WARDMAN PARK-"Othello." !"

Othello came down three centuries
from Shakespeare's pen last night, to
live again in the person Of Emil jan

Wardman Park Theater. The Motion
Picture Guild will present this Gerw
man-made film all this week, to give
audiences an opportunity to witness
the famous tragedy of the Bard Of
Avon. as UFA's production, under the
direction of Dimitri BuchowetZki, the
Russian, recreated 1t in Berlin.
Jannings is pre-eminently the out
standing actor in the picturiZed

the first appearance Of the Moor to

Jannings carries along the sustained

Budapest, in the role of Desdemona,
Othello's maligned wife, plays her
part well, although appearing as
somewhat retiring.
Perhaps the most unusual Of the
foreign actors in the production Is
Werner kraus, as the villain Iago.
Plump and pop-eyed, with bizarre hair
and mustaches, his scurryings hither

give one a reminder of the foreign
make of the film. Kraus. however,

Lincoln School Champion Take Flying start Toward Winning
 Title for City.

Edward Liardi, the Lincoln school champion, won four interschooI matches and an exhibition game in the HcraId-Junior Achievement mar ble shooting contest at Walnut Hill park this morning and gives real promise of being a stiff contender for tho city championship.
 In the first game he defeated An thony Rakowski, the Bartlett school champion, with ease. He next took Howard Warner, St, Nary'S cham pion, into camp, and then because the other contcndcrs had not yet ar rived and the large gallery wanted to see some action he was matched in an exhibition game with John Zalcski, a brother of the 1925 cham pion. and again Iiardi was the vic tor. but by small margin.
 Ernest Davis, the colored cham pion of the Rockwell school thcr arrived on tho scene and after ob- taining q few "mies" from the ring Liardi crept ahead again and soon had the total of seven necessary to win. Joseph Zigas of the Smith i school was also eliminated in a short struggle.
 The games at St. Joseph's schooj were not played yesterday afternoon and will be announced later.
