of the screen's best known and most
capable directors, presided, over the
megaphone during the production of

Slaughter Wins
Over Davis In
Champ Y Game
(By 8am Woods)
iDr. Slaughter's team made three
runs in the first inning that spelt de
feat to the Whltey Davis fleet at tbe
“Y” lot yesterday and thereby gives
the Slaughter nine the championship
Bob McWhorter, at short, and Dean,
in tbe left garden, did line playing
for Slaughter. Ed Dorsey, on Wbltey's
team, brought tbe fans to their feet
by making a fine catch at short.
An overhanging limb in left Held
prevented Bob McWhorter in making
a home run, yet he stretched it Into
a three-bagger. Whltey Davis made
the lone score for his side, hitting a
home run.
A big crowd was out lo witness the
gamy, with plenty of spirit and pep
and yelling like a Georgia-Tech crowd.
Bedgood umpired balls and strikes,
while W. T. Forbes called them at
tbe plate. The llne-upe were as fol

Eva Novak, the young girl who
won Instantaneous fame through her
dramatic work in "Wanted at Head
quarters,'' is coming to the Elite
Theater today and tonight in "Wolves
ofthe North," her most recent photo
drama, In which she does her best
work.
The story was written and directed
In the far north by Worman Dawn, the
Universal director, and Is a darglng
narrative of the struggle of two men
for one wrknan in the land where
primitive passions rule and a mao
takes his mate according to his
strength and valor.
In no picture of recent years has
nature played such a dramatic role.
The action was recorded by the cam
era while an arctic gale lashed tower
ing pints into a frenxy and the earth
was blanketed with a trackless 1m
menslty of snow.
The spell of tbe north! Its roaring
silences and Its forbidding warning to
weaklings not to trespass Its border*. I
Is suggested in the brilliant photog- 1
rapby by which some of the moat 1
awe-inspiring scenery of tbe polar-arc ,
was recorded by the cameras
A cast of unusual ability will be
seeit In tbe supporting roles. Oppo
site Miss Novak plays Herbert Heyes
The second masculine lead it Inter
preted by Starke Patterson, while
Psrcy Challenger, William Eagle-Eye
and Clyde Tracy all have roles well
suited to their vigorous personalities.
The feminine side of the cast abounds
In beauty. Barbara Tennant, who
will be teen aa a woman of tbe north*
era mining camps, is a great screen
favorite, while Millie Xmpolltp, a spec*
tacular Spanish beauty, plays a role
that baa sufficient fire to melt the
•now of tbe locale.
