Daily Report Of
Stock Markets

NEW YORK, Dec. II. U.E -
| Weakness in bank stocks which sent
many to new lows for the last few
years proved an insurmountable
obstacle to rally which got under
way ON the stock exchange today
Steel common dropped to a new
16-year low at 46ls, off 2ss net, in
the late trading and the whole list
resumed the decline.
Another factor of weakness which
worked against the share market
was a break of l to 6 points in do
mestic railroad and industrial
bonds. American Smelling SIS were
under heavy pressure. Over
subscription of the $1,000, ,000,00n
government loans proved too much
competition for the listed issues and
they sold lower, some making new
lows.
Grains and cotton moved against
the trend in financial markets.
Wheat and corn closed with fair
sized gains.
Rallying tendencies in the after
noon were led by the railroad groun.
Various reports on the railroad
wage meeting at Chicago and
agreement among executives on q
credit pool to aid weaker roads
brought in short covering and the
entire carrier list was brought
above the previous closing levels.
Transamerica dropped to a rec
ord low on the prospect of his
toric fight for control of the corr
pany at the stockholders meeting
in February. The Giannini faction
has been making threats to over
throw the present regime headed
by Elisha Walker. Walkers group
yesterday issued blast against the
Giannini group, bringing the entire
fight into bold relief to the detri-
ment of the stock.
According to preliminary calcula-
ton, the Dow, Jones e. Co. indus
| trial average stood at 1852, off 284
points, ril average at $500, off .073
points, and the utility average at
1896, off .095 points.
Sales totaled 2,400,000 shares.

geles Stock Exchange today. Two

Londos, Gus Sonnenberg and their

ParadoXically. the very qualities
which made the 260 pound negro

factors which assure him Of wrest-

Big George cannot wrestle but
that is not a serious handicap. Al
ter a Mexican tour in which he
scored ID consecutive victories in

mystery hold. which consisted
chiefly Of a tight hook 10 the jaw,
and was booked immediately 10

The Jersey City snow assured
Godfrey of offers from one of the
big wrestling trusts. Whereas such
stars as Londos, Mcmillan. Son.
nenberg and Don George never
have been able to draw more than
100 fans at Jersey City, Godfrey's
appearance resulted in a sellout of
the 5000 capacity arena and more
than 5000 fans were turned away.
Godfrey won his match-in fact
he won two matches. Il wouldn't
be good business to have him de-
ieated. The first match went IS

FANS WANT PACHO
TO WIN HIS FIGHT

While valley boxing fans will be
out in force at the arena tonight,
the minds and hearts of more than
one of them will be up in Holly
wood. where Bobby Pacho is fight
ing Frankie Klick in the main
event.
Bobby has been made the under
dog by coast papers, who incident
ally now claim him as local pro-
duct. The sports writers cannot
see him as winner over KlicA
who has had greater experience.
This thought is not held by many
Of Pacho's followers here.
For instance there is chiro-
practor who's office is not 2l47
miles from the Press office who was
going around town today ready to
stake all or any part of a nickel
on Bobby TO win.
This is the kids first big main
event and if he can get over it
there's hoping he cam he is in for
a match with Claude Warner and
IF he can make that hurdle, there
is La Barba and big money in the
offing.

