              Harold Lloyd in
"The Freshman "
at Central Theatre
If all the world loves a lover, it is equally
true that all the world loves youth. Youth!
Life's most glorious, golden age! A
period fleeting and fiightly—when today
is lived to the full, and tomorrow is an
enchanted land where hopes and ambitions
come true. And it is this magic age of
youth—of the finest qualities of American
youth—that it is Harold Lloyd's delight to
characterize in his pictures, which have
become a world-wide vogue.
"The Freshman," which is Harold
Lloyd's newest Pa the feature and which is
announced for showing at the Hershey
Central Theatre on Thursday, (tonight),
Friday and Saturday evening. On Satur-day
evening there will be two showings,
at 6.30 and 8.30 o'clock, is a story of
youth. Its central figure is Harold Lamb,
who has arrived at that tremendous stage
when a fellow 's boyhood is put forever
behind him and he goes to college—a man
at last! Harold like every normal youth,
dreams of being the hero of his college—the
man of the hour—the idol of his fellowmen
and girls!
Six times Harold went to see the movie,
"The College Hero," and, in the privacy of
his room, practiced the trick mannerisms
of the fiction hero. "I'm just a regular
fellow," the hero admitted. "Step right
up and call me Speedy!" as he held out his
hand for a good, old grip. Harold decided
he, too, would be a "regular fellow" and
invite everyone on first acquaintance to
step right up and call him Speedy.
And he did ! It made his entry into
college life about as conspicuous as a purple
elephant/ Midst all the excitement of the
meeting of old friends and the razzing of
new arrivals, Harold's trick college cos-tume,
his jig step and his self-introduction
took the limelight.
From that moment Harold was doomed
to be the college boob, but, so sincere and
earnest was he in his desire to please that
he never-suspected his real status among
the students. Speedy and Spender , they
dubbed him—and saw that he lived up to
the reputation. And when the football
coach rewarded his indomitable spirit to
win a place on the team by making him
water boy and letting him believe that he
was also a substitute, everyone in the col-lege
but Speedy knew the brutal truth.
Only Peggy would have disillusioned
him, because she was the only one in the
whole college town who didn 't laugh at
Harold. She intended to tell him. but
When he came to her with his face alight
with the joy of achievement she hadn't
the. heart. Only buoyant, healthy, vital
youth can indure the disappointments of
youth, and disappointment comes to
Harold at the time that success and happi-ness
seem to be at their highest. But he
eventually surprises the whole world by
coming through a regular fellow after all,
and not a trick college freshie.
"The Freshman" again presents Jobyna
Ralston as Harold Lloyd's leading lady.
Hazel Keener, famed for her beauty, plays
the part of the college belle; Brooks Bene-dict
is the college cad and Pat Harmon is
the football coach.

Dedication of New
School Frida y
Evening, Oct. 23
On Friday evening, Oct. 23rd, has been
selected for the dedication of the new
Junior-Senior High School. The exercses
will be held in the Auditorium of the school.
Invitations have been sent to a number of
the prominent educators of nearby cities.
Dr. Francis B. Haas, Superintendent of
Public Instruction, will make the principal
address. ' ¦ ." ¦ ,
• This occasion also will afford an oppor-tunity
for the inspection of the building
by the people in general. Everybody
interested in education and schools is in-vited
to attend these exercises. It is
hoped that the people of Derry Township
as a whole will show their appreciation of
the gift of this splendid building by attend-ing
these exercises en mass, and in this
manner pay a tribute to the generosity of
the donor, Mr. M. S. Hershey.
"The Timber Wolf"
Picture of Dazzling
Speed and Action
Speed and action—these two ingredients
are foremost in "The Timber Wolf," a
thrilling William Fox story of the lumber
camps, starring the peerless Buck Jones,
who appears at the Hershey Central
Theatre on Tuesday, Oct. 20th, at 7.30
o'clock.
Swift action and Buck Jones are synono-mous—
the big Fox western star thrives on
rapid movement. In this latest produc-tion
both the agile Buck and Director W.
S. Van Dyke have outdone themselves in
conceiving and executing many new
daring thrills.
In "The Timber Wolf", Buck proves the
mettle of his equine pal, Silver Buck,
doughty cow-pony and prize of the Jones
stables. Astride his favorite mount, Buck
hurtles through space; spans yawning
chasms; makes maddening dashes and
perilous climbs. These tingling feats of
horsemanship demonstrate the hazards
risked by Buck and Silver Buck before the
camera.
While these thrilling deeds play im-portant
parts in the unfolding of the virile
drama there are numerous highlights that
will cause audiences to gaze with wonder.
To witness Buck in the tense moments of
this picture is to know the height of action
drama.
Elinor Fair heads the supporting cast,
playing the leading role opposite Buck.
Dave Dyas, Will Walling, Sam Allen and
Rpbert Mack have prominent roles.
"The Timber Wolf" was adapted from
a popular book of the same name by Jack-son
Gregory, noted author of western
fiction. It was directed by W. S. Van
Dyke from a scenario by John Stone.

