MYSTERY PLAY WILL
 APPEAR AT 0RPHEUM

Ralph Herz, long a favorite on the legitimate stage, is now star of no little consequence before the screen. His play, The Mystery of No. A." is one of the best things he has ever appeared in. It is a comedy-drama of English life. It appears today and to- morrow at the Orpheum
 The story of "The Mystery of No. 47" follows:
 MT. Irwin Molyneux, with his better half, lived at No. 47 Hyacinth Road and collected china and wrote in chaste English of the minor poets of the sixteenth century. Then came the aaiffr known as "The Mystery of No. 47,' in which the gentle MT. Molyneux came to be regarded as the greatest criminal of two continents. The strange circumstances baffled Scot land Yard. brought the Bishop of Bedford deserved anxiety; mad last but not least, aided Lord Francis Phillimore of the Horse Guards Blue to marry the pretty housemaid. A de- lightful romance of love and adven- ture with the most popular actor of the American stage in the leading role.

A DRUM STORY IS
 NOT NECESSARILY
 DRUMMED UP NEWS!
The 15sth Infantry is In Need of Something Very Badly, So Dig Down In Your. Purses.
"B-R-R-R-R-R-R-BUM-BUM!"

That's about the best way to start off a story about drums; and this is a story about drums The 15Sth in fantry needs about sixteen drums. And the Review would like to help them get what they need. Everyone in the district felt duty bound to give the drafted men anything they want ed before leaving Arizona, but the men who have voluntarily enlisted have been shamefully neglected. No one seems to think that the volunteer ought to be given any attention, much less anything more substantial
 But now that the 15Sth is about to leave for California, a few good Arizonaians have awakened to the fact that no banquets nor presents nor anything else have been given them. These few-which, to be ex- act, are TWO in number - have turned over to the regiment what they most desire just at present: a drum apiece. The two contributions are the Vic Hanny company, of PhoenlX, and the Phoenix Rifle club.
 An army drum costs s16.50. If any man, woman. child or firm cares to give a drum to the "Old First" then they should send a check to Lieutenant Harold Hess at Naco. And if the man, woman, the child or the firm doesn't care to give whole drum, they ought to give part drum. This can be done by sending a check for any amount to the Review; and as sufficient funds are collected, the drums will be purchased singly. Iris worthy cause. Come across!

 Manager Rowland said tonight that he had not made up his mind as to the pitcher for tomorrow's game.
 Jackson Comments
 Joe Jackson insisted that the Sox batting slump was only of two days duration. and that the Sox back fences would come in for a bombardment once the club was under way.
 sncw in Chicago
 It showed here today and then rained, and there is a constant threat of a storm tonight, though the weath- CT man gave a cheering forecast of fair and cold. There was a winter nip to the air.
 The members of the national com mission sent word ahead that the game would be played unless it rained or showed or an unusual cold wave 
 Seats at Premium
 Seats for Saturdays game sold to- night at a high premium. Fifty dol lars was paid for box seat, and s10 was the figure set by the spectators for a grandstand seat. Late tonight a shivering line of fans gathered at the gates of the unreserved stands. Fires were lit and wrapped them selves in great-coats and blankets to keep warm.
 Trains coming from all parts brought hundreds to town to witness the struggle.

CHURCH SOCIAL PROVES TO
 BE JOYOUS AFFAIR
A Large Number of People Present to Hear M u C |, Short Talks and to Partake In the Eats"

The soical at the Christian church last evening proved most enjoyable. It started off informally, MT. Deatherage noticing. half through his opening re- marks, that he had forgotten his neck tie. However, the proceedings weren't halted; another tie was procured, hooked in place. and everything pro- ceded merrily. And the evening wound up informally with coffee and cake.
 The Program
 Mrs. Nave English opened the pro- gram with a splendid reading splen- didly delivered. She was followed by Syvilla Ferron, who also rendered a reading. Then came music by the military choir of Company L, 35th in- fantry, group of men who sang well and naturally. L. T. Frazier gave an address, and E. M. Bonnell and the Copper City quartet appeared in va riety of music. The quartet, like the White Sox, started off in good form, but weakened eventually. They were great" on stuff that they knew, but when they tried some old-timers" they did more laughing among themselves than they did singing. The crowd, however, entered into the spirit of the thing and chesred these four enter diners to the echo.
 The Magnavox
 Bonrell gave an exhibition of new invention in the talking machine line, t"e Magnavox. It was a fascinating riece of mechanism, reproducing sound many times.
 A brief address was delivered by n. Murphy and a patriotic speech ~''en by c. D. Hudson. Miss Jean 0r'nn sang Keep the Home Fires Burning" and Miles Merrill. president of the Loyalty League of America, rendered a stirring talk along in tensely national lines.
 Brewster Speaks
 The Rev. MT. Brewster departed from the general trend of the ad- dresses of the evening, and he set forth his views on the world war in convincing and pleasing way Fol lowing him, refreshments were serv- ed and general "get-together spirit" prevailed.
