The TheaterS
BY SHIRLEY OLYMPUS

The vaudeville bill at the Los Angeles
theater this week is up to he standard, al
though the headline act. "Freckles," is not as
strong as it might be- There is enough music
and laughter sprinked here and there to make
the program worth while.
Anne Blancke and her company present the
headline act dramatic sketch by Porter Elmer
son Browne The sketch is entitled "Freckles'
and is supposed to depict incident of New
York life. II is evident that the payet is
being used to display the boyish talents of
Miss Bancke, who is a wee miss.
The most unique turn the bill is the Of
fering Of Lew and Nellie Shaw. Mr.. Shaw Is
an expert biiardist and makes some remark
ably fancy shots during the exhibition.
Ray W. Snow, in a monologue in which
there is merit Newell and Niblo saxaphone
and xylophone players whose act is not new
to Los Angeles but always enjoyable; Matte
Lockette, a child soubrette who sings childish
songs. tells childish stories and does clever
burlesque of an amateur dancer; the Velde
trio of gymnasts. who have some we'll trained
dog assistants and the laugh-o-scope complete
the program.
Two hundred and fifty members OF the Young
Mems Institute formed a theater party that
attended last nights performance of 1.-The

&c o. d." at the Olympic presented
by the Alphin & Fargo players, is perhaps
one OF the funniest satires that popular theater
has offered. Monte Carter as a Hebrew hotel
keeper, AL Franks and Pete Gerald, an Irish
man and German, form a trio of comedians
whose every move upon the stage calls for
laugh. Vera Stanley, the chick little SOU
brette who is now at the Olympic, makes
favorable impression. Mabe Bunyea as the
circus queen makes a pretty figure and sings
some delightful songs. Tracy McDermott
renders some tuneful solos.
