PLAY THREE GAMES ON
 CHURCH LEAGUE PROGRAM
Pitchers Battle Looms as st. Mats Are Scheduled to Play South
 Church

Three games are on the program opens it's season this evening at Willow Brook park. A pitchers battle appears imminent on Dta- mond No. l, when the champion St. Matthews German Lutherans will begin the defense of their title by playing the South Congregation al team. Billy Preisser, the leagues leading pitcher last year, will prob ably work for the St. Matts, while Wilton Mercy is expected to be on Ahe slab for the South church. Each Of these men has scored at least one decision over the other in the past, and. if they get their antici- pated fielding support, the game should be a corker. Both teams have many veterans of last year in addition to newly developing ma terial.
 Two games will be played on the "grass diamonds" The Stanley Memorial nine will face the First iutherans. both competitors having finished in the first division last summer and having veterans ound which to build their 1929 teams. Bill Freaen whose ali-time record is probably the best of any church league pitcher, will in all likelihood do the tossing for the Swades. but the Stanmor choice is uncertain.
 The Swedish Bethany and Trinity Methodist teams will iattle in the third game. Both have been talk ing of reorganization and their starting lineNps are unknown, but they were evenly matched in 1928 and good game is forecast for this evening.
 Games are scheduled to begin ct 6.45 o'clock.

THRILLING WESTERN
is NOW AT PALACE

Ken Maynard has gone beyond
being a Western motion picture
star. After seeing his latest, THE
Land Beyond The Law" the First
National feature which opened at
the Palace Theatre last night, one
wonders how it is possible for
Maynard to avoid repetition of the
same riding tricks, the same shoot
ing stunts and other sensations he
has employed in past vehicles.
"The Land Beyond The Law
proves that Maynard is to stay
with us as star for many years
to come. The story by Marion
Jackson provides him with oppor-
tunities to put his white steed
Tarzan, through new PAGES, new
stunts, to make animal lovers and
casual onlookers alike, gasp.
In his latest picture, we find Ken
as a United States Deputy Mar
shall, appointed to bring peace to
that portion of New Mexico, which
shortly before it's admission to
the Union, was over-run by ruth
less cattle barons.
1.-THE Land Beyond the Law"
should be classed as an "epic," for
it brings in actual historic facts,
making them doubly interesting
through the addition of romance
and action.
Dorothy Dwan is Maynard's lead
ing, lady in ''The Land Beyond
the Law and holds up the stand
ard set by the cast.
