Hollywood Hits
Top Notes in Noise
sliding Billy" Watson Gives a
Show at the Columbia That
Splits Ears. but Nof S;des

Rehearsals of Hollywood Inn.n
Sliding Billy" Watson's Big Fun
Show. which was presented at the Co.
lumbia Theatre yesterday afternoon,
must have been conducted in wide
open space in the hills with no atten-
tion paid to the possibility of strain
on human ears or the rafters of a
theater roof. Seldom, has a noisier pro-
duction come to, this thsater, nor has
a chorus with more raucous voices
been revealed.
A combination Of screeching voices
and fortissimo playing is not funny
and the producers Of Hollywood Innh
should reduce the lung power of the
players considerably. The east is not
up TO the standard set by other shows
which have played at the Columbia
this season. Sliding Billy Watson
still has his slide, but little else, and
It would not be difficult to name bur
leaque comedians who are more enter
tanning. He needs new material. the
production, in fact, needs more con-
neeted and intelligent book. Above all
Is moderation of the splitting
noises needed

Broker to Explain
To Court Why He
Repudiated Check
Gambling Debt Dispute Be-
tween Mr.. Frankenheimer
and MIR. Sinshein,er ls
to Have Another Inning

Harold Frankenheimer, member of
the New York Stock Exchange, will
have another opportunity of telling in
court why he stopped payment on
check for $2,572 which he gave John
Grosberg, who IN turn fndorsed it and
turned it over to Benjamin l.. Sins
heimer, it's present holder. Mr.. Sins
heimer already has a judgment against
Mr.. Frankenheimer for the amount of
the check, but the defendant, having
applied to the Supreme Court to open
the default upon which judgment was
given to the plaintiff, obtained favor
able decision from Justice Burr yester-
day, SO Mr.. Frankenheimer, who ex-
planned he gave the check In payment
of gambling debt. may come in and
defend the action. In the mean time,
however, Justice Burr decided the judg-
ment already given will stand as
security.
In asking5that the default be opened
the Stock Exchange member swore that
he had not been served in the suit, SO
he had no opportunity to make o de-
fense. He said the first he knew about
the proceeding was when he received a
notice from Sheriff Nagle that a levy
would be made against his property. He
was served also with a subpoena to
appear in supplemental proceedings
and testify as to his assets.
Expressing his surprise that he
should be sued on a debt which he con-
sidered void, MIR. Frankenheimer said,
he explained the situation to Lerenz
Reich jr, attorney for Mr.. Sinsheimer.
On the other hand, Mr.. Reich denied re-
| ceiving any disclaimer from the broker
of the alleged obligation, the attorney
adding that Mr.. Frankenheimer prom
ised to pay.
A process server in trying to prove
he served s4Ar. Frankenheimer with the
original summons in the suit, said he
handed the paper to Mr.. Frankenheimer
at the Stock Exchange and that the de-
fendant refused to take it, and that he,
the process server, was thrown out of
| the exchange. Before that, said the
process server, he had tried for ten
days to serve the broker at his home at
13a West Eighty-Arst Street and at his
| Office.
MIR. Frankenheimer admitted he saw
| the process server elected, but asserted
the latter had not spoken to him.
| Charles Bell, doorkeeper at che Stock
| Exchange, said it was part of his duties
to keep out all persons not members Of
the exchange.

Cilda Shimmies i'm Ire,
Crying Burn Britannica!'
Casts Encyclopedias That Spoke
Harshly of Baker Into Blaze,
While Press Agent Cheers

You never can tell where patriotism
will strike next Now it's Gilda GRAY
chanting "Burn Britannica, to her
servants and pleading for a bonfire Of
encyclopedias on every temple hill of
America.
Theatergoers apparently never have
appreciated the erudition and the spirit
above her quivering shoulders as they
watched her shimmy her way to glory.
Even her mother, little suspecting that
she knew more about history than the
man who wrote the "Britannica," made
she mistake of suggesting that her edu-
Eation might be advanced if she read
the stories In the encyclopedias.
Last night however, it appeared
through her press agent that Gilda
knows all about how Secretary Baker
ebeyed President Wilson and showed
he was good soldier, and how Rud-
yard Kipling got sore on the United
States when he was laughed out of
New hampshire for not liking New
England pie.
Any of Gilda's servants can tell YOU
this, for they were all present when
she, told about it in the speech she
made IN the back yard of her home al
Rockville Centre, before she cast the
Britannica into the flames. They sal
up talking about it most of last nirht
The part they liked best went some
thing like this:
II wish every American girl would
follow my example. I'd like to see the
country lighted up with burning
Britannicas. The attack on our forne N
Secretary of War in this British pub
iicatlon finishes the British for me. y
After that she gave out her new
words for the tune of "Rule. Britannia .

