Miss Jffiznbeth Grimball, probably the best known pageant director in' this country, has been engaged to direct the papeant and will probably report for duty about May 1, and it will take six 'weeks of preparations and rehears ing for the event. Miss Grimball, whose home is in New York, is greatly interested in the production and is keopin? in close touch with those who are handling the event in Wilmington. She is now making a study , of the manuscript and will also study the Scores of new things already here for your inspection tomorrow.

The referee then picked him up flung him oyer his shoulder and carried him to his dressing room. The fail went two hours and six minutes. "As Metro was designated the winner a storm of hoots greeted him when he sought to explain that he was merely trying to win the match and had no desire to murder Turner. The ex champlen later gave jut a statement exonerating Metro of any blame for his injury. "Metro won the second fall in six minutes. In turning the trick he pick ed up Turner's head and beat it on the floor, a practice permitted in the rules, but was roundly jeered for it. "Before the first fall ended fans were treated to a classy brand of wrestling. Turner was kept on the -defensive much of the time." v Hanson will meet ifprrn rn tv,.

Another important committee that will begin its work within the next ten days will be the cast committee, which will look over the field with the idea of getting a full list of those who can assume the principal parts, though, of course, no roles will be assigned until Miss iGrim bail reaches Wilmington, as herjudg-tnt-tit will naturally prevail. However, much preliminary work will be done in ordf r that no time will be 'lost and Jiiss Grimball may have a . thorough understanding of the entire proposi' on.

C. A. last night in a good, clean, lively game, by a score of 46 to 9. The locals clamped down on the visitors as the game progressed, and the Wilmington highs kept the ball in their possession throughout the sec ond half, preventing, tne visitors from scoring a point in mis period. Kaleigh played a good game, but the locals demonstrated their superiority, as is proved conclusively by the score. The pass work of the Wilmington highs was the best done by them this sea son. Duls played an excellent game, scor ing seven of the 23 field goals, and Shopard and Hewlett also played a good game, each scoring five field goals. Duls held his opposing center to three baskets, and Shepard guarded pretty close. The following is the line-up: Wilmington- High School Shepard, forward; Holden, forwards;. Duls, cen ter; Hewlett, guard; Koonce, guard. Raleigh High School Green, for ward; Edwards, forward; Satterfield, center; Powell, guard; Bynum, guard.

Westbrook, of the locals, was out of the game, and Holden filled in at for ward in the first half and made good. William Montgomery acted as referee, Hugh Smithson as time keeper and Graham McNair as scorer. Next Saturday the New Bern highs will play the locals in the final game of the competitive series. After this game, the championship elimination series begins, and it is hoped by the members of the local team that Wil mington high school "five" will win the state championship this season. Aubrey Kelley, manager, will leave for Chapel Hill tomorrow night, where he goes for a conference with the high school basketball team managers of the state to arrange the schedule for the elimination series that will be played to determine the champions of western and eastern Carolina, and of the state.

' By Cy E. HUGHES, International ' Sew Serviee Staff Cor respondent - LOS ANGELES, Feb. t2 While the closing of larce industrial plants in the east in the last few months has been felt In many ways in the economic world, resulting in some communities In business depression, the temporary curtailment of production in the large motion picture studios here is said to have a beneficial effect and to have served long-desired need. Inquiries at the largest plants today show that the lull which set in. about two months aso' is almost over, with most of the big organizations working at least 80 per cent 'of the time, and with some of them working, full time and even overtime. . It . was denied that large numbers of persons are out of 1920 was responsible, in a measure, for the recent lessening of production ac tivities.. But this has now 'been adjust ed, and the motion picture industry is facing the era of its greatest pros perity. 'Production activities at the Lasky studio alone at the present mo ment exceed . the mark set at any time during the past six or eight months." IVo Serious Shock Joseph Engel, in charge of Metro's gradual, however, no husre . number of J Hollywood studios, said people beinsr left without work as I understand was reported. Many ac tors suffered slight cuts in their sal aries and there was a weeding out of all but' the test help in the larse or ganizations. "One of the splendid results of the recent slump for it is now about over will .be the elimination of lly by nigrht' producers who turned out cheap offerings which have often been so ob jectionable to state censorship boards." Cecil B. de Mille, director-general of the Famous Players-Lasky corpora tion, said: , "The motion picture industry was never on a sounder business basis than at the present time. Such retrench-' ment as there has been in the last few ! weeks has been along the line of cur tailment in wasteful and extravagant production methods and has differed little from the corresponding retrench ment in all industrial, lines. . i . -"Overproduction during, the : year of "Recent reports that bir studios are closing down and that armies of play ers are unemployed are absolutely un true. Such reduction of production as has taken place has occurred in so gradual a manner that there has been no serious shock to the industry. "There was a maximum of produc tion of motion pictures last year,' with the result that a certain percentage of the films made have not yet been as similated by the exhibitors. This, too, has operated to keep down the number of -new pictures made. "But with a reduction of the Quan tity of productions the quality is raised correspondingly. Obviously, the tise of the same organization to make fewer pictures, with the greater length of time devoted to each production will result in a better product." Irving Thalberg, of the Universal 'or ganization, said: . "Groundless reports tnat tne maus- in most cases from small, irresponsi ble producers who have gone into busi ness on other people's money, and have been forced to suspend operations when their loans were called in. "I can say for Universal that it is busier now than at any time during the past year." SHIPPING ARRIVED The Clyde steamer Lake Fillmore," from New York, with general cargo.
