more amusing foot ball rah-rah
stories.
This is due to several major ac-
complishments: In the first place,
Novarro does not win the foot ball
game; he Is not tapped for Skull and
Bones. and he does not make love to
Madge Evans in the middle of a
Harvard-Y Yale struggle. AS the sturdy
(played volcanically by Henry
Armetta), who wins scholarship
at Rudy Vallee's ex-home Of learn
ing, he is, in the words of the script,
not anxious to be a hero, but merely
a member of the gang" He gets
there finally, after long and bitter
struggle during which he has played
in a foot ball game with a bursting
appendix.
Good all-around entertainment
Except certain sob moments toward
the last) this is the kind of picture
which Novarro enthusiasts feared
for and which has turned out much
better than even the optimists could
have hoped for. Novarro plays his
role enthusiastically and doesn't seem
to mind getting his face dirty. In
fact, the dirtier his face the better
and the younger he looks. He is
assisted, too, by an excellent cast, in
which the aforementioned Henry
Armetta shines most particularly
but which also includes splendid
services by John Arledge and Ralph
Graves-as also Madge Evans. look

AGENCY IS FIGURE
IN B|GAMy CHARGE
"BIuebeard" and Ohio Man
Both Used Matrimonial
Mart to Secure Brides.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
ATHENS, Ohio, May 21-The same
matrimonial agency that served Harry
Powers, the West Virginia "Bluebeard,"
was blamed by authorities today for the
trouble in which George N. Stevens, SO
years old, finds himself.
Stevens is charged with having five
wives, all of whom he met, police said,
through the American Friendship So
ciety, a matrimonial agency now out Of
business.
Michigan authorities said they we're
told that Stevens wives include Blanche
Burch of Athens, Mrs. Lulu E. Burke
of Plainwell, Mich; Mrs. Cora Hamil-
ton of Union City, Mich; Mrs. Utha
Liggett of Magnetic Springs, Ohio, and
an unidentified woman in Oberlin, Ohio.
Defrauded Several
Stevens, arrested here yesterday, was
alleged to have defrauded several Of the
women OF jewelry and money. The
bigamy complaint was made by Mrs.
Burke, who said she married him in
September, 1881, and that he deserted
month later, taking $11 and a check
book.
State police, said the latest of the Stew
ems weddings was performed last Satur-
day in Catlettsburg, KY, with the Ath-
ems woman as the bride.
Stevens spent about one month with
each wife, Lieut.. Hutson said, and then
departed with whatever cash and val
uables they possessed.

Blonde Captive"
At the Metropolitan.

Blonde Captive,
At the Metropolitan.
WHILE the shots of tribal ladies
w of Northern Australia, who are
called Gin" (when you want your
wife you merely cry Here Gin-here
GinrD, are extremely interesting, as
also the ceremonies in which a
youth. by having his two front teeth
knocked out, rises to the state OF
man, the film Blonde Captive"
with its theatric ending, Is not quite
as blistering as the lurid posters
suggest. Large audiences, however,
at Warmers Metropolitan yesterday
found much of this Paul Withing-
ton expedition to, Australia extreme
ly interesting-and the fact that
Lowell Thomas, sometimes amusing
and sometimes not, does a Graham
MacNamee all the way through,
helps it or not-aS you Will.
Oddly enough, however, the Blonde
herself, who is the cause for all the
publicity shooting, seemed to these
eyes extraordinarily dark-in fact,
if she isn't as mud-colored as her
Neanderthal husband then Gin never
was Gin-which 1t isn't in these
parts. This lady, whose hair ap-
parently decided to become plati-
mum color (even in the land where
they have never heard of Jean Har-
low, has a small infant, whose hair
is also of the same variety. This
fact has led the expedition TO state
on oath that this lady, once welded
to a pearl fisherman OF white de-
scent, was stranded on these dreary
shores. and that ever since she has
lived there with tribeSmen who are
at the far end of the human calen-
dar. In fact, although they do not
let you hear her-which might very
easily have been accomplished, If
it were true-they tell you that she
can speak English quite well, but
that she prefers the strange Ian
guage of her deep, dark husband.
This part of the film Is far from
convincing. The way in which she
waves a theatric adieu to the ex-
pedition from the summit Of a great
cliff, an adieu which looks as If it
had been rehearsed many times,
clinches the theory that fiction has
become stronger than fact, and tnat
this "act" was probably cooked up
merely for the sake of boxof1ce lu-
bilation.
However. the sightseeing trips
through Bali, Pago-Pago, the Fiji
Islands and the north Of Australia
are quite stimulating. And, while
the main theme of the story Is the
search for Neanderthal man, the
main interest comes from seeing
mammoth turtles, that lay eggs by
the dozens; seacows, kangaroo and
various degrees. of Malay debutantes
who somehow do not compare, al
though Mr.. Thomas seems 10 think
SO, with similar products from May
Fair, Park Avenue, or the Champs

