Rexall eleven to a z to tie, Sunday

Although the struggle was hard
fought throughout, it was one of the
cleanest played games witnessed in
the park league this season.
A fumbled punt recovered by the
Recalls followed by long forward
pass brought the ball to the one yard
line from which position Gray took
the ball over for touchdown, the

recovered by Louis Tattleman on the
Recalls two yard line from where
"Billy" Steinman carried the oval
across after which Jerry" Green
berg added the necessary point need
ed to tie the score by kicking per-
feet goal.
One Of the outstanding features Of
the game was the strong comeback OF
the Talmud Torah eleven. The de-
fensive work of Captain Cohn, Glot-
ter, Rivkin, Gross and Tattleman
should not pass unmentioned as well
as the offensive work Of Greenberg,
Steinman, Segal and Shapiro.

Cohn and Glotter ends, Rivkin and

An Ambitious Pair Share
Featured Roles in 'Sonya'

Violet Heming. the heroine of

on the stage in grand opera. But
for all that she is not a singer. The
resonance of her clear voice has
been used only in speaking.
Yes" said Miss Heming. recently
lingering a little beribboned diary,
written when she was S years
old, my first part on the stage was
in The Bohemian Girl My father
ran the theater in Southport at the
time. And someone was needed to
fill the role of the little girl who sits
on the kings lap. So the manager
of the Names Opera Company came
to my father and asked if he would
not assign me to the role. My father
consented.
"Of course. l did not know who
the little girl was or why she should
sit on his lap. But l do remember
that 1 was only I years old and
that felt at last l had become what
l had wanted to be in all the years
of my long life-an actress.
And l had a curious repetition of
that feeling when l started rehear-
sales on 'Sonya.' 1t is a glorious part
to play. All ones idealism. one $
emotion, and ones love can go into
it. l am sorry that l wasn't SOnya
very long ago. One can play it
again and again and always find
something new in it. For Sonya is
a real person and not a stage
character"

Miss Heming in "Sonya," rose from

next week saw him promoted to
stage managership at SIS Since his
first appearance on the stage with
Stella Mayhem, in "On the Swanee
River as LEADING man, he has all
ways had the leading male role in
the plays in which he has appeared.
In "Sonya" which has been adapt
ed from the Polish of Gabryela "a

prince of an Eastern European en-

seemingly adamant barriers set up
by his courtiers. He bursts through
these to win the great love OF the
