PALACE-William Haines in
"SpeedWay,"

william Haines will burn up the
track this week at Loew's Palace in his
Metro-G -Goldwyn-Mayer picture Speed
way" The picture is built around the
500-mile Indianapolis grind, and its
supporting cast includes Anita Page,
Ernest Terrence, Karl Dane and Polly
Moran.
Haines represents smart-aleck,
cocksure assistant driver to Mac, a vet
eran of the track who is yet to win a
first place. Mac has taught the boy
all he knows about motors. Kenny, a
scheming fellow racer, takes advantage
of q series of incidents to secure Bill
as his driver. but only for the purpose
of getting Bill to properly tune the
motor On the day of the race Kenny
calmly tells Bill he has merely used
him and that he will drive his own car.
Mac, in the meantime warned by the
doctor that a long stay at the wheel
will seriously affect his heart, sends
his other mechanic into the race. Bills
sweetheart tells Bill what fool he has
been and how he has broken Macs
heart, the man who had taken him
into his own home and treated him
like son. The girl asks Mac to let
Bill finish the race, and Bill seated at
the wheel is able to catch up with
Kenny and finally pass him. When he
is certain that he will win he pretends
to be injured and makes Mac finish the
race, so that the old driver may retire
with victory.
On the stage AL Evans, the new mas
ter of ceremonies, is presented in "Snap
Into It." featuring Val and Ernie Stan
ton, with the Collette sisters, the De
Torogos, Ann Williams and the MN :.
Serova Ballet. The Fox Movietone
News, the M-G-M International News,
short subjects, organ recitals and the
Palace Orchestra will complete the
program.

THE ISLAND LIBRARY

Altho every one on Vashon-
Maury Island old enough to read
is urged to patronize it, many fail
to take advantage of the ususually
welLselected library at Burton,
whose doors are open every Sat
urday afternoon throughout the
year, and on Wednesdays also
from June to September.
Starting with donation of one
hundred books in 1913 it has
grown thru purchase and gifts to
a classified library of more than
sixteen bundled volumes, exclu-
sive of a large number of refer
ence books and periodicals of
great value for research among
students and compilers.
Y The Vashon Island Woman s
Club, whose twenty-five members
established the library and main
tain it by their own efforts, are
deeply Interested in this contribu.
ton to the well-being and pro
gress of the Island and are not
alone in regarding their carefully
catalogued book shelves as a dis
tinct asset to Vashon's community
needs.
Four new volumes are pnr-
chased monthly and often more
from the Clubs library fund.
which is maintained by various ac-
tiyities, with a very small income
from fines and rentals, as books
are available at the nominal rate
OF two and five cents per week,
the larger sum for new, late copy
right works.
The juvenile shelves are full Of
wholesome reading, and Library
Day sees steady stream of boys
and girls eagerly exchanging old
books for new. requirements are
often necessary, more frequently
due to exchanges than to careless
handling, a fact chat adds to tn,
pleasure of the Club members, who
want every book TO see service and
contribute TO the success Of their
cherished project.
Requests for new books are
granted as rapidly as possible, and
everybody is more than welcome
to investigate the titles on the IL
brary shelves.
The Vashon Island Woman :
Club is member Of the State Fed
Grafton Of Women's Clubs and is
one Of the twenty-segcn federated
clubs who have established and
are maintaining Libraries thru their
own initiative aud coordinated eff.
fort.

ment.

BATEAU IS WINNER
OF RICH HANDICAP
Finishes Nose in Front of
Victorian in $50, 900
Race at Bowie.
BY ORLO L. ROBERTSON,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

~ OWE, Md, November 23.-Shades
- of one of the greatest thorough
breds ever to step a hoof on
IL American turf dashed to fame
over snoW-covered Bowie track
today as Bateau, daughter of Man o
War, won the Southern Maryland
Handicap and 1900.
Repeating the performances of her
great sire, Bateau put up game fnl5n
to nose out Victorian and carry the
silks of w M. Jeffords to victory. A
bearer was Balko from the Sycamore
Stable, with K. E. Hits Hot Teddy
fourth.
While run in a furry of snow, the
track was in good condition for the rich
event that attracted the leading handi-
cap horses of the country, with the ex-
ception of the LIE Mar Stock Farms
Misstep, which was scratched. In ac-
counting for the coveted purse the
Amazon daughter of the super-horsc
stepped the mile and sixteenth In
1895.
Balko, always a front runner. set out
to burn up the track from the start, but
Sun Beau, winner of many Fall handi-
cap stakes, was right after him, with
Victorian third. Meanwhile Eddie AM
brose on Bateau was biding his tina.
Around the turn Victorian moved up
fast, going into what appeared safe
lead at the top of the stretch. But
Bateau started her drive at the same
time, and all through the stretch the
Jeffords filly fought Victorian for the
lead, finally drawing upon even terms
and going out in front by nose In the
final stride.
Rated as an outsider, Bateau paid
S2970 to win, $500 to place, but only
$420 to show. Victorian, which was
made the favorite, paid $500 to place
and $2.70 to show, while Balko, field
horse, was worth 81 to run third.
