ing to beat up officer Edward Young

fused to quiet down, it is alleged, and
told Young they would beat him UP

beating him up when they found the
task too great for them to handle.

feet tall, shot out his fists to all
angles and in a short time had the
four in a taxi and was driving hem
off to the police station. All of the
quartet were inuesed up quite a bit

THEATRES
At The Crescent

1.-THE Sea Raiders" which opened
at the Crescent theatre yesterday, is
a stirring picture play with the cod
fishing industry off the Canadian
coast as a background. There are
many exciting situations, and the
element of suspense is well sustain
ed. There are two fist fights in the
picture which will quicken the pulses
of all who are fond of red blooded
action pictures.
Betty Bouton is a chaming heroine
as Mary Burke, granddaughter OF the
storekeeper in the little fishing viii
lage on the island of Mademoiselle,
and Edward Phillips is a vigorous
young heman hero. Charles Eidridge.
the we'll known character actor, does
excellent work as Captain Burke,
| America Chedister is convincingly
pathetic as Elsie, demented by the
death of her sweetheart at sea, and
Edward Lawrence is quite satisfao-
tory in the character Of CAPTAIN
Bruce Stoneman, the highly disiika-
bic villain.
The direction. by e. H. ''ffith, is
excellent, and the photography re-
markedly good. THE Sea Raiders
is a Second National Pictures Cor
poration release, produced by Mari
time Studios.

who is supporting Lenore Uric in
"Kiki;" Anders Randolf, Helene,
Montrose, Paul Panzer and Harry
Short. Another fine actor who has a
prominent pat in the picture is Jean
tionally intelligent dog.
Mighty LAX a Rose" is a crook
play. 1t shows the power of music
not only in swell society but in the
underworld where desperate crooks
plan desperate work. The story is a
battle of a violin, in the hands of a
beautiful and innocent girl, against
wayward souls. Mr.. Carewe Is said
to have made a picture that is grip
ping in d~elineation of men and wo-
men who are gradually drawn from
the wide and crooked path to the
straight and narrow one. He has
built up a smashing climax wherein
some of these old, hardened crooks
take on a social covering that allows
them to enter society homes.

will have another idol in Miss Mac
kali. Also extra attraction, official

Tilden has been the leader Of a
group of prominent players who have
maintained the association was too
dominant and too autocratic in its
jurisdiction over the players.
Too Much Authority
The champion maintained the asso-
citation exceeded its authority in try
ing to tell the players what they could
and could not do with their time and
in entering them promiscuously in
tournaments where they had no de-
sire to play.
Tilden obviously is sincere in his
threat that he will not play with
the Davis cup team in the future II
the American committee persists in
its policy of secrecy in making the
appointments for the team and ap-
ERpintng the combinations.
Strong With Public
There is a chance, however, that
Tilden will not be permitted 10 with
draw as a Davis cup player The
CHAMPION is very secure in his posi-
ton and he knows the public will not
support the association in an argu-
ment that is so obviously political.
Tilden, of course, is not bigger than
the sport. but he is too big to be
treated like a novice, and he has done
much for the game Of tennis.
Tilden's case has much in common
with that of Charlie Paddock against
the a. a. L. Because Paddock sought
the right of individual freedom, the
A. a L. attempted to discipline him
and threatened to declare him a pro
fessional.
Paddock Not Barred
Paddock went on about his business
and he will not be barred from the
American Olympic team. No tennis
association can, with public support,
keep Bill Tilden of the American
Olympic team or the Davis cup team
for such childish reasons.
Tilden insists too much ON the ex-
ercise of his own independence to suit
the bosses of the United States Lawn
Tennis Association. and Tilden Is the
first player who has had courage
enough to come out and insist the
PLAYERS be treated like something more
than vassals under the domination OF
the association.
