WELL LOCATE IN CHICAGO
From Tuesday's Dally
Miss Alice Louise "Wescott is to
I?ave Thursday for Chicago where
she goes to take up a very fine posi
tion there in the office of Dr. Eisler,
D. I.. oan of the Garrett Bible in
stitute. The Garrett institute is lo
cated on the Xorth western university
campus and is the theological college
of the university and where the stu
dents in the ministry are given their
final training for the work of the
church. In her senior year Miss Wes
cott majored at Garrett in Religious
Literature and the return to the
school will place her among familiar
scenes. Miss Wescott is a graduate
of Northwestern and since her return
home has been taking special courses
in secretarial work that will aid her
very much in her new position. The
new position will bring Miss Wescott
nearer to her brother, Mason Wes
cott, who is located in Chicago and
be very pleasant for both the brother
,'and sister. The many friends here
;will regret to see Miss Wescott leave
;the city but are pleased that she has
the opportunity of such a fine posi
tion offered her.

!of a hike to the C. L. Wiles farm

bers of the party enjoyed several

scoutmaster and Miss Phillips, the
guardian of the Campfire groups.

New Moving Picture Thrills With
Boy and Girl Drama; Rates
as a Screen Epic.
A new kind of a picture, so simply
told that it suggests greatness, and
in which an everyday boy and girl
are the hero and heroine and lone
someness is the villain, will open at
the Parmele theatre Sunday. It will
engulf the audience in an ocean of
emotional reaction. J
The picture is Universal's much
heralded "Lonesome." It was direct
ed by Paul Fejos, former Hungarian
medical man, drama-technician and ,
director.
"Lonesome" is a picture of much
power although its story is so simple
that it probably happens to thousands
of people every week-end. It starts
with every-day incidents, the awak
ening of first the girl and then the
boy with the ringing of the alarm
clock, and then swiftly sweeps them
through the morning's work to the
dramatic events of an afternoon and
night.
The boy and girl, called Jim and
Mary, are workers in a big city.
Each lives alone and is extremely
lonesome. On a Saturday afternoon,
with no work to do, they journey to
a beach resort and Jim, seeing Mary
and falling half in love with her on
first sight, manages to scrape an ac
quaintance with her.
Throughout the day they spin their
web of fun on the beach concessions.
In a slight accident on the scenic
railway and in the resulting crowd
they become separated. By this time
they have grown to love each other,
but after a frantic search through
the throngs of people, each goes
home alone with only the first name
and a photograph of the other to
aid them in further searching.
They find each other in a surpris
ing climax.
Glenn Tryon is the boy and Bar
bara Kent, the girl. Both are excel
lent. Fay Holderness, Gustav Partos.
and Eddie Phillips appear in brief
"bits."
"Lonesome" was written by Mann
Page and the adaption and continu
ity by Edward T. Lowe, Jr. It was
made under the personal supervision
of Carl Laemmle, Jr.

Last Evening
From Wednesdays Dally
Last evening the members of the
Plattsmouth club of the International
Rotary with their Kotary Anns mo
tored out to the country club just
west of the city where for several
hours fun and frolic reigned among
the members of the party.
The spacious grounds and the golf
course made a most inviting spot
for the picnic and while the suiiahine
gave its warmth to add to the en
joyment of the occasion the members
of the party indulged in the pleasures
of golf and while a red hot baseball
game was also staged among the
members of the party, the result be
ing that there was some very large
golf scores and remarkably low base
ball tallies made by the participants
in these two forms of athletic en
deavor. As the evening shadows drew near
across the hills and the effects of
the bracing air and outdoor exer
cise was felt; the members of the
jolly party gathered around the table s
and where the real art of the Rotary
Ann was demonstrated in its greatest
perfection the baskets of the good
things to eat being a feature of the
picnic that will be remembered long
after the golf and baseball are forgotten.
The occasion was one of the rarest
pleasure to all who were in atten
dance and as the darkness com
menced to lay its shadowy hand over
the landscape the members of the
party motored back to the city tak
ing with them the feeling of an event
of the rarest pleasure.

From Tuesday's Daily
The often postponed track and
field meet between the Plattsmouth
and Blair high schools was staged
yesterday afternoon at the baseball
park and was one of the closest
events that either school has parti
cipated in for this season. The final
count was G1M for the Platters and
GO1 for the Blair team and was
not decided until the last event had
been held.
I Hamilton Meisinger of the Platters
' was probably the outstanding figure
jon the track team while Brumbaugh
I and Cappis of the Blair team, espec
ially the former .showed splendid
form.
In the field sports the visitors
showed well as they swept away the
discus and shot put events, by taking
all three places, while in the half
mile Platters took all places and gen
erally in the track events showed a
much greater speed arid force than
the Blair team.
Adding a new record to the high
school athletics Richard Herold, '29,
of the local school hurled the javelin
134.10 feet, a mark that the visitors
were not able to dangerously threat
ened and which aifted materially in
the winning of the meet.
With but the margin of a few
points separating the two teams in
their scoring it was found that the
SSO relay was to settle the contest
and it was found also that several
of the relay team of the Platters had
hiked homeward which caused great
gobs of gloom to descend but the
team taking the field composed of
Leonard Lutz, Cecil Hennings, Don
ald Warner and Hamilton Meisinger,
far out distanced the best efforts
that the Blair bunion producers could
bring forth, and the event brought
the meet to Plattsmouth.

follows:
100-yard dash: Meisinger, (P)
first; Brumbaugh, (B) second; Cap
