General Fran-|™embers of all the nations and all 18.—“How about a ride?” “college yells” at the University of, Florida. It is known to every man; on the campus of the institution, and | instead of a cheer-leader to bring it | forth, it takes only the passing of an automobile, regardless of the make of the machine, whenever a student; wants a ride. This “yell” has been} used to a great extent lately. In the past football season, the four Varsity gridiron games to be played away from Gainesville— Georgia Tech, at Atlanta; Mississippi A. & M. at Tampa; Alabama at Montgomery, and Washington and ‘Lee, at Jacksonville—were attended by a great percentage of the student body. Of this large percentage, «quite a number went by way of the “bumming” route. | One of the reasons why this mode of travel is so popular is because of | the ease and success with which the rides can be obtained. So much traffic crowds the highways that there ; is hardly a time when one cannot get | a “lift.” And many times it is neces- sity that makes one go that ‘way. “This is especially true inasmuch that ‘such a large per cent of the students of the University are earning their -own expenses. For, with a game of football nearby and without means to go by train to see it, the only thing to do is to “bum,” and this answers the problem nicely, for the student is generally successful. Not only to football games is the “*yell” used. —On any week-end, whether the spirit of adventure calls, or his best girl’s letter entices him forth from his studies, many college; men take to the road. On any high-, ‘way near Gainesville may be seen one or two. students waiting for rides. ; “Bumming” has been raised to a i !eiseo Cass and R.

H Among the 10,000 or more extras | tof Hollywood, motion picture cen-} jter, are all types, all nationalities | and all colors. These are carefully ; listed in the records of casting di- rectors and may be summoned by jtelephone at an hour’s notice. They ;are “camera broke,” know the tricks jof make-up and many own extensive | wardrobes. “Little Annie Rooney” deals with } jlife—kid life—in the tenement house district of New York’s famous | lower East Side with its teeming population, its thousands upon thou- sands who crowd into that section! lof the city from all parts of the’ world. With but just a few excep- tions the whole picture was pro- duced in Hollywood at the Pickford- Fairbanks studio; the cast is made jup from the hordes of film extras | there. In the story Little Annie Rooney is the twelve year old daughter of a ipopular New York bluecoat; leader of a band of rough-and-tumble, a!ley- {fighting youngsters of “The Block,” jand is secretly and wildly infatuated ' |with a hulking truck driver, Joe jKelly, who is the pal of her big brother, Tim Rooney. Her garb con-| sists of the cheapest of calico, torn ! and much-darned stockings, and | down-at-the heel shoes. She spurns | a hat. 2 1 Gone are the castles and their! moats; the palaces and their princes, of Miss Pickford’s “Rosita” and! “Dorothy Vernon.” Absent are the} heavy velvet and lace gowns’ with their sweeping trains of her costume } dramas.
