Parts of Three Works
She Wrote

Five one-act plays written by Miss
Billie Shaw were presented last night
at the Apollo Theater, with Miss Shaw
playing important parts in three of
them. The piaylets were "Gutta Icono-
clast," pearls" "The Good Woman"
"Squaring the Triangle" and "a Di-
vertisement." In "Gutta Iconoclast"
Miss Shaw played the lead as foolish
young wife about to leave her husband
because he couldn't remember after
five years of her telling h4m where his
dress shirts were kept, The play!et is
thin, but Hiss Shaw looked very nice
in butterfly negligee, which was we'll
suited to her blond prettiness. Olive
Oliver and Lionel Glenister supported
her.
pearls" is crook play with touches
of real melodrama. Averell Harris and
Fay Courteney played the man and the
girl. In "The Good Woman" Olive
Oliver talks with Her Conscience, Fay
Courteney, and Her Common Sense,
Billie Shaw, in manner reminiscent
Of "Everywoman." Not few of the lines
are aimed at reformers and anti-vice
crusaders.
"Squaring the Triangle" is a comedy
in which Fay Courteney, Lionel Glen

Ethel Barrymore a Model
In Dress i'm Palace Play
Star Is Splendid Argument
for Business Career for
Women

Ethel Barrymore, appearing at
Keith's Palace in Sir J. M. Barrie's
one-act play, "The Twelve Pound
Look" is splendid argument Tor the
business career for women as against
marriage with certain type of men,
the stereotyped Successful" man. TAX
ing cognizance of what may seem
superficial matter first, she is model
il. dress which it would suit any bust
ness women to initiate. Her clothes are
smart but feminine, with that striking
simplicity which is beyond the pocket
books of some working women. IN her
little box-coated, sand-colored suit,
matched with shoes and stockings and
a simple hat, her dark blue polka
dotted tie and hat scarf, and with her
hair parted on one side and done in
low, girlish fashion, Miss Barrymore
looked the way the modern woman who
earns her living should look-and SO
seldom does.
Miss Barrymore was supported by
Harry Plimmer as Sir Harry Sims;
Miss Ena Shannon as Lady Sims, and
James Kearney as Tombes. The recep-
tion of her name, her initial appearance
and curtain calls indicated the apprecia-
tion felt by a vaudeville audience that
one of the stars of another magnitude
should come within its range, if only
for a short time. Among the other
popular numbers with yesterdays
Palace audience was Jack joyce, billed
as "The Boy with the Smile" who does
some remarkable dancing with crutch.
Joyce is an English actor, who lost one
leg in the war. Yet he gives q credit
able performance, dancing and singing,
and one which is graceful and in good
taste.
Jack Donahue, in nonsense. mono
loguing and burlesque fancy dancing,
also took the popular fancy. William
Demarest and Estelle Collette do some
queer things to violin and cello, as we'll
as some regular playing. Royal Gas
coignes juggles knives and chairs. Ruth
Roye is appearing as a comedienne of
syncopation; w. Horlick and the
Sarampa Sisters present descriptive
dances. Mary and Marie Mcfarland
sing several opera pieces, and Harland
Dixon and the London Palace Girls
give an act of singing and dancing.
Frisco, "the creator of jazz" heads
the bill at the Riverside this week, with
Tempest and Sunshine sharing the
honors. Florence Moore Is one of the
attractions at Keith's Eighty-frst
street Theater. Nonette. the gypsy
violinist, is the star at the Fordham
At the Hamilton Max Teuber's "Shad-
owland" tops the bill, and Will Morris
sey's Comics are chief features of the
early bill at the Jefferson Theater,
where the policy of straight vaudeville,
with complete change of program on
Mondays and Thursdays, is newly in
augurated. At the Bushwick, in Brook
lyn, Karyi Norman, the Creole Fashion
Plate, is the topliner.

Park Department Gets
Naval War Buildings
Accepts Structures i'm Lieu of
Restoration Between Ft. Ham
ilton and Bay Ridge Ave.

