STANTON JUNIORS BEST
OF 125-POUND ELEVENS

Stanton Juniors certainly have a
strangle hold on the 125-pound div
sion foot ball championship of the
city. When they dowried the Arabs.
to 0, yesterday in challenge match
at Union Park, the Stanton young
sters ended a season in which they
not only escaped defeat, but never
permitted a rival to cross their goal
line. Thirteen games were played
by the new champions and 122 points
registered against opponents
Against the Arabs yesterday the
Stantons were masters of the situa-
ton at all times, but they were not
permitted to romp to victory. The
Arab eleven played straight foot ball
all the way and made seven first
downs, as many as the Stanton
Juniors were able to register.
The Stantons did their scoring in
the fourth period, although they
were credited with two points when
b. Altman of the Arabs, punting from
behind his own goal, kicked outside
for safety. In the final session,
Keegan skirted left end for 80 yards
to a touchdown. A forward pass,
Sweeney to Flaherty, accounted for
the extra point.

re-tees fer another drive, but this
time, to avoid the hazard as much
as possible, he places his ball on
the opposite side of the tee, near
the left marker. From this posi-
tfon he escapes the hazard and
lines out a fine drive down the
middle OF the fairway.
REFEREES DECISION.
The player forfeited the hole i'm
match play and two strokes In
medal play. When a ball is driven
out of bounds the second ball must
be teed on the same spot from
which the first ball was driven.

~ FFENSE-The subject of Of
fense in basket ball is a
broad one, so broad, in fact,
that it comprises in itself almost
the whole game. Offense consists
in catching, passing, dribbling and
shooting the ball, in jumping, start
ing, stopping, pivoting and dodging,
and in those formations which are
used to advance the ball toward the
opponents goal
\ As the first opportunity to start
an offense comes when the ball is
put in play by the referee in the
center, it will be well to explain
some of the possibilities. from this
position, taking it for granted that
YOUR center man is at least the equal
of his opponent in getting the tap"
when we come to advice on de-
fense we will take care of the case
where your center is being out
junped.) All teams have a number
of set plays from the jump ball in
center; few teams will have more
than six.

"Cosi Fan Tutte" Cyrene Commandery Offering At
 Masonic Auditorium

A supreme artistic achievement, staged in all it's elaborate detail un- der the personal direction of William Wade Hinshaw. nationally known artist-producer of New York, will mark the coming presentation by the Cyrene Commandery drill corps, Knights Templar, of Mozart's opera comique, "Cosi fan Tutte," or The 5chol for Lovers," with Irene Will S1iams, celebrated American prima donna, and an all-artist American cast, touring under the management of the Associated Musical Bureaus of America.
 This delightful musical and dra- amatie offering will be presented at the Masonic auditorium on Thursday evening, and it promises to be one of the outstanding events of the week, if not the season. The seat sale be- gins Monday at the auditorium box office.
 With the same painstaking devotion to perfect art that has characterized Mir. Hinshaw's every production, dat ing from the days when he himself was a leading artist of the Metro politan Opera and later, when as pres 1dent and dynamic leader of the So- ciety of American Singers, his pro- ductions won unstinted and unanl- rnous praise from New York critics, MT. Hinshaw has injected his own re- marxabls artistic personality into this super production, cooperating with our management in a serious and most praiseworthy effort to revive the best in musical literature.
 Of especial import to the musical public also is the fact that the Eng fish version of this eXquisitely charm ing work was written by the late Henry Edward Krehbiel of New York dean of American musical critics.
 Irene Williams needs no introduce tion to the American musical public, for She holds an enviable place as a recitalist and concert artist Of beauti- ful voice and charming artistry Her work last season as "Leonora" was a sansationA success and critics from coast to coast indorsed her vocal abilities, her acting and her personal charm in no uncertain language. She will undoubtedly duplicate her sue cess on her second annual trans continental tour as star of "Cosi fan Tutte.'

