 BIG FAVORITE

A most enthusiastic audience gave Riccardo Stracciari a, warm recep- ton at Polls theatre yesterday where he appeared in an excellent program under Nthe auspices of the General Italian Committee. Stracciari, who is the leading baritone of the Chicago Grand Opera Company, lived up to the reputation s11Badd here oy this chief, Mary Garden, last Sunday.
 Stracciari has a full deep. reson- ant voice and sings with great inte1li- gence and feeling. The lovely aria .'Vision Fugitive" from Massenets Herodiade, was given with fine feel ing and sorority of tone. This was his opening number and the second group embraced "Mattinata," Tosti; 'Just as My Own,'' Perkins, and the ever-lovely La Paloma,'' Yradier. The. audience manifested it's great delight in his rendition of these songs. in no uncertain terms and the greg bari tone was not niggardly witsFhi en- cores.> A
 Stuart Ross was the accompanist of the afternoon and also was heard in solo work. He had a fine virile touch and his interpretations were
 marked by fine feeling and musician ship.
 The first part of the program was given to the singing of operat1c num- bers by Mrs. Rose Canterera, G. A. D'Auria, Miss Emilia Mueller, Luigi Mainiero and Paul Romito.

It was an excellent and gratifying program that the newly organized Bridgeport Symphony orchestra rem dered before an enthusiastic audience of music lovers at the High school auditorium yesterday afternoon. Not only did the orchestra itself attain new 1aurels in it's second public ap-s pearance, but Prof. John Adam Hugo. Bridgeporter who is destined to become even more famous from coast to coast than he is today, shared the stellar honors by virtue of his play ing as concert pianist and soloist
 Prof. Hugo was at his best, which is saying a great deal. He played with a warmth of expression that won him the plaud1ts of the large au- dience, who were exceedingly 1oath to have him discontinue. In assist ing this artist, the orchestra did some of it's best playing, the accompani- ments under the skilled direction of Conductor Giovanni E. Conterno. en- hancing the entrancing rendftions of the soloist.
 Prof. Hugo chose Mendelssohn' s Prelude in E Minor as his encore number and this, too, was enthusias- tically received.
 There were other features, too chief >,among which was the male chorus of 16 fine voices.
 All in all, the concert was a Sratl-s flying success, and all the more suc-i cessfu1 because of the fact that the Bridgep ort Symphony is as yet an infant organization. One would have imagined, after listening ito yester- days music, that the men had play ed together for years.

Hodge Podge
"SILENCE IS GOLDEN"

Did you ever stop to think why you like it quiet in a motion picture thea ter? How you growl if someone talks behind you; how irritated you get dialogue written on the finn?
 Pearl White, shining serial star, explained this very satisfactorily not very long ago. Said she: Ut is my opinion that the motion picture de- mands a steady creative effort on the part of the audience, a far greater effort than must be put forth to un derstand the spoken play. Each spectator must supply dialogue and color. To have audible words spoken around one causes disturbing cross current. Tt is plainly a study in psycho- logy," continued Pearl, "and it is al so an interesting commentary upon the movies stimulation to the imagination"

LYRIC.

There is a certain fascination about a story or play concerning the great outdoors and even people who care nothing for that sort of life take in- terest in reading about it or seeing 8 play unfolded. Just such a produc- ton is ''The Big Game" at the Lyric this week. Most of the scenes in "The Big Game" are laid in the Can andian Northwest where snow is of common occurrence and men make their own laws and abide by them CT suffer the consequences in sum mary manner.
 "The Big Game" tells a story of born New Englander who has been raised to look upon physical prowess as barbarian. He marries girl who has been reared among rough men and women who are quick to defend themselves and theirs. She finds her self sort of outcast among his people In the east and they find it necessary to go to her country. Here he finds that physical contact is necessary to protect her but it is some time before he Is awakened to the fact. When
 he finds that he is losing his wife his better self predominates and this forms the most exciting climax of the play.

 Synopsis.
 MT. and Mrs. Saltwater, rich Amer jeans, have raised their daughter, Indiana in lenient manner with the result that she is pampered and spoil ed. As their guests we find Lord Nelson Stafford, a nliddle-aged Eng Hsh nobleman, and his nephew Rt. Hon. Thurston Ralph Viscount Can hing, Glen Masters, an American and a lifelong suitor of Indiana, is also among the guests.
 Both Glen and Thurston propose to Indiana, and she finally accepts the latter, realizing that Glen will give her her own way too much for her own good. A condition of the be- trothal is that Thurston shall be firm with her.
 Indiana Gets to Work.
 Lord Thurston takes his bride to England and installs her in the family estate. Lady Canning, his mother, is of the severe conventional type of EngliShwomen, who has feared for her sons happiness as the husband of a wild woman. Indiana sets out to win the older woman's regard and esteem and falls in with Lady Canning's S Ideas of dress, custom and propriety, until she gives little semblance to her former care-free and spoiled self.
 From here on witness Indiana's metamoephosis. Her family visits her and insist upon her attendance at a public function which her husband refuses to sanction She goes. Thurs ton, firm in his resolve to punish Indiana, refuses to call for her and sends word that at twelve his doors will be locked to her. Both are stub born, until Indiana, weakening, abuses her family and goes home. The door is locked, but the family butler is her friend and admits her through the window.
 A ChaStened Indiana.
 The next morning, Thurston eis ready to accept commission to lead a Pole exploration and instructs In diana to accompany her own family. Indiana, chastened, agrees that her husband is right. The StiIlwaters and Mrs. Bunker further marvel at her change and leave to get the tickets for Paris.
 Indiana, however, relents. con- feSses her error, humb1es herself to her husband who forgives her. She telephones her father to cancel her passage, and leaves her family further puzzled at the transition in her na- tlJre.
