SHE'S READY FOR THE
RINK
ARCADE
1 Warner Dors His Own Swimming.
j H. B. Warner, who several years
ago won high honors on the speaking
' stage as the star in "Alias Jimmy Val
entine," recently achieved another
distinction during the production of
"The Beggar of Cawnpore," the big
Triangle feature in which he is
starred and which will be shown at
; the Arcade Wednesday and Thursday.
; It was that of being numbered among
the most daring of the Ince players.
I iWarner at first was not seriouidy
regarded as an athlete, when h6 ar-
rived at Inceville. Therefore; when
I he was handed a scripl in vvhich the
! part he was to play called for a long
swim, some of the men wno make a
business of risking their lives in
dangerous stunts concljiled that one
of their number wouliK be picked for
the task of "doublimf'' the star. But
Warner decided that no one need
"double" hm, and told Producer Ince
he would play tb part.
On the day thin, the scene was made
the air Was raw and the Playa Rel
Rey lagoan, yhieh had been selected
for the location, was still flooded with
the cold waters of one of California's
record flopd. A raft was constructed
and Lola j May, who plays the chief
supporting role, stepped on board. At
a word from Charles Swickard, the di
rector, Warner, fully clothed, plunged
into the water. Pushing the raft
ahead of him, he swam for the oppo
site shore, a distance of 200 yards. He
made the distance in safety and then
again proved his nerve had not left I
him, when he plunged repeatedly into
the water for a number of "close-ups."
He was in the water or standing on
shore in his wet clothing for more
than half a day. Afterward, he de
clared that he had enjoyed the ordeal
and was ready to undertake any other
aquatic stunt that might be written
for him.

SOUTHERNERS ARE LIGHTER.
Four to Six Pounds Difference in
Favor of the Northerner.
Washington, Oct. 3. Tiie average
weight of men south of the Mason and
Dixon line is from four to six pounds
lighter than the average weight of
men north of it, say United States
Marine Corps recruiting officers oper
ating there, in a report received at
Marine Corps headquarters today.
These recruiting officers have asked
that the minimum weight for recruits
in the south be reduced from 124 to
120 pounds, stripped.
"The large raw-boned Southerner"
is seldom seen, the recruiting officers
aver, and, while the men of the south
are as sound and fit as the men of any
other section, they are usually small
boned and light in weight. The of
ficers point out in their recommenda
tion that some of the best "hikers"
and fighters in the Marine Corps are
the lean, wiry men from the southland.