SALvI REVELATION
 IN HARP's WONDERS
Music Study Club To Present Great Artists Next Wednes-
 day Night

No one who was so fortunate as to have heard Albert Salvi when he gave an entire program last winter for the Music Study club will ever forget that evening, an evening of music such as few In this genera tion had ever heard. Melodies that lifted and swung in great waves of feeling like the rise and swell of an ocean tide" Who knew that a harp could play like that? Who had dreamed that a harpist, with his stock arpeggios and hackneyed rip pies of cloying sweetness, could hold an audience spellbound for an entire evening?
 A truly great thing, indeed, is it, to reveal to the world the possibili- ties of some instrument that has long been used in a smaller way than that of which 1t Is capable. The organ was one of the oldest of mu- sical instruments. yet through the years 1t lay waiting for the genius, Bach, to reveal its wonders. The violin, in primitive forms at least, was one of the oldest of musical in struments. Yet Paganini, not so many years ago, revealed 1t in a new light.
 Today there has come before the world another genius who has taken yet a third instrument that has long been waiting for some great mast CTS hands to reveal its true possi- bilities. The harp is one of the old est of all instruments in musical history. It has always been one of the most beautiful; the subject of poets and historians for many cen turies. Yet it has never been recog- nized as having unlimited concert possibilities.
 But there comes a genius who with seemingly magic hands-sud- denly awakes tremendous power and adds new beauties, new undreamed of possibilities of color and effects, to this, perhaps, the most loved of all instruments.
 With his immense gold harp AL berto Salvi, the Italian wizard of the harp" has astonished the world with his playing.
 It is no wonder that this young master has created a sensation eyery-

 IN MAKING SCENES.
Ancient Emotional Melody Proves Too Much For. Those
 Making "Humoresque"

Movie directors are great believers in atmosphere. Some of them insist that emotional scenes cannot be filmed with justice without the aid of music. Director Frank Borzage, who handled "Humoresque." coming to the Capitol theatre Monday and Tuesday, is of this type.
 Some of the scenes of "Humor- esque" are laid in New York's Jew ish quarter on the East Side. Bor- gage accordingly brought a Hebrew cantor and his choir to the studio. The director prepared to shoot" the episode in the picture, where the mu- sician-hero is told that he will never be able to play again.
 Give us some sad music" or dered Borzage of the cantor.
 The Hebrew choir struck into the weird strains of "Kol Nidre."
 Now "Kol Nidre" Is a famous He brew melody-the most emotional and it's beauty and heart-rending ap- teal are well known to anyone who has attended synagogue. The play CTS in 'Humoresque" became con- scious of It's effect immediately. Vera Gordon. playing the old mother, wept real tears. Gaston Glass, the hero, seemed suddenly to have lost his best friend. Even the electri- elan looked woe-begone and the cameraman forgot to turn the crank.
 Stop it"' shouted Borzage to the musicians and even his voice was a little quavery. T want pathos but l can't afford to turn this place into a morgue."
 So the choir played a Ghetto jazz tune, instead and immediately re- stored the smiles to everyone's S cheeks.
 Wednesday and Thursday of this week, the Capitol offers a second run production, and one that made a tremendous hit when 1t played here a few days ago, The Gold Diggers," !" starring Louise Fazenda, and a host of stars. who do some of their great est work In this wonderful picture.

CHARMING OPERA7F[AVOR OF FRANFCE COMING THURSDAY NEEDED FOR 'ZAzk'
Properties To Give Gloria Swanson Picture Right At-
 mosphere Hard To Obtain

Getting the French atmosphere in "Zaza," Allan Dwan's new Paramount production of the famous play with Gloria Swanson in the title role, which comes to the Strand all next week, was no simple task for the property men at the company's Long Island studio, where the picture was filmed Gathering the properties for one scene in "L'Odeon Theater," a cafe chantant, took two weeks time.
 A partial list of the properties for this scene included: Forty eight French water bottles, dozen special match stands. dozen saucers, 10 dozen liquor glasses, 2 dozen special salad bowls, ? dozen coffee pots, 3 dozen individual coffee percolators, dozen small plates, small forks. snail shells, canned snails, dozen pepper mills, l dozen oil and vinegar castors, dozen absinthe' bottles and spoons 10 dozen French cigarettes French taXicabs, and hardest of all, ? dozen real Holland gin bottles.
 For the interior of Zaza's love nest near the little town of St. Etienne, France, it was necessary to obtain dozens of French gimcracks, china ornaments. old-fashioned furniture. a. miniature French piano and other things that would suit the fancy of the temperamental Zaza. Furnishing the chateau of Duke DeBrissac also was no easy task. and giving the proper atmosphere to Dufresne's apartment took considerable time and pains.
 Tn addition to the excellent acting of Miss Swanson, H. B. Warner Lu- cille LaVerne, Ferdinand Gottschalk and others in the cast, the picture Is said to be most remarkable in the faithfulness of its investiture. A corps of property men spent weeks gathering the necessary things to make the picture typically French in tone and color, so that the various scenes are true to type.
