ring. This bout will be eight rounds
long, and the scene Of action will
be the Ice Palace. The frozen edi-
fee holds over 1000.
Under the, agreement the boys will
fight at catch weights. This doesn't
mean that the champion will wad-
die into the ring. Simply that he
will not be compelled to infiict un-
necessary punishment upon himself
to reduce to the limit. This reduc-
ton will come around when a gor-

Leonard hasn't boxed since last

Friedman has been In action right

May MeAvoy In .MsrsI..-

When May McAvoy. the beautiful
Young Eirl-star of the photoplay.
made her first screen appearance
before Washington audiences sew
eral months ago IN the perturbation
OF Sir J. NJ. Barrie's Scotch fantasy.
Sentimental Tommy" IL was prac-
tically assured that Miss McAyoy's
return to an even more imposing
role was merely a question of time.
Miss McAvoy made good that assur-
ance at Loew's Palace Theater yes-
terday. where she began a weeks
screen engagement in MORALS" the
photoplay version of William ].
Locke's famous novel, The Morals
OF Marcus Ordeyne." in which she
Is supported by William p. Carleton
and one of the best casts seen this
season. Mis- sMcAvoy's screen re-
appearance was greeted with en-
thusiasm by yesterdays audiences
at the Palace and, to all appear
ances. this really remarkable beauty
has permanently established herself
as screen star of the first mag
nitude.
Unusual credit must be accorded
to Miss McAvoy for the simple res.
son that In half year she has por-
trayed two Of literature's most
lovable and beguiling heroines,
Barrie's ,"Grizel" and william r
Locke's ''Carlotta,' and portrayed
them both. with a superlatiye art
and understanding. Morals" Miss
McAvoy's latest screen vehicle, rs
one OF the most wholly satisfying
productions the silver sheet has az
forded in many a day. Julia Craw-
ford Ivers has adapted Locke's In
lmitable story of the screen, while
William d. Taylor, the producer of
Sentimental Tommy" has trans
ferred IL to celluloid.
Miss McAvoy is thrillingly beau
tiful in every scene. She appears
In the role of little harem beauty,
taught to believe that marriage is
the career of every girl, who is
transported, at the age OF IT. into
the upper, levels OF British society
as the ward of staid and socially
impacable English bachelor. This
transition is accomplished through
the girls escape from the harem
and her adoption by the bachelor.
The b. chelor, Sir Marcus Or
deyne. Ia $ her home out of sheer
pity and places her in the care OF
his housekeeper but her innocence
and total ignorance OF Anglo Saxon
conventions lead to o maze of en-
plications that utterly upset the
well-ordered life of Sir Marcus. The
manner in which the acquaintance
leads to love and eventually TO
their marriage makes one of the
most fascinating of screen stories,
which was greeted with enthusiasm
by yesterdays audiences at the
Palace. The management Of the
theater has supplemented the pro-
duction with an unsuallv fine ar
ray Of added screen and musical
attractions, including Blister Kea-
ton, the inimitable film comedian.
