Community Playhouse
Makes Its Bow Tonight
Opens With ''Pinafore," and
''The Three Twins' Will Be
THURSDAYS Offering

The Community Playhouse, a new ex-
pertinent by the War Camp Community
Service in theatrical entertainment en-
tirely independent of financial consid-
erations, will be opened tonight at the
Amsterdam Opera House. Marius Nc
Guffey, who will have charge of the
Community Playhouse, says there will
be ample opportunity for dramatists
ana amateur actors to test their abili-
ties before the most critical and appre-
clative audiences in the world-Ameri-
can soldiers and ex-soldiers from
France.
The first Offering tonight will be
"Pinafore"-a dress rehearsal by part
of the volunteer organization of 75O
persons who have entertained service
men at various functions. Between the
acts will be volunteer offerings by
vaudeville performers. Next Thursday
night the bill will be the Three
lwlns," with a number of we'll known
New York girls in the chorus.
New York never has attempted any
such thing like this" said Mr.. NC
Gutfey. IF any playwright has a show
which has been refused by the big
managers he can submit it to US and in
a few rehearsals he can ascertain it's
weak points. Any one can volunteer
his services. We will give him a chance
to make good"

Yeomanettes Join Tigers
In Staten Island FrOlic
Barbara Frictchie Post of the
Legion Is Guest of Captain
Dovcc at New Dorp

When Boycc's Tigers, with broom
sticks, and half hundred yeoman-
cites and marine reservsts, went over
to New Dorp, Staten Island, yesterday
afternoon and took possession of the
strip of sand at the Cedar Grove
Beach Club there was an astonishing
display of aquatic dexterity.
They were guests Of Captain A. L.
Boyce, head Of the famous Tigers, who
drilled so persistently before America
went into the war and who later were
favorites in all ranks of the A. f. +.
In natty white uniforms, with nau-
tical hat-bands and insignia on their
sleeves, the members of the Barbara
Frietchie Post Of the American Legion
very soon discarded their linen starch
mess and appeared in all kinds Of
bathing suits.
Because the navy girls were sport
ing around as Ncptune's daughters, or
because it just couldn't help it, hy-
droplanc came down to the water near
the bathers. 1t asccndcd later and dis
appeared.
There was friendly rivalry between
tho Tigers and the "yeos" in their
sports They drilled on the beach
sat on the sand and later had lunch
con of "slum" in the summer cottage
Of Captain and Mrs. Boycc.
Major S. T. Stewart made plea for
recruits and Mrs. j. Hungcrford Mil
bank suggested that women be accepted.
The Barbara Frictchic Post Of the
American Legion has just been organ
izcd with 225 ycomnnettes, marine fe-
male rescrvists and army nurses. Its
officers are: Post commander, Mrs.
Julin Whcclock; post vice commander,
Miss Pauline Hcsser; second post vice
commander, Miss Nellie Mnhoncy;
third post vicc-commander Mrs. Emma
Frnncia; post ndjutant, Miss Florence
Wright. and financial officer. Miss

 He poked the book on the table with a contemptuous foreffnger.
 Them machines may do all they say they will, but I'd hate to depend on a lot of zig-zag lines instead of the sniff ty look in liars eye and the slip-up he always makes. The more a man tries to alibi himself. the more chance there Is for him to give himself away. If they'd say a thing and no more, and just stick to it. they'd get by much better, but they're always tryin' to strengthen their story by addin' this and addin' that until. finally, they slip up and crab the whole works. Too many times the up-to-date meth ods add a lot of frills and make a mystery out of what ought to be noth- in but a plain pinch"

 There she sat down apparently to read-in reality to wait for the big black car that so frequently now of ar evening came bounding down the humpy street to Aunt Betsy's door.

