heavier, the line charges faster and
with more force and they give the
runner better protection. Lancaster
has no one who can kick like Row
den but, on the other hand, Fennimore
has no one who can catch and run
back kicks as Edwards does.
Training Hints
Both coaches have a lot to do be-
fore either has a smooth running ma
chine but the material is there and
all it needs is polishing. Lancaster
needs most better field generalship
and smoother running off of its plays
while Fennimore needs most to de-
velOp some sort of interference for
its runners.
Fennimore plays return game here
on Armistice day and it will be in
tereSting to see which team will have
developed most during the interval.
The tie of last Friday will give added
interest to the next game which should
be one well worth going miles to see,

''MISMATES" NEW
DRAMA FOR
BELASCO

Myron C. Fagan's brand.new
drama. ''Mismates," will open for
a weeks engagement at the Shu-
bert Belasco on Monday, March 80.
Mr.. Pagan does not believe in a
system of exploiting any one par
ticular star in any of his plays.
So far in his productions of For
the Defense" Thumbs Down,
1.-TWO Strangers from Nowhere"
and THE Siren" he has cast his
plays on the premise that a par
ticularly good acting company
will give a much more intelligent
Interpretation Of a play than the
projection of a star surrounded by
a mediocre cast. To that end he
and his associates in the produc-
ton Of "Mismates" have taken
over a month in which to get to-
gether a cast of particularly
sterling worth and a company
which is very we'll known to all
theatergoers. Minor Watson, who
scored an individual success this
season in New York in Two Mar
ried Men,; C. Henry Gordon, who
will be remembered for his work
In "Mr. Pitt; Beatrice Nichols,
Mary Daniel, Fred Tiden, who
created the role opposite Holbrook
Blinn, in "The Bad Man" and
played it for two consecutive
years: Fred Howard, Leona F1o-
garth, Joan Shaw, Edward Power,
Harold Salter and Master Edwin
Mills.

Chapel. This we'll balanced play,
with it's deep human appeal, its
sharp contrast in character. and
its swift movement towards

chance to it's splendid cast. The
Mot unfolds a bitter and stiff
conflict between woman who
