Breed Theatre

Perhaps you recall reading Kenneth Harris story Junk in the Saturday Evening Post. It was one of the great est stories of the year; and at the same time story ideally suited for motion pictures. Every picture concern sought the screen rights, and Metro won out. The picture was made under the title Of ''The Idle Rich" with Bert Lytell as the star and will be shown at the Breed the atre as the feature attraction today and Saturday. It is positively the best thing that Bert Lytell has done since Right of Way"

Rome, May 15.-Thousands upon
thousands of pilgrims from every
Catholic country in the world are en-
route to Rome today for the formal
opening, May "a, Of the Twenty-sixth
International Eucharistic congress.
The congress, which will last from
May "a to 20, will, according to high
est Vatican authorities, be one of
the greatest historical events in the
modern history of the church and will
be marked by another open manifes-
tation on the part of Pope Plus XII.
of his spirit of conciliation towards
Italy and of his desire to see a recon-
ciliation on a basis that will end the
self-imposed Imprisonment of the
Popes in the Vatican since 1870.
Following the action Of Pope Plus
in breaking down these traditions by
blessing the people in st. Peters
church, both after his election and
his coronation, he has made it known
that at the close of the coming con-
gress, with Rome filled with the
greatest international gathering of
pilgrimages which the Eternal City
has ever seen, he will again give pub
lie evidence of his desire to see an
example of worldwide pacifcation
given by pacifcation between the
Vatican and the Quirinal.
The precise form in which this
manifestation will be given has not

BRITISH POLO PLAYERS
PREPARE FOR INVASION
(By United PresS)

London, May 15.-The visit of the
Argentine polo team has concen-
trated the attention of British horse
men on Argentine-bred ponies, es-
pecially in view Of the present due-to-
the-war shortage of really good ami
mails. 1t is conceded that the British
players chief handicap against the
Americans last year was the small
number of mature and thoroughly
trained ponies at their disposal, for
during the war the Americans had
bought up all the best ponies.
This point has been emphasized by
the Duke of Westminster, one OF
England's leading polo enthusiasts.
Westminster decided to restock his
polo stables from the Argentine and
United States, and he induced Lieut.
Col. E. Brown of the Dragon Guards
to visit South America in quest Of
real ponies. Colonel Brown recent
ly brought back from the Argentine
string Of forty native-bred ponies.
He also secured some animals in the
United States, but the majority of
his purchases came from the Argen-
tine.
1t is generally accepted that the
Duke will place his entire stud at the
disposal of the challenging English
team which will visit the United
States next year. In fact, he will
quite likely take the team out him.

team for this season.
