FRITZ LEIBER IMPASSIONED
AND IMPRESSIVE AS ROMEO
Youthful Audience Fills Big Lexington Theater to See
Shakespearian Actor in Love Tragedy

He does not, unluckily. always attain
the heights that are possible to him.
After scene of elevated and lofty emo
tional utterance he is not unlikely to
drop into a slovenly and murmured
speech that it would be fiattering to call
colloquial. 1t may be the effort to avoid
artifciality that causes these sudden
changes In his style of delivery. They
are none the less disturbing for that
reason.
Mr.. Leiber possesses one great ad-
vantage over some of his colleagues in
the Shakespearian repertoire to-day. He
Is an actor. He is not a mere reader.
He sets out to play the hero of this love
tragedy as living and human being.
He succeeds admirably. 1t Is a per-
formance of uncommon beauty and elo-
auence.
The general representation is COM
petent. Miss Virginia Bronson is not
likely to be seen often in the role of
Juliet. Her method of speech Is too
provincial for even the text of Shake
speare to ameliorate. Romeo and
Juliet" will be repeated tonight. "The
Tanning of the Shrew'' was played last
night. Julius Caesar" will be given on
Friday, and it was announced yesterday
that Richard I'LL" would be the bill on
Saturday night. THE Merchant Of
Venice" will be given at the matinee.

 the nation tonight were on the look out for William Dalton. 17-year-old,
 s65-a-month bank clerk, whose alleged
 theft of $772,00o worth of Liberty

 Trust company was made known by bank officials today.
 Dalton is believed to have secreted the bonds about his person when he went out to lunch yesterday. He had been sorting them in a cage and has not been seen since.
 The theft was the second in this dis trict recently in which youthful bank clerk figured, the other being in Ottawa, H., when 19-year-old clerk
 named Cary, who received $90 month,
 attempted to steal nearly $2o0.0oO, but was caught and the money recovered.
 This case started an attack by Senator Dial of South Carolina on Judge Kene-
