Zane Grey Story "Vanishing American " Thursd ay and Friday The first and only reproduction of the history making episode of the conquering of the Cliffdwellers by the ravaging Indian nation of Navajos has been made in the filming by Paramount of "The Vanishing American," and which will be shown at the Hershey Central Theatre on Thursday and Friday evenings, May 20th and 21st, at 7.30 o'clock, under the auspices of the local American Legion. Admission, child-ren 25c and adults, 50. A large portion of the 10,000 Indians who appear in the screen version of Zane Grey's great tribute to a fast disappearing race took part in the making of these scenes. They entailed the construction of huge settings in the almost inaccessible Sagi Canyon in northern Arizona, and also the building of the largest individual set-ting erected on the great Lasky ranch in the San Fernando Valley, California , in years. The Navajos obtained their first real civilization from the Cliffdwellers, whom we now know as the Hopis, following the defeat of the latter. Just how they scaled the almost impregnable walls of the people who dwelt far up on the cliffs, how they waged a fierce , hand-to-hand battle for hours before the Navajos routed the de-fenders and tossed them to death on the rocks below, is shown in these scenes. The cliffdwellings reproduced on the Lasky ranch constitute a reproduction of the immense Betotakin and Kitseel cliff houses as they would appear if they were restored to their majestic grandeur of > ' ree thousand years ago. More than \000 feet of lumber and 63 tons of pli.cter went into their building. To have transported these materials over tor-turous trails in Arizona would have con-stituted an engineering feat beyond the present skill of mankind. This is just one of the hundreds of epi-sodes that go to make up "The Vanishing American.'" Richard Dix appears as the Indian hero of the story while \mm Wilson , Noah Beery and Malcolm McGregor complete the list of featured players.

The Executive Committee is planning to make a house-to-house canvass in order to secure a much larger enroll-ment. While the previous schools were very successful, the attendance was not as large as a school in this community should be. Arthur Gordon Meets With an Adventure On Friday evening while Arthur Gordon, who is employed in Mr. Ezra F. Hershey 'e office, was motoring clown Lebanon Way, accompanied by Miss Frances Barr , ol Lebanon, who is a member of this year 's graduating class of Lebanon High , he met with a thrilling adventure. As they were going up Pansy Hill a man jumped upon the running hoard of Mr. Gordon's Ford coupe, and ojHined the door and began to pull Miss Barr from the car. This took place almost in a moment's time. Being equal to the situation , Mr. Gordon came to the assistance of his fair companion and with a tiger-like attack lieat off the assailant, who was thrown off the car, and seeing his plans frustrated l>cat a hasty retreat into the darkness.

ANNVILLE BAND TO PLAY SUNDAY AT OPENING OF HERSHEY PARK Beautiful Hershey Park, the play ground of Central Pennsylvania, will open on Sunday, May 23d, for the season of 1926. As an attraction the Annville Band has been engaged, giving concerts at 2.30 and 5.00 o'clock p. m. The Annville Band is composed of 42 members, under the leadership of Prof. Carmany, and is the leading musical organization of Central Pennsyl-vania. Two pleasing programs have been arranged. A number of amusements have been added to the Park, the outstanding one being the Skooter, housed just across the bridge leading to the Hershey Con-vention Hall. In a structure, 40x50 feet , are the skooters, sixteen in number, eight singles and eight doubles. The skooters are electrically operated, each controlled by the operator in the skooter and these can be guided anywhere and everywhere that the driver may wish—until he bumps into another skooter, or some other skooter bumps into the skooter that he is driving or else bumps into the