“A MAN OF ACTION” PLEASES
AUDIENCE AT THE LIBERTY
Does the pampered heir to millions
get the best of life after all? Douglas
MacLean as a “jellyfish” millionaire
in Thomas H. Ince’s “A Man of Ac
tion,” evidently came to the conclu
sion that the kick had gone out of his
life, for smarting under taunts of his
lovely sweetheart, he determined to
get the fillip he has missed. How he
more than succeeded is vividly and
mirthfully portrayed in the latest
! Thomas H. Ince mystery comedy
shown last night and again tonight
at the Liberty theatre. Marguerite de
la Motte, Raymond Hatton and a splen
did cast interpret the swift action.
It is a crook story and the plot
thickens toward the end in the most
approved manner. Everyone who saw
it are loud in their praise.
Secretary Mellon wants an appro
! priation of §50,000,000 to repay Fed

Seward Team Wins
Anchorage Match
(Special to The Gateway)
ANCHORAGE, Jan. 30.—Tired, sore
but happy and victorious, the Seward
Crimsons took the first game of the
series from the High School Whites,
the Gateway girls triumphing over
their Anchorage opponents by a score
of 10 to 4 in the High school gym last
night. Not running as true to form
as when they played in Seward, the
High school girls, though playing a
hard and steady game, seemed over
whelmed by the attacks of the vic
tors, and although their defense was
a strong one, it broke down at times
allowing the Crimson five to break
their goal line. Helen Balderston
was the star of the game, making
three baskets, while her forward part
ner. Dorothy Baughman made one,
and Cecil Leslie one.
The game played last night was the
first of a series to be played in An
chorage by the Seward Crimsons and
Anchorage High school girls. The
second game will be played this even
ing at 7 o’clock in the High school
gym, and should the score be in favor
of the Anchorage Whites, the play-off
will be staged at a time to be an
| nouneed later.
In honor of the pretty visitors from
Seward, and their chaperon, Mrs.
Parke L. Stump, and the Misses Ec
cles and Matthews, the Elks will give
one of their popular dances tonight.
The town is extending itself to give
the visitors a good time.

Erin To Restrict
Use Of Liquors
DUBLIN, Jan. 29.—Drastic restric
tions on the consumption of liquor
in the Irish Free State are accumu
lating as the government’s intoxi
cating liquor bill progresses through
its stages.
Kevin O’Higgins, the Free State
minister of justice, during the course
of debates, forshadowed a big re
duction in the huge number of
saloons throughout the country. He
told members of the senate that the
general feeling of the country was
that 15,000 saloons produced to keen
a struggle for existence.
Among some of the restrictions
already adopted is one providing
for the closing of all saloons on St.'
Patrick’s Day, so there is a proba
bility that in future the shamrock
will have to be drowned in non
alcoholic beverages.
The government’s chief conten
tion for the adoption of the new
