character in contrast to his Hamlet,
Shyloch and even his MaIuoito. Here is
q robust, domlneerins tyrant to all out
ward intent, but with smile on the
side at the measures he has taken to
tame his unwilling bride.
Miss Marlowe has boldly turned from
the traditional Katharine and makes her
shrew a polite. philosophic person who
finds persuasive powers In the pretence
Of proffering complete surrender. but.
like the Petruchio who winks at the
sport he is having, Is never really sub

Babe Ruth Makes
Goth Home Run in
Vaudeville Debut
Ball Player Welcomed With
Uproar by Large Audience
at the Palace.

Babe Ruth turned his baseball into
siapstick at the Palace yesterday after
noon when he made his Broadway debut
In vaudeville. heavily supported by a
cold. That shows the Babe has become
something OF a real artist, for regular
professionals specialize in colds. But
despite his indiaposition the husky home
run swatter managed TO make himself
heard, as might be expected OF one who
had made umpires listen TO him. His
voice was rather low pitched, but it
seemed capable OF clearing the fence.
When he first came on he had little
need for his vocal cords. for the crowd,
which jammed the theatre as 1t had
never been jammed before, whistled and
clapped and stormed in manner that
might make one think he had just won
the worlds series for the Yanks. You
might say that yesterday he scored his
sixtieth home run. For a couple of
minutes he tried to open his mouth and
be heard above the din, but he might
just as well have been a hsh cndeavor
inS to deliver an after dinner speech in
a tank.
The sight of his boyish open work
countenance. with its cherubic grin, as
ne entered in his baseball uniform. car
rying bat, a suitcase and a golf bag,
with his right hand still in bandages as
mark Of honor. seemed to capture the
audience instantly. Even under a load
of grease paint on his face he seemed
to be breaking out with pink healthy
glow. Then he got down to business in
his act, called That's Good" sdlfully
fashioned by Thomas ]. Gray to give the
great swatter an entertainment punch"
The Keith management had slrewdly
provided Ruth with an apt partner in
Wellington Cross. himself a headliner,
and he fed Ruth with fast verbal shots
SO well timed that the baseball player
was able TO smack out a hit. The pair
joked each other about their acting
ability. and Cross made several refer
ences to Babes friends" Judge Landis
and Magistrate House of the Traffic
Court. which not only drew a laugh
from the audience but tickled the player
himself.
Despite his heavy cold Ruth sang
Little by Little and Bit by Bit" with
good effect, so that not only the audi
ence but the Babe himself knew he was
singing.
Then the pair INDUCED in a bur-
! lesque on mind reading, with Ruth as
the Princess" This scored emphatically.
especially when Ruth tried to find the
man in the audience who had stuff on
! his hip
\ couple of weeks of preliminary
/ training on the vaudeville stage had
given Ruth stage presence. If he hadn't
acquired it already from daily facing
10000 bowling fans. lie made as en-
gagng an impression probably as any
bali player has ever achieved on the
! stage, and the spectators sent him to
| the bench" at the finish with a cheer
