MOVI IFS

Mary Pickford in Through the Back Door" will play a return date this eve ming only. This is one of the best comedy dramas Mary has produced and you sure will enjoy it. Tomor- row evening the gigantic play "The Sheik" will be on the screen.
 "The Sheik," which opens at the Empress Theater tomorrow evening is probably the most talked-about pie ture before the American public today.
 The feature players in "The Sheik' are Agnes Ayres and Rudolph Valen-
 "The Sheik" is a flaming romance of desert love; flinging away the trap pings of civilization; leaving the 'lady" only a woman, the gentleman" only a man.
 It is the tale of a lawless Arab chief who loved an English beauty and took her. Stormed her caravan carried her off to his tent-lost her fought for her-won her, heart and soul.
 A romance all colored with barbaric splendor. Swift and free as gallop- ing Bedouin. Racing through scenes that thrill with their beauty and dar- ing.
 It is picture you will want to see a picture you must see.

New York, Feb. 15.-Benny Leon
ard VS.. Lew Tender? Sure, but
when? Well, it isn't dead sure just
now, when. According to a story
that leaked out today it will be in
the beautiful month of May and the
place will be the great arena over
in Jersey City which covers what
is known as Boyle's 30 acres. The
arrangement has not reached the
ballyhoo stage Just yet, but it may
be set down as certain that Richard,
Gibson and company are working
on the proposition. 1t may not
prove to be the battle OF the cen
tury, but it will be big enough to
make more money for Messrs Leon
ard and Tender than they ever
cleaned up in a bunch of fights.
The dope is that no indoor place
is big enough to hold the crowd
that would gather to witness this
battle. AS a matter of fact, if the
Madison Square Garden could have
been sold out for the Leonard-Kan-
sas battle it would not begin to &C
commodate even the vanguard of
those who would dig down in their
pockets to see Benny and Lew in
action. There is a feeling that Ben
ny has slipped back, just a little,
while Tender is appraised as haY-
ing come along in the past two
years. Again it is now established
that while Benny was training for
the Tender fight last fall he got

to smooth over the difficulties fails
ed. But yesterday Leo got in touch
with the legion promoters and de-
clared he was tired of hearing the
implication that he was afraid tn
mix with this Anderson youth. He
called for a contract and signed
without any more formality.
This match is certain to create
a lot of inter-city rivalry, for Mo-
line fans are lined up solidly be-
hind the fashy little scrapper that
has come among them so recently
while Davenport has always chung
to the hCuae products. Rock Island
fans will be keenly interested in
the outcome and it is likely most
of the local favor will be cast with
Anderson. Higgins, who won the
featherweight championship of the
army of occupation, will probably
nave a decided edge in weight on
the Moliner, due to the fact that
the latter is in best fighting trim
around the 11S-pound mark. Leo
balances the scales several pounds
above this figure. Nevertheless
Anderson has been accustomed sto
giving away huge chunks of avoir-
dupois in order to keep busy and
he will not feel particularly handi-
capped when he squares away in
front of the Davenporter.

O'BRIEN URGES
THAT PROS BAR
COLLEGE PLAYER

Chicago, Feb. 15-CoIlege stud
ents who play professional foot
ball aren't any good to them
selves, the college they are sup
posed to represent, or the team they
are playing for" according to Chris
O'Brien, manager of the Chicago
Cardinals. professional football
team here, in a statement made
public today.
Manager OBrien announced his
intentions of presenting a resolu-
ton at the next meeting of the
American Football association, a
professional organization, calling
for blacklist by the association OF
any football players who violate the
college amateur rules while still in
college.
I'm promoter. I'm profess
sional," he said. Il couldn't stay
in sport six months if didn't make
any money out of it, or if it didn't
pay NE at least my expenses. But l
do want to say that the 'cbeater' has
not more place in professional
ranks than he has in amateur.
I've had experience with these
'cheaters,' both as a promoter and
as player. I've never had
'cheater' on one of my teams, as far
as l know.
Promoters of professional foot
ball realize that their sport is
founded upon the integrity of the
college game. If the college game
is allowed to die, professional foot
ball will die with it. We're only
watching our own selfish interests
when We try to safeguard the col
lege game

WATER GOLF rs
LATEST FAD ON
PACIFIC COAST

Chicago, Feb. 15.-Water golf is
the latest addition to aquatic sports,
according to word received from
Jack Hutchinson, British open
champion, who has just finished a
tour of the Pacific coast. Along the
southern California seashore men
and women are playing the game
by driving the ball from a floating
tee while standing in a canoe or a
boat padded by an assistant. Bath
ing suits are worn by the players
and their seafaring caddies so that
the golfers may swim back to the
clubhouse in case an awkward
swing capsizes the vessel.
While golf in its native land of
Scotland was originally played
along the sands of the seaShore, it
never before has been translated to
the surface of the water, although
odd cases have been reported in
which golfers played ball from the
edge of a water hazard.
Naturally the new game violates
the cardinal rules of land golf. be-
cause the player is assisted by his
caddie, who steadies the boat while
the stroke is made The ball can
not be putted into hole as is done
on land, but may be shot at a fixed
area in the water, and the game is
played with many variations as-to
scoring and length of links.

S quintet, the latter winning three
games. The Harms team also was
minus several players for their ser
les with the Island Citys, but after
considerable argument the games
got started, just 20 minutes after
scheduled time The Harms-Island
Citys resulted in win for the for
mer in the first game. The Island
Citys won the middle and then lost
the final by 5 pins, due to u splits
and bad break against Paulsen in
the tenth frame.
Ed Danielson, league secretary,
was unable to have last nights
scores and the league standing
ready for publication today. Ac-
cording to reports the NJ and S
team came within a few pins of
beating the Island Citys one game
and three game scores. The Harms
club also shot big 900 game last
night.
Mote Manager Mangelsdorf IF
the Island Citys team says he will
probably withdraw his club from
the city league unless the captains
of the other teams turn in a ros-
ter of their respective clubs. If the
Island Citys withdraw from the
City league they will probably shoot
match games with the leading
teams of other leagues in the trI-
cities.)
