FERTILIZER EXPERIMENT.
Five hundred pounds of fertilizer,
to cost 81 a hundred, were requested
Of the city park department for expert
mental purposes on the course Friday
morning. Charles Noyak. greenskeeper
at the San Antonio Country Club,
states this special brand of fertilizer
will bring results in a weeks time.
1t may be that fertilizing within
20 yards Of each green. to afford turf
of approach shots, and over an area
between 200 and 275 yards of each
tee. to provide turf for second shots,
will solve the problem for the win
ter. 1t is the wrong time of the year,
say experts, for extensive working

IEL PASO TOO FAR
AWAY FOR LEAGUE

No chance.
That's the verdict of most of the
Texas Baseball League club owners on
Ell Paso's bid for admission to the
league, officially on file with Presi-
dent Doak Roberts at Dallas.
Beaumonts impending withdrawal
because of repeated financial failures
has revived talk of Ell Paso's entrance
but practically every club owner who
visited San Antonio was consulted on
this possibility and none saw chance
for the city in the far western cor
ner of the state. Travel problems
stand in the way.

Subbing at second base since Mana
ger Eddie Collins was injured, was
shifted to sbortstop, giving Ike Davis
much-needed rest. Bill socked two
hits, one double. and played the po'
sition like a regular.
Ted Blankenship of the White Sox,
let the Browns down with five hits
and won close game in the battle
for third place honors.
Ray SChalk, veteran catcher of the
White Sox, broke out as a base-stealer
in the first game against the Browns
by swiping three bases. He had stolen
only five bases since the season
opened.
Every man on the Pittsburgh Club
got at least one hit against Sherdel of
the Cards. Wright, brilliant shortstop
of the Pirates, led his club with three
singles and also did some fancy field
ing, participating in two double plays,
that cut down rallies.
Rogers Hornsby, most prominent
candidate for the home run throne
abdicated by Babe Ruth, went hitless
again. The Cardinal leaders safetics
have been coming in punches lately.

since he has been balancing off profit

Mr.. Clegg said the committee had

Ellinor GYMS name is in itself

ing interest in connection with a
photoplay, but when it is attached
to title as significant as How To

coming to the Apollo next week
movie fans may look forward with
confidence to a picture little out
of the ordinary.
The character in How To Edu-

action centers around Mabel Todd.
aud energetic young woman, and
her husband Ernest, who has made
such failure of the life insurance
business that they are about to lose
their, home through foreclosure be-
cause of delinquency in payments.
In despair Todd takes a tip from
successful friend and starts train
ing Mabel to Help him.
+ Things move along smoothly un-
til Ernest permits jealousy to over
come good judgement. What friend

she makes up in Irritation. The
situations thus arising, are, as can
well be imagined, fraught with
humorous possibilities. Monte Blue,

termination.
And that is the truth and the In
side on the orchestral situation in
this city. No one expects such an
enterprise to make money, as the ex-
pense is too heavy for the talent
alone, not including the rent of the
theater and numerous other vital ex-
| penses.
1t simply means that Indianapolis
must buy more season tickets for
the orchestral concerts.
Personally, think Mrs. Talbot is
doing a great something in giving
this city orchestral concerts. Such

GREAT FOREIGN MOVIE
OPENS SUNDAY AT CIRCLE

The Circle Theater's attraction
beginning Sunday will be the new
film version of the 'Sienxiwicz novel,
Quo Vadis,7 with Emil Jannings in
the role of Nero.
The picture was staged in Rome
on the actual scenes Of Neros tyra-
MES during his cruel and inhuman
reign in the middle Of the first cen
fury. Permission was obtained from
the Italian government to make tenn
porary rehabilitation Of the most IA
nous ruins of Rome-the Circus
Maximum, the Palatine and others
lin order to obtain proper realism
for this picture.
- Quo Vadis" is said to be replete
with thrills, picturing wildly the
burning of Rome by Nero, as an
inspiration for his stupid verses; the
burning of Christian martyrs at
stake, and the hurting Of other help
less Christians into the arena to be
destroyed by lions.
These latter cruelties were prac-
ticed in order to conceal from the
people the fact that it was not the
Christians, but Nero himself, who
was responsible for the burning of
Rome.
Ursus, giant slave of Lygia, the
Christian maid, is shown in battle
with a savage bull, to whose back
Nero had caused the girl to be
bound when she refused to give up
her Christian faith or accept his at
tentions.

emperor are contrasted with the
