 There is a. laugh in every line and thrill or tear in every five in ''Turn to the Right. the uproariously successful comedy with which the Lyric Stock Company has launched its new season. Nothing like it has been seen in Bridgeport. Not only IS II a great pldy, put IL ShoWS di oA the new players at their best
 Turn to the Right wins because it aboupds in sentiment, in honest "heart interest, because it's lines are witty, it's situations humorous, its Il story winsome and because it's a swiftIy-moving comedy-drama with out a single letup from the moment the curtain rises.
 The play opens in a pawnshop 1T, the shadow of Sing Sing prison, and the action is transferred to a farm owned by the golden-hearted mother. She reforms two amusing crooks, but not before they have knocked the village skinflint for the proverbiel goal
 Another great play will succeed this ipopular offering. It is f'Buddies,' the melody drama written about the "doughboys," and there's many a veteran and his wife or sweetheart who will make a point of seeing this mirthful and musical success. PARK.
