MAKING HIT IN FL MD0M
 WITHOUT DAD
Katherine and Agnes De Mile Are Stepping
 Along, Hollywood
By ROBIN COoNs

HOLLYWOOD, Cal, May 26.- When the daughter of De Mile undertakes a dramatic career she does it "on her own" without help or hindrance from father.
 That holds, apparently, whether the daughter is Cecil B.'s Rather inc or Williams Agnes.
 But both Katherine and Agnes are now in pictures.
 Katherine, adopted daughter of the Cecil B. De Miles, began in pictures as an extra, just to see how she liked them. She found she did, very much, and soon was geetting good roles, including those in Viva Villa" and "The Trumpet Blows ws"-not under her fathers di- reetion. She refused a role in Cleopatra offered by an assist ant of her fathers, because she didn't want it said that her name or her fathers influence had furth- ered he screen career. She chose instead part in Mae Vests Tt Aint No Sin"

AGNES DE MILE DANCES

There recently arrived in Holly wood, from London, William De Miles daughter, Agnes, whose ex- perience in starting her career rather closely parallels her cousins. Agnes is going to dance in uncle C.. B's Cleopatra
 Agnes, whose career is dancing rather than acting, got her first job from her father, but under scarcely flattering circumstances. She owed it to uncle c. B.
 Tt was when my uncle was making The Ten Commandments, and he had hired all the dancers in Los Angeles" she says. My own father happened to be needing dancers for a picture he was mak- ing at the same time, and there was nothing else for him to dol was about the only dancer my uncle wasn't using on his set, so father hired me.

New York, April 4.-UP)-
Sometime to-day, in bare, black
cage pitched in the center of Madi-
son Square Garden, Clyde Beatty
will have showdown with Sammy.
The showdown will come before
the doors are. thrown open to the
children who make up circus mat
inee crowds. There will be no
bands. The Gardens 10000 seats
will be bare. re only witnesses
will be the roustabouts who handle
the chute down which Sammy will
stink into the arena.
Beatty will meet Sammy there,
with the iron door of the cage
banged shut. Sammy is a 600
pound lion, with teeth the size of
u mans fingers, and his tawny
paws, big as flatironS, are studded
with rake-Iike claws. Beatty
weighs 1876 pounds with his boots
on, and his armor will consist of q
kitchen chair, whip, and an iron
nerve.
Beatty has been planning the
showdown ever since that day in
Cleveland a month or two ago when
Sammy, up until then a law-abid-
ing member of the big cat act,
sprang from his perch and sank his
teeth in the throat of lioness.
Beatty and his rousta bouts pounded
Sammy across the head with a
club. They yanked at him with
cruel steel hooks. They turned a
fire hose on him. But not until
the lioness was dead did Sammy
loosen his grip.
He was removed from the act
and placed in solitary. He's been
there ever since. To-day Beatty
will find out If what he fears Is
true-that Sammy has turned kill

"He acts like a Killer" Beatty
told me. There's no play in him
any more. Not even mean, hate
full cat play. When I walk along
the cages where my cats are quar-
tered, all of them but one growls
or tries to slap at me when pass.

FAIRFIELD PIN
TOPPLER BEATS
BIG jim O'LINDY

Tony 1annarOne of Fairfield and
a member of the Connecticut Yank-
eos accomplished something over
the weekend that few bowlefs
have been able to do and that is
to defeat the renowned Jim o.
Indy on his own alleys.
The Connecticut bowler rolled
854 for seven games to win by 10
pins, giving him an average of
122 per game which Is good bowl
ing on the type of alley prevalent
in Quincy.
AS result of the defeat O'Lindy
is expected to take part in the
Fairfield County sweepstakes on
April 14th since it offers him an
opportunity to clash again with the
Pride of Fairfield. The Quincy
bowler in all probability will be
accompanied by some of his bench
men who will also take part in
the sweepstakes as complime
TO the Fairfield boWlers place in
the bowling world.
The sweepstakes, a thought of
Tony Ianarone and to be conduct
ed at his alleys, is beginning to
rank as one of the most import
ant events in its class this sea-
son. The capitol prize of one hum
dfcd dollars is a sure guarantee of
large entry and this. coupled
with Tony Iannarones popularity
throughout the state indicates that
| it will be the best patronized
sweepstakes of the season.
The competition Is six games
| total pinfall to count, and the
games commence at 200 p. m
running through to midnight.

