as "a loose thinker, utterly unfit

Both books were named in re.

of New York, who barred them
from the schools of that city on the
ground that they sought to dis.
seininate anti-American and pro

Henley's principal objection to
the works was in line with the com.
plant made to Mayor Hylan. He
declared that the ride of Paul
Revere is omitted, and that the bat.
tie of Lexington and Concord is
treated of in but forty-tWo words. .
He further alleged that the works

Chesapeake Beach.

Chesapeake Beach, popular bay
side resort, staged grand finale
to it's Shrine week celebration
over the weekend Several thou
sand visitors made the trip by
train and there were several thou
sand autoists. The gay board
walk, built 800 feet from shore,
was crowded all day with pretty
girls.
Fishing continues one Of the
most popular diversions. Scores
tried their luck from the new
half-mile steamer pier, while
others ventured by boat further
out into the bay. Salt water
bathing held it's devotees. Ralph
Garren's celebrated jazz boys
served up hot music for free
dancing on the over-the-water
pavilion. The Amusement Fairy
land has a distinct lure, in that
all of it's features-the merry-go
round, the derby racer, the paddle
booths, the bowling alleys, the
billiard parlors, the fishing ponds,
and the refreshment booths-are
picturesquely situated over the
waves.

CRANDALL'S-
Tom Meighan.

Thomas Meighan is the pic
tured star at Crandall's Theater
the first three days of this week in
Paramount's perturbation of Rex
Beach's novel, THE Meier Do
Well" That is about all that
need be said regarding the excel
lence Of the entertainment avail
able at Ninth and e streets, al
though it is somehow difficult
to imagine Meighan, intelligent,
thoughtful, convincing star, as a
good-for-nothing. His total natu-
ralness in the part of the Beach
creation may possibly be attrib-
uted to the fact that Kirk An
thony, at heart, was not a ''ne'er
do WELL" He was a man who
needed only the inspiration Of
trust and the faith of his fellows
to rise to the top. When Chi
quita, belle of the sun-kissed
tropics, saw in him the ideal of
her girlish dreams and communal
Gated something of that feeling
to him, obstacles were swept
aside as if nonexistant and it was
not long until Anthony had risen
from the humble position of con-
ductor on local train to a po-
sition of executive authority. And
from that it was an easy transit
ton to his rightful place in New
York's exclusive social circles.
Meighan scores another d.
stinctly notable personal triumph
in the title role of this exotic
photoplay which was filmed in

'@WESTBOUND'
SHOWN AT
CENTRAL

A fine bill is on view the first
four days of the current week
at Crandalls Central Theater
The major offering is Emory
Johnson's thrilling perturbation
of Emile Johnson's romance OF
railroading, 1.-THE Westbound
Limited" in which the stellar
roles are played by Ralph Lewis,
Johnny Harron, Ella Hall and
Claire Mcdowell, supported by
numerous and highly proficient
ensemble. The comedy is a new
laughmaker never before shown
in Washington, in which Monte
Banks demonstrates all of the
ridiculous things that can happen
at "Six A. M" The bill also
embraces a new issue of the
Kinograrns and tuneful pipe or
gan recital by w. e. Thompson,
who also accords the major
feature excellent musical accom-
paniment.
1.-The Westbound Limited"
brings to the screen a closeup
of the life of the engineer who
has dedicated his life to rolling
a laundering locomotive over
countless miles of track, just as
1.-THE Third Alarm" by the same
producer, extolled the gallantry
of the firefighters. Bill Buckley
is an engineSnan who loves his
job and who has passed on to
his son the same passion for the
rails. The president of the line
is a lifelong friend who, despite
his superior position, is still lone
of the boys" His private secre-
tary, however, is a thorough
renegade who vents his spleen
upon both families when Johnny
Buckley engages the interest of
Esther Miller, the presidents
daughter. With criminal ac-
complete he attempts to cause a
head-on collision between Buck
ley's train and the one coming
in the opposite direction with
President Miller and his wife or
board. Johnny thwarts the plan
by a wild cross-country dash on
a horse, which affords the biggest
thrill Of the many occasioned by
the extraordinary close-ups Of
speeding trains, racing automo-
biles and other break-neck
agencies.

