Of weeks. have they?

That's the funny part OF it--you

Surely you want to stand on your

a lot, and you'll find people will

Shine the shoes you wear, and
you'll find it lot easier to stand on
the feet that are in them.

THERE is LOT or
BULL AT THE LYRIC

What will they do next on the
variety stage2 Thought we were
seeing things at the Lyric this week,
but 1t was true. Think Of It, a live
"rarin" bull out front and a COW
puncher trying to ride him. Bet
there were quite O. few who got
ready to run.
This gentle entertainer makes his
appearance in the act Of "Rodeo
Revue" at the Lyric. The company
devote most OF its time to roping,
riding several horses, and, on the
side making all the noise possible.
Trovato makes so many friends
with his fiddle that I'm sure he
doesn't know what to do with all of
them. His favorite trick is to set
the theater orchestra going on some
simple rhythmic thing while he
amuses himself by playing snatch
OF just about everything in the linz
OF old and well remembered
melodies. AS I heard someone say.
Frankly now, He's good" And
second 1t.
Another big bit Of the bill was the
Harrison Sisters. Two girls and
two banjoes make a me combination
when the trick is turned right, and
these two are some little turner's"
They held up the show for few
minutes and would have stayed long
er, but the rest had to have their
turn. The girls are in blackface and
play the banjo and mandolin. Their
best thing was the impersonation OF
a couple OF Southern Negro lads
singing harmony accompanied by
their banjoes.
The Medina Trio, two men and
a woman, do all their stuff while
perched high up on ladders. Would
imagine it a hard job to play a vio-
lin while in this position.
Frisco Bound" is a short revue
of four women and two men. Fea-
tured are all kinds of dancing and
some harmony by two OF the girls.
Mcdonald and Cakes" are song
and dance team arid do some fancy
stepping. Their best was an eccen-
trio dance done as the finale to the
act.
Radio Fun" is an attempt to give
some spectacular exhibitions of what
cap be done with high frequency
currents.
Bill includes movie comedy and
news reel.

ADDED STATE

IMl reporter Of the Indiana SUI
preme and Appellate
Courts, with a delegation of club
women recently conferred with
President Coolidge in the interest
of a uniform Federal marriage
and divorce law.
The club women are much dis
turbed by conflicting marriage and
divorce laws now in force in va
rious States. They argue forty
eight sets of lawmakers have made
Cupid nervous wreck.
In some States divorce is scarce

ulously easy. Consequently two
persons legally married in one

cause of that marriage If they
crossed the boundary into another

in at the moment.

doubtless the diversity Of codes is
confusing. But persons need not
become so entangled that they
don't know whether they are legal

They don't have to go to Reno for
divorce or to Tia Juana for further
matrimonial adventures II they
don't want to.
They can marry, live happily
and die peacefully without. COM

The added state of matrimony
is due to the diversity OF State
codes than to tho added state Of
the parties married.

ARNOLD HORWEEN :
 NAMED AS COACH
Star Football Player to Succeed
 Robert T. Fisher as Mentor

Cambridge, Mass, March II R-- Arnold Horwecn of Chicago, Star on Harvard's unbcatcn teams of '9lH and 1920, has been appointed head coach of Harvard football. William J. Bingham. newly op- pointed director of athletics made the announcement last night on be- half of the committee on the rcgula- ton of athletic sports.
 Horween will succeed Robert r. Fisher, who retired at the end ot the 1925 season after having been prevailed upon to accept the post when he expressed the wish 10 re- sign at the conclusion of the 1924 schedule.
 The new coach entered Harvard college in 1916 but was member of the class of '21. He early dis , tinguished himself with the fresh man team, and in 1917 explained the informal wartime eleven in 1918. but in the following year he enlist cd l in the navy. ".
 In 1919, with the revival of foot 1 ball at Harvard, he played fullhack and explained the team from. that position in 1920. Tn the Yale game of that year he helped to defeat the Blue to 0, by kicking one of the three field goals.
 In the game with Oregon at Pasa- dena, Jan. 1, 1920, Horwecn play ed in the bacFfield and helped to win the game by kicking the deciding field goal.
 Since leaving college Horwecn has helped to coach the Chicago Cardi- nals. a professional football team. He has made long study of western football methods, and besides is thoroughly versed in the Haughton system under which he was trained while at Harvard.
 The selection of new head coach of Harvard football has been fraught with complication since the resisna- ton last fall. The climax was rcach- cd last month when the entire gradu- ate football advisory committee. headed by Fisher, resigned because of inability 10 agree with Captain elect Clement Coady. and the com uittce on regulation of athletic ports, on Fishers successor,
 The final disagreement did not center on one man, as both con- Imittees had agreed on Charlie Buell., star quarterback under tho late Per cy D. Haughton. But Buell. declined lthc appointn1 ent, as did Leo Leary. iend coach, and Major Charles T., Daily. line coach.
 From then on. fifteen or twenty men were considered by the commit tees, but no agreement could be reached.

 Both Striblng and Tunncy de- .clarcd that they were in good con- idition for the fight, Stribling in workout showed remarkably fast footwork and his hitting was hard CT than ever before. The Georgia boxer has developed q tremendous punch in his left and his right has always been strong.
