EXCELLENT ENTERTAINMENT
AT RYLANDER TODAY

Maurice Turneur has a hitherto
unsupported gift for high comedy.
This news comes from the Rylan-
der theater where The Brass Bot
tie" is being shown today and
and Friday, and in which the
Frenchman reveals a new angle of
his talent. With much of the in
tense drama, the mystery, the eerie
that has fascinated his followers in
the past, The Brass Bottle" has
yet another element-fantasie.
In previous pictures the poet
producer" has relieved his intense
Iy dramatic sequences with chuckle
provoking bits. In "The Brass
Bottle" he gives Sore-laugh msucles
a chance to rest while the specta-
tors interest is gripped.
But despite its strongly melodra-
matte note, the piece is a farce
comedy, fantasia, without measure
or doubt. Add oddly enough, for
motion picture, there isn't a bit
of action in the whole seven reels
that could be called funny. There
isn't a signle comedy prop; not {
foot of slapstick. The laughs come
from the situations.
With "The Brass Bottle" is be
ing shown a two-reel Charlie Chap
lin comedy, "The Floorwalker, y
completing a program which should
be a joy for Americas for two days.

ARTHUR J. KELLY SAYS
NEGRO WORRY NORTH
Trenton, N. j., Man in Americas
Says Segregation Becoming
Increasingly Necessary

With the exodus of negroes from
the South, Northern states are con
rronted with two serious problems,
said Arthur J. Kelly, of Trenton,
n. j., and former Knights of Co
lumbus secretary at Americas and
Souther Field, during the war. MIR.
Kelly is spending several days in
Americas, his first visit here since
the close of the worlds conflict.
The situation in many sections
Of the North, asserted Mr.. Kelly,
"is one of providing adequate
school and housing facilities for the
colored people coming from the
South. During pre-war times there
were sufficient school houses to
care for white children in the
North, and little attention in many
respects to constructing additional
school houses. With the close of
the war the majority Of the cities
in the North found themselves in
need Of more school space. Con-
fronted by this problem of educat-
! ing whites the situation is grow
! ing acute as to the education of the
/ colored children. Northern educa-
tors find that segregation of the
negro pupils brings better results.
As a result of this experience more
schools will have to be built"
Commenting on the housing con-
ditions for negroes in the North
Mr.. Kelly said that this situation
was the shardest to solve. Gun
scrupulus realty dealers have caus-
ed many old time residents to va
cate their homes, which for a quar-
ter Of a century or more has been
the family homestead, This is not
seriously objected to, because a
change of residence like every 9th
err change sometimes is beneficial.
Segregation is the only feasible
solution for housing the negroes"
says Kelly. I'm fact before the
lniIuX OF the negroes began to
grow every Northern municipality
had its section for colored people
Through such sectional arrange
ment the negroes were benefited
mostly.
There is a movement on foot
in the North to provide acreage for
the Southern negro and start him
in agriculture" continued the for
Der Knights Of Columbus secre-
tary. $50 much the better, pro-
vidcd he can stand the rigors of
the Northern winter, and make
financial ends meet. Their part in
industry in a number of cases so
far is Just about parting from

who have newly come from the
South. In the large cities a.num-

SEWANEE DRIVES OVER MOCCASINS
Miller, MiIard And Kent Star In Tiger Victory Over
 Chattanooga

