oMAN WHO owns BRoApwAY.n

Music nd comedy are appreciated by
playgoers. This was again demonstrated
last night at the Avenue Theatre, when
a large udience applauded The Man
Who Owns Broadway" from beginning
TO end. The songs and choruses are so
tuneful. thdt they will be whistled on
the streets long after the engagement
on the local stage ends. Especially IS
this the case with the song I'm in Love
With One of the Stars 1t is particu-
larly catchy. Bernard Thornton, in the
role Of Sydney Lyons, is making a good
impression.
The Conness Players enter into the
spirit OF this musical comedy with zest
that has much tc do with the success of
the production. The comedy is inter-
spersed with the best musical numbers
that have been heard at the Avenue this
season. As a result there is action from
the rise TO the fail of the curtain. The
comedy is good, the airs are all tuneful
and the entire play is enjoyable in the
extreme.
