CATHEY ENTERS
SECOND DAY OF
ENDURANCE RUN
No Signs of Fatigue Show
AS Driver Nears 500
Mile Mark.

Lee Daredevil Cathey. chained
to the wheel Of a Chevrolet coach,
model 27, was nearing the 500 mile
mark at 2 clock this afternoon in
his 100 hour, nonstop automobile
drive in Imperial Valley. Cathey
showed little fatigue at the end of
the first 26 hours which started him
on the second lap of his long vigil.
Following the start of the test
from in front of the Roy II. Wo-
mack Chevrolet Agency on Main
street at noon yesterday, Cathey
drove to Calexieo and Mexicali. A
parade Of so Chevrolets, headed by
motorcycle police, was held in El
Centre at the star and at Calexico
a similar parade was staged.
At 6 O'Clock last night Cathey had
covered close to 200 miles. Impe-
visited by the stunt driver by this
time. Although he encountered some
bad roads during the afternoon, the
Chevrolet continued to move for.
ward at all times.
Cathey took time to explain the
manner in which he rcverses the
direction of car without coming to
a complete stop.
''It is easy when ear is equip.
ped with balloon tires and good
springs,o he said. "My car is al.
ready in reverse before I reach the
point where l begin the backward
movement. The play allowed by
good springs and balloon tires makes
it possible to keep the ear in for
ward movement and reverse it with
out coming to a complete stop.
Scientists have studied this angle
and they declare that in this manner
car does not come to a complete
stop.
A checkup on the gas showed that
Cathey was getting in the neighbor-
hood of % miles to the gallon. The
official figures, however, had not
been announced.
May Need Rough Spots -,
In taking on gas, Cathey refills
at station in Jacumba. He slows
the car down to three mile an hour
speed and the liquid is poured into
the tank from container being ear
ried behind the machine.
81 have been lucky thus far on
the trip" Cathey said at noon to-
day. q have not met any difficult
situations and though the road in
some places is a little rough every
thing has gone nicely. l may neod
those rough spots to keep me awake
near the end of the run.
Just who will win the guessing
contest being held in connection
with the event. is of course prob
lematical yet. While Cathey cover
ed nearly 800 miles in the. first ~
hours of the drive his speed in
driving may alter from Eow on.
There is nothing to govern his speed
He may travel at a three mile an
hour rate for a half hour and then
do 20 miles in the next so minutes.
The person making the guess,
nearest correct, in this contest will
receive $50 while the second best
guess will win $40 and the third S..

that composers String Quartet in r
fat, opus 1877 was placed first on the
program. 1t is a dignified and lofty
work. The intricacies of its contra
puntal effects. the elusive subtleties of
it's melodies are fascinating and were
most satisfyingly presented by the
Curtis group. There were moments
when the ensemble seemed to have the
fulsomeness and power of organ
voices. Especially. inspiring was the
second movement-adag.o ma non
troppo-when the viola and violoncello
sang a rich duet of pizzicato beneath
the lovely pattern for the violins and
then, with a hymn-like effect, the first
violin seemed a veritable soprano solo.
The ease with which the four inStru
ments made attack and varied shading
in unison was admirable.
Antonin Dvorak provided a particu-
larly happy vehicle for musical refieo-
ton of human Joy in his String Quar-
tet in F, opus &C." This music sets
the feet tapping. the voice humming
and generally emanates q spirit of
easy good will The Curtis String
Quartet members seemed to especially
enjoy playing the Dvorak work with
a. more seemingly carefree air than
that which prevailed during the more
austere Beethoven. There is the allur-
ing simplicity of negro melodies in
this music and also the fascinating
rhythms of the Bohemian music. 1t
proved most happy choice.-H. #.

This quartet of excellent soloists,
who come from Mary Louise Curtis
Boks Institute of Music in Philadel-

their respective instruments, seems to
have made marvellous progress since
the Initial concert here, over a year
ago. Although Mr.. F1esch and Mr..

art, there is a much finer co-ordina-

Ludwig Satz as Abe Potash is billed
over Robert Leonard, who portrays
NIawruss Perlmutter, but his really
fine Interpretation doesn't completely
submerge Mr.. Leonard by any means.
sSatz was convincing last night in all
but the occasional spots of staginess
which affected the whole cast. His
comedy was good, but his pathos was
excellent In this element, however,
Mr.. Satz was aideds probably. by Mon
tague Glass and Jules E. Goodman,
who wrote the sentimental contrast
tnto a bit of ridiculous comedy.
Mr.. Leonard did very well with his
difficult part of buffer for his little
partner. His evaporation seemed
genuine, and indeed it might well have
been when Mr.. SatZ was at his best III
his arguments.
Other roles include Jean McAdams
by the lovely Hope Sutherland, and
Hal Mason by Robert Williams, both
of whom have little to do and do it
moderately well. Babette Imerglick by
Annette Hoffman and Rose Potash by
Mathilde Cottrelly, who carry the fem
snine lead roles, and Hedges, butler,
by Robert Vivian, do fairly well.
PALACE-"A Little Journey"
A diversified and smooth-running
program, except for Interruptions
caused by persistent demands for
encores of various numbers, opened
this weeks bin at Loew's Palace
Theater yesterday.
There's something very fetching
about the overture. Tom Cannon has
arranged compositions by Grieg, Cad
man and Nevin in AN Ode to Dawn
and provided for a vast, fullstage
effect of passing clouds on the whole
length and breadth Of the curtain.
Outstanding numbers are AL and
Jack Rand, dancers. accompanying
Sid Hall and his Melody Masters.
These two chaps have feet. that are
post-graduates in the terpsichorean
art. They move in unison, stamp in
staccato and tapple with grace and
speed. Folks last night seemed well
pleased with this number. And al
most the same situation arose in the
matter of appreciation bestowed upon
Lillian Bernard and Flo Henrie, who
can sing and make one understand
what they're singing. When they
put QNGT I1eIIO, blueblIu anu Oln6E
songs and had given three bows, the
applause ran well into the Aesops
Fable, which followed.
"A Little Journey" Metro Goldwyn-
Mayer production, featuring Claire
Windsor and William Haines. is fair
enough to entertain for an hour or
so, but does not come up to the point
where telegraph companies should
get rich with wires sent home about
1t. The story runs along nicely
enough, but there's too much space
in film used to tell how easily
young girl can prefer a young man
to an older millionaire as a result OF
q transcontinental acquaintanceship.
Claire and William hold up the in
terest nicely and Harry Carey, well
remembered as a wild West idol some
time back, handles a, supporting role
with neatness and precision.