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, Nov B. Special. .)-Sewanee's powerful driv- ing line, headed by Blood" Miller, Milard and Kent, ably seconded by the other four members of the for ward septette. smashed the way for 26-o victory over the University of Chattanooga here today.
 Long runs by Harris and Heinie Powers figured in the attack. The contest was not nearly so onesided as the score might indicate. Chattta- noogal Keeping the ball through the first half, after Sewanee had marched from the kickoff to the touchdown.
 Four times the Tigers held for downs near their goal line and after the last time Harris broke loose for 80 yards and second touchdown.
 In the third period, Chattanooga again kept the ball in Sewanee ter ritory, but lacked the punch to get even close to scoring.
 As the third period closed, Heinie Powers was away for a 40-yard run and putting the ball on the 6yard line the fourth period. Chattanooga stopped the Tigers at the one-yard line, but Gates kick was blocked by Miller and Kent fell on the ball for 8 touchdown.
 After this, a beauty return of the Kickoff by Heinie Powers, a great run back of a punt by the same players and some hefty tackle rush ing by Graham Powers put Sewanee close to the line. Chattanooga held for downs, but again the punt was blocked and recovered by Kent on Chattanooga's six-yard line.
 It took four tries to punt it over, Barker barely easing the ball against the chalk mark on the fourth at tempt. Chattanooga's chief assent on offense, the forward pass, was use less as the players were unable to hold the wet ball and forced to re- sort to tackle rushing they could make littte progress. Captain Cate came into the game In spite of his injury, but could do little good other than punt superbly, while Gray, the new fullback, was the leading asset on attack.

ATLANTA, Ga, Nov. 3.--Alabama and Georgia Tech battled to noth- ing nothing tie here this afternoon, playing in a cold drizzle on sodden field. Reeves vain effort to kick field goal from Alabamas +5yard line in the third period marked the nearest approach to score, although on three occasions Tech advanced the ball to within a few strides of the Alabama goal only to be easily turned away.
 With the exception of three short runs, the longest of which was for IT yards, by Alabama, the game was de- void of features, Both teams punted often, without appreciable advantage, Tech tried the only forward pass of the game and 1t fell harmlessly.
 The Yellow Jackets far outdis- tanced the Alabamians in yardage from scrimmage, but their first downs came mainly in middle ground. Albright Tech left half, entered the game in the second period and gained IS yards on two attempts. Wycoff carried the ball TO yards to the 5-yard line, but the visitors stopped the attack on their own 3-yard line, bunting out of danger.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 3.-An in- furiated Pitt Panther fought des- perately on Franklin field today but could not surmount the one obstruct- ing touchdown that the University Of Pennsylvania football team had thrust in it's path, the final score be- ing Philadelphia 6. Pittsburg 0. A smashing, battering attack with Me Graw, Thomas and Hammer, Pennsyl- vania backs, furnishing the driving power. In the second period took the ball from the 35-yarG line over the goal. McGraw in a lunge off tackle carried it over.
 It was Pittsburg's first defeat In nine years by Pennsylvania, the lat ter having lost seven straight en- gagements and tied one.
 Pennsylvania was alert today de- spite some fumbles. On the other hand the visiting players, appearing here for the last time under the tutelage of Coach Glenn Warner. flashed brilliant football at times only to discount 1t at critical periods by unfortunate fumbles.
 Alertness on the part of Left Half Back Thomas in the second period converted what might have been only a scoreless tie into victory for Pennsylvania. Colonna, Pttsburg quarterback, took the ball from his 22-yard line around Pennsylvania s left end He had reeled off seven yarGs when Il Pennsylvania tackler flung himself at him. The ball bounced out of Colonna's grasp. Like flash Thomas leaped upon the ball which was in Pennsylvania's posses sion from then on.

SOUTHWESTERN IS VICTOR 40 TO z

MOBILE, Ala. Nov s.-(special Leased Wire Bad breaks. fumbles and Cagle of Southwestern uniyer- sity, defeated Spring Hill college at Maxon field 40 to yesterday after noon. From start to finish it was Cagle this and Cagle that. Goat" Hale, who made a record as a broken field runner some years ago when Mississippi college was in It's prime, was reported the south's fastest man, but a race between he and Cagle looked like the one between zev and Papyrus.
 Spring Hill seemed imbued with the same fault that hindered the high school squad-fumbling In the second quarter one of the Hill back field men muffed the ball and South western got 1t on Spring Hills 2s- yard line. Passes and end runs brought the ball to the one-yard line, from where Cagle carried 1t over.
 Picking the outstanding men in the game. four names would be used. They are: First choice. Cagle and E. McEvoy. Perron and Browne. When an extra yard was needed any of these would be equal to the task. or the four, however, Cagle. small, almost undersized. stood out. CaEle would slow and oftentimes come to dead stop before a man and then would dodge in another direction. Two bo-yard runs are credited to him.
