THE BOOMERANG"

II is said a splendid cast of play
ers has been gathered together in
The Boomerang." the Winchel
Smith and Victor Mapes comedy.
which Davis Belasco Will bring TO
the Oliver theater saturday, matt
nee and night.
1t is a we'll known fact that Mr.
BelascO never sends out duplicate
companies in Belasco successes. In
this one instance alone, this ia
nous producer sacrificed a fortune.
il is said, for The Boomerang" has
been acclaimed as the most en-
phatic comedy hit of the decade.
THE Boomerang is in three acts
and its fun is of the cleverest and
wittiest kind. 1t deals with the
foolish jealousy of a lovesick youth
in a manner that is said TO be ire
sistible For the first time, in a play
at least, a physician is called in TO
effect a cure for lovesickness. The
patient, Bu6d woodbridge, is the
victim OF a heartless coquette,
Grace Tyler. Budd has been wooing
her in the old, eloquent self-sacri-
icing manner and lcses weight IN
doing il. In fact, he il on the
verge Of complete nervous break
down when the physician takes i'm
the situation and gets Budd's mind
of the adOred one. IN Il months
time the physician agrees to show
results. Incidentally, the doctor
suddenly realizes that he himself
has fallen i'm love with the nurse,
and the amusing incidents which
follow give the comedy its title.
