a 1318 YEAR OF 'BIG LAST WEEK BIG FEBRUARY CLUB SALE THE" MORNING ' OREGONIAN, MONDAY, : FEBRUARY 23, 1920 Trade Gales Blow Hard but Mean Little. RUTH DEAL IS EXCEPTION iODtT Kotn Becomes Known as Quick-Change Artist of Big Leagues. NEW YORK, Feb. 22. (SpecIaL) Kext to the ball game Itself there is nothing in baseball in which the fan finds greater interest than in the winter trades and deals. He can get more excited over a trade involving aeveral mediocre players than in all the politics ever played in baseball. Trading hasn't been as brisk as Usual this winter. There has been plenty of trade talk and lots of negotiations, but most of the trade winds proved mere gusts of hot air. Clubowners and managers were will ing enough to trade, but they all tried to be David Haruma, so few 4eaU were put over. It has been a winter in which man agers refused to trade "a dime for a ten-cent piece." Very often man agers trade for mere trading's sake, figuring players have been in their town too long and that a change of scene may help a player who had fallen into a rut in a rival town. fiuch deals usually are even ex changes, such as the Magee-Marsans deal in 1917. Magee had fallen down badly with the Yankees after estab lishing a great Federal league repu tation, and Marsans proved a bloomer with the Browns. So the two clubs swapped, hoping changes in scene Slight enable the players to get back In their old stride again. Rath Deal Heads Lint. Several interesting deals were put ver ainee the close of the 1919 sea son, and many players will appear in new uniforms when they take the field in 1920. Of course, the biggest deal ever known in baseball was put over In New York this winter, when the Yankees paid $126,000 to the Boston Ked Sox for the release of Babe Ruth, the famous home-run bitter and base ball's greatest drawing card. If no other deal was made during the pres ent off-season it still would make 1920 stand out as the year of base bait's greatest player transaction. The Red Sox also were involved in baseball's second biggest deal of the winter, when outfielder Bobby Roth and infieldor Maurice Shannon were traded to the Washington club for Third Baseman Kid Foster. Pitcher Harry Harper and Outfielder Mike Menoskey. The consensus is that Ed Barrow got all the better of this deal. Griffith however, made it because of his Intention to build up a new club in Washington. He says Washington ts demanding new faces, and he will andeavor to supply this demand. Rota Q nick-Change Artiat. An odd feature of this trade is that Boston acquired Roth and Shannon only last August In a deal with the Athletics for Strunk and Jack Barry. Roth is establishing a record for changing bis uniform. He came into the American league in the fall of 1914. and now Is to play with his fifth club. He has played with the White Box, Indians. Athletics, Red Sox and Senators in five years. 1 w wny are The sew film star.

"This two-reel comedy ("The Night of the Dub'), featuring Ernest Truex is one of the most, humanly funny comedies that has been seen since the pictures in which the late Sidney Drew and his wife appeared," declares Wid's Daily.

ANAGEMENT of the Majestic theater announced yesterday an unexpected change in this week's programme for that theater. Alice Lake, in "Should a Woman Tell?" will be shown until tonight only and to morrow a. new and pretentious pro duction, "A Modern Salome," will come on the Majestic boards. Hope Hampton is the new star. She is new not only to the Majestic silver screen, but also to the entire film world, as this picture is her first big production. No effort has been spared to make her debut in keeping with the career which screen men are certain awaits her. In the picture she portrays Vir ginia Hastings. Virginia Hastings known as "Salome," because of having posed for a painting of the daughter of Herodias, weds James Vandam, a multi-millionaire, to escape from pov erty and drudgery. Roberto Monti, to whom she had been engaged but with whom she has quarreled, comes to Salome soon after her marriage to ask the loan of $5000. He begs the money to save him from bankruptcy. Salome obliges him. Thereafter Monti increases his demands, and later. when Salome is piqued by the refusal of Harry Torrence, her husband's secretary, to pay attention to her, Monti accuses Salome of having an "affair" with Torrence. who is a mar ried man. Monti enters Salome's boudoir to press for further loans. Salome refuses, Monti attempts to overcome her and Torrence rushes in to her rescue. Then Salome's hus band enters, and seeing two men with his wife, seeks her assailant. Salome falsely accuses Torrence. fearing that If she charges Monti with the insult he will reveal all about the loans. Torrence is disgraced. Salome, In re morse, is taken ill and in a delirium imagines herself as the real Salome, dancing in the court of King Herod for the head of John the Baptist. How she learns a vivid lesson and hastens" to make atonement for the sorrows she has caused is told in a tensely dra matic story that gives Miss Hampton exceptional opportunity for a display nf her extraordinary beauty and talent. A tensely dramatic romance of New Fmrlnrtd fisher folk IS "bhOUld Woman Tell?" The picture is filled with atmosnhere increased by the de tailed backgrounds, properties and settings in which the finished acting takes place.