STEVENS CAN HAVE
 YALE JOB AGAIN RUMOR REPEATS
Showing of Blue Against Princeton and Harvard Sure to Bring Another Offer

New Haven, Conn, Nov 23.-- (UP)-Dr Marvin A. Stevens can be reappointed Yale's head foot ball coach if he wants the job. it was understood today-provtng once again that Yale measliree a coach's success by his record against Harvard and Princeton more than against early season op- ponents.
 The early fan rumors of '.shake- ups's in the Yale coaching stan and a possible demand for Stevens resignationr were hushed when the Ellis came back after a disastrous start to beat Dartmouth, tie a fa- vored Princeton team and swamp Harvard.
 The Yale Daily News, fair barometer of prevailing undergrad- uate opinion. has already come out vigorously in favor of retaining Stevens and his corps of assistants. The Yale Alumni Weekly is ex- pected to voice a similar sentiment Friday.
 Scattered expressions of alumni sentiment favor continuance of the present coaching regime. which has produced successive wins over Harvard in the last two years.
 Adam Walsh, Notre Dame alumnus and Yale line coach, told a gathering of Yale graduates at Waterbury last night "Mal Stevens is a real type of leader of Yale men on the gridiron. Students and players like him. They are for him 100 per cent and the alumni should hop on the old band wagon and keep him at the helm of the Yale football squad"

By HENRY nfdnE1IORE

Limited Press Stan Ckrespondent)
 New York, Nov 2e-(UP)-The Amateur Athletic Union which, we believe, is the oldest and largest of American amateur sports goyering bodies. has finally got around to adopting the metric system of measurement for all its track and field events.
 The new measurement will go in effect January 1, I933. It should have been in operation since 1923. the year it was first proposed. Just why the A. Ar U. 'ers were so long in seeing the light, is not quite clear. Some say that they were held back by patriotism: that they just couldn't bear to see the United States give in to France Germany, Italy and ali the other nations who used the metric sys- tenn.
 Others argue that the err6neous belief that a switch from yards and inches to metres would spoil American tracks and call for a wholesale change in layouts was | the cause of the long delay. This probably comes close to being the real reason, for only yesterday, when the change was brought be- fore the national body, Mfr Fred Steers of Chicago, Q man who knows the ins and outs and where- fores of track and field, rose to his feet and told the delegates the adoption of the metric business would "spoil and ruin of this coin- try's tracks,"
 Steers, as well as the others who believed as he did, were shown they were wrong by A. c, Gilbert, the millionaire toy manufacturer, Olympic vaulting champion of 1908, and just about the most .rabtd track and field follower in these United States. Gilbert point ed out that by the mere shifting of the start of. a standard race a yard or two either way any metric distance could be substituted for any yardage distance on any track without interfering in the least with the layout of the course. Moreover, Gilbert pointed out that in the shorter races like the 400 metres, the substitution of the metric measure would really be an advantage in that it would place the starting pits well in advance of the finish line.
 The A. A. U. probably saw the light on the metric business at the last Olympic games when Bill Carr and Eddie Tolan gained interna- tional recognition by smashing recofds in metres instead of yards and inches. Had Tolan and Carr smashed records in yards and in- cnes the world would have paid little attention, because America and England are the only coun- tries that deal in these terms.
 The I. c. A. A. A. A. will also begin the use of the metric system the first of the year. At it's last meeting the college body agreed to make the change the moment 1t was passed by the A. A. U. This puts Great Britain on the spot, SO to speaksand 1t would not be all surprising if that country beat a nasty retreat and got in step with the rest of the world.
