Something New
In Entertainment

The newest cycle Of entertainment
in the motion picture world is bring
ing back to the screen the romantic
musical picture.
Though the revue type OF 'musi-
CAL has lately attained great sue
cess and again established the vogue
Of music on the screen, it has been
a long time since the theatres OF the
country have presented picture
which might be truly described as
2. musical romance" exemplified on
the stage for all time in Blossom
Time"
The forerunner Of the new vogue
is Beloved which starts tonight at
the Capitol Theatre, an epic drama
with music which presents John
Bo,cs and Gloria Stuart in featured
roles. The story presents the ro-
mantle career Of struggling COM
poser throughout his lifetime, and be-
fore q constantly changing back
ground covers a span of an entire
century. In the first scene Boles is
seen In his cradle as baby, and In
the final fade-out he appears as an
old man Of SO. Incidental to the story
the screen presents stirring pictures
Of important historical events in the
growth Of the United States, until the
final scene takes place in the year
1893.
Beloved" produced by B. F. Zeid-
man, was directed by Victor Scfert-
Finger. and the cast supporting Boles
and Miss Stuart include Dorothy Pet
erson, Edmund Breese, Ruth Hall, An

AT THE MOVIES
Death Takes a Holiday
Ranks with Years Best

A photoplay which must be included
on anyone's list of the ten best pic
lures OF 1884 opens tomorrow at the
Paramount Theatre.
It is Paramount's production of
Death Takes a Holiday" starring
Fredric March and featuring Evelyn
Venable, Sir Guy Standing and Kent
Taylor. Though directed by man
comparatively new in directorial cir
Giles. Mitchell Leisen. it is one of the
most magnificently beautiful produc-
tons ever to grace the talking
screen.
It's grandiose settings, its superb
dialogue and splendid acting make
this provocative. dramatic romance
one OF the great pictures of all time.
From the famous play by Alberto Ca
sella, adapted to English by Walter
Ferris, Paramount gave the screen
play into the capable hands of Max
Well Anderson. Pulitzer prize winner,
and Gladys Lehman.
The story is based on the intriguing
idea OF Death, the eternal shadow,
taking three day holiday that he
may come to this world to taste lifes
pleasures to the full
He comes as a gay, dashing, ro-
mantle Prince, his real person UNI
known to the guests at the house par
ty at which he makes his appearance.
For three days, he participates In
all their games and pastimes, seeking
to find some reason for mans love OF
life and fear Of death. But the prince
becomes bored with life's pleasures.
He saves the excitement OF love
until nearly the end Of the holiday.
And that, too, disillusions him. He is
unable to find an unselfish love, love
that knows no fear, a love so eternal
that even the knowledge Of his true
character would be unable to shat
ter 1t.
Almost at the end OF his stay, his
search is successful. He meets
beautiful young girl and In her arms
finds all of LIES beauty. Then his
holiday is over and. like any mortal
man, he is afraid breads to leave the
life he finds so dear.

MY dear Culbertson: For years you

Culbertson are the leading pair Of the

Deal" he said, thus ending that un-
certainty which constituted such
drag upon recovery in 1884. In 1885,
however, the Supreme Court may rule
that certain vital parts of the New
Deal are unconstitutional, thus demol-
ishing our half-built structure OF re-
covery and forcing a new beginning
under most difficult circumstances.
Business Pledges Aid.
Business is pledging cooperation
with the President, and there Is un-
doubtedly a more widespread under
standing that prosperity, both for con-
sumner goods industries and durable
goods industries, depends basically
upon the buying power of the masses.
Congress will arrange for Nation
wide unemployment insurance and
probably for old-age insurance-thor-
oughly sound business meaSures-and
millions of Americans will begin to
spend money which they have not
dared to spend before. On the other
hand, Congress may more than undo
all this good work by flirting with un-
sound radical legislation, particularly
currency imitation.
Some industries, such as the auto
mobile industry, are already leading
the way to recovery by courageously
setting cut to supply the long-re-
pressed demand. On the other hand,
our exports are still but fraction OF
their former volume, and all attempts
to retrieve this loss have so far failed.
Must play Ball"
IF business generally does play ball
with the President and the Supreme
Court does not call the game, We may
arrive at real prosperity before the
year is over Otherwise, we may flnd
ourselves in such a crisis that the
Government, against its will, may be
compelled to turn to Socialistic meas
ures as the only way in the emer-
gency to keep the masses provided
with the necessities of life.
Trying to balance all the factors,
my expectation is:
Il. There will be little improvement
during the first three months of 1885
%. There will be some Improvement
In the Spring and Summer over the
conditions of 1884, but not enough to
indicate that recovery has come.
"3. The Fall will show a marked
improvement and the trend from then
on will be definitely upward.
a. BY the Fall of 1886 we will have
50 far recovered as to make it gen.
orally evident that we are on the road
to unprecedented. real prosperity

