THE long-hitting boys aren't going
to make that new twelfth hole at

For years past the sluggers have fig
ured on catching up on par at the
twelfth hole, which has been one of
those easy par-5 affairs. But they
are building well-trapped new green
at that hole, to be in use next spring,
which will convert the hole into a
much tougher 3-shotter than it ever
has been.
The hole won't be heightened an
inch, but they've stuck the green
around the corner Of bunch Of trees
nearer the thirteenth tee, and any
guy who reaches it in two wallops
has played two very clever shots.
We've seen the old twelfth played
with drive and mashie, but they
won't do that any more with watered
fairways and the new location of the
putting green.

Charlie hasn't won anything much,

That makes deer the premier

New Serial Begins
at Parkway Theatre
Friday of This Week

Despite the increasing tendency
toward the Oman versus interna-
tional crook type of chapter-play,
the dyed-in- the-wool serial enthusi-
asst will always retain a warm spot
in his heart for the good old-fash-
Toned western pioneer story with an
historical background.
"The Painted Stallion, 12-epi-
sode serial, will begin on the screen
of Parkway Theatre Friday and Sat-
urday, July 1924.
This exciting new serial is tale
of early New Mexico days when the
trade treaties between old Mexico
and the United States were being
ratified. Prominent in the cast OF
characters is the youful Kit Carson,
later the famous scout, and he is
portrayed in human, likeable fash
ion by freckle-faced Sammy McKim.
That depenable horseman, Hoot
Gibson, is also much in evidence and
the hero is played by stalwart Ray
Corrigan. Jack Perrin, Yakima Ca
mutt and Duncan Renaldo are other
names to thrill action fans while the
single feminine role is handled in
extensively by pretty Julia Thayer.
The Introductory chapter finds a
wicked Spanish lieutenant governor
enlisting the aid of Indians to fore
stall the arrival of the U. S. repre-
sentative, and the second sees the
wagon train surrounded by wild
savages until a mysterious rider on
a painted horse arrives and calls
them off.