 It was Darry to explain. It was, however, not Darry's voice that came but another's-a girls voice.

ry-somebody's come" She hung up the receiver.
 Pal1id and limp, she leaned against the wall. Dairy Kent engaged to Louise Baker, the rich manufacturers daughter, whom Mrs. Kent occasional ly entertained as her guest! Monica had been there to parties given in Louise's honor, but 1t had never oc- cured to her that Darry favored Louise. Once he had said, "Oh, Louise Is nice girl, sort of sister. And mothers fond of her." It was in no way an excuse, rather an explana- tion of his feeling toward Louise. And here they were engaged.
 It was Aunt Betsy who came to her and Monica wilted on Aunt Betsys shoulder "Oh, Is it true?"
 "Im afraid it is. I heard 1t this afternoon, and I wanted to tell you, but I guess I was cowardly. Mrs. Kent always has wanted Darry to marry money, and Louise Is fine girl. It's pity Darry isn't more de- serving of her. He probably knows

they had come to the wonan's apart ments. They're sitting and talking when the door opens and in comes a fellow with a gun.
 Lyons makes a jump to get the gun and the crook lets him have 1t. Then, frightened, he covers Andrews and makes his getaway.
 When he had finished, mentioned the guy we picked up and had the cops bring him in. Andrews gets one look at him and says That's the manl'
 other fellow, who was not much more than a kid, looked puzzled and wanted to know what was coming off.
 "'Positive,' answers Andrews. Wait and he calls out: Blanche! Come here!'
 Out of the next room there comes a woman who looks about thirty-f1ve, although I guess she might be more. She's all dolled up in evening clothes and she's been cryin'.

 "'Walter!' she cries, ho1din' out her arms.
 Mother says the kid and makes as though to go to her, but the cops yank him back What does this Iuean?' he asks her
 ''The woman turns to me Let him go,' she says, and her voice is awful weary and tired. Let him go. He didn't do it. He did it, and she point ed to Andrews.
 "Its lie,' hollers Andrews. She's tryin' to save her boy. Take him away.
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1919-07-30

cept for one thing Lyons wasn't the sort to stand for that kind of a hold up, and suddenly he made a dive for this fellow, who was covering him with a gun.
 "'As soon as Lyons jumped, I Jumped also, but be- pointing to the kid, grabbed me by the throat and held me off at arms length while he shot Lyons.
 Then he covered me with the gun and got away. After he had gone, I made the woman dress and we re- hearsed the story told you I want ed to save his family. I told her if she didn't back me up I would tell the truth and that she would be held as an accomplice. so she agreed.
 There's the man that killed Dick Lyons, and now you know the truth
 Yep I said to him, I know the truth and I motioned to the cops to put the bracelets on Andrews.
 The woman stood with her head hanging down, and when the cops let the kid go, he went over to her and looked into her eyes. The next min ute she was cryin' and sobbin' all over him.
 You see." said Cready, there was plain pinch that came near being a mystery. And from the lies that was fytn' around that room, I'll bet one of them machines would have busted a spring."
 But" said I, "I don't sec"
 Certainly you don't see. But if you had listened to Andrews tell how the kid held him off with one hand while he shot Lyons with the other, you'd see. Especially" he unused, eff you knew. as I did, that one of the kids arms was paralyzed so that he couldn't move 1t an inch"

Well" said to him when she fin 1shed; what about tt?'
 "All this time the kid stood lookin' from one to another without sayrn' a word.
 Its lie, Capta1n,~ said Andrews. l guess he thought that Captain stuff would help some with me. I'm a fool to have let myself in for this, but it's my own fault. I didn't give it to you quite straight before, but I will now" and he shot a glance of hate at the woman.
 Dick Lyons was my best friend, and 1t was to save his reputation that l lied. I figured that as long as you got the right man, little lie wouldn't do any harm. particularly if it saved others from pain and suffering.

 ons, but she wanted only what money she could get out of him, and when she saw that Lyons was listening to reason and was beginning to get lit tie sense and see her in her true light, she signalled to her confederate and tried to pull off the old badger game.
 The badger gamer I asked him. "'Yes; this fellow came in and pre- tended he was her husband. He swore he was going to shoot Lyons for lead ing his wife astray. You know how they work it, I guess. They had 1t framed up well. Their game was to have Lyons come across with a lot of money to keep it quiet and get out of trouble
