GILMORE LIONS
TIGHTEN HOLD
ON TOP PLACE

Basketball games in the Ell Cen
tro Commercial league last night
saw the Gilmore Lions tighten
their grip on top position with a
80 to q victory over the Gallagher
& Pearson outfit, and the Valley
Laundry take just as firm grip
on the cellar position by losing to
the Calexico Alumni, 81 to IA.
BY its victory the CaleXico squad
broke into the winning column for
the first time. The first half was
slow, but the game ended with
more speed by each team in the
final quarttr.
The Lions-G. & p. game was
the outstanding one of the eve
ming. with the Gilmore outfit
working a lightning offense in the
third quarter and holding the I'M
perial team to one free toss in the
fourth period to cinch victory
Trailing on the little end of an
18 to score at the end of the
half, the Lions came forward in
the third quarter when Coates
found the hoop four times, and
Littlefield and Marshall got two
each. to make a &c to 25 score
at the end of the third, still in
favor of the Gallagher g. Pearson
team.
The final quarter was a thriller,
seeing the Lions emerge with points
to spare. This kept the record of
the Gilmore team clean, with three
victories and no defeats, also
placing them in the position of
being the only undefeated team
in the league.
Coates and II House were for
wards for the Lions, Marshall was
center and Littlefield, Mackey, P.
House and Lyons acted as guards
at various times.
Gallagher & Pearson's lineup
found VanDusen at center, Ten
wolde and Sheffield as forwards,
and Lowers, Dugan and Hurst as
guards. Tenwolde was high-point
man for the losers with five fielc,
goals.

What Irks Censors

Censors are funny people. For
instance, none in America found
offense in George Bernard Shaw's
TOO True to Be Good" Yet the
governor of Warsaw slapped a
ban on the play because he
deemed it irreverent and for its
antimilitaristic phrases in the
third act.
Possibly you're curious to know
the monologue which caused the
censors to shut down the play
Here it is in Shaw's language
brooding over the failure of mill
tarism, science and religion:
"The negative-mOnger falls
before the soldiers, the men of
action. the fighters, strong in
the old uncOmprOmiSing affir-
nations which give them status,
duties, certainty of consequences,
so that the pugnaciOus spirit in
them may reach out and strike
death blows, with steadily
closed minds. Their way is
straight and sure; but it is the
way Of death, and the preacher
must find the way of life. Oh,
If could only find it,"

HOLLYWOOD, Calf, July 7.
After several visits to "Whistling
in the Dark" at a local theater,
Harold Lloyd is showing great
interest in the picture possibilities
of this myStery-comedy; in fact,
he tells me he is about ready to
assure Joe Schenck that he will
do the story after all.
Heretofore, he has opposed it
because it would force him to go
to work Immediately and be-
cause he doesn't approve of plays
for screen vehicles. Audiences,
he argues, know the denouement
in advance.
No decision can be made for
several days, however, as Harold
has gone to San Francisco to
see the intercollegiate champion
ship meet. Hollywood sent a
large party to this event. Harold
went with Douglas Fairbanks,
Howard Hawks and Morley Drury,
famous ex-quarterback for the
University of Southern California.
They had a special radio fitted
up in their compartment to listen
to the broadcast of the Demo
cratic convention.

Bennett Shines
In Hollywood
Film Tale
BIZ ANDREW 3. KELLEY


Constance Bennett offers the
best performance Of her screen
career in What Price Holly
wood" latest feature starring the
blonde actress which opened at
RKO-Keith's Theater yesterday
This picture is far and away
the best of the so-called Hol.
lywood cycle. or stories which
purport to show in semi7Satirical
vein some Of the inside workings
and studio politics of the cellu'
loid industry.
What Price Hollywood" Is
meritoriously distinctive for: /
The tremendously improved act.
ing Of Constance Bennett, a star
who up to now could be niched
with the two-expresSions group.
2. The brilliant supporting per.
formance Of Lowell Sherman
which can certainly be nominated
for consideration by the Academy
committee picking the best screen
work of the 1892 season. 8
The Adela Rogers st. John story
and it's forceful adoption by
Gene Fowler. 4. The superior di.
rection and expert lighting Of
Director George Cukor.
Expert Treatment
This is a rather familiar
Hollywood fiction but it is made
to shine and glow by expert
treatment. 1t tells of a pretty
waitress in the Brown Derby
restaurant at Hollywood who is
awaiting the big chance. 1t
comes when the great director
Max Carey arrives at the eating
rendezvous for film notables
pleasantly inebriated. The little
waitress first commands his in
terest. then his sympathy and
gets her opportunity. Soon Mary
Evans is on the way to stardom
but Director Carey, addict Of the
bottle, is gradually slipping. The
budding star marries Lonny
Borden, millionaire playbody, who
has a quiet contempt for Holly
woods glitter and sham. Mary
and Lonny finally divorce and
her loyal friendship for the
director who gave her the big
chance involves the little star
in a big scandal. It irons out
nicely after a couple Of reels Of
viSsiscitude.
Is Well Acted
Most of this is told and acted
in the credible manner. Once
the story slips for a moment into
wild farce with it's sequence
depicting the dinner date Of the
Hollywood star and her rich
suitor.. But it soon forgets the
fantastic to come back and re-
sumo a believable narrative.
Constance Bennett as more
than limited above is simply great
in this role of Mary Evans. Her
sense of comedy serves her we'll,
and emotional scenes are force
fully played. The portrait of a
great director who dissipates his
genius is superbly etched by Low
ell Sherman. Another perform
ance away above par is con-
tributed by Gregory Ratoff as
SAKE, the colossal film magnate
with his "yes" ininions. Neil

