SHOWS ABILITY
"The Valiant One" Presented
by High School Dramatic
Club Tuesday.

Displaying powerful degree of his
trionic ability, the Dramatic Club of the
Ely high school produced the sparkling
three-act comedy drama ''The Valian.
One" before large audience at the
Washington auditorium on Tuesday
evening.
The production was of a slightly diff
ferent character than those produced
in the past and its staging afforded un-
usual opportunities for those taking
the roles to show their acting ability
Sparkling with comedy features and
witty dialogue, all those in the cast
covered themselves with glory. The
dominating Judge Nolan, played by
Wayne Brownell, gets set back most
aSsuredly when his plans to marry his
daughter, Phyllis, played by Peggy Nc
Mahan, to the son of his business
associate went awry
Dominating his wife, Gloria Hussey
who had other plans for the daughter
she felt repaid when Phyllis, inspired
by her friend, Clara Herseth, decided to
live her own life and marry the man
of her choice and not that of the
father. Merlin Riikola played the par,
of the spoiled son, T. D., who was picked
as husband for Phyllis and this plan
was abetted by his mother, Mrs. Ray
mond, played by Frances Mae Richards
May Raymond, sister of D. T., played
by Rosemary Murn, who thought every
man was "just too cayute," injected
many laughs into the production by hel
twittering patter. Donald Butala, as
John McFarlan, a local boy, finally
triumphed, much to the satisfaction OF
the audience and all turns out we'll.
The High School orchestra furnished
the music for the play. Miss Mama
Forbes, director of public speaking in
the Ely schools, directed the production
Florence Novak was the business man
ager and Marjorie Berglund, stage
manager, in charge of properties and
costumes. The play was produced by
special arrangement with the North
western Press of Minneapolis.

 Nlederhauser, in fact, caught the only fish in the party when Arnot Hendrickson, Howard Buttons and Robert Simpson Jr. went fishing to Salisbury Point below Dupont.
 But the doleful end of this fish tale is that Assistant Chief Nieder- hauser (who says the fish is a record breaker for size) cannot find the fish in question.
 Some person or persons unknown hid, disposed of. or just plain "swiped' proud Bills fish.

COACH WEEPING TEAM ALL BACK
Kitts, of Southwest Cham pions, Believes He
 Has Troubles
By OLEN w. CLEMENTS

HOUSTON, Tex, Sept. 1.-Jim- my Kitts, Rice Institutes football coach, is a very sad man.
 Kits gets the blues every time he thinks of his 1888 team because it is so good.
 A lot of coaches would find so- lace in that, but not Kits.
 Never has a Southwest confer ence champion repeated That's what makes Kits gloomy. He's going to have a great team and the jinx says he can't win.
 "Everybody'll be laying for us, y he walls. well be lucky to win a game"
 Kitts is a very superstitiouS man.
 But there is a ray of hope for him. Ernie Lain and Ollie Cordill, those gallant sophomores of last year who brought life to team that couldn't score in it's first three games and then won the champ ionship and the Cotton Bowl game, will be back. In spring practice they taught Ernie to kick and Olie to pass. Now both are twice as tough.
 And that's not all. Two stocky lads, one named Speedy Moore and the other Hugo Stevens, got in that backfield this spring and even Jimmy finally admitted they may be as good as Lain and Cordill CT his 1884 touchdown twins, John McCauley and Bill Wallace
 Add to that some great sopho- more line prospects, phantom team that Jimmy didn't use at all last year and last years regulars, except at end and guard, three and four deep at every position.
 If the jinx hadn't been hanging around so long, Kits might have a shot at the national champion ship, and the Rose Bowl.
 We Haven't A Chance
 But Kitts throws up his hands and means at the mention of such q thing.
 We haven't got a chance" he groans. Look at our schedule, ten of the toughest teams in the world.'
 And they are tough Rice will meet Oklahoma, Louisiana State, Tulane, University of Texas, Au- burn, Arkansas, Texas A. and M, Texas Christian. Baylor and South ern Methodist, in that order.
 We'll get murdered" Kits ven- lures.
 Maybe Kits was thinking of 1895 when he had practically his entire 1884 championship team back and Rice wound up way down there and Southern Methodist went to the Rose Bowl.
 Maybe, too, Kits is just acting
 He hasn't called off any of his 1888 games.

GARY COOPER
 TELLS ABOUT BEING X STAR
It's Same Old Stuff Just Making Pictures But
 He Is Just Natural
By ROBBIN COONS

HOLLYWOOD, Sept. l. - Gary Cooper talking;
 "Bein' a stars no different Same old stuff Just maxim pictures. .'
 Speaking for himself, as he was he was right.
 I'd just watcned him go into a love scene with Merle Oberon for The Lady and the Cowboy" He wasn't any different from the Gary Cooper I've watched going into scenes countless other times
 The setting for this one was TO- mantle: A vine-hung stone sum merhouse overlooking a Florida bay So was the subject Merle looking as lovely as Miss Oberon can look, rich auburn tresses gleaming, eyes shining, filmy white gown flowing. Merle palying a vine (for the scene) more clinging than the art depart ments trellised tendrils.
 Was Gary feazed? Waiting for ! he scene to start, he ambled around like a gracefully animated tele- phone pole. He joshed little with the folks. Once in a while he laughed, out loud from deep down.
 When Director Hank" Potter Gary indicated but didn't say: Wait minute, forgot some thing" And hastily he added the Cooper touch to the Goldwyn touch on the summerhouse. High up on a stone among the vines he parked his chewing gum, then followed Oberon into camera range.
 There isn't any actor who doesn't like to work with Cooper, probably because Gary doesn't act like an actor. I'll bet he's never been the life of any party.
 He doesn't talk much. I some times think he's direct descend ant of the Sphinx. He is amiable and friendly, but he has a button on his upper lip, buttonhole on his lower. He was like this as a $5 a day extra; he's the same as a $10,000-a week star. Sometimes I think he thinks three times before speaking once.
 Jack Moss, his smooth and TO- tund manager, is his buffer Jack does the necessary arguing about scripts and money. To outward ap- pearances, at least, Gary doesn't seem to care.
 Gary's pretty smooth on his own, tough, and never doubt it. There was a time at Paramount when a new contract deal came up. Gary was newer then, not so famous There was some talk of dropping him from weekly salary, paying him by the picture. They offered $35,- 900 picture-and committed them

Most persons probably were under the impression that the snow New Years Day was quite considerable in terms of inches. But it wasn't so, because. actually. four and one-half inches of snow fell on December 31, and only three-quarters of an inch of sleet and hail after midnight - you know, New Years Eve.
 However, total precipitation for Waterbury during last year, 1887, was a little more than 54 inches, mostly rain, of course. And the pre- cipitation, as figured by James R. Walker, city plumbing inspector, in the official charts he has kept since 1887. in terms Of snow, always means melted snow.
 But 1887 saw the heaviest precipi- tation since 1884, when the total was 56.49 inches; heavier than in 1885, 34.666 inches: 1886, SOAP inches. In 192O( there fell 6o.09 inches, and in 1901, was the record for fifty years, 66.58 inches.
 Precipitation in December totalled only 2.19 inches (the melted snow i figured in this amount, as against 6.46 inches in November last year. The record month for the fifty years since 1887 was September, 1884, when 12.94 inches fell. The "driest" month was May, 1887. when the total of rain was IS of an inch.
 So far in 1888, the figure for snow, hail, sleet. and rain is 57 of an inch.