think? Why, last year the Mister went
with a hunting party to the Subtracti-ronacks
Mountains, and I have overheard
him tell his men friends that they were all
about half shot when they were up there.
I overheard this, understand, and I suppose
he never mentioned it directly to me be-cause

Up Where We Come From there used to
be an old fellow whose job was that of
1 Iciilt h Officer. His duty it was to quaran-tine
homes where there were contagious
diseases and to fumigate these homes when
the quarantine was lifted . Anyway this
officer wasn't overly careful of his personal
appearance, wearing the same clothes year
in and year out. The only washing his
cloth es ever got was when t he old bird was
caught out in a shower.
Consequently this geezer came to l>e
known quite generally throughout the
coun tryside as the Hoard of Filth.
Tho Chicken 's Comb.
Today while we were changing a tire on
the flivver , the wife took the whiskbroom
and brushed off the "up holstery. "
"What in the world is this?" asked the
wif e, displaying to our horrified view a
comb which clearl y had been left in the
back seat by some female of the s|)ccies.
Vain were our efforts to look ignorant.
U)rtks are deceiving sometimes, you know .
"Some poor chicken has lost tier comb,
all ri ght ," said th e wife, "and If 1 had that
chicken bv the head for about two minutes,
she wouldn 't have enough hair left to have
an y furl her use for a comb!"

Communit y Chorus
to be Organized
in October
Owing to the fact that the dedication of
the M. S. Hershey Junior-Senior High
School will be held on Friday evening,
Oct. 23, Miss Marion Roth , the music
instructor of the Hershey High School,
will not organize her Community Chorus
until the following week. We will state in
the next issue of the "Press" the time and
the place the organization villi take place.
Quite a number of persona have handed
in their names, in fact, the nucleus of the
Chorus will lie the choirs of the Lutheran ,
United Brethren and Presbyterian Church-es.
Don't think because you are not a
member of a choir that this leaves you out
—in fact , this is all the more reason why
you should join the Chorus.
Mi ss Roth will begin with the old-time
melodies, those that we are all familiar
with , and from these will lead up to the
more difficult songs.
Get enthused about the Chorus —and
jo in it. It would please Miss Roth to
have at least 100 men and women, boya
and girls , present on the organization
night.

