GREEN BACK,
 SUITS PENN ELEVEN.

Philadelphia, Oct. 16-Coach Bill Hollenback sent the Penn gridiron warriors through a long drill yester- day afternoon. The tackling dummy was badly treated, and to top off the days work a light scrimmage was held. Head Coach Bob Folwell Is very i'll at the home of his wifes parents in Landsowne. The Penn tutor, who has been i'll with influenza for two weeks, is threatened with pneumonia.
 Hobart Light, one of the greatest offensive and defensive backs that have graced a Pennsylvania team in years, is not coming back for foot ball at Franklin Field, nor for studies at the Quaker dental school.
 "Hobey," as an athlete, is through with Penn for all time. Turned down in his efforts to enter the S. A. T. c. at the university, because he was over the 21-year age limit, Light is await ing the time he will be called in the draft. During the day he is working at the Bethlehem Steel plant in his home town.
 Another player was lost to Penn yesterday when it was announced that Rough House" Kraus had received an appointment to a central officers training camp and would leave today Kraus has been a star in the back field and was fixture on the Vars ity

PARK

Entertaining and at the same time doing it well is a task more formida- ble than it might appear on the sur face of things. More so is this partic- ularly apparent in burlesque. An at- traction has to be mighty good and different to focus more than passing attention upon it, especially in those houses forming the Columbia circuit. However, one production seems to have come in for an unusual need of praise and acclaim. This is known as The Butterflies of Broadway" which will be presented by the Sam Howe Big Show Company at the Park thea tre, commencing Oct. IT. One of the best singing and dancing choruses heard in many a day is one of the features. It is composed of 30 men and women. A large cast headed by Jim Coughlan has been engaged, forming all told company of almost 50 people. Built for laughing pur- poses exclusively this offering may be depended on to fulfill it's mission of laughter, and that is all that can be expected of any affair constructed for the purpose of amusing an exact ing and discriminating public. The tired business man and prosperous intuition worker need not worry about forgetting the cares of Topsy Turvy world after witnessing this show. The latest song hits, surprises, features and original innovations are conspicuous. Among those who will take hand in the festive proceedings are: Sam Howard, brother of Eugene and Willie Howard; Helen Tarr, one of the daintiest and cleverest prima donnas in burlesque; Grace Fremont, the Perpetual Motion comedienne; Jeanette Colbert, Hattie Beall, Basil Buck and others.

WHAT'S GOING ON IN THE WORLD OF THEATRES AND AMUSEMENT
LYRIC

When critics agree on the relative merits of theatrical production the general public can rest assured that the play Is well worth their while. This is what happened when the thea t!ical critics from the local newspa- pers commented on '"rhe Ghost Breaker" which is being produced at the Lyric theater all this week by the Poli Players and which has al- ready pleased the largest attendances of any theater in Bridgeport. Be- sides having a meritorious production the management has made arrange ments for preventing the spread of the prevailing disease so far as the Lyric theater is concerned by disiH- fecting the house after each perform ance and taking every other precau- tion for the protection of it's pa- irons.
 The Ghost Breaker" is a real live melodramatic comedy through which drama, comedy and pretty love story are evenly distributed. The story 1s replete with enough thrills to please the most sensational minded, enough laughs to delight those who enjoy comedy and for the romantic, the love story has an appeal that will be sure to hold the interest The scenic ef- | fects are both beautiful and realistic | and add much to the value of the per formances. The story of the play | begins in America and the final climax comes in sunny Spain in one of the old haunted castles of which one of l ten hears but seldom sees. During | the presentation of the last act the ] ghost makes its appearance and gives
 one creepy, shivery feeling that is only dispelled by the happy ending of 1 the play.
 By special arrangement' the man. agement has obtained for the famous
 Sunday night photoplay concert a | picture entitled ''The Purple Lily,
 with Clay Clement, the Poi Players | leading man, as the star. MT. Gle
 ment was once in moving pictures
 and those who have seen him on the i stage will no doubt be delghted to sec | him act on the screen. In addition to this Charlie Chaplin, the popular
 screen comedian, will also be one ot
 the features, not to mention the other
 attractions which are a part of the
 regular program.
