AMUSEMENTS.

EVERYBODYS* PICTURES SEE “THE COLLEGIANS” TO-NIGHT The first of a series of sporting pictures like “ Tho Leather Pushers,” hut dealing with college life “ The Co I leg lans.” will ho presented at the Princess Theatre to-night, and every

.Monday following for ten weeks. This is not a serial, hut a series of sporting stories everyone, complete in itself. The glinting humour of College life—the heart throbs and woes—the trials and triumphs in the career of a likable young athlete who starts working heeled with hope and financed with optimism—these human elements form the fibre of each of the stories, every one of which teams with action.

In “ The Campus Flirt,” llebe Daniels’ new Paramount starring vehicle, which comes to the Princess Theatre to-night, this young and capricious lady is supported by a cost of no less than approximately 6015 people. Of the better known wc might lhcntion Charlie Paddock, “the world’s fastest human,” who holds 37 out of 40 existing records tor sprints; El Brendel, tho clown of

You Never Know Women,” and .James llall, late of musical comedy. Of the 0012 which are left we might mention that 000 of them arc undergraduates of the University of California, who cheer llebe on Lo the final spurt when she runs the last lap of a relay race for her college. The film was made at the above university in co-operation with deans, professors, sororities, frats, hazing clubs, football players, trackmen and coaches. As for realism, well, it was made right at a. college, so what more need be said?
