AT THE STRAND

Big Boy" was Al Jolsons best play. The picture of the same name which opened yesterday at the Strand thcater is without a doubt the most entertaining picture this reviewer has ever had the privilege of seeing. His jokes and stories are spontaneous and fresh. Al Jolson is always at his best when he is all lowed to create as he goes along. and it is obvious that the producers allowed him free rein in making this picture.
 The story deals with intrigue in connection with a horse called Big Boy who is to ride in the Kentucky Derby. Gus, the colored jockey who is to ride Big Boy is inveigled into doing something against the train- CTS orders. There are circumstances which make it impossible for him to clear himself, and he is dischars- ed. In time he and Annabel Bed ford's sweetheart, Joe, get enough proofs to show that the new jockey has been hired by those who framed the race.
 Alan Crosland must be congratu- lated on keeping up the suspense of the plot so well.

ARMY OF GOLFERS
 AT PUBLIC COURSE
Nearly 300 Play On Sunday
 Total Receipts Reach S826

All previous records for the num- Der of rounds of golf played in any one day on the Municipal Golf course were broken yesterday. when almost 800 rounds were played.
 By actual count there were 297 rounds, making total of 1,1S0 for the week. This was a drop of two from the first weeks record of 1,1S2 and is attributed to the rainy weather last week, particularly on Monday, Labor Day.
 The total number of rounds play ed since the course opened is 2,067 up to Saturday night and 297 yes- terday, making 1862 rounds since August 9.
 This makes total receipts of $S26.- 10 cents since the course opened. The upkeep expense to date is estimated to be about $650, leaving a surplus of s176.70 which will go towards additional equipment. The Park board hoped to have the permanent greens ready for use in short time. This matter will come up for discussion at the meeting of the board tomorrow evening.
 May Cut Working Week
 The board also will discuss the possibility of adopting a five day working week instead of a six day week, at tomorrows meeting. Now the department maintains skele- ton organization, and one gang works one week and the other gang works the next week. Under the new arrangement the men still will work on alternate weeks but five days out of 14 instead of six. Lack of funds is the cause of the pro- posed new move.
 Within a week it is expected to begin seeding the new east end park. in which there will be grass diamond for baseball playing.
 New flowers and flower beds are being offered to the park depart ment almost every day and most of the fall planting will consist of set | ting out hoNerS presented pS resi- dents who are expressing their ap- proval of the policy of planting | flowers in this way.
 Mrs. Rose Wunsch of 7S Grand street. widow of the late Fred Wunsch, today offered a rose bed in the memorial rose garden at Wal nut Hill park, to Superintendent Clyde M. EllingWood.
 George H. Wells of Hart street has presented the park with 100 iris plants.
 Policeman Fred Wagner also has offered Superintendent Ellingwood a gift of flowers for one of the parks. A memorial rose bed will be donated by the Business and Professional Women's club.

MAXIM 0FF|CIATES
 AT RADIO EXHIBIT Touches Key That Takes Im-
 pulse Around World

Hartford, Sept. 8 (UP)-Hiram Percy Maxim, president of the h. ternational Amateur Radio Union and the American Radio Relay League. arose early here today to take a flashlight picture in Australia.

Gulf Stream Power Idea Tube
 Launched Perfectly Of Cuba

Matanza, Cuba. Sept. P-Pro- lessor George Claude, French sci enlist, expected today to proceed at once with development of his scheme to produce inexpensive power from the Gulf stream.
 Elated at success of launching his 5000 feet long six foot diame- ter tube to draw cold water from the depths below the Gulf stream, he expected little further difficulty to attach to his million dollar ex- pertinent in practical physics. N The tube. probably the most ex- pensive part of the power project, was slipped into the water eff this port Sunday, after two previous at tempts had failed because, Profess sor Claude charged, of sabotage by interests opposed to his idea.
 ANdozen tug boats, government destroyer, two companies of troops, and squads of provincial police as- sisted in the gigantic task. The tugs lined the apparatus to keep it from curving and breaking in the Gulf stream until the two cables keeping it on the surface were cut and it slipped perfectly to the bot tom of the ocean.
 It is Prof. Claude's plan to draw warm water from the surface of the Gulf stream, vaporize 1t by sub hitting it to vacuum, using the stream to operate turbine, and in turn condensing the stream again to maintain the vacuum.
 Professor Claude has the backing of the French Academy of Science and the Cuban government in the venture.

Rath CT than compel him to work out the fine and costs in jail, however, he placed Syszka on probation.
