BIG ~ MEIGHAN-PARAMOUNT FILM "Tongues of Flame," adapted from the novel of that name by Peter Clark Macfarlane, brings Tho- mas Meighan to the screen at - the Capitol Theatre Monday, Tuesday | and Wednesday in thé kind of a role in which the public likes him best. In the Paramount picture, direct- ed by Joseph Henabery, the man who made "A Sainted Devil," Tom plays "Hell Fire" Harrington, re- cently returned World War veteran who takes up the practice of law in a one-horse town. And it is only half-Reartedly that Harrington en- ters upon this profession. He has been "over there," seem all there is to life, as he thinks. Anything that happens now is of little conge- quence, It is not long hefore Harrington discovers that he has missed the most wonderful' thing in life--ro- mance. And it's a dotBle-barreled romance, at that! Harrisgton's position in the firm of John Boland, the town capitalist, brings on a de- lightful affair with the -miilionaire's beautiful daughter, Billie. The other girl in the case is & little In- dian school teacher who worships Harrington in sllence, Boland's business tactics are not as gtranghtforward as they might be and Lahleet, the little Indian girl tells Meighan how her people were once swindled out of their land and she fears the same thing is to hap- pen again. Harrington promises to protect them. And it is this promise that starts all the trouble, Boland tries to "frame" Harring- ton and from this point on "Tongues of Flame" builds to one of the most gripping '"smash"-----climaxes ever seen in pictures. "ig Bessie Love plays the role of the half-breed girl, Lahleet. Eileen Percy is cast as Billle Boland and Burton Churchill is her father. Cyril Ring, Nick Thompson and others complete the strong supporting cast. "BROKEN WING" CLOSES TONIGHT "One of the most entertaining pictures seen at the Strand in a long time" was the verdict of the capacity audience house which greeted "The Broken Wing" fedtur- ing Kenneth Harlan sad Miriam Cooper at the Strand theatre, last evening. A delightful comedy-ro- mance with hurricane action thou- sands of feet above the earth makes "The Broken Wing" the novel pho- toplay of the season.

HOCKEY GAME PUTS Donald Grimason's Arm Broken and Patterson Emerges With a Broken Rib. ° The largest crowd of fans so far this season saw two city league hockey matches. last might which kept them on their toes from start to finish. In the first match, R.C.A. met Granites. Granites, of course. were favorites and it seemed that they would be more so. when R.C.A. had to take the ice minus Lieut. Pa- net and one or two other players. But that fine sportsman, Col. Con- stantine, who has been playing In the nets for them, laid aside the pads to a new man who had never played before and went to his old | position on the defence. The crowd rallied' to his support. Granites scored four and in the second period ran it to six. Then, in the final period, Col. Constantine followed up quickly pn a shot and scored the first countér for his team amid deafening applause. The whole crowd began to cheer R.C.A. "Consy" added another goal and a few minutes later ome of his men made it three. The cheers became deafening, -"Consy" went for a rest and while he was off Granites ran in two more counters to make it 8-8--but it was a great final per fod. / R.C.A.--Goal, Mallett; defence, onstantine and Mellon; centre, Daybell; wings, R. Pugh and Le- sage; subs., Leeman. Granites--®Goal, Holman; defence, Purdy and Dunlop; centré, Dougall; wings, Driscoll and Compeau; subs., Montgomery and Bromuse. Referee--H. Nicholson, Second Game. The second game was one of the features of the season. Playing at a speed which was worthy of good intermediate O.H.A. and taking bumps and hurdles which looked like the most wicked of "pro." hoc- key, Irishmen and Circle-Six met for the first time in the senior series to decide which would stay on top. It was a hummer from Start to fin- ish and few people envied the re. teree his job. ; But it was butchery as well. Both teams went on the ice with the idea that the other one was going to give it a rough ride. And they were both right although the Irishmen, with heavier men and greater ex- perience, came out on top in the or haagings but every particle must | that is worse than a poor loser is a | roughing business. | be brushed off when finished, RRTRR-- gloating winner. HRS A The final score ended up 7 to 4 to "Ferry" the Green Shirts could never have stopped the youngsters. 4 Hospital List, : Here was the hospital list last FOUR IN HOSPITAL night---Donald, Grimason, Clrele-Six, for the Irish after four of the Cir cle-8ix players had been wrecked. The victory can be credited directly Millan. Without hil broken arm; Patterson, Circle-8ix, broken rib; Melts, Circle-8ix, knock- ed cold at the Irish goal with a da gerous long gésh over his eye; Dev- lin, Circle-Six, shoulder muscles torn and wrenched enough to keep him in bed for some time; and a bunch of minor injuries which needed a steady procession of first aid. Circle-Six carried by far the-bal- ance of the play but the wily Terry Millan, after getting his lead, made his forward shoot the rubber far up the ice and forced Cirele-Six-to carry it back, thus wearing them down to a frazzle. Tobin's work in goal did the rest while young "Wes" Powell had a streak of 'hard luck and four long shots, one from past centre mark, slipped by him, Irish men--Goal, Tobin; defence, Laflamme, Nickle; wings, Millan and Joyce; Spoor and A.

POE BE IP IR PI Must Stop This } Last night's City League hockey match proved conclysively that the City League must take drastic action to get rid of the "rough stuff" which is constantly growisg worse. The tearhs were just about equally to blame, although the Irishmen came out with fewer casualties. Cincle- Six were for the most part inoffen- sive, but a couple of men on their forward line started the business about the same time that thé Irish forwards got cocky and there was a steady parade to the penalty bench from then on. How some of the players escaped with their lives is a marvel, but it is sufficiently bad with a broken arm, a broken rib, a wrecked shoulder and a serious gash over the eye, besides several sou- venirs carried by the Irishmen. It must stop-that's all tlre is to it. City League referees must bé Senior O.H.A. Stratford 2, London 1. Galt 5, Kitchener 0.
