Two of the best known old-timers returlng are Hollls Hunt ington and Kenneth Bartlett. Both ot these men were In the Pennsylvania game Bartlett at tackle and Hunting ton at full.

The first of a new type of British cruiser, the Ral eigh, launched a few days ago, is ex pected to give the navy trouble to find her suitable work. The Raleigh is of 9,750 Urns with g speed of 35 knots. She was designed to hunt raiders sucn s the Moewu and the Wolf. She was given'guns larger than the (tuns usually placed on light cruisers so she might be able to outrange any commerce raider the enemy might soncl out. Now that there are no German raiders, it is conceded by the navy that she is much in the nature of a white elephant, being too costly for a light cruise) and too light for service with a battlr cruiser squadron. The Ruleigh is armed with 7.5 inch guns, provided with an underwater "bulge" which designed to make he:' torpedo proof, and is so divided thai any two of her main compartments without .endangering the vessel. Shu has anti-aircraft guns. and burns ov fuel only. IllYS FOLEY UAltllKit SHOP Joe Williams has bought tho Foley Barber shop. The purchaser hus long boon known as a first clus3 barber, although for some time he was. employed with the railroad company. He also presided over a chatr in tho Kills shop and has an extensive acquaintance with the 1 ublic. His announced purpose is to conduct his new place of business in strictly up-to-dnte manner and a welcome is extended to tho public to call on him at tho barber shop. Friday and Saturday. Douglas has been in constant train' irg with Bull Montana, Spike Robin son and Kid McCoy and, to ifuote the screen athlete, " I was in the pink ol condition when I made this film." His latest Artcraft release take? him out West, where in an effort to be unselfish, he gets into various melo dramatic mix-ups that create tneu own comedy incidents. While Fairbanks is usually of an enthusiastic nature, he feels that "Tho Knickerbocker Buckaroo" gives him greater opportunities than ever af forded him before in his screen career. He purchased a new horse, hnving retired "Star" from active service and was in daily practice with it before the start of the regular day at the studio, getting acquainted and trying new stunts.' WORRIED OVER THE AMERICAN CARS Demand Quite General for Great Bri tain for the Outside Product. (Correspondence of The Assucir.tcd Press.) LONDON, Sept. 15. Premier Lloyd George's announcement of 'tho sus pension of board of trade licencing re strictions on the importation of Amer ican automobiles was the result of an increasing preference on tho ?.- of Lug'lish motorists fer the American cars quite as much as tiie urgency of increased motor transpoit to supple ment other means of conveyance. Formerly in England there was con siderable prejudice against American made motor cars. This pie.'iulee i? now rscribed either to ignorance of their true worth or to snobbery. Ono contributor to a Britisa motor trade journal declares: "Quite honestly, there is no better value for tho money in tho motor world thnn the average American car. The point at the moment, how ever, is not exactly one of sheer vbIuc but whether, in our own beat interests in the long run, we should admit the vehicles freely, ration their import, or bar t'nem altogether. "At the present time thero is a ilcs perato shortiigo of motors in this country. Our own manufacturers, owing chiefly to circumstances over which they have no control, ire un able to meet tho demand and so, to somo extent, wo benefit immediately by importing motor vehicle fi'cni the United States. "At the same time, the fact remains that the American factories cannot, for a considerable time, meet even their own demands, yet tney are will ing to keep their market short in their attempt to consolidate and increase their foreign marketR. There is am ple food for thought, in this fact' When questioned by a deputation of Britisn automobile manufacturers oft September 22, Sir Auckland Geddes, minister for national service and re construction, gave them no hope that a tariff would be imposed on Amer ican motor cars.
