in the second half and came within
two points OF the Hatchetites only

steam and come through with an
eight-point victory. winding UP the
battle with something to spare in a

But it would seem that Mr.. Ziegfeld

pulchritudinous peaches. Those who
have seen his latest Nine O'clock and

New York last week, were amazed al

were new to Broadway and yet trained

Despite the fact that the zieyfeld

vest a new crop.