His wife laughed and grasped
his arms.
Don't get so serious. Bill.
You're the greatest husband in

on the edge of a private pool.
The doggonest things hap
pened. Bill Moriarty wrestled
with Nick Kelly, who was al
ways boasting of his strength,
and Nick threw him twice in
10 minutes. Harry Jordan
ripped his trousers on a nail
and, being of a very sensitive
nature, had to keep seated
most of the day. And the fat
Mrs. Muller, while reaching for
q butterfly, lost her balance
and fell right into the pond.

1t was very hot Sunday in July. Mr. Bill MOriarity,
head Of clan that included Mrs Morarity and four little
Moriarys stood back and gazed with pride at the job he
had just accomplished The job the converting Of the
small Morarity delivery wagon into passenger vehicle
that would carry the Morarys and their friends into the
country for gay day of picnicking.
There doubt that the conversion had been en-
trey successful Two American flags, slightly soed but
still noble hung the sides Of the open truck sides

the vehicle used in a business capacity.

Eight CampstooIs
On the floor of the truck
were eight campstools, all Dor.
: fowed for the occasion from
Blodgett, the good-natured un-
dertaker on the corner. The
lunch boxes could go right
under the drivers seat-and If
there was q slight smell Of
gasoline when the sandwiches
were opened, who was going
to complain?
Bill raced up the stairs and
pulled Mrs. Moriarity to the
front window.
There it is, Eileen" he an.
nounced proudly. Flags, dec

does it strike you, Mrs. Mori-
arity?"
The lady nodded.
TITS beautiful, Bill" she re-
turned, but I'm been thinkin'
lately that maybe you'll buy a

BLIND LEARN BRIDGE
BY BRAILLE SYSTEM
Baltimore Red Cross Chapter
Teaches Game With Special
Books and Cards.

The Baltimore Chapter of the Ameri-
can Red Cross is teaching contract
bridge to the blind through the Braille
system, according to report received
at Red Cross headquarters here.
A book on the game has been pre-
pared and playing cards have been
brailled. With this equipment, an ex-
pert in contract has volunteered to
teach members of the American Asso-
citation of Blind Women of Maryland
how to play. All the Braille work was
done by members of the Baltimore Red
Gross Chapter.
The wide application of Braille to the
service of the blind is demonstrated in
the many reports on this activity re-
ceived here. Braille is a system Of
raised dots which enables the blind to
read by sense of touch.
The Baltimore chapter reports that it
also has prepared numerous works Of
fiction and non-fiction and delivered
them to the Library of Congress, head

Became Priest so Years Ago
PROFESSOR FIRST AT c. u EVER TO OBSERVE ANNIVERSARY

THE first professor to be appointed
to the staff of the Catholic
University of America, and now
the only survivor Of the origi-
nal faculty, which started with
the institution on November IA. 1883,
the Very Rev. DR.. Henry Hyvernat,
linguist and scholar, quietly observed
the golden anniversary of his, ordlna-
ton to the priesthood and the cele.
bration of his first mass on June 3
and 4 at his home, 3405 Twelfth street
northeast He is IA years old.
DR.. Hyvernat came to washington
in 1889 at the invitation of Bishop
Keane, the first rector of Catholic Uni
yersity, and was the first professor ap-
pointed to the institution and is the
first to celebrate the golden anniversary
of his ordination. Born and educated
in France, he received the degree OF
doctor of divinity from the Pontlf1cal
University of Rome in 1882, and was
ordained to the priesthood in the
Cathedral of ST. John, the BaptlSt, al
Lyon, France, on June 3, 1897 he
celebrated his first mass in the ancient
Rasillica of Notre Dame de FourVlere
on the fourth of June, half century
ago. The University of Michigan con-
ferred the degree of doctor OF letters
on the eminent scholar in 1919.
Becoming interested in Oriental IAN
puages early in his studies, he became
an interpreter of these languages 1or
the propaganda in Rome and later pro.
lessor of assyriology and egyptology at
the Roman Seminar. The French GOV
ernment intrusted him with scientlhc
mission into Armenia in 1888 and 1889
and his fame as a scholar in his chosen
field had become SO well known tnat
Bishop Keane chose him to be protes-
sor of oriental languages and archec
oloey and chief of the Department OF
Semetic and Egyptian literatures at tiie
Catholic University Of America.
