Several people in the city seem to
be under the impression that the

ture There was a picture made
from the play, an appealing picture
which enjoyed long run.
The play, cover The Hill To The
Poorh ouse' is the same as the pic
ture with the exception that there
was very little comedy in the picture
and in the play the serious scenes
are nicely blended with bright and
amusing comedy. Both the picture
and the play are founded on Will

been read and enjoyed by millions.
The play will be staged next

Airplane With Moving Wings
to Rise From Housetop

Intended for rising out OF narrowly
limited spaces or from the roofs OF
ordinary buildings, an airplane which
has wings that resemble paddle wheels
is being built by an inventor. These,
with forward motion, will carry the
machine up, down, ahead or back
ward, according to the designer, who
expects his craft to even stand still in
midair without changing the direction

power from an airplane engine, which
drives the propellers by means OF
chains.

.GREB TO DEFEND
TITLE FRIDAY IN
NEW YORK SCRAP
Pittsburgh BattIer to Meet
Johnny Wilson, Former
MiddIeweight Champ,
By United Netos

By United Ne1os
NEW YORK, Jan. 14,-An unadul-
terated fight champion, for the first
time this season. will defend his title
indoors when Harry Greb, the middle
weight regent. elects to take potshots
next Friday at the enormous nose OF
Johnny Wilson, from whom he won
the title last summer.
Both boxers are in-and-outers of
the most uncertain caiber. There are
times when each loads his punches
with tons Of Furnishing power; and
there are other times when they seem
to fight with their elbows. manacled
and invisible chains dragging their
feet.
When Wilson lost his title the story
was that his too speedy reduction to
make the 160-pound limit had stspped
his vitality. and that he had about
the zest Of a soggy buckwheat cake.
Wilson has, however, trained care
fully for this return fight, and fans
are expecting one of those bloody
soirees when the two biggest noses
in the midddleweight ranks become
rival targets. Greb, however. is given
bit more than an even chance to
emerge victorious by the more So
phisticated Of the dopestrs.

years. Pitching dominated the play
and most games were low-score affairs,
battles between the twirlers.
Play for run was the system that
most clubs adopted since the decid-
ing margin i'm a great many games
was a single marker.
- T always has seemed to me that
| playing for a run brought out
- more real baseball than trying
to get them In clusters The latter sys-
tenn calls for a slam-bang style in
which ability to hit them safe is the
sole object. Trying to get run calls
for ,the steal, the sacrifice as well as
the hit-and run. The element OF take
a chance. in an effort to get ont in
front, called for brainy baseball. In
those days base running was one of
the big features of the national pas
time.
Trying to steal base in the mod
ern game Is almost foOlhardy, since
a run means little or nothing. Now.
adays team doesn't feel safe with
four-run margin.
ABE RUTH, the lively bail, and
X the system OF getting runs in
LII cluster has changed the style
Of play considerably. The play OF
today is entirely different from the
policy Of twenty years ago. Perhaps
the standard Is just as high, but in
justice to the stars OF those days, and
they were real stars, I hardly would
say 1t was better.
