on board a rum-runner (she had innocently accepted a chance ac- quaintances invitation to board it), she goes to her mother to find her a hostess in a notorious East Side night club and gambling den.
 Believing she has inherited bad blood from her mother, the girl tries to lead a fast life with the youth who had enticed her on board the rum runner. They get mar ried and he agrees to go straight, but her mother frames the boy for stretch in Sing Sing, ignorant of the marriage and wishing to pro- tect the girl from this member of the bootleg racket. How the mother saves the boy when she learns the truth, forms one of the most highly dramatic and emotional cllmaxes of any recent picture.
 Grant Withers is ikeable and outstanding leading man who wins the liking of audiences at sight. He's a good actor, too. Others ic the all-around excellent cast are Douglas Gerard, Otto Hoffman snd Lee Moran.

Chairman of Game Com mission Replies to Peti-
 ton of Trappers

CORDOVA, Alaska, Jan 20.-An- swering a petition concerning open ing of the beaver season at Sew ard and the Alaska Railroad area, Dr. w. H. Chase, Chairman of the Alaska Game Commission, has made an official statement as fol- lows: Tn answer to complaints of trappers that the catch is not normal, I might advise that the number of trappcrs is increasing each year with many overlapping on established trap lines and mak- ing the individual catch smaller. But I believe that when the sea- sons catch is checked, it will be found that as many fur bearers were taken as during the last fis- cal year.
 "It would be impossible for the Alaska Game Commission to change the regulations without giving 90- day notice, unless given power through a special act of Congress.
 Every effort is being made by the Commission to protect resident trappers."

WASHINGTON, Jan. 20.-Stocky, robust, bespectacled Representative Louis C. Cramton Of Michigan be- lieves in restoring and preserving those places historic in the annals of America.
 Unless such projects are executed with reality, however, all the sup port they will get from him is a snort of disgust.
 And Cramton's snort is Q matter of concern in the House of Repre- sentatives. More often than not it spells defeat for someone-as it did recently.
 In Wakefield, Va, there is a move on foot to reproduce the house in which George Washing ton was born The association in- terested in the project appealed to Congress for $65, ,,OO0 The Senate passed the bill and sent it over to the House.
 Bland of Virginia urged immedi- ate passage on the ground that a handsome gift from the Rockefeller foundation would be lost if action were delayed.

MASQUERADE" IS AT
 COLISEUM, TOMORROW

Whatever suspicious some skepti- cal movie fans might have had when they saw what pufported to be auto crashes in silent pictures are certain to be dispelled when they hear and see the one recorded in Masquerade" latest Fox Movie tone all talking picture.
 Leila Iyams, driving small car, was called upon to crash into the side of Alan Birmingham's big roadster. In silent pictures the director might have hesitated to take a chance with his leading lady and leading man. But the all-powerful microphone demanded the real thing.
 When the two cars met there was a highly satisfactory crash, much to the relief of the principals, so it was not necessary to remake the scene.
 Its bad enough to run into someone accidentally" said Mis- Hyams later. But when you know you are going to do it in ad- vance," it's terrific strain on your nerves"
 Russell J. Birdwell directed Mas querade," and Lumsden Hare di- rected the dialog. The picture opens at the Coliseum tomorrow.

TWO WEEKS OFF"
 SHOWING PALACE

Dorothy Mackaill and Jack Null hall, co-stars of a score of silent and several synchronized feature pictures made their first co-starring talkie debut at the Palace Theatre last night in Two Weeks Off" a First National Vitaphone picture.
 What Vitaphone can do to add entertainment to a first rate com cdy-drama was aptly demonstrated in Two Weeks Off" Here is a splendid story made into clever picture with hilarious dialogue and sound effects that add tremendous ly to it's universal amusement quail ties.
 There is no slowing of action in Two Weeks Off, the dialogue is just as speedy as the story and that includes no dull moments. Null hall and Mackaill in combination never fail to amuse and this time they click at new and accelerated rate. The audience opening night didn't just enjoy it, they loved it.
 As suggested by the title, the story centers around a summer va cation and its accompanying TO- nance. Dorothy Mackaill, a clerk and Jack Mulhall plumber, go to the seashore for. good time, even as you and l. They meet and fall in love but Jack is mistaken for 2 motion picture actor and the plot somersaults on itself, leaving es bunny a mixup as has ever been pictured.

