"A Cowboys Girl" opening for
the week last night, is the sort of
play that fills the house. 1t is sup
posed to be laid out on the Texas
border In the times everybody
likes to hear about, and the thrills
are all there, although in moderate
doses. as there are only killings.
Considerable comedy and character
work is carried through the piece,
and there is nothing in it to feel
bad about. Perez Benton has the
leading part as Annanias Bolivar.
He also has a musical turn and
monologue that won number of
encores. Lulu Lufby plays the
cowboys girl part.
