BeIasco-.Tea for Three.o

Tea for Three" a comedy by Roi
Cooper Megrue, and numerous other
successes. gives promise Of prov
ing the novelty Of the present the
atrical season. The uneXpeCtedness
of the denouement of Tea For

ing features.
Tea For Three" Is presented by
Selwyn & Company. who not only
brought their new musical play
here but in addition, have booked
three other plays for this city all
within a few weeks.
The burden of developing the
story of Tea For Three" rests Oh
three characters. For these three
Selwyn & Company have spared
nothing to insure the adequacy OF
the performance. Arthur Byron and
Fred Perry play the two principal
male roles and Margaret Lawrence
has the leading Toman's role. Fred
Perry has bee: in a number of pep
ular suc-c--es. Nothing he has
done. however, overshadows his
performance in "On Trial" the sen.
sational hit of a few seasons back.
Margaret Lawrence left the stage
at the height of her career to
marry. She has finally been per-
suaded to play this part, largely
because she has determined to offer
her services as an actress to those
arranging for the entertainment of
the men in France.
Tea For Three" will be seen at
the Belasco Theater for one week.

Goetz. started so auspiciously with
"Hitchy-Koo" q year age, had not
been all sunshine, but that either
would ever display, an anita gonistic
and aggressive attitude toward the
other was not suspected in Lambs
circles.
+ Nevertheless, Hitchcock has not
produced "Hitchy-Koo, 1885," with
out hearing in a belligerent manner
from Goetz. Various rumors have
been in circulation that Goetz either
levied or attempted to levy an attach
ment upon the Hitchcock production
just as It was leaving New York for
Atlantic City. where it is now in the
throes Of its preliminary week. Ger
tainly Goetz threatened an injunction,
claiming that he legally owned a

What the Press Agent Says, That Say |

Fred Perry. who will be seen in
Tea for Three" this week at the
Belasco Theater. has more personal
friends among the men Of his pro-
fession, it is likely. than any other
actor on the American stage today.
The fact that he is appearing in this
new comedy by Roi Cooper Megrue,
may be traced directly to the fact
that Mr.. Perry Une time saved a per-
forman"e of another play by Mr.. Me-
grue by jumping in without an hours
warning and with scarcely time to
read the part over, and played the
role Of a man who had been suddenly
called to the bedside of a dying son.
On that occasion, the play. had only
opened three days before and there
had been no time to secure under
studies for the parts.
When the cali came, the actor
thought over the list of the men he
Knew. who might be able to- NIL in
for him on the one evening. Mr.. Perry
came to his mind. He asked permis-
sion from Mr.. Megrue and the man.
ayers and securing it, asked his favor
or the man who never refused a IA
vor to anybody. No sooner asked,
than granted. Mr. Perry went on;
played well and-wouldn't listen to
the actors offer to recompense him.
But that was an exceptional case.
The real reason for his remarkable
popularity Is the fact that around the
Lambs Club he is always called the
actors friend. He has been known to
sit up all night with a youngster
struggling with a part and IL he is
not working himself he never fails
to % and see a play in which some
young friend Of his Is working, the
better to offer him friendly sugges-'
tions intended to help the actor to
improve and get ahead. 81
