PRETTY GIRLS SHOW
 FANCY SPANISH STEPS
College Hero'' RehearsaIs Rapidly
 Progress For Charity.

Eight of the most graceful dancers in Bridgeport have been chosen for the Spanish dance in '"The College Hero '' Seven of these girls are shown in the accompanying picture. Miss Haze1tine Clark Is the leader. They have al- ready mastered the intricate steps of the graceful Spanish dance and these girls are determined to make their group one Of the best in the entire production, which is composed of thfr- ty different groups and chorusee, to- talling 500 performers in all. The cos times for the Spanish girls are red and black and are very pretty. Those in the Spanish group are the Misses Haze1tine Clark, Helen Drueke, Edna c. Garneau, Margaret L. Hughes, E1tz- abeth Hartigan, Marie Hammett, Augusta G. Rosenthal, Lucille G. Seery.
 A roll call was taken of the entire cast at yesterdays first grand re- hearsal on the theatre stage and ev- eryone of the 800 performers agreed to go on for a special matinee per formance next Tuesday afternoon May 20th. The Park theatre management has allowed this extra matinee without extra cost and there are so many people from outlying districts who cannot attend a night performance and do not wish to miss 'The College Hero'' that the management decided to grant their request. This matinee will commence at o'clock and will be over before o'clock.
 Subscription seats for this matinee as well as for the three night perform ances can now be secured at the com naittee headquarters at 402 Security building Almost all of the boxes have already been sold and crowded houses will surely rule at each of the four performances.
 The entire second act is having grand mass rehearsal on the Park theatre stage this afternoon between the matinee and evening performance of Old Home Week. Manager Fred Gilman of the Old Home Week has graciously consented to remove his paraphernalia to accommodate "The College Hero'' rehearsa1s.
 Tomorrow afternoon between five and seven the entire first act will again rehearse the stage. More makeup artists are desired to assist in making up the faces of the army of performers. Any who will assist in this work will be greeted with open arms if they will call and offer their services at The College Hero Head quarters at AO2 Security Building.

Theatre Goers Out
 In Force To Greet ''OId Home Week" Bill

As Mayor Wilson said from the stage Of the Park theatre last evening, Fred Gilman is certainly to be con graduated for the splendid bill of lo- cal favorites he has gathered together for his Old Home Week show and he deserves the praise and support of the people of Bridgeport to make this week the biggest in point of attendance the Park theatre has ever had.'' The show which MT. Gilman is producing at the Park this week is certainly one of which he, as well as every citizen of Bridgeport, may well feel proud From the time the curtain rolled up last evening on the great Le Baron, con- tortionist and flexible aerialist, until it rolled down after the motion pie lures the audience was kept interested every minute and the applause which rewarded every performer showed that the audience appreciated and en- joyed the bill.
 Probably the act which went best on the bill was the Three WheIans, Mar cored repeatedly and certainly proved that they are some popular with Bridgeport audiences. Hi1arion and Rosa1ie Ceba1los and Mona Desmond, who appeared here yesterday for the first time in A years had the star act on the bill. The costumes used in this act were worth the price of ad- mission alone to see and the dancing was of the kind which makes Broad way audiences sit up and cry for more.
 The ever popular Fred Gilman was there with a new line of character talk which brought down the house and Sara and Jane in an artistic interpre- tation of songs received round after round of applause
 The Sacrffice'' in which Theodore Babcock and his players presented a dramatic. little western episode, was a clever skit. Conway and Shea, blackface comedians and eccentric dancers, did some clever singing and dancing, and ''got across, with some real comedy. The Harry Williams trio, singers and Ethel May Ruby. re- fined whistler rounded off the best Old Home Week bill ever presented in this city.
 A capacity house prevailed at the theatre last evening and judging from the advance sale of tickets this will be the case at all performances throughout the balance of the week.

 All is not yet over, as the feature acts of the bill are yet to come and the introduction before a background of the most brilliant velvet sets forth Q charming black-eyed and IovabIe lit tie girl of the Hungarian type, billed and vouched for as the Gypsy Count ess. Whether that feature may be true or false, it is asserted she comes from the royal blood of the Hungar- ians, having lived in a little province beyond Buda Pesth, and that she can play a peculiar piano-harp-like instru- ment, called a cymbelIuIn is beyond peradVenture. She is not only ca pablo of rendering with the greatest dexterfty the weird rhapsodies of her native land, but with a covering thrown upon the strings, and her eyes half closed, offers the latest of Ameri- can song-hits. The little countess took the count from an audience that understood her work and appreciated.
 Mysterio" man of magic closed the bill by offering several clever es- capes from handcuffs, a trunk, and finally hanging head downward re- lfeved his person of Q straight jacket which had been tightly strapped upon him by a committee of two we'll known young men volunteering from the audience. As he will each night perform newer and more difficult tricks, according to his own an nouncement, a review upon his act is hardly appropriate other than to say his showing of last night is of the best.
 Talking pictures in which an anvil chorus featured, were a part of an ex- ceptionaI bill.

Capital Offering At
 Polls New Theatre

S This is a review of this week s vaudeville at the Poli Main street theatre. And before reading further let it be known that in all fairness to previous performers, the collection of acts shown last night, in action, color and quality is as good as any yet offered in the big house.
 To the vaudeville fam 1t will hard 1y be needed to say more than Albert Donnel1y, the 'tshadowgraphist'' leads the bill. For those, however, who are not acquainted with the classy standing before a screen, it may be told that with his fingers he can throw such elusive silhouettes upon a background, that one would believe he saw a woman walk into g. dentists of fee, sit in a chair and be kissed. Enough! He did that little thing yes terday among others and took merit ed encores.
 Weston and Keith follow. Both are clever comedy singers and takers, well dressed, and in addition they can dance. In fact they do so to such an extent that they gave enjoyment to the vast audience which gathered to of is said to be a local girl.
 Claire and Metcalf are operatic singers of the society kind They can harmonize and they can sing. Wn1ch IS some more than one can sometime say of those in vaudeville. Their act is artistic in it's simplicity and selection of melody.
 Then follows in the order given, an act called the Seven Bracks Appear ance alone is the signal for out burst of approval. Dressed in cfnna- mon co1ored tights and ranging in size like the seven steps of life, they perform acrobatic work which may be called juggling of humanity. The ease and dexter1ty with which the hu-
