Roar of the Dragon and 'Spanky' Will Sh ow
 Last Times Tonight

Roar of the Dragon" advetur- GUS drama, starring Richard Dix and Gwili Andre, and "Spanky,' 9 an Our Gang" comedy will be presented for the last times tonight at the Capitol theatre.
 In Road of the. Dragon" one of the dramatic situations shows eight persons besieged by rowing Manchurian bandits in Chinese inn.
 SwashbuclSling Captain
 There is Dix, a swashbuckling romantic, adventurous captain of a river boat; there is zasu Pitts, a gabby, eccentric small-town Cooks tourist; Edward Everett Hor- a nervous whimsical hotel clerk i; Miss Andre, Russian beauty of mystery, who carries a poison vial against capture by the thungs; Arthur Stone, an old Jewish shop keeper; Airline Judge, pert little remnant of stranded theatrical troop; Dudley Digges, the irascible owner of river boats and William Orlamond, a kindly old German physician
 Food, water and ammunition are limited. Some of them must die to allow the others an opportunity to escape.
 Vividly Dramatic Crisis
 How they fight out this prob lem, trapped in the hotel with ma chine gun bullets singing around them and murderous bandits turk ing at every corner outside, and how every person reacts to the emergency, make a vividly dra- matic crisis.
 In "Spanky" which is burlesque on Uncle Toms Cabin" mon grel pups are made into ferocious bloodhounds. The youngsters of Our Gang" transform a variety of dogs from poodles to police dogs by the use of hot water bot ties. They tied the water bottles over the dogs heads so they give the appearance of the floppy ears of bloodhounds.

NEW JOBS FOR SOME

A few of these veteran behind the-scene workers may be able te land berths with the men who replace their old employers. This often happens. A new Senator or Congressman arrives in Wash ington not knowing much about the way things are done some times gets his secretaries from the ranks of these veterans. 2
 The chances this time, however are slim. It'll be Democrats re- placing Republicans next March rather than Republicans taking the places of Republicans. X
 And as rule these jobs are promised back home some months before election time = sometimes more than once.

SPORTS PARADE
OFFERS VARIETY
IN T0DAY'S NEWS
BY HENRY McLEMORE
United Press staff Correspondent

NEW YOhn, Oct. 29.-Two days
ago We turned the matter of Ro-
gers Hornsby's employment by the
st. Louis Cards over to our What
In-the- Name -of-Sam-Hill depart
ment, with the notation, "why?"
Today Hortense L. Smoo, re-
search chief, submitted her report
on the case. We offer it for what
it's worth.
Yours of the Goth inst. received
and contents noted. placed six
! investigators on the case and they
j all agreed that HoInsby was hired
for one of the following reasons:
q. Sam Breadon is a sentiment
| tai big-hearted man.
20. For ornamental purposes.
IS. As a pinch hitter.
ID To manage the team.
You will notice that not one of
the investigators mentioned the
possibility that Breadon signed
Hornsby to play as a regular in
fielder. Asked about this they ex-
planned at length. Their explana-
ton ran something like this. Talk
of Hornsby beating out Frisch for
second base is ridiculous, being as
age and injuries have slowed the
once Spry Rajah down to a canter.
No less silly. is the talk of his play
ing third base.
He tried third base with Chicago
last season and was so terrible he
got a booing every time he took his
place at the hot corner. The st.
Louis air, while very balmy and
health-giying. isn't calculated to re-
juvenate the 38-year-old Hornsby.
AS for Hornsby playing first base,
the Cards have a couple of better
than middlin' first sackers in Bot
tonly and Collins. He tried the
outfield in Chicago. and was the
same sort of flychaser he was third
baseman.
No for the reasons for his hir-
ing advanced by my agents l think
we can throw out that sentimental
big-heartedness on the part of
Breadon. Read over the Cards pay
roll and you'll discover that Sam
watches his pennies. Gabby Street,
the present manager, is. they tell
me, making less than $1,000. That's
not exactly haircut money, but it's
not in keeping with most mana
gers pay.
Il doubt if Breadon would sign
Hornsby as an ornament. Potted
palms, fir trees and geranium beds
come cheaper. Nor do I think he'd
pay Hornsby the sort of money
Hornsby wants just for pinch-hit-
ting. So you see that leaves us with
one just reason-the little business
of managing the club And why
not?
"Of course, Street is still there,
but at that sort of salary the Cards
could afford to send him down the
river to a farm team. Houston,
say. And Hornsby can manage
He's proved that. But my advice
would be not to worry about this
angle, and wait until spring and
let nature and Breadon take their
course.
Respectfully, Hortense L. Smoo."

down by q crop kick, earning the
extra point. but a second drop Kick

FL Centro's individual star, Mad
