The Pastime theater screened
Eugene O'Brien in "Is Life Worth

albuquerque yesterday. The pict-
ure will continue as the attraction
at the same theater for two more
days.
Mr.. O'Brien, who has been re-

throughout the country, has many
friends in this city who will be In

high standard of excellence which
he has set for himself in previous
productions which he has made
for the Selznick organization.
The story, by George Weston,

STAGING CLOSE
RACE FOR LEAD
(By The Associated Press.)

New York, Aug. 29.--Major
pennant races approach the Sep
tember stretch with the Pittsburgh
National leaders wavering badly
as New York increases its speed,
while the Cleveland and New
York Americans continue neck and
neck. The Pirates lead the Giants
by two and half games and the
Indians increased their lead to
one and half games by winning
today while the Yankees lost.
The feature of the New York
National in cutting down Pitts
burgh's lead by winning five
straight contests from the Pirates
was surpassed by St, Louis in
taking six straight from Boston
and decreasing the Braves ad-
vantage over them for third place
to almost one game. The Cardinals
have won eight consecutive games.
Philadelphia had its first winning
week since May. Brooklyn Will
find it difficult to get back into
the first division. Chicago and
Cincinnati are battling well, but
lack consistent pitching.
In the American league, Man
ager Speaker, of Cleveland, is
iockeying with his pitchers to
good effect. New York seems to
have recovered its stride.
The Washington moundsmen are
ineffective and the heavy hitting
of the st. Louis Browns may carry
them into third place. The Boston
and Detroit pitchers are not do
ing well although both clubs had
q winning balance last week.
Chicago and Philadelphia also
lack pitching strength.

league including games of August

INDIAN GIRL SAVES
HERO FROM HANGING IN
"WEST OF RIO GRANDE'

People who attend the Pastime
theater today to see "West of the
Rio Grande," stirring Bert Lubin
photoplay, which Is holding the
screen there, will witness dra-
matte rescue from hanging with
an Indian girl in the role Of the
good Samaritan.
The hero had previously come to
the girls rescue by making a dar-
ing swing across a river to battle
with her assailant. He later be-
comes mixed up with a band OF
rustlers whom he has led into a
trap. He is mistaken for one OF
them and is about to be hanged
when the Indian girl arrives on the
scene and effects his release.

tense with dramatic situations and
many thrills. 1t was filmed in a
little forgotten Texas village on
the border of Mexico. under direc-
ton of Robin H. Townley and con-
tains many beautiful scenic effects.
Allene Ray, pronounced the
most beautiful girl among fifty
thousand contestants for the Fame
and Fortune Beauty Contest prize,
is starred in this fast moving
drama.

gur-eI marries him. He is too
subtle a villain for that and also
there isn't any old homestead in
the play. He gets the girl, played
by the ever pleasing Doris Rankin,
by exercising his talent for for
gerry.
He sends a letter to her lover
signed by her that she never wants
to see him again. He sends one TO
her signed by the lover to the effect
that the scandal which has been
limited at in her family has made
their contemplated marriage in1-
possible. Then he catches the girl
on the rebound.
1t Is melodrama but It Is the hest
entertainment Barrymore has ever
offered on the screen. He begins,
his villainy by forging the girls
name on his dance program SO that
he can claim more than she has
been willing to offer. Then he at
tempts to save her father by an
other forgery and gets caught and
jbarters away twenty years of
forgery to a1criminal gang to keep
from going to Jail.
But Barrymore is altogether too
human to remain the hardened
villain to the end and he rights
everything before the final scene.
The story is as gripping as any
melodrama that has ever been pro-
duced but 1t lacks the garish in
congruities of most of them.
For one desiring the highest
form of emotional entertainment
"Jim, the Penman" provides the
opportunity.

SANTA 4 f CAME
BY 14-5 SCORE

The American legion suffered a
defeat by a score Of IA to 5 yester-
day afternoon when they tangled
bats with the Lopez men on the
latter's home grounds at Santa Fe.
Santa Fe put the game in their
bat-bags in the first inning by
putting five runs in the savings ac-
count. They followed up In the
third with two more runs, and got
one run in the fifth and sixth in
nings, before the legion men got
onto their feet following the In
itial knock-down.
In the sixth inning the legion
made an attempt to stay In the
game by putting away two runs, but
Santa Fe was not satisfied with
halfway measures, and salted
down five more runs in the seventh.
The legion got its other three runs
in the eighth.
"Grasshopper' Weiss. of Santa
Fe, disproved the theory about
pitchers and batting averages by
knocking out two homo runs. and
Davv also got a homer.

Pitching Soon Will Become
Lost Art, MOurns Carl Mays

Carl Mays of the Yankees. sub
marine star OF the pitchers of the
American league, declares that
pitching in this day is matter Of
luck and is rapidly becoming lost
art. Mays asserts that it is almost
impossible to curve the new ball
because it contains too much rub
Der, and trying to curve it is just
Hike trying to curve a rock or a bit
Of cement. 1t is not until the ball
has been in use for some little
time that the pitchers are able to
make 1t perform real stunts and
then the umpires grab 1t and sub
ject it to a minute examination. If
there is even a superficial scratch
on the leather the umpires throw
it out of the game.
Pitching is the toughest game
In the world right now" said Mays,
"and the new ball Is the cause oft
all The pitchers can't get their
curves to break until the ball is
soiled from use, and just at that
time the umpires invariably throw
it out Of the game. 1t has come to
a point now where the pitchers
throw their fast ball and hope for
the best. If 1t isn't the fast ball,
it's change of pace, but l think
that few pitchers will claim that
they are getting away with their
curve. Some pitchers think that
the smooth seam on this new ball
is the cause OF it. but l think that
the way the ball is made is respon-
sible.
Just look in both leagues at the
way hitting has Increased in the
last year. There was little Ownie
Bush who is to be cast adrift by
the Tigers after fourteen years of
service. Bush never was a hitter,
yet this season he scared close to
the 800 mark. Johnny Tobin was
never the dangerous hitter that he
is now. George Cutshaw of the
Pittsburgh club is hitting away
over his head, and these are Just q
few instances. I'll tell you how 1t
is working out. Just watch the
number of balls that the batters
are hitting down near the handle
of the club and dropping over the
infield for base hits. That will be
the top off for any one who gets
down and thinks about it.
mot very long ago on the Polo
grounds Roger Peckinpaugh, the
most notorious left field hitter in
the American league, tried to slice
a ball into right field on the hit
ana run. He only chopped at the
ball, yet he got a home run. Tillie
Walker got a homer off me in
Philadelphia last week that was
shot with luck. He hit liner. and