I IBERTY, happiness, prosperity, A all these wonderful things that we take for granted are symbolizee best by our national flag, affec- tionately known as "Old Glory" And it does not take much imag- ination to visualize how much the designing and making of that flag meant to the band of men in whose hands lay the destinies of an in- dependent people determined to found a country, rather than be a colony.
 It is very appropriate, therefore, that d.e woman who made our first flag, should have been born on January l. For, New Years Day, 1752, was the birthday of Betsy Ross, the first needlewoman of our country. And although we like to imagine that this is the day of the business woman, it must go on

record that Mrs. ROSS, young, bright, and very shrewd, ran a very prosperous upholstery busi- ness on Arch street, below Third, in Philadelphia. She was the widow of John Ross, nephew of Colonel George Ross, who was one of the committee appointed by Congress in June, 1776, to design suitable flag for the nation. George Wash ington, who was one of the com mittee, had frequently called on Mrs. Ross to embroider his shirt ruffles and do other needlework for him, and so it was to her that he turned for advice about the flag, how it should be made, so that it conformed to the rough drawing that had already been made embodying the ideas of the committee.
 Mrs. Ross objected to tEa six pointed stars in the original de- sign, suggesting in place the five

HOLLYWOOD, Jan. 20.-There are now in the movies two out standing actors of the great he man" school of the screen. With enc of them I recall an interview not so long ago in which the actors egotism revealed itself as limitless.
 In short, he admitted rather free y that he was good. He was 8 real actor, he knew his business. He was not like the rest. A slim veil Of pretended modesty behind which he hid at intervals for the sake of creating an impression was pierced violently and frequently by large and swaggering capitals Is.

pointed star because it was easier to make. To demonstrate the ease with which such star could be made, the vivacious little widow folded a piece of paper and pro duced one by single snip of her scissors. The sketch was redrawn in pencil by George Washington, and with a few minor alterations, a banner that approximated to the ideas of Benjamin Franklin and others who had made suggestions, was adopted. Mrs. Ross was then entrusted with the work of mak- ing the wonderful flag with it's thirteen red and white stripes and it's circle of thirteen white stars, which was to symbolize that the new nation would also be without end-that it would endure for ali time. And for her services, Betsy Ross deserves her niche in the hall of great American women.

 McLagien is, in fact, an actor second, a soldier and adventurer first. He comes from a family of fighters. Five McLaglen brothers were in the British army during the war. The eldest died in the service.
 Victor, who ran away from home to fight in the Boer war, became provost marshal of Bagdad in the latest conflict. Before that, he had travelled the world, always in search of adventure. He has boxed and wrestled, followed a gold rush, play led in medicine and wild west shows, toured with a wrestling act in vaudeville

LURES BIG CONCERN
Makers of Majestic Set Join
Purdue in Research
Program.

With an eye to the future, the
Grigsby- Grunow Co. of Chicago has in
vaded the experimental television field.
1t has joined forces with Purdue
University in television research, and
has as its objective the manufacture of
television receiving sets as sister line
to It's Majestic radio set. The arrange
ment with Purdue Is to conduct ex-
periments jointly, and once it is felt
the visual art has successfully over
come the technical obstacles now con-
fronting it, the manufacturing concern
will begin production of televisors for
the public. Grigsby- Grunow will get
exclusive commercial rights to the uni
versity's patents, for which they Will
pay royalties.
DivuIged at Hearing.
Entry of the company in the tele-
vision field was divulged at a formal
hearing before the Federal Radio Com
mission on the application of Purdue

Commission. 1t is understood he dis
cussed the television enterprise with
the commission.
The working arrangement" between
the manufacturing company and the
university was entered into year ago

both the transmitting and receiving
ends. Moreover, he stated, much prog.
ress has been made at the university ir

of primary import in bringing the visua
art into the realm of practicability.
