PHILADELPHIA ASKS AID
OF GEORGE WILLIAMS AND
LEGISLATIVE   LEAGUE
HIGH SCHOOL FACULTY
GIVES  ANNUAL PLAY
New new leadership emerging from Philadelphia's tangled politiral situa¬ tion, can't survive xmless it takes note of the need for improvement in the administration of the affairs of the city, Thomas Raeburn Chite, chairman of the Committee of Seventy, warned Monday evening.
Speaking at the Hotel Penn Harris before the Legislative League, com¬ posed of about ninety of the repre- aentatives from rural districts, Mr. White appealed for support for the Philadelphia city-manager hill, the ¦voting-machine bill, the permanent- registration bill and the measure call¬ ing for a constitutional convention.
Representative George Williams, of Tioga, president of the Legislative League, presided at the weekly dinner of the organization. State Senator Harris, of Pittsburgh, sponsor of the voting machine and permanent regis¬ tration measures, was among the swats.
Besides appeals for the four prin¬ cipal measures in which the Com¬ mittee of Seventy is interested, Mr. White urged the passage of other election bills. The city manager, voting machine, permanent registra¬ tion and constitutional convention bills were drafted by experts of the Committee of Seventy and the Penn¬ sylvania Elections  Association.
Chief Strongheart
Chief Strongheart came to. the lec¬ ture platform direct from the motion picture lots of the Cecil DeMille Cor¬ poration in Los Angele, where he held •the position of technical and ethnolog¬ ical director, and where he played as featured artist in the great DeMille release "Braveheart." His companion artists in this picture include such ¦well-known names as Rod La Roque, Lillian Rich, Jean Acker and Tyrone Powers.
In his platform appearances Chief Strongheart appears in the pic¬ turesque costume of the Yakima In¬ dian and interprets the poetry, the romance and the soul of the Red Man of early days. He is a direct descen¬ dant of the old fighting blood of Gov¬ ernor Stevens' time. His grandfather, Yo-Mo-Wit Ow-Hi, led one of the tribes which aided Chief Ka-Mi-Akin against Governor Stevens in the Ya¬ kima Rebellion in 1856.
Chief Strongheart was born on the Yakima Reservation forty years ago and was rered in Reservation fashion by his fellow tribesmen. He served ten months as United States Scout at the Mexican border and was one of the first to offer his services to Col¬ onel Roosevelt for enlistment in the proposed division of overseas Rough Riders. He is advisor and counsellor of his own people and has appeared before the "great white father" in Washington on several occasions in the interest of his people and as their emissary.
Strongheart played conspicuous roles in "The Flaming Arrow," "The Mail Despatcher" and "The Heart of We-to-Na" on the legitimate stage. It is interesting to note that in the De¬ Mille production of "Braveheart" Chief Strongheart plays the role which he has actually experienced in real life—that of carrying on the fight ¦for rights for the Indians in their own country.
Chief     Strongheart     is   an  experi¬ enced     speaker,   and   this   experience <omes    not only    from    his years of [ platform work, but also from his many appearances before committees on In- ! dian affairs in Washingrton and other ! organiztions functioning for the wel- fre of the Indian race. He is a fascin- ' ating talker and very well educated. His costumes and stage  settings are ' richly colorful.
In the High iSchool Auditorium, on lAonday evening, February 25.
Because of past successes the an¬ nual comedy-drama given by the High School Faculty has become an event looked forward to with much antici¬ pated enjoyment by the people of Mansfield and vicinity. This year was no exception for the tickets went like hot cakes as soon as it was announced that they were on sale at the Coles Pharmacy.
Last evening the much-looked-for event came off, and it was decided by many that "Nothing But the Truth" was some furlongs ahead of the plays of any former year. It was sure a very enjoyable affair, each part being taken and carried out in very nearly a professional   manner.
The scheme was laid in a New York broker office, the head of the firm (Prof. Willard Ackley) being a man whose morals were built on a "sliding scale." he being able to shine among religious people, and on a business deal had no compunction against skin¬ ning even a Bishop in a smooth and gentlemanly manner
Unfortunately he had a paitner in his business (Prof. Warren L. Miller), who  happened   to  have  a  conscience, and he wanted to be honest. Everybody in the neighborhood, except the part- I ner with a conscience, seemed to think j it perfectly right to tell a "white lie," j both in a social way and in doing bus- ] iness.    So they got up a bet, the head j of the  firm  betting  $10,000  that his partner    could    not    go  twenty-four hours without telling a lie, or misrep¬ resenting the  truth  in  some  manner. The  man  with   the  conscience  had  a terribly hard day of it, but came out "true blue," and in the end everything came out all right.    It was certainly very  amusing,  the  different  predica¬ ments Mr. Miller got into during  this eventful  day,  but he  overcame  them all   in  the  end,  biit  swore  he  would never tell the truth again as long as he lived
The other members of the cast were Misses Mary N. Paluso, Elizabeth Grove, Helen M. Steplei-, Elizabeth Bates, Pearl Hitchcock, Genevieve iSchanbacher and Messrs. Robert Col¬ ony, Allan Dougrhton and Leo Bailey. They all did splendid, handling their parts like old stage people. Leo Bai¬ ley, as a Bishop, couldn't ha-'e "been excelled. Allan Doughton is always good, while Robert Colony acted as natural as life.
The High School orchestra played some good selections. The only fault that could be found with them was that they didn't play more. Their music was great.
Olhers who helped to make the event a success were: Advertising Manager, Stacy Coles; Stage Manager, Francis Copp; Assistants, Lewis. Barden, El¬ mer Geiger, Hugh Cady; Prompter, Pearl Hitchcock; Make-up Committee, Hilda Day; Bemice Hawley, Edith French. Ushers, Gertrude Jupenlaz, Christine Cornwell, Barbara Jerald, Doris Whittaker, Esther Shaw, Esther Ayres, William Brown, Richard Mc¬ Connell, Alton Crippen, Chester Bai¬ ley, Harold Hulslander, Lucille He- gele.

A tasty lunch was served late in the evening for which all had worked up a fine appetite by playing athletic games. It was proved that Dr. Straughn was one of the best of hosts, as he kept everybody present doing .some kind of stunts. The eve¬ ning passed off very pleasantly, all de¬ claring they had enjoyed the time of their life.

Mansfield smothered Wellsboro last I Friday night, 49-12, in a Roosevelt Highway League game, which clinch¬ ed the championship for Mansfield for the second consecutive year. Mans¬ field has not lost a game in the league this year, while Wellsboro has yet to win a game. Time and again Mans¬ field carried the ball in to the basket with the bewildered Wellsboro lads desperately trying to atop the slaugh¬ ter. But as with many, the spirit was willing, but body and mind were not able to keep the well timed charges away.
Troy will invade the local court Thursday night. This will be the last league game for Mansfield and al¬ though the championship is not at stake, it will be a game well worth seeing. Before the game the League officials will meet for a good will din¬ ner at the Little Tavern.
