asserted that the "intellectualS have

antidote to overcome radicalism, Mr..
Zimmerman said:

BY DONALD H. CLARKE.

Whenever something is said about
making motion pictures talk, a nat
uraI question that arises is. What do
actors and actresses really say to each
other before the camera anyhow; do
they speak lines in character, do they
say anything that comes into their
heads at the moment, or do they just
make their mouths go and say moth
ing?
It would be rather startling if any
one of the photodramas completed up
to the present writing should be sud
denly given the power of speech.
There is little doubt that the audIAnce
would get an ear full. 1t might run
something like this:

DIET BEATEN AT WICHITA.
Reducing Classes at Y. w. Crowded
With ETeshy Women.

Wichita, Kan, Feb. 25.-Three
weeks ago fat women's reducing
class was formed in the Wichita Y.
w. c. A. Today interest in the class
has surpassed all expectations and not
another applicant could be accom-
modated, Y. W. officials say, without
the formation of new class.
There is no mystery in the large en-
rollment- Results explain the eager
ness of those outside to enter the class.
Five pounds in three weeks is the
average reduction in weight of each
member. One woman has lost ten
pounds. The instructor in charge is
authority for the statement that it is
better to grow slender by degrees
rather than with undue rapidity. Glass
members have decided, therefore, to
continue their work until the middle
of May, when they expect to possess
forms in keeping with their ideal
weight.

eide the championship of the North
east Kansas league. After leading the
league the entide season by safe
margin, Topeka lost to Horton last

shows its playing has been superior
to that of Horizons. Horton is known
in the first district for its ability to,
round out a well balanced team each
season, and these teams seldom fail to
cop honors of some variety. Horton

selected for the Sample of the sort of
thing that other actors and actresses
do every day. 1t would never do to
reveal to motion picture patrons the
women of the screen who do not talk

There is one great director, at least,
who never lets his cast know just why
they are smiling and walking and
weeping and mailing gestures. He
handles them like puppets. And he is
tremendously successful. About all
any one would hear in a talking mo-

WASHBURN WINS GAME
Defeats Kansas wesIeyans by a Score
of "a to IS.

The Washburn college five out
pointed the Kansas Wesleyan quintet
and won by a score of 81 to 1S in a
game played last night at Thomas
gymnasium.
The game was much closer than the
score indicated. The Wesleyan agere-
CATION completely outclassed the Icha-
bods on floor work, working the ball
down the court at q much faster pace
and also playing a better passing
game. However, Wesleyan's inability
to hit the cage the first period, lost the
the first half. The Wesleyan team
broke thru the Washburn defense and
failed many times to score. The score
at the end of the period was: Wash
burn, Is; Wesleyan, 5.
The Methodists made a squirt at the
opening of the second half and played
Washburn off it's feet. 1t scored seven
points in rapid succession and cut
down Washburns lead to three tallies.
With the exception of the next few
minutes when Washburn struck a
lucky streak and scored five field bas-
kets, Wesleyan outplayed Washburn.
Pierce, guard, was the outstanding
Wesleyan player. He was not only the
backbone of the Methodist's defense
but played, good defensive game,
caging three field baskets. Scott, Wes-
leyan crack forward, did not have a
chance to display his wares on account
of the close guarding of D. Erickson
and Brewster. Brunton, Washburn
center. who replaced Blevins, when
Blevins was taken from the game on
account of personal fouls, played a
good game, altho it was his first ap-
pearance in the lineup this season.
A. Erickson, Washburu forward,
played a commendable game, scoring
fourteen of Washburn's twenty-seven
points He made nearly all his points
from long shots. Stevens displayed
excellent floor work.
