What is adventure? The dictionary defines it as a hazardous or exciting experience. Bryan Washburn at the Alcazar theatre. for the rest of this week, in The Road to London" dem onstrates, in his best comedy style, one way of having real adventure, trimmed with all the frills of hazard, excitement. daring and romance.

A very at- tractive girl she was, too. and & mem Der of the British nobility. making the offense that much worsei He kidnapped her because she was being forced to marry g. man she didn't love.
 And you couldn't blame the poor girl. for he had a secondhand face, even if he was viscount. Her face was the only one of its kind in the world. It made our hero think of twin lakes of blue. of the sky at dawn, of wild roses. of--of-well, anyway, he kidnapped her and, after playing tag with his pursuers all over the highways of London and the bys ways of the suburbs. he decided to turn 1t into an elopement.

ADJUSTMENTS BY EsTEIJ E nETHEA HALE
FRITZ LEIBER HERE THREE
 NIGHTS AND MATINEE

Fritz Leiber Is remarkable among Shakespearean players as lacking ut terly that pompousness. that beating of breast and tearing of hair that many of the others have had. This great artist of Shakespearean drama takes the attitude that even Shake. speare's characters were human be- 1ngs, just as those about us today, and he requires his whole cast to adopt this same point ofvview. The outcome of this Idea is that the Leiber plays are many times more appealing than others before them, as humanity is ever kin and virtual, ly the same always.
 For his lectures before the New York board of education, Bolant Holt, one of the directors of the New York Drama league, paid flattering attention Do the performance of Frita Leiber fin Macbeth, choosing it as one of the eight best performances of the New York season. In his short road tour before hts runs in New York and Chicago this season, Mir. Leibef will use this drama for his opening performance.
 The repertoire for the local en- gagement which begins at the Jeffer- son theatre on Thursday. October ls. will be as follows: On Thursday night. Hamlet" Friday night. "Mer- chant of venice;" Saturday matinee Romeo and Juliet" and Saturday night, Macbeth"
