ME DICINE MANI TO GIVE WAY TO 'MANSLAUCHTER'
Claudete Colbert and Fred eric March Star at
 Coliseum Sunday

The Medicine Man." featuring Jack Benny and Betty Bronson, heads the bill tonight at the Coli l scum theatre. "Manslaughter," with Claudette Colbert and Frederic Marsh in the principal roles, will be presented tomorrow night.
 The Medicine Man" is a stage play by Elliott Lester, prepared for the screen by Dadye Horton and Eve Unsell, with Scott Pembroke directing.
 The role of The Medicine Man is the one for which Jack Benny seems especially fitted. Miss Bron- son enacts the role of Mamie Goltz, smalltown beauty who cap- tivates the Medicine Man. Eva Mo- yak plays Swedish girl character. Others in the cast are Tom Dugan and Georgie Stone.
 Careless Life of Wealthy
 Man Slaughter" is an introduce ton to the careless, carefree life of the wealthy, their gay parties, their nerve -tingling sports, their light, laughing love affairs. But it is also a grim melodrama that shows how beautiful daughter of wealth becomes a conscious woman by means of a great tragedy and a powerful love.
 Claudette Colbert has the role that calls for all her youth and beauty and acting talent. Man slaughter" is considered to be one of Paramount's outstanding pie lures of the season.
 Miss Colbert, as the petted so- ciety beauty, falls in love with Fredric March, young, handsome, ambitions district attorney and at tempts to twist him around her finger just as she has dozens of other suitors.
 March is of different stamp, however, and remonstrates with her against her thoughtless, selfish life. Arrested for speeding she bribeS traffic policeman. March tries to tell her that she is contributing to the ruin of the man by such action. She laughs at him.
 Her maid is convicted of stealing and the society butterfly is too lazy to lift a finger to save the girl from a stiff prison sentence.
 Fast automobile driving is her greatest pleasure, but, when in one of these escapades, she kills traf- fic policeman, she is partially awak- ened to a sense of responsibility. March, as district attorney, has to prosecute her for the crime and she is sent to prison. Her love for March turns to hate, but life in prison shows her the futility of her former life.

WASHINGTON, D. O., July G.
 Special Correspondence)-The City Council at Fairbanks has wired a request that the General Land Off, flee issue modified deed to their park grounds, so that they might be held in trust for park and re- creational purposes and for public including the establish ment and maintenance thereon of airport buildings and air naviga- tion facilities.

 Rev. w. w. Perrett, for 40 years a missionary among the chubby fur-c -clads translated the book and the Hudson Bay Company publish ed it. The first part deals with the British Empire in the following fashion:
 'The greatest ruler of all, who governs white men, brown men and black men is King George " He is your king.
 He is also a great sailor which is fitting for a man who lives on an island. He sails a boat faster than all other boats of the same size.

@HICAGO, February avery
4 one seems determined to
~ give Chicago heavyweight
championship fight next
Summer, although your CORE
spondent has yet to see any pub
lie demonstrations in demand of
such a luxury. But, according to
numerous promoters, a heavy
weight fight is just what Chicago
needs to restore prosperity and
everything.
Some months ago Jack Kearns in
formed every one who could be induced
to read his publicity that Mickey Wal
kerr the middleweight, would meet Max
Schmeling, heavyweight champion of
the moment, on Soldier Field some
evening when the weather was warm.
But that idea died when Herr Schmel-
ing refused to meet Walker, here or
elsewhere, until after he had attended
to an engagement with Willie Stribling,
who ranks several files ahead of Mr..
Walker in the heavyweight field.

the New York Boxing Commission

But that too, was tossed out when

In the m antime the Chicago Stadium,

Square Garden crowd coming into the
Windy City to promote Schmeling-
Stribling fight and even threatened to
have the law on the invaders unless
they called of their plans.

BALL IS DEADENED
BY MAJOR LOOPS
Pitchers Will Be Helped by
Bigger Seams 1866
Home Runs Hit in 1880.

"a YEW YORK, February 4.-Major
IN league batsmen who slugged
1856 balls over the fences or
into the bleachers last season
with have a new and "deader" ball to
swing at this year.
Both the National and American
Leagues have decided that the home
run barrage has gone far enough and
a change in the balls physical aspects
is the result.
In the National League the ball will
have a thicker cover and heavier
stitches. In the American League the
cover will be the same, but the stitches
will be heavier.
Not only will these changes take
some of the liveliness out of the
ball, major league officials confidently
expect, but also will give the pitchers
a better grip on the ball and thereby
increase their effectiveness.
The pitchers. hampered continuously
by all sorts CT restrictions, have COM
p.ained for several years that the
smoothnesS of the balls cover has made
it extremely difncult to control. The
thicker stitches planned on the 1881

