EX-CHAMPS FIFTH
IN CLUB SWATT|NC
Only Manush Highly Rated
in Individual Records.
Gehrig Loops Star.
BY JOHN B. KELLER.
MEXICAN LEAGUE batters hit,
on an average. 6 points better

~ on an average, 6 points better
~ this year than they did last,
according to official figures
announced today, but Washington
players, not being average perform
ers in any way in the past campaign,
failed to keep in step.
AS a club the Nationals batted but
.274 to finish fifth in the hitting lists.
However, they did outhit the Red SoX
and the Browns. two of the outfits
that outpaced them at winning
through the championship season.
With only four of them seeking
in the 800 class, and but half a
dozen winding up among the first 60
batters of the league, the Nationals
failed to show prominently in the in
dividual records. Other than Heinie
Manush, none accomplished anything
of note.
The big Dutchman, though, had a
year of it, and that despite the leg
injury that reduced his effectiveness
at the plate greatly during the last
two months of the campaign. Through
several months Heinie whacked at
great rate to lead the circuit. Then
came that charleyhorse to knock him
of the top.

CONTRAST ADDS 10 INTEREST OF COLISEUM FILM
Nina Wilcox Putnam Story of Wheat Drama Is
 Current Attraction

The gentle pastoral quality of the farm-the mad hysterical ac- tivity of the wheat pit!
 These two contrasting scenes serve as the dramatic background for Paramount's epic romance, Golden Harvest" produced by Charles R. Rogers, which opened yesterday at the Coliseum Theatre.
 Richard Arlcn and Chester Mor- ris give gt-cng capable perform ances as brothers, raised on the farm, who separate to go their own ways, Arlen as radical leader and Morris as wheat speculator.
 Julie Haydon is the farm girl and Genevieve Tcbin the city girl The story is woven by Nina Will cox Putnam and Casey Robinson far away from any pattern of oth- CT farm romances.
 Here we see the modern farmer radical and aggressive, breaking the law to save his farm, loving i his family and his soil. We see 1 spectacular r.ots and the feyered excitement of the wheat pit. The farm scenes and the pit scenes are authentic. The former were filmed during three weeks location trip to tcc wheat country near Pendleton, Oregon, ald the wheat pit scenes were shot on the floor of the Chicago Board of | Trade.
 As the story starts Morris is re- turning from European trip. It has ruined him for the farm. He is about to break off his engagement to Julie .Haydon when she tells him she loves Arlen. Morris becomes the speculator. Arlen marries Julie and stays on the farm.
 Hard times come. The large farm dwindles in size while Morris is rolling in wealth and luxury. His father and brother refuse his aid |. Arlen, the radical flrmer, starts a strike and Morris finally joins witll i him to 'bull' wheat.
 The climax is truthful and hon. est. And Golden Harve7t" is g picture of epic proportions that everyone should see.

VERSATILE STAR AT CAPITOL IN YW0OD FILM.
Marion D avies and Bing Crosby Share Honors in
 Drama of Movie Capital

Marion Dal-es, n her new star ring role in "G ping Hollywood" the Metro -Goldwyn- Mayer picture which. comes tonight to the Capitol Theatre, offers ample proof that shc is one of the most versatile dancers among the picture stars.
 Dancing said Miss Davies, has been my uppermost pleasure since my earliest childhood recollections.
 Though I began my career as a dancer in ziegfeld Follies ano later left the stage for pictures, I have never forsaken my dancing.
 T believe, in this picture, I do more dancing than in any of my previous pictures. There are four dances, and each different from the others-a tap dance, a soft shoe dance, an eccentric dance and a waltz.
 While the picture was in pro- duction, kept in practice at my home by installing a tap board and a mirror, in front of which I went through my steps each evening""
 Nor are these varied dances her only forte. Should sle be called upon by a director to do so, Miss Davies could expertly oblige with any ballroom step, classic dance, an Irish jig or even a golf dance, all Of which she is capable of de- ing.
 So, in Going Hollywood Miss Davies again dances. It is the story of a love-lorn lass who falls in love with radio crooner, played by Bing Crosby, finds him, pursIes him to Hollywood, becomes a fa- nous movie star and wins her crooner. The picture, directed by Raoul Walsh, has an ace cast in- cluding Eff D'Orsay, Stuart Er- win, Ned Sparks, Patsy Kelly and Bobby Watson. The song hits were written by Nacio Herb Brown and Arthur Freed and the dance en- sembles were directed by Albertina Rasch.

CHICAGO MILWAUKEE AGENT IS PLEASED
 WITH ALASKAN TRIP

R. E. Carson, general agent, passenger department, Oh cago, Milwaukee and St. Paul railroad, with headquarters in Seattle, is in Juneau enroute to his home office, after a trip through Alaska. MT. Carson left Seattle on the Aleu- tion September 3, travelled to Fair banks with stopovers at Cordova and Seward, and returned to Ju- neau on the Yukon Tuesday. He will remain here several days and stop over in Ketchikan on his way south.
 Nearing the end of his journey, MT. Carson is convinced that his trip has been successful. "Alaskans travel 1ot," MT. Carson said,D and I believe that those who travel east are becoming more Chicago Mil waukee- minded every year
 MT. Carson was enthusiastic over the 1884 Development Edition of The Empire, and gives it at least partial credit for the trip made to Alaska this year by H. A. Scandrett president of the Chicago-Milwau- kee. It was soon after MT. Scand- rett's receipt of the Empires spe- cial edition that he made reserva- tions for the trip to Fairbanks and Mt Mckinley Park for himself and his family.
 MT Carson is registered at the Gastineau Hotel.

Behrends followed the example by depositing his own check for $100 The Alaska Electric Light and Power Company matched the Governors contribution with another $50.
 Contributions of $5 were frequent and many others ranged down to $1. No quota was fixed by the Chapter, it was said. Juneau has always been quick and generous in it's response to such causes and we feel that it will be liberal in aiding the Nome fire victims, many of whom have lost their homes and everything they possessed" MT Behrends said today.
