SERVICE CALL SYSTEM

1 Always on the alert as to ways OF
being Of service to its patrons, the
management of the Capital Theatre
has completed the installation of
Service Call System.
Frequently patrons attending
2 performance are wanted and it is
difficult to locate them. Hereafter,
when patron expects call, he in
forms the cashier before entering
the theatre, no wassigns a call
number to that person. Should he
receive a call during the time he is
hi the theatre,3a green light, located
at the front Of the theatre, flashes
his call number, thus notifying the
natrOn that he is wanted. In this
way the patron is notified without
Any interruption of the program as
is caused by flashing an announce
meut on the screen, or by paging.
This call system will be of especial
benefit to doctors, nurses, members
IF the police department and others
who must keep in touch with their
headquarters while attending the
theatre. =,
In addition to the general call
system, there is also red call
light which is used for notifying
members of the fire department
when an alarm is sounded. Thus
fremen may be assured of being
notified of an alarm while they are
in the theatre.
In order that the ventilating sys-
tenn would not interfere, with the
nroper presentation of the "talkies"
Mr. Shindler has had the entire
system reconditioned and sound-in-
eiIlated. This>will make possible
comfortable conditions on the warm
est nights without interference from
fhe ventilating system. Not the
least of importance in the recent
improvements being made was the
installation of an inter-communl-
cating telephone system, placing all
G4etjartfhents of the theatre in in
staift Touch with each other. This
will greatly facilitate the handling
CT the performances. - - .'''

VETERAN BOXER
WILL ATTEMPT
TO COME BACK
BY BERT DENNY
United Press Staff Correspondent

CHICAGO. Feb. 13. U.P)-Satis
fled with his physical condition, Old
Charlie White, who owns a knock
out record without parallel in the
lightweight division, is anxious for
the battle next week which he
thinks will mark the beginning of
his proving that "at least one guy
can come back"
A great fighter in his day, a fel.
low who fought sc fights with cham.
pions and had nearly all his oppon-
ents, including Benny Leonard. on
the floor, White at the age of SO is
convinced that he can whip any Of
the present lightweights.
In his prime in the days when
there were fighters like Leonard.
Willie Ritehie. Freddy Welsh
and johnny Dundee. Charlie
thinks that he vet is good enough
to punch his way to the champion
shin. with his left hook.
He probably is destined to disap-
pointement but nevertheless his
come back effort is being watched
with interest here. 1t cretainlv is
true that if he can throw that left
hook with any degree of his old
speed somebody had better look out.
Whites initial effort will be
against frankie Hayes, the young
Philadelphian who certainly is no
easy mark. Not so long ago Hayes
lad Billy Wallace on the floor three
times in one fight and he fought a
draw with Baby Joe Cans.
White is convinced that he is still
fast enough to reach younger oppon-
ents with his left.
Need of money has nothing to do
with Cahrlie's comeback effort. He
has a we'll patronized health studio
which takes care of him financially
and which he has utilized to keep in
good physical condition during his
off years.

Ignored by Mother,
Lion Cubs Adopted
By BlOoded Setter
Mrs. Leo Refuses to Feed
Her Three Babies, SO
Bereaved Dog Gets Them.

A small setter dog at the National
Geological Park has accepted the charge
Of mothering lion cubs, three furry, still
blind creatures, which at first appeared
to have been born to starvation because
their mother ignored them.
Head Keeper w. H. Blackburn was
faced with a real problem when the
triplets arrived Friday. Their mother
stalked about the cage, too proud, ap-
parently, to notice her offspring.
AS time passed 1t became apparent
that the newcomers we're not obtaining
sufficient nouriShment, something which
the lioness could not be induced to
remedy.
Then Blackburn thought of the dog
well bred setter, which had just lost
her pups He brought the ill-assorted
animals together, and was much re-
lieved to see the reaction.
The dog adopted the cubs as readily
as If they had been her own, feeding
them regularly and giving them their
baths.
Now, while the cubs roll about on
the floor of Head Keeper Blackburn's
Office at the Lion House, the dog
watches them with q maternal solicit
tude astonishing all beholders.
It is planned to wean them from
their foster mother before they become
large enough to injure the setter.
