Clank Books at the Journal Offlce CORPS OF CAMERA MEN MADE GRIFFITH PICTURE POSSIBLE Fortified at Every Point of Vantage Darius Filming of Thrilling Scenes on the Biver. One hardly realizes in seeing the D. W. Griffith picture. "Way Down East," to be shown at the Parmele four days next week, commencing Monday, that only a corps of intrepid camera men could have made pos sible Jhe taking of the wonderful scenes of the breaking up of the ice gorge and of the plight of Anna Moore as, on an ice floe, she drifted rapidly to a seemingly inescapable doom. Lillian Gish really was in great danger at the moment when she was rescued from the falls by Richard Barthelmess and if anyone had fail ed to "function" properly, there might have been a real tragedy to record instead of the mimic drama or a broken lire, healed by love, as shown In "Way Down East" on the screen. Of course, had the camera men failed the entire scene would be a failure for the actors would surely not have tempted fate again by re- enactment of the scene. It was at White River Junction in Vermont that the scenes on the river were photographed. At first as Miss Gish started down stream on an Ice floe, it was possible for the camera men standing on a bridge to get long shots" and to keep at the task of photographing the oncoming hu man figure so pathetic among the mass of floating ice. Then there was necessity of getting 'c'lose ups" and some of the men with cameras clam bered across the masses of ice to po sitions of vantage and at once set up cameras. No time was to be lost and the photographers were so intent on their work that they never noticed the breaking away of the ice on which they were standing. Two in stances of this kind were noted by people on the bridge. However, the men at the camera crank were game and kept on turning. A bend in the river sufficed to bring the floe near shore and then there was a scurry ing and a rush that did not end un til, man and machine were on the shore. It has been a matter of conjecture as to the method pursued in photo graphing Miss Gish and Richard Barthelmess at the brink of the falls. For this undertaking great prepara tions were made and the first thing necessary was to make a resting place for cameras. Below the falls a flimsy bridge of logs was erected from rock to rock and on this, in a precarious situation the camera men turned the reel until the last" foot of film had been utilized.. Theirs was not a spectacular pervice but it was fraught with danger . and required iron nerves. " KEEP IT UP!" With the advent of Spring Clean up week it is also opportune to note the large number of home Improve ments, as well as new homes and business buildings that are being carried out by enterprising citizens of the community. The new Platts mouth State bank building and the new Herold apartments are two of the more Important construction jobs under way. But there are a large number of homes being remodeled, several new ones built and many being improved in appearance with the addition of a new coat of paint, screened in porches, etc. Truly this is clean-up time and our people are responding in fine shape. Plattsmouth will truly be "The City Beautiful" in fact as well as name. , " HOUSES FOE SALE Have a car. load of broken western horses and mules for sale.

For eale by Weyrich & Hadraba OLD TIMERS TRIM HIGH SCHOOL NINE IN EXCITING GAME Business Men's Athletic Club and High School Team Clash in Five Inning Contest. Fora Thursday's Dally. Yesterday afternoon the members of the business men's athletic asso ciation and the high school base ball team tangled on the local lot with the result that the old timers were the winners by a score of 12 to 7, and in a game that was won by the club members in the first frame of the battle when they piled up a total of ten runs. The members of the athletic club were rather doubtful of victory on arriving at the grounds when they looked over the slimness of their op ponents as compared with their ewn massive array of heavyweight play ers, but a few moments workout was sufficient to put the old time3 back in form, and despite a little hoarse ness, the voice of Claude Smith had all its primitive beauty and during; the game received much use. The I agregate age of the athletic club was;an(i who has 6lIfjered much from the figured by some lightning calculator at close to 25.000 years, but we rath er doubt this statement. After inspecting the boys Captain Jim Kuykendall decided to send "Iron Man" Doolan to the mound, and he proceeded to let out a few of the Illinois university slants and spit balls that were hard for the high school boys to solve. Johnnie Wolff was doomed to do the catching and put in five of the most strenuous in nines that he has had for some time and agreed that it was much harder j work than selling cars. The keystone ; panied by Mrs. W. J. Rau were look sack was occupied by Captain Kuy-:jnar after some business matters in kendall and his service there was even superior to that of the. lighting company, although he too occasional- lv went OUt. At the Second Sack Henry Schneider performed in great shape and is today at least 100 pounds lighter as the result of thejH. Humble of the Missouri Pacific. exercise there as well as his base running. Jess Warga was at short with Claude Smith at third base and DeWolfe. Harris and Rev, Calvert In the outer garden. For the high school Eddia Mc Guire did the catching and Harold Mullls opened in the box, but was so badly damaged by the hard hitting athletic club that he retired in favor of Frank Gradoville, who held the old residenters to a very few scatter ed hits. The "Cub Bear" was at first base, and at second and third the redoubtable Dwyer twins, How ard and Harry played a fast and clever game. Alfred Calvert, Chase and Kreji were the ones chosen for the outfield. In the opening inning, McGuire Secured a walk as the first man up, and was followed by Mullis and Weber, who both fanned out. Frank Gradoville then laid down a three sacker to right that registered Mc Guire and the inning closed with Dwyer striking out. The business men were all in when their half of the first closed and with bated breath they dashed around the; bases almost at will and from the) grandstand the sound of their puff-; ing .was quite audible and had the game lasted through the nine innings we fear that there would' have been! some one or the boys missing this, morning. The heavyweights. Smith, i Schneider and Kuykendall, surprised! the natives with their base running and soared down to second with speed and grace and thoroughly de moralized the bewildered high school bunch. For the opener Kuvkendall and Schneider led with hits, getting two apiece, while Doolan. Wolff, De Wolf. Harris and Calvert each se cured one. Smith held the record for three passes to first in three times up and Warga was unable to! secure a hit although he had a safety on nrst m the opening inning. The high school secured two runs in the second when Wolff and Smith attempted to catch Calvert and Chase at third base and would have been successful but were unable to hold the ball and the high school lads I scored. They scored one run in the S fVltr1 on1 ,1 IKn fiPtk 1. 1 . .. ' onu v j in Hie uini wiitrri int?y touched up Doolen quite lively.
