JASPER AND GREYSTOCK ARRANGE
PLAY-OFF SERIES, BUT BREAK ON
OFFICIALS TO REFEREE CONTEST
Bill Kennedy Insists That None but Eastern
League Men Officiate Manager Bailey Wanted
Ward Brennan Series Appears Doomed
OPERA HOUSE BOOKS
SELIG'S "THE CRISIS"
Something About William N.
and His Early Successes in
Films Garden's First
IT APPEARS a pretty good bet at present
that there will be no seilcs to determine
tho championship of the Eastern League
and that Jasper will stand winner 01 me
first half and flrcystock .winner nt the
second.
The parties concerned, with President
Schcffer, met nt the Illiighain last cvcnlns
and after thoroughly discussing nil phases
of the situation with no little deliberation
decided to play the scries In Camden on
next Wednesday nnd Saturday evenings,
provided the Armory waB available. All de
tails were arranged and the final question
reached the olllclal or olllclals Major
Bailey said he wanted to name one man
and Mr. Kennedy should also hae a choice.
The latter said Mr. Daetzell would do him
and Bailey selected Ward Brennon, of
Brooklyn.
Jasper objected, not on the grounds of
Brcnnon's ability as an olllclal, but In
sisted that, as he was not on the Eastern
League staff and as the fcerles was simply
n continuation of the season. It was Im
proper to select a man not ecn on the
staff. The discussion lasted nearly to mid
night with no decision. Jasper has been In
three play-offs and Manager Kennedy says
the officials havo always been Kelected from
men on the staff, and, as far as Baetzell Is
concerned, Kelly or Stratton would be Just
as acceptable. Major Bailey Insisted he had
a right to his choice, and there the matter
rested.
Under League Jurisdiction
The meetlnc last night should have really
been a league affair, but It was thought to
facilitate matters by arranging a few of
tho details and submitting them at a board
of directors' meeting called for Cooper
Hall Friday evening. The Berles will be fur
ther discussed at that time, and If the
league votes against Mr Brennon the
chances are that the Greys will not play,
and If a favorable decision Is glen on
Brennon It Is probable Jasper will not play.
So thero you are. The best bet Is there
will be no series. Prior to the disagreement
these terms had been decided upon:
Agreed to play Wednesday, March SI
and Saturday. March 24, In the Camden
Armory, homo of the Camden Eastern
League club.

The conferees did not agree on Camden
without gUlng due consideration to the
subject, Kvcry phase of the situation was
discussed and It was seen that no Grey
stock people would secure admittance at
Jasper and rooters of the Kenslngtonlans
would hardly get In at Cooper Hall. So to
give all a chance. Camden was finally picked.
But It looks like no series.
Heading's Record Clean
Reading climbed back Into the first d!I
slon In the Eastern League last eenlng
by making It twenty straight games on the
homo floor, all that were played, by defeat
ing De N'erl 34-24. The De Xeri went to
Reading minus Reich and Harvey, both of
whom havo been playing poor ball.
Two local boys of considerable promi
nence. Tow ell and Armstrong, of the
champion Hancock team, made their debut

Hy the Photoplay Editor
In spile of the steady adnnc nf the
photoplay season, Philadelphia has a, lot
of good things or what are heralded as
such in store for It, Announcement al
ready has been made of tho booking of
"Joan the Woman," with GernMine Farrnr,
nt the Chestnut Street Opera Hou-o early
In April N'ow, the rather sudden with
drawal of "Tho Barrier" next Saturday eve
ning lenes the big theatre free to Install
Sellg's "The Crisis" on the following Mon
day afternoon.
William N. Sellg has to his credit a good
many spectacular motion pictures. It was
his firm that, long ago, put out a "Chris
topher Columbus" film, with Charles Clary
as the egg-balancer. It wa3 considered a
marvel of pretentiousness nt that time.
Mr Scllg also Is a pioneer In the field of
animal pictures. In most of these Kathlyn
Williams, now with Morosco, was featured
In the dark ages of scteencraft his "Jus
tinian and Theodora" gave the thrill of
Roman melodrama to fans hitherto nccus
tonied only to spinal agitation of the Wild
West brand.
"The Crisis" Is an adaptation of Winston
Churchill's novel of ante-Civil Wnr days.
History figures In it, as In "Tho Birth of a
Nation " On tho stago it was portrayed
by Jnmes K. Hackett and Charlotte Walker
The reader may judge how long ago that
was when the statement Is made that the
electrical fireflies In ono act were considered
radically ImpresBle. Trobably the photo
play will make the drama look like "a dirty
deuce," as George Ade or some ono said.
The editor regrets that ho was not able
to answer the query of several readers as
to the occupation of tho Lubin plant by
Lewis J. Selznlck until now. liven at
present It Is Impossible to reply definitely,
sjnee the only announcement of a resump
tion of activities nt Twentieth and Lehigh
was made at a banquet during the winter,
it Is understood, on purely unofficial au
thority, that Mr. Selznlck will use the print-

The burning question of Mary Garden's

bought the world rights to the work from

penrance as the Alexandrian courtesan
during the Hammersteln days nt what Is
now tho Metropolitan. It was one of hor

in Tomorrow's Public Ledger
TOMORROW'S Public Ledger will contain an important
dispatch from Washington by Lincoln Colcord. His article

liberalism throughout the world; and that despite the general tone
of press comment in the-belligerent countries, this view is tacitly
accepted by the various European governments. "
