J. 8. Morison's rink of trund- lers from the Oshawa Lawn Bowl]- ing Club which was entered in the Toronto Rusholme tournament Sat- urday did not finish in the money. However, they enjoyed a good day's sport, . Following the precept laid down in director David Hartford's first three ACA Pictures, the latest, "The Man in the Shadow," which comes to the New Martin Theatre for an engagement of 3 days today, an all-star .;ast was en- gaged to enact this thrilling melo- drama. In one of the most important roles, that of the mother of the boy who is sentenced to death om circumstantial evidence, is Myrtie Stedman, one of the screen's most gifted actresses. Playing opposite her, in the role of the governor, is David Torrence, vet- eran of many outstanding screen por- trayals. As the boy, Joseph Bennett proves to be a leader among the nger artists of the screen. Mary McAllister, as the daughter of the governor and the sweetheart of the condemned man, rises to the posi- tiion of leading lady from which she is destined to climb even higher. Others who play important roles in this thrilling story are Arthur Rankin, John T. Dwyer, Margaret Fielding and Edward Coxen. "The Man in the Shadow" is based upon the injustice done to a lad who is convicted and sentenced to death, upon circumstantial evidence. When everyone else bas failed him, and it seems impossible to stay the execu- tion, his mother and his sweetheart clear his name. This is accomplished only through a series of highly cx- citing and tenscful episodes which hold the onlookers gripped in suspense.

You Be the Judge A crowd estimated at 700 witness- ed the playoff for the championship of the Ladies' Softball League at the Collegiate grounds Saturday af- ternoon. When President Alger, who was on the grounds and who spent u busy afternoon looking after the League's interests passed ihe hox a- round it was chucked full of silver. That is the way softball ians should support a ball game. There is noth- ing so discouraging to league offi- cials as to finish the season with a deficit and while Saturday's game no doubt was operated ai a profit, this money will be needed to over- come losses on the season's opera- tions. President Alger is to be com- mended for the manner in which he looked after things Saturday. One of the league's. important officials has resigned his position for some reason or other and more than one man's work has fallen upon 'the president's shoulders.