Grader Horn"
The Latest African Spectacle.
TINE popularity and appeal Of
the great netherland of At
RIGA was clearly illustrated
at the opening of Trader
Horn" last night at the Ma
tional. Strong armed policemen
were on hand to help stem the tide
of humanity that came TO see just
what goes on down there in the
heart of the crocodile kingdom. Half
of the crowd was left on the out
side. Those who got in watched
breathlesSly the most recent exhibit
ton of animalism and romanticism
in the toughest Of the kingdoms.
The net result was not hard 70
fathom. The real heroes are the
creeping and crawling things. Man
comes in only as q sort OF prop 10
the theatric story. There is a white
lady. whose skin seems to have de-
fed the broiling African sun success
fully all of her lifetime, and there
is Harry Carey and Duncan Rey-
naldo, who do most OF the shooting
with camera and gun. They seem,
however, the least important part OF
what goes on.
The photographer of the saga Of
Of man Trader Horn-which Is a
distinct saga from the book-haS
caught much beauty with his camera.
He has supplied q glamorous assort-
ment of backgrounds. The scenery
is the most lavish that nature could
possibly supply. The makers OF the
picture have nodded 1t to their uses
with incredibly beautiful results.
Giant falls, long sluggish rivers, with
trees bending half across them,
sweeps of cumulus clouds and the
tangled brushwood of the jungle, all
have been captured effectively by
the camera and turned into q series
of highly impressive film sequences.
What is lacking is a firm founda-
ton for g. story. The heroine has
no particular reason for loving the
hero, especially since she can't I'M
derstand him, and the hero should
have known that when he gets his
blonde African lady home the fam
lily tree may give more than grunt
of dissatisfaction. However, 1t seems
evident that some one had to be on
hand to walk around the jungle and
take these pictures. So they have
given Harry Carey an old hat, and
a travelling companion, and to satisfy
lovely Edwina Booth loose in the
midst of the dusky natives and sup
piled her eventually with Man"
The real reason for going to see
Trader Horn" is for the excitement
of the animal scenes, which are
really exciting. Crocodiles have
never seemed more venomous, tigers
more tigerish, or CRATES more long
necked than in the many pictures
made of them. Some of them tear
each other limb from limb, some
merely run across the horizon, but
all of them contribute to wealth
of wonderful pictures in which the
story makes little difference whether
it Is there or not AS a prominent

revue, entitled "Step Lively Girls"
The presentation is . musical con-
coction Of song and dance, inter-
spersed with fun and laughter, and
in nowise can it be called soothing.
Interest rather is at fever height.
Assisting Miss Whitney are two
funsters of well known abilities
Harry Bentley and Charles (Bimbo)
Davis. OF a certainty, 1t is Miss
whitney who comes in for the big
volume of the applause, which is well
deserved. She has sweet voice and
one of the nimbleSt pairs Of tap
dancing toes of the Gayety season.
Harry Bentley, who uses the slap
stick method, assisted in his antics
by Jess Levy, provides only fair
brand Of fun. "Bimbo" Davis, whose
wit seems more natural, is great.
Paul Catrell and his dainty dancing
partner register one of the hits Of
the show, and Jack Lancaster, in an
eccentric dance number, Is good.
It may be of interest to add at
this point that in the past two weeks
several of the feature artists used
at the Gayety have been seen on the
stage of various other Washington
theaters that support vaudeville.
The casts of the Gayety shows are
unqueStionably on the rise. 3. w.

Chevy Chase GIee Club
Takes q Hand in Political Satire.
SENATORS, Representatives, cabi-
~ net officers and Presidents all
received their share Of criticism in
the comedy of political satire which
was presented by the Chevy Chase
School Glee Club before large au-
dience Saturday evening in the
school theater.
The Democratic donkey and the q.
o. P. elephant clearly demonstrated
what was accomplished when the
two worked together. And, Of course,
to complete things, there was the
lame duck with many Of his friends,
including the Unemployed Alley Cat,
Mrs. Wall Street Bear, Mr.. Wall
Street Bull and their son, Economics,
who, with the others, took the Gov
eminent at large, turned it inside
out, ripped it open, joked and played
with it in general.
At times the laughter and APP
plauding was demonstrated with
such spirit that 1t was necessary to
pause In the program until the ap-
preciative audience subsidized.
When the beasts had roamed away,
the political items came to play.
And so they did. Among them were
Miss Mussel, Mr.. Shoals, Mr.. Bonus,
Miss Hoax, Judge Sham, Ruth
Hanna, Senator Pep, Mr.. Mellon,
Mrs. Astorbilt and our dear friend,
Carrie Cawzenkur, propably of War,
who, instead of roasting peanuts or
popcorn, chose such subjects as Sen
ate combinations, the Wickersham
Commission, Presidential administra-
tons, the Republican and Demo-
cratic parties and also brutally at
tackled the poor lame ducks.
Senator Borah's double added to
the mirth by demonstration of
the Senator addressing Congress, in
which, with many gesticulations, he
demands, Where am I? I ask you,
where am ]? And If you don't know,
how should ~" The "aliaS" Senator
Borah was played Dorothy Sylvester.
A tap-dance routine by Dorothy
Bryde, Anita Loeb and Loriel Carr
was exceptionally well performed.
Anita Loeb also gave a soft-shoe
routine, Dorothy Bryde buck dance
