"There is a great industrial story of days and nights and months and years behind the manner in which Dr. Kalmus and his associates have boosted the quality and service of color to the industry, beaten down the price step by step, and maintained a great spirit of cooperation with production and exhibition. TECHNICOLOR MOTION PICTURE CORPORATION HERBERT T. KALMUS, President , 617 North La Brea Avenue, Los Angeles, Subscription Rate, $10.00 Per ■Ml ^Ite. DIGEST ANNUAL *7lie. 1/ea>i WcM. D OMESTIC box office standings take on values in this year of vanished foreign markets that are tremendous in importance. They are the only ratings that mean anything to the producer, director, player, and exhibitor. Gone—at least for years to come—are the days when known box office failures in the American market could be pushed to fabulous income heights and foisted on the suffering American exhibitor because of a shadowy "for¬ eign value.” Gone are the days—and we hope forever—when producers could know¬ ingly, and with "malice aforethought,” set out on the production of top budgetted pictures that would admittedly have no appeal to American mass audiences, earn no dimes for American exhibitors. All because of that same shadowy foreign market. ^ ^ So THE DIGEST ANNUAL comes to you at an opportune time.

It scored 550 points to opponents' nothing, and journeyed 3500 miles. We played Stanford on New Year's day, using no substitutes. On this great team were Neil Snow, and the remarkable quarterback Boss Weeks. Willie Heston, who [Pg 370]was playing his first year at Michigan, was another star on this team. A picture of Michigan's great team appears on the opposite page. "Boss Weeks' two teams scored more than 1200 points. If that team had been in front of the Chinese Wall and got the signal to go, not a man would have hesitated. Every man that played under Boss Weeks idolized him, and when word was brought to the university that he had died, every Michigan man felt that its university had lost one of its greatest men.

  • A Schott from the Bleachers
    A Schott From The Bleachers Yankees Played in New Orleans Before New York by Arthur O. Schott Member, Society for American Baseball Research The American League was organized and completed its first season in 1901. The eight original clubs were (in alphabetical order): Baltimore, Boston, Chicago, Cleveland, Detroit, Milwaukee, Philadelphia, and Washington. In 1902, St. Louis replaced Milwaukee, and in 1903, the New York Highlanders (later to become the Yankees) took over the Baltimore franchise. The league then kept the same eight clubs for 51 years until Baltimore returned to the league replacing the St. Louis Browns in 1954. After playing the first five games of the 1903 exhibition season at Atlanta (then in the Southern Association), the New York club visited New Orleans and played a five-game series against the old Pelicans. All five games were played at Athletic Park. The Highlanders won the series, three games to two. The first game of the series, played on April 8, 1903, was of special historical interest. The New York club, in the days before opening its inaugural season in the American League, played before a crowd of 1,200 New Orleans fans three weeks before they ever played a game in New York. The Highlanders’ home opening game was played three weeks later on April 30, 1903, a New York victory over Washington. The exhibition game in New Orleans on April 8th was well played through 7 innings, with the score tied 2 – 2. A total of six errors by the Pels made things easy for the Highlanders, who coasted to an 8 – 2 victory.
