It's a Paramount picture. As may be guessed from the title the picture is a ‘sea-going” one, howevey, the action of the story for the most part is laid in a seacoast town which. is visited by the United States battle fleet just returned from a training cruise. According ‘to advance reports where the picture has had its show- ing, Miss Bow has one of the best parts of her career. She is cast as a dance hall hostess whose duty it is to encourage the sailors on shore lcave to spend as much of their month's pay for dance tickets as possible, ]t is during a visit of the fleet to the port that she becomes the Q;_nt-r of a rivalry between two - from the U. 8. 8.

C00LIDGE SATISFIED Is Up Early Today Asking For Latest Electoral Vote imaries, Washington, Nov .7 (—Express- ing great satisfaction to his asso- ciates in the White House regarding the outcome of yesterday's election, President Coolidge was up early to-, day inquiring. as to latest electoral returns throughout the country. Special interest was displayed by the chief executive regarding the outcome in Massachusetts. All new reports regarding the situation there were brought to him immediately throughout the morning. Although Mr. Coolidge took no step early today to congratulate Herbert Hoover upon his victory at the polls, it was considered likely at the White House that such a message would be sent later in the day. It was known that the presi- dent found great satisfaction in look- ing back upon the message which he sent Mr. Hoover following the latter’s speech in 8t. Louis. In that message Mr. Coolidge predicted the republican nominee’s election. President Coolidge retired night before Governor 8Smith con- ceded his defeat but after it seemed the outcome of the election was cer- tain. radio in Mr. Coolidge's private berary on the second floor of the ‘White House was turned on as soon as he returned early in the evemng| from Northampton, Mass.,, where he had voted earlier in the day.

The president has al- ready seen men from every faction of every party and they are unani- | mous that M. Poincare Is the only man who can cope with the situation brought about by the resignation of the ministry which he headed. M. Poincare, Kowever, is known to be strongly averse to trying to form a new government because the recent radical soclalist convention at Angers has made it impossible for any radical to enter another Poin- care cabinet. It was this convention which made certain demands on the premier which he could not grant. and because of his refusal the four socialist members of his cabinet re- signed. This was followed by the resigna- tion of the cabinet in a body. Robinson Wires His Hearty Congratulations Little Rock, Ark., Nov.

The accident happened on a misty night when a dense fog hung over the entire territory and, according to testomony of the plaintiff, he and his friend were walking on what is called a sidewalk on the highway when he was suddenly struck from the vear with such force that the im- pact rendered him unconscious, while his friend was thrown to the other side of the highway against an ec.iankment. They were both tak- n to the New Britain hospital where «n examination revealed that the plaintift received a broken shoulder, | torn ligaments and a cutMover the wye. the accidert but it could not be ce- termined at the time whether he died as a result of the accident or from other causes. Frederick B. Hungerford, counsel for strenuously objected to discussing the civer Meehan's death, that " Vision Obscured By Fog The defendang testified on the | slund tiit he was proceeding at the rate of approximately 20 to 25 miles per hour but was unable to feet ahead. Other witnesses also tectified that the right was extremely foggy and that driving was rticularly difficult, because of the silfppery condition of the road Judge William F.

It was further argued by the counsel that the de- fndant was traveling on the side- walk, or that part of the highway used by pedestrians, where he had no right to be. In response Judge Hungerford argued that the plaintiff was guilty of contributory negligence inasmuch as he was not on any sidewalk, as there is no sidewalk in that vicinity. according to the presentation of the case by the counsel for the plaintift | himself in the original complaint; | that were he on the sidewalk, the de- fendant would have rum into tele- graph poles. Judge Hungerford's contention was that the plaintift was walking on the road. basing his find- ings on the fact that Stutterheim was found in the middis of the road and therefore guilty of contributory | negligence. .In a rebuttal statement Jud Mangan stated that should the judge wish to see the place where the ac- cident happened, he will note that thers is a portion of the road which is used as a sidewalk by pedestrians and as for finding the plaintiff in R e e R PICK O' THE PICTURES!
