--An unsuccessful attempt to leap a 500 ioot cliff on a motor cycle and descends to' earth in a parachute today probably will cost the life of Osbornc, pilot and stunt aviator. Doctors at a hospital, where Osborne, tangled! in the cords of the parachute, which failed to open, was taken, said he had little chance to live. Osbornc, with an airplane parachute strapped to his back, dove off the Huntington palisades, north of here today, planning to open the safety device as soon as his motorcycle a the edge of the precipice and float gently to the sands of the beach below. The parachute failed to open and the motorcycle, dropping into a mass of telephone and telegraph wires, hurled Osborne to the earth. Hero of Resent Rescue.

Recently Osbornc rescued a woman stunt flier during an air circus at Clover field here. The woman. "Bobby" Chase, became tangled in the running gears of an airplane from which she was to make a'stunt parachute drop and dangled aloft, unable to continue her drop to earth and also unable to regain the safety of the plane. Osborne hurried aloft in another plane, made the transfer to hers and cut her loose. She floated I t'o earth, receiving only minor injuries.

The act is prettily staged with brilliant drops and becoming costumes. The four girls who comprise the ensemble arc shapely and limber of limb and do their steps with a precision that's delightful. It is the "Dance d'Amour" that Miss Blanche exhibits her suppleness which fs at once graceful and spectacular.

She flics with the ease of a bird and perches in many symmetrical poses on the shoulders and hips of her partner. Seldom arc artists of this caliber to be seen in vaudeville. George B. Alexander, fat, jolly and nald-hcadcd, is the central figure in an entertaining sketch, "The Failure," which he is supported by Grace Bishop and Lawrence Williams. The playlet has many comedy lines that arc wholesome and really laugh-provoking, and its the.me is philosophic in that the fellow who considers himself a failure isn't that at all.

Frank and Mac Stanley open the variety with a series of lariat stunts. Frank" throws i a four or five minute turn after the fashion of Will Rogers- An impersonation of a Chinese by Harry Fiddler is a classic. Bob Stone and Lew Leever are in next-to-closing position with some low-brow' comedy that wins considerable applause. With all its thrills, gayety and col- orfulncss the famous English Derby comes to the screen of the Marlow for showing with this week's vaudeville. "The Sporting Lover," starring Conway Tcarle.

This is an E. M. Ashcr picture for First National release. Barbara Bedford is featured opposite Tcarle. The scenes showing the Derby were actually photographed in England.
