AMERICAN PLAY
At The AMERICAN
Norman Hackett in Glass
mates" Will Make First
Bow Here as Star

Sissieretta Jones, the Black Patti
and her "troubadours" will appear for
the last times at the American theater
this Saturday afternoon and evening
and at the Sunday matinee Norman
lSackett, popular young actor, will
begin weeks engagement in William
c. de Mile and Margaret Turnbulrs
play, Classmates
This star will make his first
appearance here in modern character.
He has already won for himself an en-
viable position in the classic drama and
will be recalled with pleasure for his
fine work with Louis James, Frederick
Warde. E. II. Sothern and Julia Mar
loWe--a substantial foundation of which
few Of the young actors can boast.
Classmates" appeals to the love of
the military in the first act, West
home life in the south in the second !;
to the love of adventure in the thrill
ing jungle scene in the third, and in
the, culminauon of justice in the last !;
and all the time il appeals to the love
of America by Americans.
Norman Hackett. playing the chief
part, is peculiarly well adapted by ma
ture and by his scholarly attachments
to make much of the heroism of Dun
can Irving.
He has imagination, balanced by a
line perception of truth and righteous
ness of thought and living, and his
sense OF verbal color is as apparent as
his distinctively fine perception of the
primary qualities of what the actor
pany supporting Haekett Is an excep~.
tionally good one and the same produce
