LYRIC

Beginning with the matinee and evening" performances today the Poli Players will present that we'll known and popular farce comedy Johnny Get Your Gun" for the entertainment of Bridgeport's pleasure seekers at the Lyric theatre all this week. There will be two performances daily, as usual, the first at 2:15 o'clock in the evening. The usual prices will pre- vail and reservations can be made at any time between g o'clock in the morning until the same hour in the evening on any day during the week.
 "Johnny Get Your Gun," first pro- duced by John Cortthe at the Criter- ion theatre. New York, was written by Edmund Lawrence Burke and later revised by Dorothy Donnelly, and as a comedy drama it stood little old New | York on its ears. Mir. Burke had a new idea, he had centered his story on a motion picture hero; not the namby pamby leading man but the real hero, the wild riding, cliff jump 1 ing, straight shooting daredevil of the films. This youth, brought into the society of the effete East, proves a riot of good clean fun and good cheer and with the added novelty Of the motion picture studio of the California i coast, Johnny Get Your Gun ran for a year in New York before it was sent on the road" where it duplicated its success. The comedy drama has been considered one of the best of the two dollar New York hits and it's produc- ton here by Manager Arvine is con- 1 sidered a grand coup that should be appreciated by Bridgeport theatre goers.
 Johnny Get Your Gun' is not by i any manner of means a war play. Ire gun that Johnny uses is a prop from the motion picture studio and what he does with it would make the fa- nous Stella" of Oscar Hammerstein fame laugh right out loud. The pro-
 duction is in a prologue and three sets and from beginning to end is the | kind that the average theatre -goer will enjoy. There is not an idle mo-
 ment throughout and the laughs are
 plentiful.
