owen Ball, indicted by the grand
jury for the burglary of the Abbott q
Son hardware store early last Novem-

other place. The story is built around
the hero OF the Yale crew, Dick Seely,
who is in love with his roommates
sister The usual tribulations to be
encountered in any love story are de-
picted, and the hero wins, not only over
his rival for athletic honors on the
crew. but the girl too. Mr.. Clinton
Clay appeared as Dick Seely, and his
voice was a real pleasure. He pos
sesses a good barytonc, and appeared
in several solos. Another delightful
musical feature was the Yale quartet,
composed of Mcssrs Roy cambridge,
Donald Crisp, II. e. Chaffee. and Ivan
Arbuckle. Mr. Arbuckle, the bass, sang
when the Bell in the Lighthouse
Rings" in II very artistic and finished
manner His appearance in this solo
was another of the real musical treats
of the evening. one of the scenes fea-
tured was the boat race between Yale
and Harvard. which was quite realistic.
The audience was small and missed -
very pretty thing.