PROVIDENCE REDS
SEEM ASSURED OF
CANAAN TROPHY
Only One More Win To-
night Needed to ClinCh
Ice Championship

Providence, II. I. April 4-(UP)
yesterday and hoping for the as
sistance of Myles Lane, big de-
fenseman, the Boston Bruin Cubs
were ready to fight to the last ditch
when they meet the Providence
Reds here tonight in the third
game of the series for the Fon-
tainecup, emblematic of the Can
an-American Hockey league
championship.
The Reds won the first two
games of the three-out-of-fi Sc
ries, and another victory tonight
will give them the title and cup
which is being defended by the
Cubs. On the other hand, the Cubs,
to retain the cup, are faced with
the almost impossible task of win
ming three straight games. IL the
Cubs win tonight, the fourth game
will be played in Boston tomorrow,
and il fifth Is necessary, 1t will
be played in Providence Sunday.
Uncertain
The Cubs received permission to
use Lane, former Cub who fin
ished the season with Bruins of
the National league, but it was
doubtful IL he would play. Lane
has been off skates for three weeks
and Is tied up at Harvard in his
capacitl as backfield coach of the
football team.
If the Reds win tonight, it will
mark the third time that they have
beaten the Cubs three straight in
Fontaine cup series.

Long range shooting of sensa-

crowd of fans on edge most of the

Harry Cashin's Worden Mixers a
1888 win over Scovill entry and
the chance to play Chase for the
title OF the Industrial League next
week at the YMCA.
Lost the Lead
Beaten twice by the Scovill
troupe, the Worden lads were
handicapped from psychological
standpoint, as well as having the
added worry of holding HOWE
Kraft in check, inasmuch as the
agile young man scored rs points
against them last week. Scovill
earned an early lead and kept 1t
to within six minutes of the reg
ulation finish, when couple of
hoops by Paddy Quilter and Sonny
Connell tied up the contest at 80
all. Connell and Stevens bagged
three points in the extra period
while a free throw was the limit
of the Scoyill pointing. Connell and
Quilter divided % points, Joe
Swasey helping out well on de-
Tense while Kraft, Keefe and Car
rington were the Scovill standouts.

RULING BRITISH
GOLF BODIES IN
RULE SQUABBLE
Ladies Union Strongly
Advised Not to Upset
Dictates of Ancients

London (UP).-The Ladies' Golf
Union, which rules women's golf
in Britain, is q low unto itself.
So is the Royal and Ancient
club. which controls the mens
game.
Both have more rules than they
know what to do with. But the
l.. G. u. leads, because 1t always
is making new ones. And this with
a fine disregard for the r. and A.
The result has been some
"strong advice" from the r. and
A. to the L. G. u.
Although the advice" dealt
only it'll one specific rule intro
duced by the omen's union, 1t was
regarded as a warning from the
r. and A. that it did not intend
to have its right to lay down the
law to British golfdom infringed
by mere women.
Relations have been somewhat
strained for some time. They
reached q climax during the. Brit
ish women's open championship,
at Gleneagles, Scotland, last year.
Because that part of the country
Is subjected to sudden, violent,
summer stors, the l.. g. U. in
stituted q special signaling sys-
tenn, by means of sirens, to warn
players of the imminence Of a.
thunderstorm, SO that they might
take shelter.
Now the rules Of golf, as issued
by the r. and A., specifically state
that IL weather prevents play in
championships for any length of
time, the hole of that days play
shall be cancelled.
So when they heard about this
new rule of the women, the r. and
A., in high dudgeon, quickly COM
municated with the L. G. u,
Strongly advising the union to
abandon the principle"
The omen capitulated. The
l.. G. u. decided to reconsider its
nice ne wrule.' SO, stormy weather
or not, the women will just have
to get all wet, as the men do.