Hershe y Follies
Pleases Two Lar ge
Audiences
The first annual showing of the Hershey
Follies was a success in its every phase.
Large audiences greeted the production on
both nights, notwithstanding the frigid
weather that made its appearance.
The first number of the "Follies" was
that of Gollicker and Shin, and these
comedians kept the audience in a roar with
their wit and humor. They played up the
majority of our citizens, but did not give
Cain to Zeigler or Zimmerman. Possibly,
this was due to the fact that this team was
composed of the two last-named gentlemen
and they preferred letting their merry
quips light elsewhere.
The second number was the Five Bung-lers,
composed of Alex Magrini, Ed. Shay ,
Paul Belser, Kenneth Stover and Bill
Leithiser. This was one of the big hits of
the show. The name of this act was a
misnomer, in fact , there was but one Bung-ler,
which was Bill Leithiser. As a clown
Bill could fill the' shoes of Max Hugo to
perfection. His funnyisms were really
funny.
The third number was a presentation
of "The Charleston", a dance that has
taken the entire country by storm, pre-sented
by Miss Ethelyn Storey, which was
her first public appearance in Hershey. As
danced by Miss Storey it looks pretty
nifty, but we can picture what a sorry
spectacle the Hershey Dance Pavilion
would look like, if our local dance patrons
would take it up, and permitted by the
management to do so. We believe the
Hershey ambulance would have to be
called into service right quickly. As a
dancer par excellence, we will give Miss
Storey first prize. To her, dancing seems
a joy and a pleasure, with no exertion—all
she needs is the music and she is ready to
go.
Then followed Lieutenant Bentley and
his famous donkey, with three aspirants
who tried to ride Mr. Hee Haw, but all to
no avail. The donkey was too much for
these men, who tried to keep astride his
back. In fact, the donkey shook them off
in one, two, three order. This is due,
however, to much experience, as this
donkey has had much circus experience,
and moreover, Lieutenant Bentley keeps
him in training every day at the State
Police Barracks letting him do his stuff—
and he continues to do it successfully.
There is but one man that can ride this
donkey and that is Lieutenant Bentley,
possibly the donkey permits him to do so,
knowing who feeds him his oats and gives
him his tobacco and Cocoa Milk. At
some future time, probably at the Hershey
Firemen's Fair, Ben Reigle and Ben
Beidleman will be given an opportunity of
attempting to ride this Maud—oh, boy,
won't that be fun !
Following this ten minutes of riotous
laughter, and while the three men who had
made a failure of riding the donkey were
rubbing their bruises with linament, little
Vera Miller made her appearance. This
little girl is chuckful of talent, and she has
followed the line of least resistance since
she was a wee tot. We remember seeing
her do a toe dance at the Hershey Central
Theatre when she was but three years old,
and she did it with the same spirit, en-thusiasm
and excellence as she now does
her jazzier numbers. In a later number
Vera gave the "Farmer Dance", assisted
by Marie Mays, Lillian Gallagher, Mary
Deppen, Ruth Frehn and Kathryn
Hostetter.
Miss Mary Deppen was given an oppor-tunity
of making her debut as a solo
dancer. She made a hit in her Indian
dance, and had to take a number of en-cores.
She is a vivacious little miss, and
most gracefully danced into the hearts of
her audience.
Miranda, who was none other than Miss
Katherine Leithiser, and Her Trained
Rooster, impersonated by Chance Phillips,
came forth and created much laughter by
the versatility of the rooster . The rooster
was not much of a mathematician, and
he didn 't know who was Hershey 's most
|x>pular bachelor , but he did know how to
wink his eye. This act , by its uniqueness
and originality, went big.
The Merrymakers of Lebanon, who
furnished the music for the other numbers
from the pit , gave an act on the stage, con-sisting
of songs and jazzy music. Altho
the weather was cold as heck , the Merry-makers
made things warm by their
efforts. The orchestra is comixj scd of but
seven men, but what they lack in numbers
they made up in "pep". They are right-full
y named Central Pennsylvania 's Pre-mier
Orchestra .
The next number on the bill was tha t of
"The Gladia tors. " This was a three-round
bout by two of Lieut. Bentley s
proteges, who aspire to Dempscy's crown.
They went at each other in a fierce and
ferocious manner, and by their hooks and
jabs looked as tho both would be in the
Hershey Hospital before the final gon^.
But, ns in the fairy stories, all ended happi-ly
and t hey lived long afterward .
The last act of the Follies" was a wow,
a satire on the Atlantic City Bathing
Beauty Contest. The bathing beauties
were as follows: "Miss Hershey ' by Win .
Curtis; "Miss Campbelltown by Karl
Hackman; "Miss Union Deposit " by
Edward Shay; "Miss Hockersville " by
George Warner; "Miss Hummelslown" by
LeRoy Holler; "Miss Palmyra" by Grover
Sheckart; "Miss Den y Church" by I-aw-rence
Edwards, and "Miss Sand Beach" by
Wm. Leithiser. The judges were Messrs.
J. 10. Snyder , Dr. II. G. Munima and Dr.
J. L. Zimmerman, who awarded the prize
to "Miss Sand Beach." "Old Neptune ",
who was represented by Wm. Ixithiser,
Sr., crowned the lienuty with a tomato can,
Miss lOsta Black was the attendant. Thin
act was clever and funny. As a comedian
I )r. Zimmerman was aces high , and in fa ct ,
waH pretty much the whole works --that is,
as a provoker of laughter.
To th e success of the "Herslie/ Follies"
much credit should lie given Clius. K, Zeig-ler.
He was assisted most abl y by Miss
Evelyn Storey, who directed and super-vised
all of the dancing numliers, and by
Mrs, F. W. Pugh , who, we iMilieve spon-sored
the Follies.
To Fred BoUh and l-ewis Brluker should
1m: credited the splendid stage Hcltjngs ,
Mario Badillo, of "Flo-Flo" mine, could
learn much from these two artists.
As it Is, three cheers for the first edition
of the "Hershey Follies." May the
second edition Ixi as good , and the only
suggestion that we have to offer Ih that ft
lie presented in Seplemlier instead of Octo-ber.

