LYRIC

Tn the Lyric theatres current pro- duction of F''The Yellow Ticket" that sensational three-act melodrama of the Russian treatment of subjects, the Lyric all-star stock players gave a very creditable production.
 In addition to the regular stock company, there were several addi- tions.s including Walter Marshall, for several years one of the principal members of the B. F. Keith Stock company circuit, who made a hit as Baron Stephen Audrey" Of course, Ethel Waldron as "Marya Varenka', scored strongly, as did the popular leading man, David Herb1in, as the young Anne ican, John Rolfe". Miss Margaret Armstrong, as "Margery Seaton," as usual, gave an, excellent performance.
 A better play than ''The Yellow Ticket" could not be chosen to fit the talent of this extraordinary orga- nization of players, the best ever seen in Bridgeport at the Lyric schedule o1 prices. For Sunday night Manager Isham has arranged two special pro- grams of motion pictures, from.6 to 8, and from 8 to 10. The feature of which will be the seventh big epi- sode of that magnificent military spec .tacle, Liberty also Bentley's .orches- tra and several other special pictorial productions.
