Wills, negro heavyweight challeng-
er, is ready to fight Jack Dempsey

that he and Wills were ready to
jump at any reasonable offer made
by reliable promoter.
So many offers have been made
for the Dempsey Wills fight in vari-

inclined to laugh off the report.

feud that has existed for almost a

Ever since Taylor came from be-

to beat him and beat him fair.
When the pair of little "whirl-

he would have his chance, but the
fight did not 90 two rounds. Tay-

bad a chance to open up.
Taylor started clamoring for an
other chance right after the fight.
Taylor likewise approved the idea
of finishing their difficulties in a
more orderly way. Consequently
both fighters will have their wishes
fulfilled tonight.
Mcl.arnin has grown since the
first meeting Of the two fighters
and will probably have at least a
four round advantage over Taylor.
He has also gained great deal of
confidence in himself by dcafcat

IS URGED FOR
 CALIFORNIA RlNG-TAILED CAT

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. g. (P)-A cat with "an almost human facial ex- pression of kindliness," which after all is not cat but belongs more properly to the racoon family, is in danger of extinction unless given the protection of legislation banning trap- ping.
 Even Alice, blase as she must have become in her trip through Wonder land, might consider this creature somewhat unusual for, again quoting the Nature Park, the little animal has a diet ranging from mice, lizards and gophers to berries, fruit and insects.
 Known variously from Costa Rica on the south to Oregon on the north as California Ring tailed Cat, Mines's cat, Cooncat, Band-tailed cat, or, in Mexico, "Cacomixtle" it can easily be tanned ands made an affectionate house pet. It has striking black and white fur, "eyes large, mild and expressive" and is possessed of a na- ture bold and inquisitive."
 In national parks they are protect ed but elsewhere they are subject to trapping anG are decreasing in num- Der so rapidly that they are likely to disappear entirely unless shield ed by the law, say those in charge of the Sequoia nature service.

This Author Can't Kick
 On Way Play Was Filmed

For once the author can't kick on the way his play was expanded by the scenarist for the screen, nor on the ways in which the producer wan dered from the original. This once is in Excuse Me-" the new Metro Goldwyn-Mayer picture which comes to the Liberty Theater tonight.
 Excuse Me" will be remembered as the successful stage farce written by Rupert Hughes. The screen yer sion was also written by Rupert Hugh es, and the screen production was made by Rupert Hughes. It's Ru- pert Hughes affair all the way thru, and many of his admirers think it's the best thing he has done The story concerns the amusing adventures of a night in a Pullman car.
 The heroine, a delightfully."- femin- inc society debutante, is played by Norma Shearer. The hero is young naval officer, portrayed by Conrad Ma gel. The famous Pullman porter role was intrusted to Walter Hiers, and the fascinating French girl, Francine, is played by Renee Adoree Bert Roach, as the travelling salesman, leaves much comedy in his wake, and William V. Mong, as the meek minis ter, is importantly featured.
 Excuse Me" was directed by Ali Goulding.

SCREEN DARK HALF TIME
 PICTURE IS BEING SHOWN

NEW YORK, Feb. g. P)-Charles Van Singer, who has photographed many film plays, has ascertained the screen is dark nearly half the time a picture is being shown, but the eye of the camera is so fast the average spectator never notices the darkness.
 Not satisfied with this knowledge, he has estimated that in Lady Win dermere's Fan," the last photoplay he filmed, 100000 pictures" are thrown on the screen and that each of these is seen three times.
 Sounds impossible?" he asked. Well, here's how it is: There are sixteen pictures in every foot of film. The photoplay is approximately 7,50O feet long. That's not so hard to fig ure out
 "One has to be bit mechanically inclined to understand why you see each picture three times. In front of the lens on the projection machine is a revolving disk. This disk is divided into six parts, there being three black sections through which the light is allowed to travel to the screen.
 By means of an intricate synchron- izing device, this disk revolves once each time one of the minute pictures stops before the opening. There fore, each picture is shown 3 times before it passes on and the next takes it's place. Of course, all this happens too fast for the eye to dis cern-but it happens, anyway.
 Darkness of the screen during nearly half the time the play is be- ing shown is caused by the black sections of the disk being smaller than the solid portions.

PHOTOGRAPHED ETIQUETTE TAUGHT BY MEANS OF

 A committee composed of twenty leading educators will adopt stand ards of social etiquette which they believe should be taught the public and which they consider has been somewhat neglected in Japan because the emphasis of education has been placed on family rank rather than upon social contacts.