Will we lie lazily,
We'll shut the old alarm's din off
At something after three.
We'll jump in our "store clothes"
As quickly as we can.
Eat breakfast, head the flivver north ,
At least that is our plan.
One week of vacation
Is coming to us yet ,
A fact as far as we re concerned
We don 't the least regret.
Money is not lacking
We ve borrowed lots of kale,
So Sunday A.M. we'll burn up
The Susquehanna Trail.
Up Where We Come From is
The place we're going toward ,
We've plenty relatives up there
On whom we're gonna board.
Even as you read this
We will be eating three
Square meals a day and we will get
Them absolutely free.
"Dee Jay Gee, we like your humorous
poema. They are like O. Henry 's Hhor t
stories, A body never knows how they are
going to end till he reads the last verse."
So writes Mae B. Overweight , of Skunks
Corners.
Mae B. Overweight , you are very flatter-in
g indeed. We make haste to aixilogize
for any slighting rumarks we may have
made about you in tho past. But whal we
were going to say is this; Mae B., you are
not the onl y one who doesn't know how the
Smokestack poems are going to turn out
till you have finished the last verse, We
never know how a i>oem of our 's is going to
end till we have written the last line,

Dibble and Clem Overwood , both of near
this place. As near as the writer can
make out Clem Overwood saw Abe Dib-ble's
flivver out in front of Smith's Em-porium
on Tuesday. While he was esti-mating
how many miles Abe could still get
out of the off front tire, he spied an eight-penny
nail sticking in the rubber as pretty
as you please. Clem went in the store and
got a hammer. He came out and pulled
the nail from the tire which by this time
Was entirely flat. Holding the nail in one
hand and the hammer in the other Clem
stood talking to Jake French when Abe
came put of the store and noticed his tire
was flat. Seeing the nail and hammer in
Clem's hand, Abe at once accused Clem of
puncturing the tire. This Clem denied.
One thin g led to another. They grabbed
one another and roughed it up consider-able.
Old Man Perry, who has been
Constable here for the last forty years tried
in vain to stop the fracas. At last some
one thought of cold water and a volunteer
fire company was formed. Repeated
buckets of cold water soon cooled the com-batants
down , and Abe was finally induced
to patch his tire, and leave the village. It
is rumored , however, that this coming
Saturday night Abe and the Hill boys are
coming to town to clean up Clem and his
gang. Clem says that hi is ready for Abe,
that he has performed his last deed of
human kindness, and he and his allies will
ask nor give no quarter.
"Tha t 's a good looking load of coal,"
said the Man with the Marble Top." I
wonder where that comes from."
"Coal nothing," said the Man with the
Cedar Chest, "that isn 't coal. That 's
some of this here gravel coated with tar
that th ey use for repairing roads. You
couldn 't be any dumber if you were a
dumb waiter. "
Cooking building. Not?
Sure thin g. Bottling works.
"Just l)ccausc a man chases the dollar,"
inquires the Man with the Wooden Leg,"
does that make him a doughnut?"
"On the whole, no," replies the Willage
Wit.