The Committee on Finance and Bad
get of the Board OF Estimate received
letter from Park Commissioner John
N. Harman, of Brooklyn, yesterday,
saying. that the Navy Department had
offered to turn over to the Park De-
partment all structures now on the
Shore Road, between Bay Ridge Ave
rue and Fort Hamilton, which the navy
is about to vacate. Commissioner Har-
man explained this offer was made in
lieu of restoration of the park prop
crty which the navy was permitted to
use during the war.
.Aldermanic President F. H. La Guar
dia immediately wanted the barracks
and sub-structures turned into houses
for the summer Borough President
Riegelmann, of Brooklyn, said it would
be good suggestion if the barracks
had been kuilt to accommodate families,
but to try to establish families in the
barracks under the present arrange
ment would be disgraceful.
The Park Commissioner finally was
authorized to accept the offer of the
Navy Department, in lieu of rtstora-
ton of the propertv.

Winter Garden
Show Wins the
Punctuality Prize
sWhirl of New York Actually
Begins ON Time; This Is
Its Chief Claim to Mu-
steal Comedy Distinction
By Haywood Broun

"'The Whirl Of New York" the new
Winter Garden show, started exactly
at the time the Shuberts said it would.
This remains the chief point in it's
favor. 1t might be added, however,
that several of the incorporated
numbers from "The Belle of New
York" are pleasant. Nancy Gibbs did
we'll with "Follow On" and Rosie
Green and Joe Keno put good deal
of snap into "The Belle of New York"
In fact, almost all the choral numbers
were spirited, and Dorothy Ward,
lately violently miscast in the musical
showed that she has no little ability
as prima donna of the energetic school,
She put much more of her back and
shoulders into the task of lifting a
song than the Rath Brothers required
a little later for all their acrobatic
feats.
Still, there was excuse for her hard
work At such times as she was on the
stage she kept the show up and it re-
quired good deal of pushing and
hauling. There is fearful lot of it,
and practically all the book is heavy
and inert. Louis Mann in particular is
put forward in the most tiresome comic
interludes the season has known. We
don't know whether the fault lay chiefly
with the librettist or with Mr.. Mann,
but there is blame enough to go round.
The fundamental error lies with the
person who conceived the idea that
homicidal mania is one of the most
laughable afflictions of the human race.
The plot furnished hard going for al
most every one whom it enlisted.
At such times as it was forgotten in
favor of dancing the evening was
pleasant. In particular young woman
named Kyra did most amazing and
skillful dance Of the school in which
the arms are utilized as cobras or
vcnomous reptiles of one sort or an
other. This Is familiar business, to
be sure, but these arms did the snakes
much more justice than usual. Ade-
laide and Hughes also danced agree
ably, as did Frank and Raymond Pur-
celia. j. Harold Murray was pleas
ing hero and sang one or two numbers
in rousing fashion. The piece is hand
somely mounted.
In addition to announcing that no
one would be seated after the begin
ming Of the performance, the manage
ment made the stipulation that no one
should leave. The first performance
edged we'll along toward midnight, and
this last provision was somewhat diff
ficult Of enforcement. One or two
We're detected in the act Of going out,
but it is to be presumed that they
were equipped with letters Of excuse
signed by their parents or guardians.

was declared here to-day by DR.. John
J. Tigert, United States Commissioners
Of Educstion, as part of the policy Of
the bureau of which he is che newly
appointed head. A campaign for the
furtherance Of "visual education"
through motion pictures also will be
undertaken at once, DR.. Tigert said.
DR.. Tigert made his pronouncement
as part of an address at luncheon
given in his honor by civic clubs and
the Lexington Board of Commerce. He
came here for 8 short visit to his home
and to conclude the work of the De-
partment of Psychology at the Univer-
sity of Kentucky. of which he was head
until his appointment by President
Harding as head of the Bureau of Edu-
cation.
The first move in the fight on COM
munistic ideas, DR.. Tigert stated, will
be to send prominent speakers through
out the United States to deliver ad-
dresses on Americanism. The subject
also will be stressed in the efforts of
the bureau in the schools and through
every medium under its control. A
series of ten lectures on Americanism,
written by DR.. Newell Dwight Hills,
pastor of Plymouth Church, New York,
will be given wide distribution.
Dr.. Tigert showed to the attendants
at the luncheon here to-day new
translucent motion picture screen in

number OF other men working together,
by means of which motion pictures can
be shown without darkening room.

my purpose is the same as il wa,

But there will remain the satisfaction

Dr. Downing said in reply that hs
believed DR.. Tivnan had taken the
proper course in connection with medi.
cal education. He added:
From now on there must be an IN.
tiring struggle against the debasing Of
educational standards, not only pro
fessional, but academic as we'll. It
would seem as though Moloch was
raging rampant through educational
circles, and your letter Is comforting
in showing that there is some ore who
is in accord with the position am
