Chaplin Quits Bufoonery
For New Role Which
Results In 6 Reels Of Joy

Rumors which have been cur.
rent in the motion picture indus
try that Charlie Chaplin longed
to forsake the field of buffoonery
and appear in a dramatic role on
the screen have been verified as
having a substantial basis, for
the picture has been completed.
The idea, however, that he
would adopt the matinee idol
makeup and attempt to make
the public forget the character
which is identified bv his name
all over the world is merely a
mistaken idea engendered from
the report that he was working
in a dramatic picture.
The comedian has accomplished
the impossible in his latest pic
ture, The Kid" First Nation
ais six reels of joy, which will
be the attraction at the Social
Theater, Saturday, March 10.
Directors, previous employees
and others associated with him
in his screen career had pro-
nounced it impossible that he
appear in his screen character
in semi-dramatic story and
succeed in gaining sympathy as
we'll as laughs from his audiences
in the plight which the plot de-
velopedA
In "The Kid" however, ac-
cording to critics and others who
have seen it, he accomplishes it.
Charlie is there in the same
character which has gained him
the place as the worlds most
popular comedian, but in situa-
tions which combine an occasion
al sob with shrieks of laughter.
Charlie becomes the guardian of
a two weeks old baby, and ex-
pends upon him all the love and
devotion that any father could.
His character, however, makes
his every attempt a humorous
circumstance, but the heart
throbs are ever present in the
main theme of the story.

SNOWFLAKE LOSES
TO ST. JOHNS; WIN
FROM EAGER TEAM

The Academy Blue Devils lost
their first game of basket ball
played with the st. Johns high
team this season on the st. Johns
court last Friday evening by a
close score of 80 to 26. At the
end of the first half it looked as
though the Snowflake bows had
the game cinched, emerging
with lead of 18 to 9. With an
unexpected rally of the st. Johns
boys they passed their opponents
and put away enough points to
win the game. In each frame
of the game the Devils out shot
the Cats from the field, and
would have taken the game by
a good margin had it not been
for the large amount of fouls
that were called on them. The
last half of the game st. Johns
scored Is points on foul throws.
Snowflake will have an oppor-
to prove their superiority here
next Friday evening.
Round Valley Set-ups
1t was the same old story when
the local lads met the Eager
team on their own court Satur-
day evening. In fact the story
is a little easier to tell. The
Academy team played rings a.
round their opponents and in no
period of the game did it look
that Eager had one dim chance.
The game ended with the
Academy's second team on the
floor and a score standing 35 to
IL.

SCOUT REGULARS

The Snowflake Boy Scout bas-

Non-Scout team Wednesday in
which the Scout team was given
the thrashiDg of their young
lives. Although they took the
defeat like major sports the
score of II to 6 in favor of the
Non-Scout team did seem like a
bad dose to have to swallow.
The Scouts intend to get down
and practice now, so that when
they meet their admirers again
the score will tell a different tale.
