TROOPS DEPARTING

HENRYETTA, Okla, July l. Henryetta late today watched the de- parture of state troops for the sec ond time in three weeks. After Sunday that passed quietly, Majors HerskowitZ and Joe Campbell loaded their contingent Of 16 national guardsmen and set out late in the day for Oklahoma City. About 25 men under Col. F. l.. Head remain.
 All the national guard officers at tended in a body the services this morning at the church of which Rev. Cornelius Bowles is pastor. It was announced by Rev. Bowles that he intended to discuss the military occu patton of Okmulgee county that caused Gov. J. C. Walton early Sat urday to suspend the evacuation of the county and send more troops to Henryetta. The minister stated that he had good mind not to deliver his announced address, and the officers explained that they attended the services at his church merely In ob- servance of the Sabbath.
 Only two guardsmen were on de- tailed duty today, one acting as sentry at the police station and the other guarding the barracks. The remainder strolled around the streets with Henryetta girls, who treated their presence as lark, or attended a baseball game between Okmulgee and Henryetta.
 It Is believed, from unofficial re- ports, that the remaining troops will leave soon.

NEW PARTY PLANNERSI THE BAD MANI OPENS
 HOPE TO DRAFT FORD WEEKS RUN MONDAY .AS STANDARD BEARER AT LYRIC THEATRE
MelodramatiC Comedy To Be Presented By Resident
 Company

Monday night at the Lyric will mark the premiere of The Bad Man." Porter Emerson Browns fla nous comedy with a meiodramatic plot, which played all last season in New York. This comedy is now in it's thirteenth week at the Majestic theatre Los Angeles. and Birming- ham will get q peek at it before any of the other large cities.
 "The Bad Man" is far from a melo drama. It is a humorous satire on Villa, the bandit chief of Mexico, and all but two of the characters are American. The love interest is un- usually well developed in the plot and thrill follows thrill as the tense scenes unfold themselves, it is claimed.
 This play will initiate the new policy of all new and late stage suc- cesses, none of which have ever been seen in Birmingham before. All pro auctions will be built and painted new each week, with the cast aug mented from time to time by we'll known stage artists who will be inn ported from New York. The man agement states that the new policy is distinct success and has con tracted for such big successes as "Bluebeard's Eighth Wife" the Ina Claire success; The Gold Diggers," David Belasco's famous comedy, which ran two years in New York; "Welcome, Stranger" the most fla nous comedy of a decade, which ran a year in Chicago and a year in New York, and many other successes, in cuding Fay Bainter's East Is West"