guards along the wall. With sixteen of these skoot-ers on the floor at the same time—it sure will be some time! The kiddies have not been forgotten, for there is a small Ferris Wheel, with six cars and each car will hold four children. Nearby is the Aeroplane Swing, with electric lights and streamers. This is equipped with six aeroplanes and each aeroplane will hold four child-ren. The Ferris Wheel and the Aeroplane Swing are close to the Skooter, and a attractive fence encircles these two amusement devices. The Merry-Go-Round has been repainted and the animals have been to the repair, man and they look spic and span. A new organ has been installed, which sounds almost like Phil. Fisher's Orchestra. Instead of six tunes, the new Wurlitzer organ will have forty selections for its repertoire—all the latest hits. The Miniature Trolley is being re-graded and will be in readiness to give the kiddies, as well as the older folks, its popular joy ride. The Roller Coaster will be running and ready to give its thrills, throbs and sink-away feelings. The Roller Coaster is one of the most popular amuse-ment devices in Hershey Park, and continues to go big with those who like their amusements fast and peppy. Two large comfort stations have been erected— one for the ladies and one for the men. These are modern in every respect. Several additions have been housed at the Her-shey Zoo, and this place will be more popular than ever. The Hershey Park Cafe will be open, under the supervision of Mrs. Harrison Hostetter and Mrs. Jerome Hostetter. The chicken and waffle dinners served at this cafe are the last word in "eats'." New walks have been laid, and a number of other improvements have been made, and as a result Her-shey Park is more beautiful and more appealing than ever. Beginning Monday, May 24th, the Park Theatre will open showing moving pictures—for the one week only—opening on Monday, (Decoration Day) May 31, with vaudeville. Movies at Hershey Park Theatre Beginning Monday On Monday and Tuesday evemngs, May 24th and 25th "Lady Windermere's Fan" will be shown at the Hershey Park Theatre, at 7.30 o'clock. The plot of this film is by Oscar Wilde. Altho not original, with Wilde's epigrams it became literature. With Lubitsch's subtle translation it is delightful. Irene Rich is charming as Mrs. Erlynne, the naughty mother of little Lady Windermere, played by May McAvoy. Ronald Colman is a suave Lord Darlington. On Wednesday and Thursday evenings, May 26th and 27th, at 7.30 o'clock, "The Masked Bride" will be the feature film. This Metro-Goldwyn film introduces Mae Murray, as an Apache, in a series of soft-focused close-ups. She's just as cute as a kitten's ear in this role of the youthful gamin, who is a famous dancer and the toast of the Paris cafes. And don't let anybody tell you Mae can't dance. How-ever, it is quite evident Mae did just as.she § leased and one can plainly see what Von troheim's direction did for her in "The Merry Widow." Junior Baseball League Organized The new Junior Baseball League which was organized at the Hershey Men's Club will begin its season about May 24th. This league is composed of teams from Hershey, Hershey Industrial School, Pal-myra, Union Deposit and Hummelstown. The Hershey team is coached by Alex Magrini. J. I« . Snavely of the Hershey Men's Club is president of the league. To make the Hershey team a success the Junior team must have the support of the people of the town. The Junior team will hold a sale of candy, ice-cream, soft drinks , etc., in the near future, in order to raise money to purchase baseball suits. The members of the baseball squad are as follows: Glenn Stover, pitcher; George Zimmerman* catcher; Hugh Baker, first base; "Patty" Miller , second base; Frank Shaeffer , short stop; Frank Purcel l, third base; Marlin Balsbaugh , right field ; "Vic" Tinney, center field; "Diz" Armold .left field . With these young stars Hershey hopes to win the championship pennant. So let's all boost this team.

