Variety and Excellence
Mark Vaudeville Bill.

For variety and general excellence
the current weeks bill is one of the
best two-a-day offerings booked in
some time.
Elizabeth Brice and the "Overseas
Revue" have the stellar position. and
while the tabloid musical comedy has
been seen before. Will Morrisey keeps
1t thorouhly up to date in dialogue by
some snappy asides, pointed and
apropos. Miss Brice carries the vocal
honors and a lively chorus enters en-
Enthusiastically into the action.
Percy Bronson and Winnie Baldwin
deserve more than ordinary mention
for new act that demonstrates the
value of fresh material. 1t Is called

satire on the continued advance Of

sketch with clean and original COM

the talented couple.
Walter Brewer is a monologist new

Sothern's Interpretation. The audience
Is moved alternately by feelings OF
ridicule and pathos toward this fgure
introduced into the play by Shakes
peare for the double purpose or pro-
viding relief from the all-peryading
comedy and as aiconnecting link for
the two plots.
Miss Alma Kruger as olivia, Fred
erlck Lewis az orsino, and Henry
stanford as Sebastian, contributed
notably to the excellence OF the play.
Rowland Blackstone as Sir Toby
Belch; j. Sayre Crawley as Sir An
drew Agnecheek: Miss Lenore Chip
pendale as Maria, and Vernon Kelso
as Feste are the central hsures OF
the secondary plot. that against NAL
volio, which provides the main com
edy element.
The Sir Toby OF Mr.. Blackstone was
a thing to delight the student OF
Shakespeare. He was the incarnation
of mischief, every word and gesture
being the signal for outbursts of
laughter He was inimitable In the
scene where he terriies Sir Andrew
and Viola into a duel.
The stage settings were at all
times in keeping with the high level
of excellence OF the play. Heavy
contrasting draperies provided back
grounds for most OF the scenes
afrording opportunities for quick
changes. They were a welcome
relief from paint and canvas. Details
OF costuming were worked out care
fully with an eye to contrast with the
background OF draperies. the whole
effect being that OF a mural decora-
ton.

Miss Marlowe and Mr.. Sothern were
given an enthusiastic welcome by the
capacity audience which greeted these
opponents OF the Shakespearean
drama 1t was both a genuine tribute
to the high esteem in which the two
stars are held in Washington. and an
audible thank sgiving for their return
to the stage after a long retirement.
Twelfth Night" as are many other
of Shakespeare's plays, is largely a
woman's play, so Miss Marlowe's was
the most important role. To the de-
lights OF a matchless personality and
musical voice that lulls and soothes
by it's very sweetness are added that
certainty OF each move and gesture
which are fruits OF mature judgment
and exceptional scholarly attainment.

CHICAGO, H.. Feb. 2O.-That Perish
ng will carry the Chicago convention
m about the twelfth ballot was the
prediction made here today by w. j.
Darlington, prominent business man
md Republican leader Of Oklahoma
lily.
Mr.. Darlington said that the McGraw-
Hamon contest for the national COM
nltteeman from Oklahoma, in which
McGraw sought instructions for Cen
eral Wood and HamOn for Lowden
.nded so disastrOusly for McGraw that
le withdrew from the race, leaving
hamon forces In a position where they
will very probably be defeated by a
;hird man.
They had matters fixed for General
Wood" said Mr.. Darlington, "and then
q combination Of bad plays on the part
OF the Wood leaders smashed these
plans. The Lowden forces then had an
opportunity 10 capture the delegation.
but they played the game a little too
leisurely. Both candidates seem to have
lost their chance. General Pershing
will probably have the delegation fin
ally"
Commenting on the possibilities OF

In Chicago, Mr.. Darlington said
Throughout the country everyone fig
lres that II the Republican convention

ildate on the first seven or eight ballots
and someone should mention Pershing's

My own idea is that no one Is going
