LIEUT.. SWAN SAT UPON

It makes little difference, in moving picture studio, whether you're a grand and glorious hero or not, when it comes to assigning roles. For instanre, there's Lieut.. George Swan, recently at Nerdun as ENpedi- ente Officer with the Morgan -Harjes Unit of the Foreign Legion. He was recently presented the solid gold cup offered by Margarita Fisher to the first Flying A actor to distinguish himself at the front, and has all sorts of laureis bedecking his noble brow.
 Yet in "Charge It to Me" Miss Fishers latest starring vehicle, he plays the part of Hercules Strong ' described in the subtitle as "a one cylinder flivver with a low mental compression and figures as the vic tim of a struggle with a burglar "BulI' Montana. Swan preferred to arise after the making of each scene and get strengthened out. but "BulI'

POITS

Eight jolly tars, formerly in Uncle Sam's service overseas, are featured in the program at Poli's, the last half of the week. They comprise the U. S. Navy Octette, dispensers of jazzy songs and dances. Tom Devany and Happy Stanley are the stellar enter tainers of the troupe.
 Harry Breen, "the ambassador from Brazil---where The nuts come from, |" is an extra added attraction. MT Breen is one of vaudeville's best known artists and in his own peculiar style of entertaining is in a class by himself.
 The feature photoplay is ''The Test of Honor" a gripping five-act drama, in which John Barrymore is present. ed. The Pathe News is another at tractive photoplay feature.
 Ford ts Urna, formerly of the Four F'ords, ren oVned as dancers, will pre- sent a a.new program of syncopatton.

SHUBERT.

fin the race for novelty in the nlu- sical comedy field SeIwyn & Company are confident that they have sur passed competing theatrical producers in their newest musical offering, Among the Girls which is the at traction for two nights beginning May 9th at the Shubert Theatre, New Ha- ven, with a matinee Saturday. To disclose the idea and the ultra stag ing of the piece in advance would be to detract from its enjoyment to those who take advantage of this oppor- tunity to view the play ahead of its metropolitan presentation, but suffice to say that those who miss it will re- gret it when they hear Among the Girls discussed with admiration the coming season.
 Roi Cooper NIegrue and Henry BlOs- som, two of the most brilliant con- trjbutors to the stage, prepared the story and lyrics and the music was composed by that wizard of melody, Raymond Hubbell. Staged by R. 1T. Burnside, who was loaned by Charles R. Dillingham; for this notable effort by Selwyn S5 O.. and with costumes created by TItckson, Fifth avenues most costly and bizarre mOdiste, the settings have been prepared in keep ing with such an array of talent. w nile the most important part the fun and action, Is in the hands of the best cast ever assembled for a musical play, including Percival Knight, Denman Maley, Earl Ben ham. Evelyn Cavanaugh, Florence .Deshon, Christopher Hayes, Gertrude Fowler, Beverly West, Dave Cathn, Louise Cook, George A. Wright, ST, CaraHnn Waide, Req Martin Edith Burton, Renee Deltin, May Elsie, Mary F. Britain and a. beauty chorus that is expected to become as famous for charm and looks a-s any ever as sembled on the stage.
 Among the Girls" Is founded on a story of a young man who is con- fronted unexpectedly and suddenly with the dilemma of getting married within q. few hours or losing a vast fortune. His adventures among the girls seeking to fulfill this part of the requirement 10 attain the fortune are unique and uproariously funny at times. Added to the fun of the play itself are the attractions of the stellar fUn-makers, the beauty chorus and the costuest production ever made by this enterpr1sing firm of Selwyn and Company.
