THEATRICAL NOTES

How often people say: IF only
Mansfield had role I'm which his
powers could find full vent, in which
he could act right out" The answer to
this yearning appears to be "Old Hell
delberg" in which he is to be seen at
the Grand opera House on Monday
night. This is not only a massive pro-
duction involving a company of more
than one hundred singers and actors
but there is acting for Mansfield. A |
special train is required to transport
his enormous company and production
of "Old Heidelberg" Mansfield viii

Described technically as n comedy in
three acts. Cousin Kate" the new
play I'm which Ethel Barrymore is this
season presented by Charles Frohman.
and in which she win be seen here at
the Grand Opera House on Saturday
night, is said to tell an idyllic love
story of the Sweet Lavender" type.
Miss Barrymore's success in the title
role has added much to her growing
and already firmly established reputa-
ton, while the play itself has been
praised by all the critics Cousin
Kate" was originally produced in Lon
don, is the work OF Hubert Henry
Davies, a young English playwright,
and has had a long run on the other
side of the water.
The Grand Opera House management
has been fortunate in securing for tonight
William Bonelli and Rose stahl in Mr..
Bonelfs tasteful and brilliant production
of last seasons great Berlin success, "A
Man Of the World" Both Mr.. BonerH and
Miss Stahl are well-known and recog-
nized artists They arc ac.ss, of the high
er class. and their work Is DISTINGUISHED
by all the attributes which go to make
up the actor ana actress Of inherent talent
and through dramatic education. Tho
play, which, after an. Is the thing. where
men and women Of ability are concerned
is in the nature of high-class social
study.
Smith O'Brien came to the Lyceum
Theatre yesterday afternoon and last
night in THE Gamekeeper." The play
is a pretty drama of the familiar irish
type and was interpreted by a capable
company. It is one Of the best attrac-
tions which has been at the theatre
this year and its reception was cordial
to a degree. The songs of Mr.. OBrien
were particularly well received and
Baby Brown won every heart in theau-
dience. In Mr. O'Brien's support are

comes highly recommended By the tight
followers from over the border, F1tZpat-
rick decided to satisfy himself as to the
aliens ability and had him tried out on
two different occasions in private against
LEGAL boys of good regulations.
The first bout Riley won on knock
out in two rounds and in the other the
Canadian outciassed and outclevered ms
adversary so completely that the referee
stopped the bout in the third round at
point when the New Yorker was prac-
ideally out.
Riley is a French Canadian by birth,

Central high met defeat at Eau Claire

that city Score. 16 to o. Both teams
PLAYED q hard game The grounds We're
wet and the ball as a result became wet
and slippery This made playing difficult.
The Eau Claire team was very much
heavier than the Central team and used
their weight to advantage in line buck

long runs as the runners were sure to
slip. Eau Claire made one touchdown in
the first half and the other two were
made in the second half by straight line

Claire team. played a good game. Most
of their gains were made by him. On
the defensive he was quick to see a hole
and fill it up. He was their last years
star and has had considerable experience
in football. Horwitz. Fitsimons and
OIund played the backf1eld for Central

them to short gains. Central had one
chance to score. Clark secured the ball

Then through gains by hard mass play
they forced the ball down to the S-yard

Locals Made Up in Speed What They
Lacked in Weight

Mechanic Arts high school played their
first scheduled game at Red Wing against
the high school of that city and when
the game was over the score was % to 10
in their favor. The result was a surprise
to the Mechanics as well as the Red
Wing players. as the former were sup
posed TO be in a crippled condition. The
team at Red Wing outweighed the st.
Paul team ten pounds to the man, but
the latter made up in swiftness what
they lost in weight. Time and again they
succeeded in breaking through the line.
The first touchdown was made in the first
half when the Mechanics by straight line
bucks worked the pigskin from their own
15-yard line down to Red Wings 20-yard
line and then Jensen broke through and
crossed the line with three of his oppo-
nents hanging to him. Throughout the
whole game Holloway. Hinkley and Jen-
sen succeeded in making gains of from
10 to 20 yards and bringing the ball close
to Red Wings goal. but at the critical
moment a tumble was made and they
lost the ball. 1t was owing to these
fumbles that Red Wing was able to score

the Athletics. Twenty-Five of these points
were scored in the first half. when the

The newcomer. who will arrive early in

manager. Andre Johnson. writes from
London that his man is the terror of the
Balkans and the Danube littoral. He is
best at catch-as-catch-can and when he

OAKLANDS WIN GAME
FROM HASTINGS HIGH
centrals Independent Team Score Twice
on Heavier Eleven

The Oakland football team, which is the
independent team at Central high, played
Hastings at Hastings ana succeeded in
defeating them by a score of IL to 0. The
Oakland team is much lighter than the
Hastings team but their work both IN
dividually and as team, was far supe-
rior. This was their first game and they
showed great speed. The interference on
offensive play was a feature. The Hast
ings eleven, although defeated, put up a
stiff game, considering the. short time
which the team has had for practice.
There was some trouble about getting a
coach, and this delayed the practice until
last week. Some of the men never played
football before. but they have the weight
and nerve and will probably figure high
in the interseholaStic championship, pro-
viding they continue hard practice. The
ball was in Hastings territory almost the
entire game. Only twice did they succeed
in making their distance on the St Paul
boys. On the other hand. st. Paul was
held for downs but three times, and We're
able to make long gains around the ends
by the assistance of well trained in
reference.