PROF Curtain to Ring Down on Miss Storey's Dancing Class Miss Ethelyn Storey, who has been residing for two years with her uncle and aunt, Mr. and Mrs. Fred W. Pugh, qf the East End, will return to her home in Youngstown, Ohio, on Saturday. Miss Storey, who is a graduate of one of the large dancing studios of Youngstown, and while in Hershey, organized a dancing class of children, from the ages of five to twelve years, and which was known as Miss Ethelyn Storey's Dancing Class. In this short period of time Miss Storey's class made remarkable strides in the art of dancing. Furthermore, Miss Storey de-veloped two stars of outstanding ability in Miss Vera Miller and Miss Esta Black. In Miss Vera Miller she produced a youthful star who compares most favorably with many a one whose name is in large electric letters on Broadway. Miss Storey's Dancing Class has been seen in Washington, Harrisburg, Lebanon, as well as in Hershey Park, and the nimble-ness, ingenuity and breeziness of their interpretations always brought down the house with a bang. Those who were members of Miss Storey's class are as follows: Vera Miller , Esta Black, Marie Mays, Mary Deppen, Catharine Tobias, Ruth Frehn, Almeda Nowlen, Lillian Gallagher, Virginia Phil-lips, Anna Rachael Snavely, Margaret Miller, Dorothy Balsbaugh, Pauline Lau-dermilch and Kathleen Cassady. When I Get Tired of May When May is at her best, Warm days and cloudless skies, There's not another month can beat This maiden with flirtatious eyes. But May has other moods That I do not admire,— For instance, just the other day I had to build the furnace fire. About the time I'm tired Of morning, night , and noon Spent in the company of May, I meet up with her sister, June. And say, Mistcrl Have you seen May's sister. All's fair in love, war, and politics. Put On the Brakes "Met your new neighbors, have you? What kind of people are they? "Newly rich and sporty. They know the parts of an auto better than the parts of speech." ICarnestinc—"Most people admire my mouth. Do you?" Earnest— Rather! I think it is im-mense." Here is a short letter and n long post-script from our old friend , Peeny Wheczer. What we can't understand is why we don't get more short letters with long i_sl-scripts, or liettcr still , long letters with long postscripts. Hershey, Pa., May 17, 192G. Dear Dee Jay Gee:- Enclosed please find a nickel (live cents) and many, many thanks for the |x>em you printed by and about me. Yours truly, • Peenle Wheezer. P. S. Ah yoii know, I'm a pretty tough Siiy and have so much muscle that I can't oublu my arm up enough to' pat myself on (lie back , but of late, I nave made up my mind that I don 't have any reason to pat myself on the back. Of course every man, no matter how good he Is, always meets up against someone that, is better than him-self. In other words every man is going to fall sometime. Corbett fell , Johnson fell , Willnrd fell . iind so did l. Righ t here 1 want to make a comparison iHitween Dcmpsuy and myself. Dempsey (ell for a woman. I followed suit. It hap]>ened this way. The missus and I were throwing a party, and the question of dieting was l_lng discussed. I argued that the rulsHUH by going on a strict diet of meat, and potatoes hail reduced , bringing her weight down to the significant figure of 249 pounds, av. Well , right then the fun ttlivvted and before, 1 knew It, I found my-self on the floor. In other words, Rome had fallen. And when I asked the cause of such action from the missus, she explained she hod reduced to 248 J_ ixj unds. Well, it was all done so quickly that I didn 't mind , but after the company left and she got to shaking her fist under my nose and telling me what n feather-brained Idiot I was, 1 Ixsgan to shake all over, and I'm afraid , like nearly nil oUier great athletes, I'll die young. (Continued on page 2) The Smokestack | $» «Dee J ay Qee \ - L Jackie Coogan in "Old Clothes" at Central Theatre Saturda y Jackie Coogan's latest film offering fits him like the classy Eton suit he wears in the final scenes of "Old Clothes" which will be shown at the Hershey Central Theatre on Saturday evening, May 22d, at 6.30 and 8.30 o'clock. Though the years go by Jackie's genius is still as great as ever. He will display it still unconsciously when he is eighty. His gifts of acting are no more accidental than Mozart's gifts of music were. Jackie will be a greater actor at 24 than he was at 4. His histrionic equipment was not a by-product of babyhood, but the sturdy gift of an inheritance which he cannot repudi-ate. It is a pessimistic critic indeed who declares that adolescence and youth are less picturesque phases of life than ex-treme babyhood. To all the seven ages of man, Jackie Coogan may be counted upon to bring illuminative, intelligent and sympathetic interpretation, for he has those gifts which transcend time and suggest the eternity of immortal genius. Jackie's new film is sweet, clean and wholesome. It's brimful of delightful comedy, and the supporting cast has been exceptionally well chosen. On the whole "Old Clothes" is one of the very best of the Coogan films. Eddie Cline directed it from Willard Mack's story. Jack Coogan, Sr., supervised the production . Hockersville Defeats Union Deposit On Sunday afternoon . May 16th, Hock-ersville defeated Union Deposit by a score of 16 to 11, at Union Deposit.

