First Legion Smoker Friday
Night Was Snappy Affair

A good crowd attended the first Le-
gion smoker of the season at the Fair
pavilion last Friday evening, and they
were entertained by several good bouts.
The first match on the card. between
Copenhaver and Witcraft, went to the
former on two straight falls Witcraft
was too light and trifie young for
such an old head as Cope" but shows
promise of being very clever mat man
when he has had time to develop.
The four-round boxing match be-
tween Johnson and Eads was snappy
one, and although Johnson seemed to
have the edge Eads made him extend
himself. These two will take on Ione's
best sluggers at lone the last Of this
week, Johnson meeting Ahalt and Eads
taking on Sperry.
OF the two feature events of the eve
ming, the wrestling match between
Harry Turner and Harvey Bauman was
far and away the best While both men
took one fall, they were working all
the time, and were very evenly matched
although Turner outweighs Bauman by
a score of pounds. The other feature,
four rounds Of boxing between Lieu
allen and Valentine, was rather disap-
pointing because the boys did not show
the pep that was expected of them,
A fast match between Bucknum and
Ward took WELL Bucknum winning the
decision.
1t is expected that the Heppner post
will entertain a team from lone soon,
and when that comes off there will be
something worth while attending, for
the local boys want to even up their
football record.

alive and let Live.r

One of the most appealing features
of Live and Let Live" William Chris
ty Cabanne's powerful Robertson Cole
production to be seen at the Star Thea
ter Sunday is the humanness of the
characters which move throughout the
story. There are no movie of fic-
ticious types; no dark, smlrking viii
lians still pursuing" no curly headed,
strong armed heroes or simpering, Sob
bing little ingenues. There are instead
the simple, kindly folk one meets il
every day life.
Indeed Live and Let Live" Is a pro-
duction which, from every angle, be-
speaks sincerity and genuiness. Writ
ten and directed by William Christy
Cabanne himself 1t shows how very
often well-intentioned people may be-
cause Of prejudice and bigotry involve
not only their closest friends and rela
tives but also themselves in heart
breaking tragedies.
