"Footloose Wid- ows" on Monday and Tuesday is a very pleasing picture--a de luke adventure of a pair of husband-hunting gold- diggers. It's smart, brightly sophisti- cated, swift, gay and surprising. It's just the kind of picture that keeps one giggling from start to finish. "The Unwanted", Wed. and Thurs., is not altogether a war picture, al- though it has a number of scenes taken behind the German lines. But if is one of the best of the British productions and one you should see. But the real comedy of the year is "The Cohens and the Kellys" which wiil be shown Nov. 5th-6th. We per- sonally guarantee this to be he fun- niest thing ever seen in pictures. The whole town will be taking about it for weeks. The Freshman orchestra will play the music score for this picture.

In fact, afier the final disastrous third came the Pitt aggregation looked like a load of hay that had been struck by o silk train thirty minutes late en its schedule.' : Bob McMonagle, who had made him- celf famous in the previous game, was too finely trained down and could not stand the pace--failing to bunch his] usual run of strikes and failing to make his spares--the supposition being that he considered it unsportsman-like to "pick" upon one lonely pin. "Jock" Hardie's first game was such that he has requested that the figures be not published. = We agree that his request should be respected. How- ever, on the second game all the fight- ing blood of 'Jock's' Scotch ancestors arose in his veins and he rolled one of the finest league games recorded in 2 league series--filling the ten frames without a miss for the splendid count of 196, which was the highest score of the series. ; J. A. ('Tiny') Payne, again came out with the highest three game score, aithough he was having a hard run of luck--what appeared to be perfect girike balls splitting the maples in such a manner that nothing short of a "lasso" could have brought about a spare. : Capt. "Jim" Riddle of the 'Margaret' was greatly wissed from the game. The Margaret was being buffeted by head winds and unable to make port in time for the game, without taking a reef in the Rudder and hauling the Teel on deck, and was forced to lay- to on a lea shore. Rerrey, Campbell and Skillen rolled creditable games, having the benefit of the breaks, while Foulis and J. A, Pitt were running: in the toughest kind of luck. " BENE The date for the deciding game of the series has not vet been named. Both teams are confident of winning-- everything imaginable is being wager- ed on the result.