Hershey Park Theatre To Open WithJHigh-Grade Vaude ville|Monday, May 31 The Hershey Park Theatre will open on Monday, May 31st, with matinee and evening performance, presenting 4 acts of high-grade metropolitan Vaudeville. Before making final arrangements the Park management made a thorough investigation of all the booking agencies in New York City with the purpose in mind of presenting vaudeville at the Park Theatre that was not only high-grade but different from that which is presented in the vaudeville houses of Central Pennsylvania. Their investigation proved to their satisfaction that they could get this service from the Marcus booking agency, of New York City, the largest independent booking agency in America, which books acts for 54 metropolitan theatres, capable of giving bookings for more than 200 acts a week. Altho Marcus is an independent agency, he also books a large number of Keith feature acts, for a run on the Keith circuits extends to but 12 weeks. In addition to the Keith acts Marcus has a large list of high-grade independent acts that are never seen in a Keith theatre. The 4 acts will consist of one single, two double and one big feature act, and a first-class motion picture feature. The vaudeville pictures and will be changed every Monday and Thursday. The prices of admission will be the same as last summer, as fol-lows: General admission, children, 20c; adults, 30c; reserved seats, 50c. Luth eran Boy Scouts Hold Investiture Meeting Interest ran high throughout the in-vestiture meeting held by the Boy Scouts of Holy Trinity Lutheran Church last Thursday evening in the social rooms of the church. With srniling faces and great enthusiasm the boys assembled in their business meeting. The regular order of Scout business was dispatched in the proper Scout spirit and the matter of the summer plans were entered into most heartily. Two programs were presented for the summer activities and after their discussion the Scouts reserved their de-cision until a future meeting. After the business session the Scouts were seated in patrols about a large table which was decorated for the occasion and enjoyed a fine lunch and program. The program of the evening was in, charge of Senior Patrol Leader John Shay who acted as toastmaster. The program was as follows: "What is A Scout?" by Howard Lloyd; "The Future of Our Troop" by William Graeff; violin solo by Carlysle Sherrick; "Our Summer Camp", by Earl Christ; piano solo by Richard Mumma. At the conclusion of the program Scout-master Kinports presented to 15 of the Scouts a medal for having received 150 points in the merit system of the Troop. In connection with the reward each Scout received a neckerchief bearing the colors of the Troop, orange and black. Those receiving the rewards and neckerchiefs are: Charles Baker, Maynard Bomgardner, Glenn Hummer, William Graeff , Merle Keiffer, Howard Lloyd, Levere Spohn, Carlysle Sherrick, Richard Mumma, John Shay, Earl Christ, Luther Furst, Stanley King, Norman Seibert, Hubert Taylor. The meeting closed by singing the national anthem and the Scout Mispah.

Lorenz and the new electrical re-producing Brunswick Panatrojj e will be the added attraction at the Hershey Central Theatre on Saturday evening, May 22d, at 6.30 and 8.30 o'clock.

