PRIZE FIGHT FEATURE
 SHOWING AT COLISEUM

"The Man I Love-" featuring Richard Arlen, Baclanova and Mary Brian, opened at the Coliseum last night for two-day run.
 The story is about prize fighter, or rather the hero, a college man, heart broken because his wife has left him because of his misbehayior, who fights championship match heartlessly and is about to lose when his manager says the fighters wife has not deserted him but is listening over the radio. All at once the hero revives, and knocks his opponent into dreamland, and everything ends lovely.
 Herman J. Mankiewicz, wrote the story William Wellman directed it. The talk is intelligible over the Western Electric sound projection system. Harry Green, Jack Oakie, Pat O'Malley, Leslie Fenton, Will liam Vincent and Charles Sullivan are in the cast.

Then standing in the middle of the Wilton pile with chest ex- banded, she took 10 long breaths, exhaling slowly.
 Afterwards she touched her pink toes 10 times with the tips of her fingers, only bending her knees the slightest bit.
 Pretty good" she said, panting a little; "only my legs are too long"
 She then stretched herself on the floor, flat on her back. The bath room door opened suddenly and the maid came in. She had not gone out as Jacqueline imagined, but had been preparing the bath. She discovered Jacqueline on her back in the middle of the carpet, her legs raised at right angles, look ing solemnly upwards at her pink toes.
 These are my physical jerks she explained to the maid. Il do them every morning. This one is rath- CT difficult. It promotes deep breathing, you know, and deep breathing gives you boise, efficien,- : cy, self-control, and all that sort of thing. You ought to try it."
 Yes, ma am murmured the mystified girl. Jacqueline was giv- ing her quite a lot of surprises. Your bath is ready. Will you ring if you want me, please" Fifteen minutes later she emerg- ed glowing and radiant into the bedroom, clad once more in the pink pyjamaS the peeping toes pinker than ever.
 She took 10 more deep breaths with expanded chest, and recited her morning ritual solemnly:
 Don't grouse about the things you haven't got. Make the best oi the things you have got, and reach out for something better. Smile Jacqueline! it's going to be a good day"
 And" she added portentously after breakfast I'm going shop ping. Whats more, I'm going tc give MT. Keswick Dell the jolt oi

 Its a wonderful world you've strayed into, Jacqueline, my girl It's worth waiting 19 years and a bit for. I don't know what you've 1 ever done to deserve it either"
 She heard somebody moving in the next room-her own sitting room.
 T believe it's that red-headed boy" she said fearfully. If he comes in here I shall scream firel" There was a bell-push dangling over her head by a cord from the ceiling. She wanted to know what time it was, and whether she could get up, but was afraid to ring. Presently there was a tap at the door

 May F" said Jacqueline incred- ulously. Before get up?"
 The chambermaid smiled indul- gently It appeared in a few min- utes-a tray of silver, fresh delici- ous tea, some dainty biscuits. Al small table was moved to the bed side. Jacqueline sat up and be- gan to feel like an empress.
 When the tea was finished, Jac- queline laid down again, while the maid removed the tray and fused about the room. She seemed 10th | to leave.
 It was o'clock and Jacqueline decided she must get up.
 She was out of bed with a bound, ! tripping with bare feet gratefully 1 over the deep piled carpet to the door. She slipped the brass bolt as 3 precautionary measure.
