LIVINGSTON GETS |
A SECOND PLACE
Team Runners-Up for First
Place in District
Tournament.
This year was the first year that
the Livingston School has entered
the District Tournament, and they
were the outstanding team, being
the runner up for first place. The
first game the girls played was
with the fast team from Jonesboro.
This was a hard-fought game from
start to finish, but by close guard
ing and accurate shooting, Living
ston won by a close score of 35 to
32. As Jonesboro had been picked
as a winner, this game upset the
dope of the tournament, and Liv
ingston was placed as the dark
horse in the tournament, The
second game played was an easy
winner, with Senoa, the score be
ing 61 to 21. All the substitutes
had a chance to get on the floor
during this game, The third
game was against another strong
contestant for the trophy, but by
hard playing, the game was won
by a score of 37 to 34. Hogans
ville showed power all the way
through, but was overcome during
the last quarter, the score was
tied several times during the game.
Friday night brought us face to
face with one of the best teams in
the district, Thomaston, and this
was anybody’s game from start to
finish, but Livingston nosed her
wa»y out again by a close score of
29 to 26.
The final game for first place
was played on Monday night.
This was very exciting from start /
to finish, as two of the strongest!
teams were playing, but the little
team from Gay beat us by five
points. The score was 33 to 28.
Livingston scored more points
than any other team in the tourna
,
ment. Their total score was 190
points against 146 for their oppo
nents. We feel ijvery proud of
our team, as this was their first
entry in the tournament, and to
win second place makes them feel
that their efforts were not in vain.

FREE PICTURE AT
STRAND THEATRE
Callaway Motor Company To
Sponsor “These Thirty
Years.”
“These Thirty Years,” a new
talking picture produced by the
Ford Motor Company, is to be
shown at the strand Theatre.
Complimentary tickets are be
ing distributed by Callaway Mo
tor Company, under whose aus
pices the local showings are being
held.
The story of “These Thirty
Years begins 30 years ago in the
town of Brookfield. Dave Haines
and his aged mother see their
farm and everything they own put
on the auction block to satisfy a
greedy mortgage holder. During
the action, however, Dave becomes
inspired by a “horseless carriage”
seen tearing down a rutted coun
try road at the neckbreaking speed
of 20 miles per hour. He sees a
great future in automobiles and
wants Jed Travers, local livery
stable owner, to go into business
with him. Jed withholds his de
cision until Dave proves what his
"carriage” can do in a cross-coun
try race with a horse.
Success favors Dave. He wins
the race—also the hand of May
Larcombe. They have a son,
Bo-b, who becomes a problem in
later life for he favors playing to
and spends his “dad’s”
money gambling on the stock mar
ket.
The “crash” of 19 29 catches
Bob He loses everything—in
cluding his girl, Ann Bailey, who
has been disgusted with him for
some time. Jed, the partner of
Dave, sticks by young Bob, and
saves his life on one occasion, and
finally inspires him to become the
man his dad, and Ann, would like
him to be.
The players featured in “These
Thirty Years!” include David Mor
ris, who played in “Come Easy,”

yesterday and ends at a modern
home of today.”

ATTRACTIONS AT !
RITZ THEATRE;
“Midshipman Jack,” which has
its premiere at the Ritz Theatre,
I’orterdale, next Monday and Tues
day, is one of the most entertain
ing and zestful productions re
leased thL season, enacted by a
cast of sincere young Hollywood
favorites.
Henry L. Roosevelt, assistant
secretary cf the navy, attended a
preview anu approved the techni
cal treatment of “Midshipman
Jack,” according to an announce
ment issued by the RKO-Radio
studio executives.
The production was filmed at
the U. S. Naval Academy at An
napolis, Md., by special permission.
Scores of officers and men take
part, particularly in a thrilling
submarine chasing manoeuvre
which climaxes the story.
This RKO-Radio intriguing ro
mance filmed at the United States
Naval Academy at Annapolis, vis
ulaizes many features of the fam
ous institution and an exhilarating
sea drill of submarine chasers and
airplanes, climaxing with a spec
tacular head-on crash between a
plane and a ship.
Bruce Cabot’s virility lends real
ism to his character of Jack Aus
tin. An upper-classman, Jack en
meshes himself in a web of in
trigue and” romance when he is dis
covered out after Taps carrying
out a secret love affair with the
commandant's daughter. His pe
cadillos have already taxed his
superiors’ indulgence and he is
placed on probation, violation of
which means dismissal and dis
grace.
Intensely interesting incidents,
crammed with revelations of An
napolis life, win sympathy for
Cabot when he assumes the blame
for a submarine chaser crash to
save a mate from expulsion. Thus
he stands to lose his career, and
his love besides.
“Midshipman Jack” casts in
leading roles Bruce Cabot, Betty
Furness, Frank Albertson, John
Darrow, Margaret Seddon, Purnell
Pratt and Arthur and Florence
Lake. Christy Cabanne directed.

Elwyn V. Hopkins, Manager
On December 16, 1835, a disas
trous fire destroyed most of the
commercial houses of New York
City, with a loss of $18,000,000.
It is interesting to note that a
New York daily newspaper of that
day did not print an account of
the fire. “What’s the use?” said
the editor, “everybody saw the
fire and knew all about it.”
