PERSONALITIES
By Nellie DOdsOn

wonder if those of you who saw
"The Invisible Man" noticed an incon-
sistency in it? Think back for a
while and see if you can remember
anything wrong about it. The incon-
sistency was this: When the Invisible
Man was trapped in the barn, he was
supposed to be entirely without cloth
ing of any kind, for you will recall
that any clothing he put on immedi-
ately took form and became visible
although the mans features could net.
be seen. Well, when he fed from TIN
barn after it was set afre, the man
himself could not be seen, but the
prints he made in the snow as he ran
showed up. Did you notice that thoss
prints were the prints of A MAN
WITH SHOES ON, instead of th3
footprints of a naked man? If he had
had shoes on, the shoes would have
been visible, but the technical adj
visers of the picture must have
slipped up on that fact. Those of you
who haven't seen the picture yet can
follow it up at neighborhood theatre
and can watch for this slip which
comes in the latter part of the pic
ture. l think it was rather a bad
error to be made in a picture which
has been ballyhooed as a super-pro-
duction.
They say that women talk more
than men do. l don't believe it. The
thing is that the difference comes in
what women talk ABOUT. Women
have a tendency to tell personal
things on themselves which they
would become enraged at if some
one else had told the same things.
Men talk about politics, news of the
day, sports, mechanics, and--women,
(even though they deny that they
drag the latter subject into the con-
versation). Their conversation can
go on for hours without a femme's
name being mentioned, but at times,
nevertheless, they have their CAB
tests at which the good and bad
points of various fair ladies are
culled over very thoroughly. But
members of the masculine sex haven't
that tendency to reveal things about
themselves which can let them in for
blackmail, while some gels tell things
about their private lives which, if
such information should be used
against them, would wreck their
regulations for good. Get three or
four femmes together and before very
long they are discussing men and ex-
periences. (I'll bet lot of sheiks
around these towns would leave on
the next train if they knew that most
of the girls they know are very much
acquainted with intimate details of
their lives.)
People now have to become edu-
Gated to appreciate good liquor. Those
who drank before prohibition have,
for the most part, forgotten what real
liquor tastes like, while the younger
generation is entirely at sea in re-
gard to knowing and choosing the
various brands of wines and liquors
which repeal will put on the market
once more. In the February issue of
the Cosmopolitan, there is an article
by LOUIS BOFFO, famous European
hotel proprietor, and it is decidedly

COAST LEAGUE
SEASON WILL
OPEN APRIL 8
BY JAMES 5. SHEEHY
United Press Staff Correspondent

The Pacific Coast league, first to
open and last to close, will start
its annual pennant chase Tuesday,
April 3. under the most suspicious
circumstances in several years.
For the opening series. the San
Francisco Missions will be at Sac
ramento: Seattle at San Francisco.
Hollywood at Oakland, and Port
land at Los Angeles, the 1888 cham
pionS.
Two new managers and scores of
new faces in the lineups of the
eight clubs whetted the revived in
terest of fandom.
One of baseball's most capable
leaders, Charles (Gabby) Street.
came to take charge of the MIS-
sions. He formerly directed the st.
Louis Cardinals to championships.
Manager Ike Caveney also
strengthened the San Francisco
Seals. insuring two strong teams in
the key city of the circuit.
Earl McNeely, popular player and
manager, purchased the Sacramento
Senator's in mid-winter and makes
his debut as club president and
non playing manager with the
opening game.
Walter McCreddie, successful pi-
lot of the Portland Beavers for
many years was recalled as manager
of the Portland club when Spencer
| Abbott left the team. McCreddie' S
material was not up to last years
standard but he hopes to have his
club fighting for a first division
berth.
The Seattle club. doormat of the
league in 1893, benefited from a
new deal in both finances and play
ers. In spring training the once
lowly Indians, still guided by George
Burns, showed pep and hustle sadly
lacking from previous Seattle ar
| rays.
Hollywood stood practically pat
on the lineup which battled Los
Angeles for first place in the clos
ing weeks Of the preceding season
Smead Jolley, hard hitting outfield-
er, was the principal addition &c
the Stars ensemble.
Los Angeles, guided to the pen-
nant by Jack Lelivelt, will miss its