1t was some time before DR.. Beachy
heard of the calamity that had be-
fallen those most dear to him. To
lose both wife and only son in the
twinkling on an eye was a severe
blow to the husband and father. And
equally cruel to the wife of the most
unfortunate young man. who received
the dire news at her home a short
time after it happened.
Mrs. Lydia Beachy was the eldest
daughter of Emanuel Hershberger,
of Grantsville. She was So years of
age on the 18th of October last, and
was a woman most highly esteemed
and loved by all who knew her. Be

dustrious. She was the mother of
two sons besides the one who lost his
life in attempting to save her, both
of whom died in infancy.
Jonas R. Beachy, the only child of
his parents who grew up, was
young man of high intelligence, in
dustry and nobility of character. He
was about 30 years of age and had
been twice married. His first wife was
a daughter of Bishop Moses D. Bea-
chy, of Grantsville. She died in Jan
uary, 1921, and some months after
ward he married Amanda, daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Lewis S. Yoder, of

Mrs. Beachy is survived, besides
her husband, by her aged father, Mr..

RITCHIE WILL BEGIN
BILL SIGNING TODAY
Governor Kept Busy Receiving
Delegations FavOring Or
Opposing Measure.

Governor Richie, according to this
mornings Baltimore Sun, found yes
terday far too short for the work of
receiving delegations favoring or OPP
posing certain bills, for getting some
first-hand knowledge of the bills for
himself before signing or vetoing
them and for disposing of the routine
of the executive office.
No bills of Statewide Importance
will be vetoed by the Governor, it was
intimated last night, and it could not
be ascertained what local bills, if any,
would meet this fate. But the signing
of the bills will be begun today and
finished also, if the Governor is phys
ically able to accomplish the task.
Three delegations received the Gov
ernor's especial attention at the Ex-
ecutive Office at Annapolis. One was
from the Automobile Club of Mary
land, which protested against sew
eral provisions of the Joseph Automo-
bile bill. Another was from Cecil
county, favoring the bill designed to
wipe out the "Gretna Greens"i Cecil,
Somerset and Montgomery counties.
The third was from Baltimore county
favoring the Mcintosh bill which
would have all executions take place
in the Maryland Penitentiary instead
of at the several county seats

AMOUNT OF $6,495,OOO
AVAILABLE FOR ROADS
Chairman Mackall, OfState Com
mission, Figuring on Work
for This Year.

Now that the Legislature has ad.
jOurned and there is no danger of
cuts in the budget, the State Roads
Commission can safely estimate Just
about how much money it will have
to spend this year on roads and
bridges. John n Mackall chairman
Of the commission, figures that the
board will have about $6,495 900 avail
able, the bulk of which is already
contracted for.
According to Mr.. Mackall's figures,
the $1,500,000 construction bond issue
when matched with the 5000" fund
from the Federal Government and the
counties, will provide 100000 for
new construction work. The MAIN
tenance and reconstruction figures
are put in the budget at $1,S00,0O0.
Baltimore city will get a total of
100000. The Severn River bridge
fund, which is already preempted,
amounts to $75O,OOO. Mr.. Mackall
estimates that about 100000 may be
available after the deficit is made up
from the 1-cent gasoline tax, which
goes into effect in June.
The task of collecting this money
rests with the Comptroller. Mr.. Mac.
kali will confer with Comptroller
Gordy soon on plans to make the coll
lection. 1t is thought that this will
involve little difficulty, as the tax will
be imposed at the base, so to speak,
and will be collected from and paid
over by about eight of the big oil
companies operating in the State. Mr..
MackalI says that approximately
$4,000 will be available from Federal
aid funds left over from preceding
years, with about $25O,O00 from the
first issue Of the proposed 100000
bond sale for the construction of the
Baltimore-Southern Maryland road.
This bond issue viii be sold in the
fall.
Delegations from the counties are
already making their appeals to the
commission for road construction pro-
grams. There is hardly a county in
the State which could not use up the
entire amount that will be obtain
able for construction if the commits.
sion were to pave every road individ-
uals Of the delegations demanded.
The commission will maintain the
same policy which it used last year in
construction. Ii will award no con-
tracts for roads Of any great length.
All Of the contracts will range from
mile to four or five miles, except
in a few cases where important con.
Meeting links are needed.
Mr.. Mackall declared today that he
expected to use the funds left over
from the gasoline tax after the exist
ing deficit is made up in connecting
the links through towns in the
counties.
