These are exclu- sive of the hundreds of small group meetings which were not registered. Selection of the "New Athens," Chi- cago self-styled, as the site for the. international eucharistic congress in 1926, which is expected to bring more than 1,000,000 visitors in one month, was based largely on these conditions, commerce officials believe. A dozen new hotels were built last year and more than a score are pro- jected for 1924-25. The normal hotel capacity of Chicago is in excess of 100,000 rooms per day, it is claimed, while materialization of the new pro-I jects within the next few years will double this capacity. OUTDOOR RIFLE RANGEt WILL BE OPEINSOON Capt. F. E. Collins, of the R. 0. T. C. stated yesterday that, weather per- mitting, the outdoor rifle range would .be opened about the first of April. Captain Collins is in charge of thel range which is situated two miles; south of Ann Arbor. fast year, the range was in constant use, although Friday afternoon and Saturday morning were the most popular times. The outdoor range was not used by co-eds who, however, frequent the indoor range which is on the third floor of the Enginering build-. ing. The average number in the after- noon was about twenty men.. The outdoor pistol range will open about May 1st, and will be the scene of an all-campus pistol match. A meeting for all those interested was held in the Infantry office recently. - - -a sister, Mary, conceived the plot idea for a Kentucky mountain story and together with Marion Jackson they produced a tale known to the cinema world as the "Hill Billy." Jack Pick- ford returns to "Movie Row" and star- dom in the picture which claims his co-authorship. He comes back as the ragged boy of the Kentucky hills, the daring, adventuresome, lovable youth of the backwoods. Lucille Ricksen, who is famed as Hollywood's youngest leading lady, supports Jack as Emmy Lou, the sweet, demure maid who brings romance into the life of a lone- some boy. And on Thursday Leah Baird comes in her new screen triumph, "The De- stroying Angel." Starting with the pretty feminine thrill of a secret mar- riage, the story tells of a romantic girl who mysteriously disappears from her society circle and is boosted to, stage stardom by a shrewd theatrical manager under the enticing name of "The Deistroying Angel." Together with the showing of this picture, "Co- lumbus," the first of a series of film chronicles produced by the Yale Uni- versity Press, will also be featured. MajestlC Colleen Moore plays the part of a typical small town "tomboy" who be- comes an actress and returns to her home town in a play picturizing the story of her own life in "Painted Peo-. ple." She portrays the role of "her- self" playing baseball on a vacant lot, and the gallery is composed of play- ers enacting the town'sdcharacters Iwho are in.the theatre audience. The story was adopted from the magazine serial, "The Swamp Angel," written by Richard Connell, one of the fore- most.of American humorists. "Paint- ed People" is featured at the Majestic today through Wednesday. J. Rosamond Johnson comes to the Majestic with "His Inimitable Five" this week, offering a musical chronol- ogy based in the old negro plantation songs and spirituals, entitled "Synco- pation." Mr. Johnson's company con- sists of an eccentric drummer and dancer, a sterling banjoist and pianist, a baritone who is also clever with the clarinet and saxophone, and a youth- ful violinist. - Miss Eloise Bennett, the fifth member of the company, is de- clared by critics to have more poise than any colored girl ever seen in vaudeville. She sings and dances with characteristic interpretation. A comedy, "Cowboy," and a new Aesop fable cartoon conclude the Ma-, jestic program for the early part of the week. "Her Man," a Metropolitan special feature, comes to the Majestic on Thursday to remain through Saturday. Orpheunt "The Cricket on the Hearth" is a faithful picturization of the immortal Charles Dickens' best loved tale of the home. Josef Swickard and Fritzi Ridgeway are the featured players. Baby Peggy in "Nobody's Darling" and Fox news in addition to "The Cricket on the Hea'rth," constitute the Orphe- um program today through Tuesday. J. B. Warner in "The Lone, Fighter" features on Wednesday and Thursday and the last two days of the week Kenneth MacDonald comes in "After A Million." Also Ruth Roland in "Haunted Valley." The Stage Garrick "Grounds for Divorce," in which i Ina Claire is to apjbear at the Garrick ths week, is of Hungarian origin. The name of Ernest Vajda, the young con- temporary author, al: dy means much on the continent, and shortly, in New York, the Theatre Guild is going to do his "Fate Morgana." The comedy in which Miss Claire is to appear, deals with an ultra-modern set in Paris. A world famous divorce lawyer finds himself in the ways of trouble with his lovely wife and an amusing novel situation unfolds in consequence. The cast includes Bruce McRae, Cora Witherspoon, Gladys Burgess, Mary Phillip and Essex Dane. COMMITTEEANONE CAST OR GRLS'PLA (Continued from Page Nine) oacher, Irma VanBaalen; policemen, tMargaret .

With a reproduction of the Japanese earthquake, scenes depictiflg the Rus- Sian revolution, and a dramatic se- quence in the vault of a wrecked Yokohama bank, where crooks seeking a fortune in gems are trapped with their victims, it presents a stirring, love story. Filmed in Sonora, California, one of the oldest and most historic of the California gold cities, "Flaming Bar- riers-," which comes tQ the Arcade on Wednesday to remain the entire week, lhs as its background a country in which much of the western state's ro- mantic' story was developed. The lit- tle town of Burbridge, where most of the action takes place, is a battle ground'on which the things of yester- day and the things of today struggle for the mastery. Although a decided- ly. modern story, "Flaming Barriers" retains a strong flavor of the old days of the went, "Flaming Barriers" is a story of love and business success, a comedy- drama produced by the man who made "The Shiek," "Burning Sands," and 'Salomy Jane."
