CITY EAGER TO AVOID RESORT
 TOCOURT ACTION
Commission Up In Air After Conference On
 ViaductS

Tt is the desire of the municipality of Birmingham to avoid court action in regard to improving street traffic conditions at those street intersections where Railroad avenue and the paral- leling railway lines bisect the city, mak- ing the grade crossings from Fourteenth to Twentieth streets" Commissioner W. E.. Dickson stated Wednesday, but if the developments reach a point where Birmingham is definitely called on to bear half of the expenses of under passes or viaducts, then the matter will reach the cqfrts."
 Keen disappointment was evident in the city hall Wednesday as result of the conference held Tuesday with the representatives of the Southern and Mutual rejection of propositions ad vanced was the real outcome of the meeting. The roads called on the city to pay half of the costs, the Southern not even expressing willingness for that expense division. The city expressed itself as unable to meet such a financial burden.
 Adding to the gloom prevailing the commission following the meeting, 1t developed Wednesday that the roads had informed the city also that even should the city acquiesce in bearing half the expense, the roads were not in a position to finance the project in its entirety and let the city settle it's part of the account in deferred payments, as was the case in construction of the via duets already built.
 Something bordering on consternatio was expressed by commissioners follow ing the Tuesday conference when the roads rejected the engineering designs for the underpasses. The plans are said to have been compiled with the coop eration of engineers representing the in- ierested roads, examined by them. | worked on with them and were supposed 10 be fully known to the representatives of the railroads.
 IL was with a feeling akin to exas peration that the city officials took the matter again under consideration after being requested to work out something different.
 President D. F. McLendon was ill when he attended the conference. He did not take q very active part in the discussions, the city officials choosing Commissioner Dickson as their spokes- man. Wednesday found the commits sion president ill at home. Reports at the city hall stated he was q victim of flu.
 Wednesday the group of railway of ficials had scattered, after having ex pressed willingness to call again when the city has something more to discuss with them.

NEW LYRIC BILL
 OPENS THURSDAY
Vaudeville Acts And Pic ture Program Change
 For Week-End

With novelty as its keynote and the highest class of vaudeville entertain ment as it's aim, the new bill opening at the Lyric this afternoon is said to be exceptional. A little bit of every thing, and large part of it new and unusual, will be found in the five acts of big-time Keith vaudeville which make up the interesting program.
 The headliner is the offering of Claudia Coleman and her Feminine Types" Miss Coleman is not an i'm personator, but delineator of all sorts of girls.
 The big added attraction brings Bar rie Oliver, the Mississippi boy who made such hit last year, and his own company, presenting '"The Dixie Boy," with his Mississippi Misses. It is de- scribed as combination of melody and beauty that has never been surpassed.
 The special feature is novelty One of the Finest" with Henry Re- gal and Company. This is a gymnastic travesty, that is declared to be unusual. Mir. Regal is assisted by Ida Gerber and o. Henry

Jefferson Announces The Alarm Clock As Open
 ing Presentation

The all-star Jefferson players, who are rehearsing their initial production ."The Alarm Clock" by Avery Hop wood, which will be presented next week, are enthused over the prospects for the coming spring and summer sea- son, and the individual members of the ater. Hundreds of theater-goers have already ordered seats for the entire sea- son, an dthe individual members of the company have been invited to various clubs and social functions.
 Russell Fillmore, who won his lau- rels on Broadway, is a Birmingham boy and naturally is proud of the fact that his home city is supporting this project. Kathleen Comengys, the New York star, who is the leading feminine light of the company, states that she feels as thoroughly at home in Birming- ham as New York. II know 1 will enjoy my stay here very much," and her smiled vouched for her statement. T am in hopes that I'll have time to ride horseback and play bit of golf" You see Miss Comegys is an outdoor woman-and loves all sorts of sports.
 John Glynn McFarlane, styled America's greatest leading man, who will share honors with Miss Comegys, is also enthusiastic over the Birming- ham engagement. He played three roles here last season, the lead in "Why Men Leave Home," The Bad Man." and "Lombardi, Ltd.," and unfortunate ly was called to Europe, but this time he is coming to stay and will be seen in many of the latest stage produc- tions which have won the approval of the Broadway critics and theater-goers.
 One of the pleasant features of the Jefferson players is the fact that every one can afford to see the performances as the prices have been sealed with the expectation of capacity houses and rare entertainment value is the result.

FLOWING GOLD MUCH
 HERALDED PHOTOPLAY

Rex Beach, whose novels of the rug ged outdoors are eagerly read by mil lions, due to the virile creations of his fertile brain, is the author of Flowing Gold,' a First National picture, pro- duced by Richard Walton Fully, which comes to the Trianon next week. It is enacted by an excellent cast, which includes Milton Stills, Anna o. Nils son, Alice Calhoun, Josephine Crowell Charles Sellon, Bert Woodruff, Sissy Fitzgerald and John Roche.
 Beach has written many stroies of stirring adventure, but none with more action and suspense than "Flowing Gold" in the estimation of unbiased critics. Among the thrilling episodes in the picture are the burning of an oil well, cloudburst, which spreads the burning liquid over the country side, destroying all property in it's path, and several breath-taking fights among the heroic characters in the
The Birmingham age-herald., 1924-03-20

story. And there is a romance, with Milton Stills and Anna Q. Nilsson as the lovers.
 Milton Stills and Anna Q. Nilsson are seen in the leading roles of Calvin Gray and Allegheny Briskow, supported by Alice Calhoun, Josephine Crowell, Charles Sellon, Bert Woodruff, Cissy Fitzgerald and John Roche.
 Author Beach has chosen for the set ting of his story a small town in Texas which had been thrown into furore by the discovery of oil in the vicinity. It immediately becomes the Mecca of fortune seekers and adventurers of every kind, among whom are Calvin Gray and Henry Nelson. Nelson, a former army officer, had gone there to become rich, Gray to avenge himself on Nelson because the latter had been instrumen- tai in getting him dishonorably dis charged from the army.

Not only did it play two years at the Ambassador threatFe, New York, but it had the further distinction of being the only play ever to be performed by two companies simultaneously in the metropolis. With score consisting of Franz Shubert's loveliest melodies, de- licately woven into q story of his life, Blossom Time" represents the most distinguished musical offering of many years.
 It will be welcome news to their hosts of local admirers to learn that the same fine cast seen here on two prior occasions will reappear. Greek Evans and Margaret Merle will be seen and heard ill their original roles. Among others are Robert Lee Allen, Robert
