BlJDD READY TO
MEET STRIBBLINC
Beth Fights Eager To End Fistic
Feud AT Albany
Thursday

ALBANY, May 16.-"Young''
Stribbling, of Macon, who meets
Battling Budd,' OF Atlanta Thurs
day night for the fifth time, in
which each has won one decision and
three have been draws, is hard at
work at the Macon Athletic club pre-
pairing for the fight of his life, as he
is anxious to prove to the fans Of
South Georgia that he is Budd's mas
ter at any stage of the game.
On the other hand Walk" Miller
gave out the statement that Budd will
knock out Young Stribbling and
thereby end the fstic fued that has
been on between these two boys for
the last three months in as many cit
les. Walk Miller says that another
bout will be unnecessary. "Pa" Strib-
bling, of Macon, is equally sure.
Anyway, when The two get to-
gether in the Ioped arena Thursday
night at the Auditorium which is
neutral ground, there is no doubt
that the fur will fly.
The American Legion is sponsoring
the boxing program which is about
the largest athletic exhibition of its
kind ever held in South Georgia, and
includes the cream of the South as
far as boxing goes.
There will be 80 rounds slated in
which Kid Earl, of Columbus, meets
the hard-hitting Eddie Cook, of Sa-
vannah, in 10 rounds.
"Rawbone" Sheppard meets John
ny White in six rounds, both of Ma
con. Baby Stribbling, young
brother of young" Stribbling, takes
on Jack Pringle in a four-round cur
tain-raiscr.
Such a program ought to satisfy
the most skeptical fan. The program
will start promptly at $3.50 p. m. and
from the advance sale the Auditorium
will be packed to the doors.
A block of seats has been set aside
for Americas fans, the management
states, and tickets may be reserved
by wiring j. j. West, Albany.

AT THE RYLANDER

"A HE KGLANDEK
Beyond The Rocks" is one of the
very best pictures of the year, ac-
cording to several Americas people
who have seen the picture in Atlanta
or in the North during the past three
weeks. 1t is at the Rylander today
and Wednesday, with two shows each
day, matinees at and nights at
S:15.
Gloria Swanson and Rodolph Val
entino are the leading stars, both of
whom are among the most popular
screen stars with Americas audiences.
Many of the scenes were photograph
ed around Catalina Island, familiar
to number of Americas travellers.
Wherever the picture has been
shown, it has so far drawn overflow
houses, so Manager Rylander was in
formed by telegram Monday from
the producers. A special musical
program has been arranged for the
performances with continuous music.
Gloria Swanson can't swim a
stroke However, that did not deter
her when it became necessary for
her, in scenes in Beyond the Rocks"
to plunge into the ocean near Cata-
lima Island, out of her own boat and
then keeping up to the best of her
ability until rescued by Rodolph Val
entino, who plays the leading mans
role.

deliberately fall out of a boat into
the water until tried to do it in a
natural way" observed the star, af-
ter the Ferilous scenes had been Sc

slipped out of the oar-lock, however,

and that gave me the idea. By pull
it slip out, and throwing myself to
one side, | would seem naturally to
fall right over the side of the tipping
boat into the water.
"The camera started and gathering
all my courage, | splashed over the
side into the water. When | got my
breath, screamed for the rescue sig
nal and soon Mr.. Valentino had
reached me- At first / ducked him
in my struggles, but finally l got my
senses together and Gained down a
little. Then they pulled US into
boat. We were in the water about
twenty minutes altogether and after
the scenes l was sick for a little while,
due to having swallowed the salt
water" ...
Although Miss Swanson was for
merly heralded as Mack Sennett
bathing girl, she has never learned
to swim.