STAFF
BY HARRY COSTELLO

From the United States Naval
Academy at Annapolis today
comes verification of the Wash
ington Times story of December
18, 1888, that Lieut.. Tom Hamil-
ton will be Navy's head coach Of
football for 1884.
AS stated in The Times of that
date, Edgar rip" Miller, head
man of football at Navy for t!1Se
past three years, will be retained
as advisory coach.
Athletic authorities at the Naval
Academy continue to refuse to
comment on the new coaching
lineup, but for two months, foot
ball men the country over have
been discussing the arrangement
which will bring Lie u enant
Hamilton to Annapolis, where he
was quarterback on the great Navy
eleven of 1926 and assistant coach
in 1927, 1928 and 1929.
Early in December
The creation by Navy author
tiles of the office of assistant
director of football for Lieuten-
ant Hamilton, indicated in early
December rip" Miller's days as
head coach of football at Navy
were numbered.
Lieut.. Comdr. John H. Brown,
jr., is director of football, and
Miller's superior officer. Natur-
ally, the assistant director OF
rootball" is next in line of author
ity to Commander Brown, thus
placing Lieutenant Hamilton over
Miller in the matter of authority.
Navy officials no doubt plan
to utilize rip" as a line coach
and on the board Of strategy.
Miller's ability as coach has
won him the respect Of the coach
ing fraternity, and the JOB he
has done at Navy is considered
one of the best in the country by
Americas best grid mentors.
Navy for some time has been
planning a graduate coaching syS-
tenn similar to the one in vogue
at West Point. The grapevine"
has had it for months that Navy
men in high positions did not
exactly like the idea of a civilian
being in charge Of Navy athletic
activities. These Navy chiefs, it
has been said, want a Navy
man in charge of all activities
pertaining to the Middies, more
for a naval reason than for any
other.
Freely Admitted
It is frely admitted on all
sides that officials at the Acad-
emy and Navy Department. think
the world and all of rip" Miller,
and planned the latter's elimina-
ton in such a manner that it
would carry no sting.
Information from Annapolis
indicates that Lieut.. Hamilton
will have LieutS. John H. Gross
and Harry j. :Hardwick as assist.
ants, with Lieut.. John N. Wilson,
present coach of the plebes,
pressed into service as an assist
ant backfield coach. Henry
Caldwell, former Navy athlete,
will also be an assistant.
Miller's new position in football
at Navy is more or less similar
to the one held at West Point by
Edgar Blaik, a civilian, who re-

TRADE WINDS
MAYBLOWAT
CONFAB
By PAT ROBINSON

NEW YORK, Feb. 6.-Starting
today, those beautifully cushioned
lounging chairs in one Of New
York's newer and swankier hotels
are due for an awful workout.
For the baseball clans are gath
cred here for the annual major
league meetings.
The boys will approve the
schedules already drawn up, there
may or may not be a few trades
of minor Importance, millions OF
words will be spilled and Powell
Crosley will have lost some OF his
faith in human nature.
Mr.. Crosley is the newest mil
lionaire to buy ball club. In one
of his weaker moments he bought
the Cincinnati Reds which auto
matically makes him a game guy,
a glutton for punishment and
philanthropist.
Intimates Naively
Mr.. Crosley naively intimates
Cd that his fellow club owners
will give him a break by making
some deals that will help him;
(2) that the Reds will make
money; and 90 the team may
finish in the first division.
Mr.. Crosley also is one OF the
worlds finest optimists as you
may gather from the fact that he
thinks the $4,000 agents he has
in his regular business which pro
duced the Crosley millions, will
act as scouts to dig up stars for
his ball club. John McGraw had
twenty-five million scouts and ex-
cept in the case Of Mel Otto he
insists they never dug up any,
thing but headaches and expenses.
Mr.. Crosley also had a mania
for speed as witness the 118 miles
an hour he has driven his car and
the two speedy planes he owns. He
even threatens to have his ball
club travel by air in the near
future.
Due Few Shocks
To a neutral observer, it would
seem the Reds will be up in the
air enough without taking an air.
plane to get there. And if he's so
keen on speed, he's in for few
shocks when he sees his new man
ager, Bob O'Farrell or Schnozzola
lombard trucking down to first
base.
Mr.. Crosley is also a regular
bird in every way but I fear his
frankness and innate honesty will
get him in bad with his fellow
magnates. This, however, won't
! hurt him with anybody else. For
instance, he naively admits the
Cubs offered him Cuyler, Malone
and Mosolf plus 100000 for Chick
Hafey and he turned them down.
However, Mr.. CroSley also has a
couple of assets some of his fell
low magnates lack-initiatiVe and
brains. A man can go far on
those even in baseball.
