pOlnC TO TWO victories, put they

which puts them in a far more for
midable light. The Cannoneers

annapolis quintets invariably do, dis

rugged scrap before losing to highly
regarded Newcastle, came through
with their first victory against Rush
vile, repeated over Columbus last
Friday night and climaxed the string
last Saturday by dueling Frankfort
to a 31-31 tie.
Frankfort Strong Team
Frankfort has lost only one game
that to unbeaten Tipton-and has
been drawing praise from state OBJ
servers while gaining victories over
strong big Ten" adversaries.
The teams still were knotted up
after double overtime at the local
gym Saturday night. SO Coaches
Bayne Freeman and Everett Case
decided to call it a night and be
content with honors even.
The scoreboard was balanced, 80
%, at the end of regulation time.
Reeder hooked in a one-hander to
nose Tech ahead early in the first
overtime, but Vaughn came through
with his fifth basket and they were
right back where they started from.
No one could find the hoop in the
second additional session.
In five games Shortridge exhibits
one triumph, double overtime de-
cision over Greencastle. Southport,
Greenfield, Noblesville and Shelby
vile all put the Blue Devils down
for the count. Coach Kenneth
Peterman refuses to admit. discour-
agement so soon, however, being
confident that he has a potentially
strong club. Though he is glaring-
ly short-handed in beef" and
heighth, he believes he has a group
of alert and speedy ball-handlers.
Teacher VS.. Pupil
The contest this year is enrich
ened by the addition of the old
teacher VS.. pupil angle. Bayne Free
man was captain of the Franklin
High School team several years ago,
and his coach was Kenneth Peter
man, youngster, just getting his
first sample of mentioning tribula-
tons. Later, Peterman moved to
Wiley of Terre Haute and Freeman
became coach at Bedford, both pro-
ducing strong teams from time to
time.
School may be adjourned, but
basketball practice goes right on
for the boys on the teams. They're
because they've got some
things on their minds they hope to
settle. The Shortridgers want t.
make amends for their string of
setbacks. The Techites are anxious
to paint over two black marks
placed on their record last year by
their most rivalrous foe.

Life Begins Is
Here Monday

Lee Shubert is presenting the
New York Wil9ter Garden revue,
"Life Begins at S:40," at the Ma
tional Theater one week only
commencing Monday night, with
matinees on Wednesday and
Saturday.
Life Begins at $40" is a John
Murray Anderson production by
Ira Gershwin, E. Y. Harburg,
David Freeman and Harold Arlen.
It has been lighted and staged
by Mr.. Anderson; the dialogue
has been directed by Philip Loeb;
the dances and principal numbers
staged by Robert Alton and the
production designed by Albert
johnson.
Mr.. Shubert has brought TO-
gether for Life Begins at $40"
the most amazing collection of
talent that has ever been seen
in a Winter Garden entertain
ment. Among those prominent
in this revue are Bert Lahr, Ray
Bolger, Luella Gear, Frances Will
iams, and the selfsame New
York cast including Brian Don
levy, Josephine Huston, Esther
Junger, Dixie Dunbar, Ofelia
and Pimento, James McColl, Jack
Starr, Walter Dare Wahl, the
Charles Weidman dancers and
the world-famed New York Win
ter Garden Beauty Brigade-be-
witching beauties from Brodway.

Lowe-M'Laglen
Dig unnel .

Although it follows a conVen-
tional path, "Under Pressure,
which opened at Loew's Columbia
Theater yesterday, deals with the
sand hogs" who build tunnels,
has a certain animal vigor about
it and is the sort of thing that
Victor McLaglen, Edmund Lowe
and Charles Bickford can act to
everyone'S satisfaction.
Consequently, even though 1t is
an innocuous job Of professional
film-making, it has a hardihood
of plot that should appeal to
moviegoers who like adventure
yarns and don't care much about
probabilities or even possibilities.
What these moviegoers want Is
action and plenty Of it, and on
that score they can have no COM
plants to make about Under
Pressure" except, possibly that
the author and the director have
not made the most Of their op-
portunities.
They have a new background
that surrounding the building
of a tunnel under the East River
and they have, too, since these
men are trapped in the tunnel,
almost automatically, the making
of an exciting film.
But the whole thing with its
grim and muscular strength, its
colorful characters and its big
thrill, when one or the men is
helplessly trapped in the flooded
tunnel, seems forced, fabricated.
In short a reasonably interesting
effort misses it's high mark.
Shocker and Jumbo, amiable
enemies and foremen of the gang
digging the tunnel from the
Brooklyn end, forget their petty
squabbles to lead their crew to vic
tory over their Manhattan rivals.
When Jumbo'S leg becomes para
lyzed as a result Of saving Shock
er's life-Shocker gets trapped in
the tunnel-Shocker leads the
gang on to the completion Of
their task and then gives Jumbo
a chance to punch his way through
the last "ring" to victory over the
leader of the Manhattan contin-
gent.
Marjorie Rambeau and Florence
Rice are the chief members of the
cheering section that spurs the
Messrs. McLaglen and Lowe on to
punch and dig their way to vic
tory over Mr.. Bickford and his
cohorts.

Will Rogers As Country Editor
In life Beams at 40"

In successive pictures Will Rogers,
has played a village druggist, a
small town Judge, a rural politician
and now, in Life Begins at 40,"
at the Palace, he is the country
editor.
In all these pictures he encount-
ers and solves much the same
difficulties. He still is principally
occupied in finding a suitable
wife for the poor but deserving
country youth and frustrating the
towns richest citizen. Life Be-
gins at 40" is on par with "The
County chairman" estate Fair"
and others.
AS the editor of the Plainville
Citizen Kenesaw Clark makes lit
tie money but has great deal OF
fun keeping the torch of journal
ism bright "by printing all the
news you can expect for $3.50 a
year."
Everything is hunky-dory until
he befriends a young chap who
has just come out of Jail. This
shocks the towns moral sense,
particularly that of a politically
ambitious and righteous banker.
Probably the most amusing of
many humorous scenes in the
picture is the episode wherein the
editor and his cronies break up
the bankers hog show by import
ing some talented hog callers.
The editor himself demonstrates
his ability to lure a tiny porker
away from his mother by his
below.
Slim Summerville plays the
towns champion whittier. He is
funnier in this picture than in
most of the short features in
which he formerly starred.
Rochelle Hudson and Richard
Cromwell supply the romantic in
terest and George Barber and
Jane Darwell have good roles.
How long Will Rogers can hold
his public by feeding them the
same tale in a new setting is
problematical. Perhaps his studio
should provide him a change of
scenery and an opportunity to dis

wife.
A very good story even if it is a
little complicated and requires
concentration for full enjoyment.
There are three very good produc-
tion numbers that give Chevalier
a chance to sing and shake a
lively foot. They are Rhythm of
the RAIN" eau Revoir, L'Amour"
and Singing a Happy Song"
The first is sung and danced in
a very wet downpour. The last
employs sundry straw hats and
is shot from q dozen different
camera angles. 1t is a number
that will make Busby Berkeley
jealous, inasmuch as it was con-
ceived by Dave Gould.
Chevalier is livelier and hap
pier than in his recent roles.
Merle Oberon, the English beauty,
is made up like Madame Butter
fly, /. e. in makeup that accentu-
ates her Oriental look. She acts
well, wears some stunning clothes,
but looks like the 1880 Myrna
10y. Ann Sothern plays the other
important role adequately. "Folles
Bergere," to sum up, is a farce
story with music, and a good one.

for the stage show and one that
can fill the microphone and loud
speakers with the richest kind OF