May 21, the Hershey Schools will observe their annual play day and frolic on the Hershey Park athletic field. The children of the primary grades will play games and have folk dances, while the intermediate grades will present more strenuous stunts and also give an exhibition of the calisthenics which they are accustomed to use in school for recrea- tion. As a prelude to the games the children will march from the schools to the park. The first grade children will lead the pro- cession followed by the successive grades ending with the Senior Class and the High School Faculty. The line of march will be along Cocoa to Chocolate, East on Choc-olate to Ceylon, cross the street there and pass in front of the Offices of the Chocolate plant, then return to Chocolate Avenue at the Quick Lunch and then proceed to the Park. It is hoped that the people along the line of march will be out to greet the children. Through the courtesy of the Park man- agement, J. R. Zoli, has made it possible for every child to receive a free ride on the "Merry-Go-Round." This part of the program is certain to be popular. Another consideration toward the child-ren comes from the Sales department of the Chocolate Co., through whose gener-osity each child is to be given a bar of chocolate. We wish to commend both these agen-cies for their thoughtfulness and their efforts to add to the happiness of childhood Exhibition Days at Hersh ey Schools Next Week Wednesday evening, May 26th and Thursday evening, May 27th is the time set for the annual school exhibition of work done throughou t the year.

Her girlish figure,, the simple beauty of a normal, unspoiled American girl and a poise and grace makes a decidedly favorable impression. Her winning smile and charming manner as she bows in acknowledgment of the initial ovation, for ovations they are, further endear heir to the hearts of her audience. And last, but not least she captivates all within sound of her beautiful voice. It is rather a surprise, and quite an agreeable one to hear such a wonderful coloratura voice as Miss Talley possesses and realize that it belongs to an American singer. One unconsciously associates such voices with, the many great foreign artists that come to our land. But this little Kansas girl has demonstrated that such voices are to be found in America, and at last one of our native singers has developed the skill to handle such a voice with as much artistry as the greatest foreign singers. Miss Talley in her Hershey concert will be assisted by Maximilian Rose, violinist and Emil Polak, pianist. The advance sale of tickets is quite large, but there still remain a number of choice seats. The program will be as follows: 1. a Intrada Desplanes b Roudo -. Mozart- Kreisler Mr. Rose 2. Aria, "Una Voce Poco Fa", from "The Barber of Seville". .

Zane Grey Story
"Vanishing American "
Thursd ay and Friday
The first and only reproduction of the
history making episode of the conquering
of the Cliffdwellers by the ravaging Indian
nation of Navajos has been made in the
filming by Paramount of "The Vanishing
American," and which will be shown at the
Hershey Central Theatre on Thursday and
Friday evenings, May 20th and 21st, at
7.30 o'clock, under the auspices of the
local American Legion. Admission, child-ren
25c and adults, 50.
A large portion of the 10,000 Indians
who appear in the screen version of Zane
Grey's great tribute to a fast disappearing
race took part in the making of these
scenes. They entailed the construction
of huge settings in the almost inaccessible
Sagi Canyon in northern Arizona, and also
the building of the largest individual set-ting
erected on the great Lasky ranch in
the San Fernando Valley, California , in
years.
The Navajos obtained their first real
civilization from the Cliffdwellers, whom
we now know as the Hopis, following the
defeat of the latter. Just how they scaled
the almost impregnable walls of the people
who dwelt far up on the cliffs, how they
waged a fierce , hand-to-hand battle for
hours before the Navajos routed the de-fenders
and tossed them to death on the
rocks below, is shown in these scenes.
The cliffdwellings reproduced on the
Lasky ranch constitute a reproduction of
the immense Betotakin and Kitseel cliff
houses as they would appear if they were
restored to their majestic grandeur of
> ' ree thousand years ago. More than
\000 feet of lumber and 63 tons of
pli.cter went into their building. To have
transported these materials over tor-turous
trails in Arizona would have con-stituted
an engineering feat beyond the
present skill of mankind.
This is just one of the hundreds of epi-sodes
that go to make up "The Vanishing
American.'" Richard Dix appears as the
Indian hero of the story while \mm Wilson ,
Noah Beery and Malcolm McGregor
complete the list of featured players.
