SHIRLEY MASON A HIT
IN THE LAMPLIGHTER'

There is so much Of the unusual
and unexpected in the story of 1.-The
Lamplighter,' at the Grand tomor-
row, that it seems as though William
Fox. its producer, started out, in this
particular film play, with a purpose
to break away from all the familiar
devices of screened narrative. The
work is consequently one of the most
refreshing, while one of the strong
est. film stories it has been our good
fortune to witness. And Shirley
Mason. its dainty star, is to be con-
graduated on having found so splen-
did a vehicle for her talents.
The story is the creation of Maria
Susanna Cummins.
Many who have seen 1.-The Lamp
lighter" declare it is one of the most
beautiful and worthwhile pictures
they ever witnessed. In it Miss Ma
son-than whom there is no more
delightful young person entrusted
with roles on the screen-is afford
ed part that runs the entire gamut
of human emotion.

America Is Most
Fertile Field in the
World for Aeros

Genoa, June 2.-Gianni Caproni,
the Italian airplane inventor and con-
structor, considers the United States
today to be the best field in the world
for the development of civilian avia-
ton, He prepared and brought to
Genoa comprehensive program for
aerial communication over Europe,
but this will have to wait, he said to-
day, owing to the limited financial
strength Of the various countries en-
braced in his scheme. "But in the
United States" the Italian inventor
continued, civilian aviation promises
to make rapid progress.
"The country covers roughly about
the same area as Europe" and all
the elements for speedy growth are
present. | hope to contribute to this
branch Of American activity"
Germans are showing the greatest
activity in Europe at the present
time in the field of aeronautics, &C
cording to aerial observers at Genoa
during the recent conference. An
thony Fokker and Professor Junkers,
both German experts, have leased
three airplane factories in Holland.
The Zeppelin company is active in a
factory on the Swiss side of Lake
Constanza, and at the same time has
leased an Italian factory near Genoa
and is organizing a company for av-
iation construction near Seville,
Spain.

QUARTER MILE
CIkDER TRACK
BEING PLANNED
Fastest Track In Country Ev-
pected to Be Built at
Stanford Stadium.

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Cal,
Feb. 20.-Stanford is planning to
build in the new stadium here a
quarter-mile cinder path which is
expected to be the fastest in the
country. Work son the track will
start at once.
c. w. Dad Moulton, veteran Stan
ford trainer. who has supervised con
struetion OF several fast cinder paths,
will act in an advisory capacity in
the building of the new path. San
Francisco engineers who built the
stadium have been given the contract
FOR the work.
Rice mats will be used as the
foundation for the track. The engin-
GERS believe the >mats will give the
track a springy surface if they are
laid first and ever them is spread a
layer of hard coal cinders, imported
from the East
While the track is being built a
drainage system also will be in
stalled in the stadium. Approximate
ly $4,000 will cover the cost of the
track and drainage system, it is fig
ured.
The first important track meet to
be held in the new stadium will be
against the University of California
next year.

81 never did shine up very much
to the policy of some minor league
club owners in permitting their teams
to become farms for major league
outfits" Keeper said recently.
1.-THE farm policy means that the
major league team just lends the use
of the players and it can riddle the
miner league team any time it wants
to recall some Of its men.
"Of course, the policy means I'M
certainty and poorer type of base
ball. It's all right for the Glass B or
c leagues, but it does not go very
well in Glass IA.
81 think the fans like to know that
the players are owned by the club
They also like to feel that the club
is ready to go out and buy players
when they are needed, instead Of
just accepting them as a temporary
loan.
when you own them you can han
die them as you please and when you
sell the good ones You can demand
and get good players in return
around which to build your club the
following year. In that way you are
not always at the mercy Of some
major league clubs.
GAS long as | am in baseball, and
j hope to be in lit for a good many
years, | do not expect to handle many
players on optional agreements from
the majors. Now and then it's all
right to take player or two that
way, but like the policy far bet
ter of owning my own players"