Changes Not Drastic.
Proponents of the lively ball and the
frequent home run need have little fear
that these changes in the balls con-
structicn will bring about a return to
the days when dozen home runs were
good enough to win a league champion
ship.
The changes are not drastic enough
for any radical decrease in hitting.
Oficials of both leagues do believe,
however, that the changed ball will re-
suit in greater pitching efficiency,
decrease in the number of trick home
runs hit and a slump in the inflated
batting averages of the last few years.
Last season, for instance, 10 players
in the majors hit 35 hcme runs or
more. Hack Wilson of the Chicago
Cubs led both leagues with Sc and
Babe Ruth of the New York Yankees
was runner-up with 40. Other lead
ers were Gehrig, Yankees, Al; Klein,
Phillies, 40; Berger, Braves, SO; Foxx,
Athletics, Hartnett, Cubs. and Goslin,
Browns, 81 each; Simmons, Athletics,
SO, and Herman, Robins, IS.
All told, the National League hit
8e2 home runs, the American, STA.

several furlongs removed from a cham
pionship affair, but 1t looks like the
best Chicago will be able to get
Mique Malloy, another Chicago pro-
moter, has stepped into the picture and
will endeavor to prevent Sharkey from
boxing for the Stadium. When Malloy,
who weighs more than Camera, steps
into a picture there is room for nothing
else including the frame and he may
be hard fellow for the Stadium crowd
to convince.
Malloy claims to have had Sharkey
signed to box Camera at Comiskey
Park, last September, and that Jack
pulled out of the match. Consequently
Mique claims the Boston sailor viii do
no punching in Chicago rings until all
obligations to the Malloys have been
satisfied Chances are Malloy will be
appeased in some manner and the fight
held.
If both the Schmeling- Stribling and
Walker Sharkey bouts are held in June,
the heavyweight situation will be con-
siderably clarified 1t then will be pos
sible to match the two winners and
have real champion by Fall. Which
is what may occur unless boxing COM
and managers engage in foolish
pickering and squabbling as they too
often do.

championship next Fall.
For several years the series has been
a match between the pennant winners

head of the American Association, said
today. "They have shortened their sea-
son and will not play a split schedule. F"
President Hickey issued a prosperity
forecast for his league today. He said
a closer race was anticipated and that

Champion Macks Take Doz-

YankS Shy HurIers.
BY PAUL NICHOLSON,
Associated Press Sports Writer

~ HICAGO, February 4.-There
will be no depression this
~ year for the rookie hope
fuls who seek bigger and
better pay days in the ranks of the
American League.
Help wanted signs, dangling
from every club office in the
league, have attracted 100 appli-
cants CT all shapes, sizes and rec
ords. All of them have been well
coined with open arms.
Opportunity is everywhere for
those able to deliver. Even the
unsuccessful ones are certain Of
thorough chances and subsequent
employment with minor leagues.
Although his team captured the
American League pennant for the sec.
ond straight year and then ADDED
another world championship, Connie
Mack of the Philadelphia Athletics will
take a dozen or more young pitchers
to the White Elephants training camp.
He admits he needs better support for
Bob Grove and George EarnshaW and
opportunity will be plentiful He
doesn't need any outfielders but he is
taking a trio of rockies along for OBJ
servation anyway.
Yanks Need Fingers.
Pitchers are the crying need of Joe
Mccarthy and his New York Yankees,
too Eight experienced hurlers will try
cut with the Yanks. including four
from the international League and one
each from the Pacific Coast League
and American Association. Two young
outfielders of great promise, Myril Hosg
of Sacramento and Fred Walker OF
Jersey City, also will get chance and
are expected to stick.
Detroit, seeking more punch at the
bat, has grabbed off several fence
busting outf1elders, depending on its
1880 staff and optional players for
pitching largely.
Chicago and St. Louis needed in
fielders and went after them. The
Browns picked up three young sensa-
tions from the Texas League, Burns,
Storti and Levey of Wichita Falls and
two good minor league catcher pros
poets in Young of Milwaukee and
Crouch Of wichita Falls.
The White Sox, experimenting with
good-looking youngsters for a change
instead of writing out six-fgured checks
for established stars, have a flock OF
young talent that brings a smile to the
face of the "Cld Roman" Charles A.
Comiskey.
Griffs Try a Few.
Cleveland needed first-string pitch
ing aid and bought Fay Thomas of
Sacramento and Craghead of Oakland,
both with experience. The Indians also
picked up two third basemen, before
of New orleans and Winegarner from
FL Dorado, one of whom may replace
Joe Sewell Washington had great
pitching staff last year. but will try out
a few youngsters and give three in
felders including First Baseman Joe
Kuhel of Kansas City, chance. Bos-

most a score of rockies to Pensacola.
Three of them-Catcher Muddy .Ruel.
Pitcher Wiley Moore and Pitcher
Johnny Brillheart-can hardly be classed
as rockies, as they have been up before.
