sTbe G0Iem.o

1t is difficult TO imagine a better
selection of a photoplay to begin the
new season of 1929 than The
Golem," the astounding screen offer
ing that has already taken Man
haitian by storm and which promises
to hang up a new popularity record
before II completes its Broadway
engagement. The Golem," how
ever, was the offering that Loew's
Columbia selected to open its sea-
son yesterday afternoon and after
vfewing the first washington show
ings, one does not have great diff
ficulty in believing the statement
of the Columbia management that
that theater is preparing to spring
a group of altogether unusual screen
selections during the coming sea-
son.
THE Golem" was presented in
Washington. yesterday at a time
when the same picture begins the
twelfth consecutive week Of its
New York engagement. 1t is liter
ally a Titan of the screen and the
characterization Of the legendary
Golem, drawn from an ancient Bo-
hemian folk-tale, is easily one of
the most astounding cinema crea-
tions that the silver sheet has yet
revealed.
The Golem" takes its title from
q legendary figure Of clay that was
erected by an early Jewish rabbi of
the Thirteenth century at a time
when his people, segregated in the
Ghetto Of the city Of Prague, were
about to sustain the bloodthirsty at
tack of an ancient emperor. The
rabbi, in great fear for his people,
exercised an esoteric art of which
he was master and by inserting a
mystic formula in a star worn on
the breast Of the clay figure Of
the solem he brought to life a
beneficient giant who came to the
rescue of the stricken people.
The screen production brings out
the story of how the. emperor,
frightened by the hostility Of the
giant and impressed by the super
natural vitality of the clay figure.
gave assurances of his
desire to protect the people -of the
Ghetto and the rabbi. knowing the
nature of the Golem

to destroy the figure,
The Golesn, however, frustrated his

GAYETY.
0Cuddle.UD.c

It's a Jean Bedini production, this
"Cuddle Up" affair that opened the
'21-22 burlesque season with a bang
at the Gayety Theater yesterday.
"Cuddle Up" is typical Bedini pre-
sentation. lavishly gowned and
staged, with features and novelties
galore and a galaxy of talent that
has always been evidenced by Mr..
Bedinfs products.
The piece itself Is a whirlwind
succession Of songs. dances, comedy
and then more music and songs.
Needless to say, II pleased everyone
who attended the performance.
Among the most notable burlesque
principals who are in the cast are
George z. Snyder and Dan Sherman.
a pair of fast and successful laugh
producers: Yvette Quinn, Tess Sher-
man ana -Mable DeForrest, ingenue.
sonbrette and prima donna, respec-
lively; and Eddie Marks and Nat
Moran. the latter being remembered
last night by his scores of friends
made by his work last season. The
williams Brothers are the speciality
dancing team.
A blackface comedian, Ted Heaiey
by name-so the manager Informed
us-is one OF the brightest fights
Of the whole show. although he
works only about fifteen minutes.
Healey has, style of working
that is like that used by a couple
of nationally famous >blackface
comedians. and although some of
his material IL time worn, he Ger.
tainly. has the ability and pep to
put his numbers over. He didn't ex-
| actly stop the show last night but
he made 1t difficult for Miss Sher-
man to sing the number following
| his act. Another good thing about
this fellow Healey was that he
didn't hurt his offerings by taking
continued bows. This blackface
artist won't be with burlesque long
If his work last night symbolizes
his daily work. Well see him
| again.
The chorus, too, is typical of a
Bedini show, elegantly gowned and
well trained in their dance numbers
| Burlesque at the Ninth street house
certainly got away to a good start
! this year and from present indica- =
tions 1t probably will remain the
same. II. r. K.

CAPITOL.
ASoeiaI FOllieR.c

The good ship Capitol breeZed
forth upon its 192f-22 tour Of bur-
leque amusement yesterday after
noon with Jack Garrison again at
the wheel and a merry crew OF
mirth provokers which travel under
the alias of the Social Follies.
After a burlesque-less summer,
the "Follies" were apparently well
come to the spectators who half
filled the theater, and considering
that this was the first public per-
formance after a couple Of weeks
rehearsing, the crew was exception
ally good. Harry Stratton and Carl
Bowers, the former, a conveyor Of
Hebrew wit, and the latter doing
Dutch" are responsible for most
of the comedy, but John Quigg. in
blackface, probably scored the big
Sest hit of the afternoon-and he
didn't work half as hard as the other
two comics. Quigg Is an accom-
plished musician and he plays his
instruments to the hearty enjoy
ment of everyone. Stratton and
Bowers, however, do very we'll with
their parts.
Nettie Knise leads the contingent
of feminine principals and closely
behind her trail follow. Lovey
Mary Greene and Babe Warrington.
They capably assist the comics in
the many comedy situations.
Ralph Rea 10 the Juvenile and he
is greatly responsible for the sue
cess Of the show. Quigg's musical
numbers and personality are the
reasons that he scored such a hit
and the auditors showed more in
terest during his numbers than al
of the others.
The chorus looks we'll and is GER
tainly outfitted with some gorgeous
gowns. and even il they missed a few
dance steps yesterday during their
numbers, they'll probably measure
up to the best of 'em before the
week is out.
