not do it, no one can,
This estimate of Ban Johnson's
might well be the opinion of all other
weH-informed baseball people. 1t is
safe to say that among an army of
friends, Sisler numbers not a single
enemy. And if there is a player now
in uniform who r2n surpass his rec
ord of 1920, that player is George
Sisler himself.-Baseball Magazine
