scores of instances where college
athletes have been barred from par
ticipation in athletic events because

planned today that if Romney re-
mains in school this semester. he

Charlie Paddock. the great runner

feet his eligibility as an amateur,
but simply bars him from further
competition as a collegiRn.
Paddock brought the trouble on
himself by deciding to go to Homo

TELEPHONE FIGURES IN SPORT.
Have you ever noticed the important
IL part the telephone plays in the
amateur sport world these days?
The phone can be termed the
booking agent of fully 80 per cent
of the amateur and semiprofessional
football. basketball and baseball
teams. The team, from the small
est midget OUTFIT to the best of the
unlimited class. that is without a
phone. is like a Vaudeville act with
out a booking agent. 1t would go
stale for the want of action, the
same as a vaudeville act would dis
band for want of playing dates.
Look over the scores of chal-
lenges that appear daily on the
sport pages of teams wanting
games. Almost every one of them
can be reached by wire. II not,
the club gets few dates.

youngster whose parents have a
phone. or has a kind-hearted neigh

Is usually elected manager. II not.
he usually gets some title, as busi-
ness manager, or secretary. 1t is
his duty to get his phone number
in the paper and then wait for ac-
ton. He is seldom disappointed.
The phone has also cut down the
number of postponements to a min
imum. II one club is compelled to
cancel a game at the eleventh and
half hour. the manager is notified
by wire. This enables the manager
to dig up his phone book and date
another team to give his athletes
action. e.

YANKS MAY AGAIN
USE POLO GROUNDS

NEW YORK. March 16.-As more
than two weeks have passed since
the date when the New York
Yankees were to have awarded con-
tracts for the building of theifanew
stadium in the Bronx, reports are
afioat here that the Yanks will
make peace with the Giants. who
own the Polo Grounds. and try
again to arrange a long term lease
on that baseball resort
The removal of the Army-Navy
game from the Polo Grounds. will
curtail the Giants off-season rental
revenue and they may. be more
friendly in their attitude toward
the Yanks' proposals. For several
years both teams have been using
the Polo Grounds as the home park.

MOVIES
"The Journeys End"


 We cannot too strnogly recommend to the picture patrons of Bisbee, the strikingly beautiful production which will be shown tonight at the Eagle theatre and Thursday at the Central theatre.
 "The Journeys End" it is called, and not only is it distinct novelty in the art of picture making, but it is as we'll rare example of pictorial per lection, splendid direction and acting which borders on the superb.
 By far the most shrinking charac- terization is that of Mabel Ballin, who, as "The Girl paints with sure strokes as lovely a portrait as the screen has ever seen. Her cameo-like beauty-her rare artistry-her splen- didly sympathetic portrayal will un- doubtedly win for her a host of new admirers.
 Mention must also be made of Wyndham Standing, who makes "The Mill Owner" a vividly compelling fig ure. MT. Standing, a real veteran of the screen, has in the past done excel lent work, but nothing which may be in any way compared with this, his newest characterization.
 distinct surprise awaits those who see this excellent picture, for it

heartily funny that you want to relate it to someone just for the joy of mak- ing them laugh at Bryant Washburn made you laugh.
 Can you imagine what might hap pen when all that American pep that is Bryant Washburn's comes in con- tact with British deliberateness? I say, just fawney naow what might hap pen when he borrowed a-motor car in which to help a titled, but beautiful, English girl escape from a hated mar riage Over there they keep to the left of the road, doncha knaow! And they haven't forgotten what cork screws were invented for! And lot of things can happen to a daring young Yankee in a strange land!
 The Lyric theatre has been anxious to show "The Road to London" to it's patrons ever since Bryant Washburn crossed the big pond to produce it in and around London, and it is pleased to say that it considers the picture worth the trip, and then some. It will be shown today only.
