Coach Buck" Richardson ex-
plains it that way, at any rate,
dnce every member Of this years
baseball squad is a newcomer with
The exception of Wesley Moore,
catcher, and Ray Wheeler, pitcher.

eve ought to have strong

greater number Of the boys now
out for positions will be on hand
for the next three years. This
season, it is my plan to develop
everybody in sight. We may not
win as many games as we like.
but we'll be getting a lot OF
good baseball into our systems.
Washington-Lee's infield Is an
example of the younger element
now on the roster. 1t comprises
Harold Dansburger, first base;
Tommy Simpson, second base;
Kenneth McQuinn, shortStop, and
Charles Smallwood, third base.

with Ralph Milstead, on the squad
last year, sure to make one OF the
trio battle for a regular job.
Don Cost and Jack Preston, left
handlers, and Albert Morris, right
handler. will help Ray Wheeler
with the pitching. Cost is the most
experienced of this group and will,
in all probability, get many Of the
more important assignments.

PATRIOTISM, DANCER,CASH
 SPY MOTIVES

i Mn arc prompted by patriotism alone to become secret service ag- ents, but women enter the Intelli- i gence departments solely through lcve of excitement, adventure and money This is the declaration of Walter Thiele, one of Germany's leading spies during the World War.
 The former German spy, appear ing in support of Herbert Marshall star of Till We Meet Again, com ing to the Capitol Theatre today, adds:
 Don't misunderstood me. Wom- cn did some of the most important work during the War Plenty of them were patriotic, to be sure, But, frankly, 1t was the evcr-present atmosphere of romance, mystery, i intrigue. and wealth that brought ] women into the death-dealing bus iness Of espionage"
 The story of Till We Meet i h~ain is based upon spy activi- ties in the war, and revolvcs around two stage celebrities, British mat inee idol and his fiancee, 9 Venese actress playing i'll London, who fall n love and arc called 10 thc ser vice of thair respective countries or the eve of their marriage. Mar shall is sent to Germany as spy i'll the British service and meets 1 his fianeee in a German war of flee. She unwittingly gives him away and then braves death before firing squad to save him.
 In the cast supporting Herbert Marshall are Gertrude Michael, l Lionel Atwill, Rod LaRocque and ] Guy Bates Post.
 l Letters of warning, deg mys- teriously shot. a girl Kidnapped. a chauffeur slain, another chauffeur murdered as he is being questioned, and hn ingenious and cold -bIooded play Of revenge these are the prin- cipal ingredients of Mess 'em Up, 7 with Preston Foster and Margaret Callahan, coming to the Coliseum theatre tonight.
 ] Based on a brand-neW method of detective storytelling on the screen, this RKO-Radio version Of James Edward Grants novel The Green Shadow" offers a wealth of ex- i citement and tense moments in mystery lovers. From the arrival of Foster, head of New York detec- tive agency, in California city to investigate some mysterious hap penings, to the unexpected climax, tre picture maintains it's interest to remarkable degree.
 More than dozen suspects in the Kidnapping and the killing are found by the detective. The way in which all but the guilty person are cleared makes Mess em Up something new in mystery pictures, i A notable supporting cast is head ed by Alan Wowbsay, Ralph Nor gan, Molly Lamont and Big Boy Williams. Charles Vidor directed ! from Erwin Gelsey's screen play.