"E XCITERS''
PROVES A
TREAT

To the blase picturegoer, Injured
by long years of patient film-gaz-
ing to the Establishments of the
enema, there are several sure-f1re
tests of interest-containing ele-
ment of a motion picture. One of
these consists of a quite simple
formula: if you fidget IN your
seat and glance frequently at the
clock that usually adorns the
proscenium, the film in question
is not so good. Conversely, II
during the entire showing of the
picture you remain fixed in prac-
tically one attitude, with never so
much as thought of the passing
of time-then, and then. only, can
that picture be said to be packed
full of entertainment. Into the
latter category THE Exciters,"
at the Columbia this week, I'M
Questionably falls.
From beginning to end 1.-THE
Exciters" hits on all twelve for an
average speed of ninety miles an
hour. Photography, cast, tale,
plot, direction, settings-all fault
less. all combined into a polished
product that should keep you glued
to your chair until the final fade
out.
THE EXciters" in it's celluloid
version is adapted from the legiti-
mate hit of the same name which
Washington saw earlier in the sea-
son with Tallulah Bankhead in
the title role of Veronica Rand.
Bebe Daniels has the part in the
film, and an excellent piece of
work she does! Vivacious, coquet-
ish, charming, beautifully costum-
ed--a fit type for such a character
ization and compliment to the
casting director who gave her the
role. Nor is the dashing and more
handsome-than-ever Tony Moreno
to be denied the praise that is
rightfully his. He has congenial
part-that of Pierre Martel-that
fits him like the proverbial glove.
Diana Allen, Cyril Ring and Burr
Mcintosh are also in the cast, as
is Ifvil Anderson, a newcomer who
as stranger Louis" gives a most
repulsive and clever portrayal.
To tell the story here would be
to spoil it for prospective play
goers. Let strong recommends

GRIFFITH FILM
REVIVED AT
POLLS

The Birth of a Nation" D..
w. Griffith's greatest picture,
seems to have lost none of it's
charm for Washingtonians, for
its revival for a weeks engage
ment at Polls, beginning yester-
day, brought out a large number
of Griffith enthusiasts who con-
tinue to regard this, the first big
Griffith picture, as the greatest
of all Griffith films.
Based on Thomas Dixon, jr. 8,
novel, THE C1ansman," THE
Birth of a Nation" depicts a STIR
ring and vivid romantic melo-
drama against a background Of
reconstruction days in the South,
when the war had left land and
people impoverished and at the
mercy of INSCRIPTIONS politicians
and a suddenly-freed slave popu-
lation.
The story is graced with any
number Of big moments, chief
among which is the ride of the
clansmen to save the heroine.
This is the picture in which Hen
ry Walthall, enacting the part of
a Southern colonel, contributes
what as unquestionably his great
est role to the screen, while Lillian
Gish offers likewise one of her
greatest enactments.
The cast, at this late date,
reads like veritable Who's

Alabama And Georgia Close Out Season For Mont
 g0mery

MONTG OMERY, Ala. Nov. 23.- Alabama's capital sees it's final foot ball clash of the season Saturday afternoon when the Georgia Buli- dogs and the Alabama Crimson meet on the local greensward.
 Ancient foes, the Bulldogs and Tide have always fought their fiercest against the other--a struggle that this year may mean further settlement of a southern champion ship adds lustre to the occasion.
 Unbeaten Alabama, riding high the crest of championship aspiration admittedly faces the acid test; Georgia's record of a single south ern defeat-that at the hands of Vanderbilt, making them a formi- dable foe. Ability of the Crimson to turn back Georgia Saturday and Florida Thanksgiving would give them strong claim on the title, sport experts agree.
 Alabama, heralded as the team without an offense' for time this season, has reversed the title by the crushing defeats they have recently administered. to the opposition eley- ems.
 Both teams are expected to enter the game Saturday with their line ups in fine fettle, each starting the best in store In an effort to cap ture the coveted game; Georgia real izing that a win might throw them back into the running, and Alabama aware that a loss would practically eliminate them from the chase.

NEW YORK, Nov 23.-The collapse of the Philadelphia Athletics who slumped and never got into thelr stride again after giving the Yankees a fight for first place early last season, was partly due to the Ku Klux Klan influences, according to story published Friday by the New York Evening Telegram.