NEW YORK. March 81. Joe
Belford, manager of the Roseland-
Dime-a-Dance palace on Broadway
today instituted a new system
among his so lovely hoStesses.
Announcement of this system,
under which intelligent converse
ton would be blended with hotcha
music and Carioca steps, sent me
hurrying into Mr.. Belford's estab-
lishment in search of a taxi dancer
who could talk informatively on
sports
Mr. Bedford has inaugurated a
card-index system for the purpose
Of informing male customers Just
what each hostess has in her head.
For example. from now on if a
man approaches the chief hostess
and he warts to dance with a
girl who can discuss the NRA, the
chief hostess is likely to pull out
a card reading as follows;
Mona Moran: 10, blonde, LOT.
hazel eyes, good at rhumba; con-
versational capabilities; money.
famous murder trials, blended
Whistles. NRA."
So, upon advising Mr.. Belford of
my occupation he scanned his files
and came out with:
"Chickie Toff: 20, blonde, Ito.
blue eyes. fair Indy hopper
Carioca: conversational capabil-
tiles: money, interior decorating,
baseball, football. bowling on the
green, tennis and golf

the floor. Miss Toff, how do you
think Connie Mack's AS will do
this year?
They're gonna fool va she
snapped IF Connie can get a
southpaw the ASH be up there in
the first division. Get off my foot.
There isn't a better infield in the
league. I'm sold on that Higgins
at the hot-corner. He's gotta swell
whip, and he can slap that potato.
Is my slip showing?
1T isn't? Thanks. and leave off
that Miss Toff' business. My names
Chickie. Like Chickie Meehan, the
football coach, who went from
Syracuse to N. Y. U. and then
to Manhattan. What's Yours?"

We drifted into a corner where
the shadows were deep. The violins
were whispering Kiss Me Again"
and Miss Toffs-I mean Chickie's
little fluffy, blonde head. was close
to mine. And I was thinking: All
Of this for 10 cents" I was lulled.
DO you think Connie Mack is

rupted Chickie.

STANFORD STAR
CHANCE
FOR FORT UNE

SAN FRANCISCO, March 81. U,H
William C. CBilD Corbus, ALL
American football player, " walked |
out" on the opportunity to operate
a large company and possibly to
inherit sizeable fortune in order
to make his own way in the world,
it was learned today.
Il wanted independence ex-
planned the dark-haired youth
whom classmates at Stanford I'm
iversity considered as the student
most likely to succeed in life.
An almost unprecedented OPP
portunity to achieve that success
with dazzling rapidity was offered
Corbus upon his graduation this
summer His brilliant college career
included both athletic and schol-
astic triumphS and brought him the
presidency of the Stanford student
body.
Joseph Monroe Bolts, head of the
American Marine Paint company,
offered Corbus a place in his Or
ganization Friend of the athletes
/ father and interested follower of
the youths college career. Bolts
planned to move his protege ahead
rapidly in the large concern, 1t
was said.
Friends also understood that SO
! much was the paint manufacturer
, attracted to Stanford's outstanding
! student that he planned to make
provision for the youth in his will.
After a month with the firm,
the football star suddenly left the
organization. He obtained posi-
ton with a chain store company.
Bolts, disappointed by Corbus'
choice, repeatedly changed his will.
, The paint manufacturer died this
month.
Corbus was quoted as saying that
he had had no quarrel with Bolts
but that he wanted to go on his
own" and liked the chain storS
work better.

Ten or more delegates will reps resent the independent republican party of waterbury at the state convention of the organization in New Haven on August 18th. Mrs Mabel Preusser, member of the state central committee of the party from this city, stated this morning that preparations are now. underway to have the local dele- gates selected.
 That she will support the nom- nation of a dry candidate, only, on the party's ticket, was eInphat- icaIly declared to-day by Mrs Preusser. Despite the fact that re- peal has been brought about, Mrs Preusser, who, incidentally, is county president of the w. c. T. U., feels that a. sufficient number of "drys'' should be in the state government in order to bring about legislation favorable to the inde. pendent republican party.
 "I feel that there are no repre- sentative 'drys' offered us on the republican and democratic tickets. therefore the independent party will put some into the field,'' said Mrs Preusser.
 Possible Candidates
 It is possible that Nathan B. Stone of New Haven will be nomi- mated for governor on the inde- pendent ticket. However, this IS

NEBRASKA RIVER
 CONTAINS GOLD
Samples of Sand Sub- mitted Stirs Up Hopes
 for Profit

Pauline, Neb (UP)-Hopes for profitable mining of gold from de- posits of and along the Blue riv- CT, between Pauline and LeRoy, were given a boost by reports of assay offices on samples Of the sand submitted for inspection.
 Two samples analysed at Dem yer are reported to have shown flour gold present in the sands in the amount of more than $5 per ton.
 Recently, a number of sample borings have been made to deter mine whether the gold is present over a large area, or is restricted to the pocket from which the first samples were taken. Nearly a dozen borings were made and the samples taken from sand at water level.
 Several mineral leases on land in this vicinity have been obtained within the past several weeks. If further assay reports show that the flour gold can be obtained from an extensive area, machinery for it's removal probably will be brought here.
 Presence of gold in the Blue river sands has been known for some time, but processes for its profitable extraction have been de- veloped only recently.
