LYRIC.

Although the attendance on Sun day evening was more than gratifying it was as nothing compared to~the crowds which saw the three per formances yesterday. The big dou- ble feature bill presenting two of the greatest stars of filIndom. Norma Tal r1ladge and Charles Ray at the Lyric th eatre this week, is scoring unpre- cedented success and bids fair to break all records for attendance.
 Norma Talmadge in the big sue cess, The Passion Flower" is really at her best in the character of Acacia" Although she hates her step-father it Is later shown that it is really a great love that is over shadowed by hate. but in the end she gains the man she really loves.
 Charles Ray was never seen to bet ters advantage than in Peaceful VaiIhy,' which gives him all the chances he could wish for in the role of a country boy There is a deep laid plot in connection with the produc ton which holds the attention of every auditor frodr m ginning to end. Rays dog 'WhislzeTs'' also takes a prominent part in the play and fur nishes much of the comedy.
 The three performances daily will be continued throughout the week, tho first at 2:15. and the others at 6:15 and S-f5- The prices remain the same. Next week another mammoth success will be presented. Inside the Cup" the Cosmopolitan production taken from the famous novel by Win ston Churchill, which aroused so much comment when published.

and was an apt pupil in school there and in a convent where she studied hard. She went on the stage very young (she is only 21 now) and there she received the only real schooling for pictures. She created the title role in "Oh. Boy,' when, after rehearSals, someone shouted as he saw her come on the sta ge, ''Oh. Boyn The management capitalized the name and it was one of it's sea sons most notable successes.
 Her first appearance on the stage was with "Chin Chin,' from whose chorus she was at once picked for excellent parts in musical comedy. It was when she was one of the famous group of Ziegfeld beauties that artists acclaimed her as one of the most beautiful women of the staga. It was here she attracted the attentio which later led to her being chosen for the screen and thence stardom and universal popularity.

POyi Letter

Dear Henry:
 to kiss a donkey if this isn't the best bill this week at Polls. since Bridge port was a pump. And the best thing about this bill is Gilfoyle and Lapge. they win in a ga1lop. For pure u1n- adulterated fun and witty cracks they cannot be beaten, and I know that is what you like There's also some beauty in it too. Hen, Gilfoyle sure is some pleasant to look at, and l know that you will agree that they are easy the best in the whole show. They are worth the trip Hen, so miss Next comes The F'ifers," a master dancing trio that will show you some steps that you would never see around a village store in winter The period dances as interpreted by this three. one is some sweet girl, and two young fellows that sure can handle thelr feet. bare or booted, are above crlti- cism. Also worth the trip to town, Hen.
 Dinkin and Barr pulled some old time comedy over, in rather good shape. but all in all there's some laughs. and that's what we go to vaudeville for.
 Vivian Martin in the Song of the Soup was too emotional for us, Hen. Vivian is sure some locker" Hen. and all that. but. old man. emotion was too much for us, guess it's a sign that we are getting old or something, but if you are romantic in the spring time. go see it.
 The old favorite Pathe News was fine as usual, with an added attraC- tion, of close-ups of some movie cele- briteS.
 There was more, Hen. but I'll wait till you take a look at them and then you can see for yourself
 Yours for a full cellar,

Forward Passes of Scrubs
Gain Substantially.

Special Despatch to THE NEW York HEzALp-
ANNAPOLIS, Nd, Nov. 16.-Something
went wrong with the defence OF the
Naval Academy team this afternoon and
the second team back i1nifed through II
again and again, while the forward pass
was worked for a number of substantial
gains. Never before during the season
has the Navy team been so overrun in
practice. and only Penn State made such
telling gains against il In match. .,
IL was the intention of Coach Folwell
TO devote most OF the scrimuage to de-
fensiyo practice, and II is certain that
the period succeeded in finding some
weak spots In the Navy defence.
Devons. tall second team back, was
the most consistent gamer. some of his
dashes through the line being for as
much as twenty yards, while Soucek
made some shorter gains and succeeded
in getting the bah to Ballenger at least
three times for substantial gains.
Taking the bail on their own ten yard
line the second team carried II to the
first teams ten yard line in their first
drive. Losing the ball, Barchet's run Of
fifty yards put the ball I'm second team
territory again, but upon recovering It
they drove back to the varsity's ten yard
line again. The work OF the second team
caused general surprise and steps will be
taken at once to correct the varsity de-
fence.
