In the nightcap game, Elks play the Moose, the latter still trying to win a ball game and the former trying to break into a win streak that will put them in the running for the pennant. If Krauses win, they will take secend place, for which position they are now tied with Henning's Clothiers, and the Halda will be holding its lead by but a few points. If this isn't a nip and tuck ball game, then a guess is missed.

When he loses her, his frustration sends him back to his single thought—his desire to be let alone. ‘This fear of his destiny persists throughout the story: Engaged to Mary Todd (Gordon in her first screen appearance, and good' he shies from her ambitions for him, breaks the engagement. Realization of his weakness, coming at the scene of his early courtship of Ann, alters his course and he returns to Mary, beg- ging forgiveness and promising to go his appointed way with her. The sense of doom, ever with him, is captured eloquently in ; the film. Resigned to this, he becomes a fighter for principle— through vivid, compelling sequences of his debate with Dougzlas (Lockhart at his best) and on to the end, when he boards the train for Washington, President-elect and marked victim of an assassin’s bullet. He is here a lonelier figure than ever, utter- ing great words quietly, more than ever conscious of his fate and his responsibility. As a movie “Abe Lincoln in Illinios” has its own greatness. As an American document, pertinent to today, it brings new life and meaning to words and maxims grown familiar in school- bookish repetition. As either it carries a tremendously moving weight.
