CAST.

"The Romantic Young Lady" is a
mildly diverting comedy which. while
pleasing In itself scarcely contains
those elements of greatness which
the average playgoer is led to expect
from the association OF the Belasco-
Frohman names. The work of .
Spanish author. its action takes place
in Spain, but in the adaptation, the
Castilian atmosphere is a negligible
factor, and either London or New
York would have served equally well
It's story has to do with the yearn-
ing OF a young woman, Rosario. an
avid reader of popular romantic fic-
ton, to obtain more from life than is
found in her pampered existence In
the four walls of her home. Through
| a chance and unconventional meeting
with her favorite author, who by the
way Is quite unlike his own chapac-
ters, the way is opened to her great
romance.
All in all. there are only three
major characters in the play: Ro-
sario, the author and Rosarios aged
and much married grand dame, who
displays a surprising knowledge of
the grand passion" in all it's vari-
Gus phases. and in the hands OF
Marie Wainwright, that sterling ac-
tress of long ago, Is a most de-
lightful portrayed.
Unfortunately for Miss Hedman.
the role of Rosario gives but little
opportunity for the display of her
particular talents. though she han
cles that little to the best possible
advantage.
Francis Byrne. as Gomez. the au-
thor. known to his reader following
under the highly ornate pseudonyn

is delightful. Elise Bartlett, as
Catalina. de Cordobas stenographer,
spends but a few moments on the
stage. but In that short time managed
to give such a convincing realism to
her role as to bring forth a spontane-
Gus burst OF well-merited applause
Then. there's Ada Boshell, as Maria
Pepa. aged maid to the aged Dona
Barbarita- who is just as peppery as
an INDUCED family retainer often is.
and makes the character stand out
with vivid force.
The stage settings, OF which there
are only two. are truly Belascan in
their solidity and accuracy. Both are
interiors and both well done. A par
ticularly realistic thunderstorm in the
FIRST act likewise reflects the touch of
the "old master" OF stage portraiture.

Burch'S s Demeanor Is Changed As Alienist
 Talks of His Sanity
By Associated Press

Los Angeles, December 29.-Arthur C. Burch on trial for the alleged Eur der of J. Belton Kennedy, changed his demeanor so much today whilei alien ists were testifying about his mental condition that 1t was brought into the court record and a bailiff kept close to his side during most of the pro- ceedings.
 Drs. Charles Allen, Ernest B. Hoag and E. H. Williams, all Los Angeles specialists in mental disorders, testi- fled they believed the defendant was suffering from mental deterioration which took the form of egotism, flip pancy and conceit
 While these statements were being made, Burch, who had smiled almost continually during the previous ses- sions. grew attentive and grave, keeping his eyes on the doctors. bit ing his lips and swaying to and fro.
 This attitude was most marked when pr. Williams spoke of Burch as being "a little insignificant man, who apparently considers himself some thing great"
 Later District Attorney Woolwine asked Dr. Williams if he had mo- tieed how serious Bureh had become today"
 Yes replied the alienist. "and I think I know the reason. We have been trampling upon his ego.'

Tomorrow night at 12 o'clock Kid -twenty-two will knock Old Man Nineteen twenty -one out. And, prior to the new Kids Knocking the Veteran for goal, Jack Dempsey will insert his glove-covered duke into the anatomy and send Georges Carpenter, the flower of France, to the canvas at the Rfa1to theatre, where the Dempsey Carpenter fight pictures are being shown. Promoter W c. Rudolph. in charge of the film here. as a special emissary from Tex Rickard, official promoter of the act ual combat, and official producer of the fight films being shown here, has arranged this special show to take care of the merry-makers in the anxious hour, prior to the debut of 1922 into Birmin gham's midst.
 The special showing of the fight film. which was arranged at the eleventh hour, will start at the elev- enth hour. When the weeks sched- uled program for the fight film is brought to a close at Il o'clock, a special feature program will start at II and last until midnight.

 Rather than show a tendency to diminish as the weeks grind is near ing completion, the crowds have actually grown In volume. There is such a rush at the box office every day that Manager Rudolph would have been i1clined to hold the pie ture over 50 that more Birmingham people could have seen 1t but for the fact that he is booked to open in Mo- bile with the picture at the start of the new week.

He saw the careless young Deer finger longer than usual when the others moved on, and crept D wee bit nearer. He saw him bound away on the wrong path and he was tempted to follow him. But Light foot and Mrs. Lightfoot were still too near. He saw the young Deer come bounding back and take cross path in the wrong direction, only to discover his mistake and come bounding back again and fol- low the path to the place where many paths crossed. and there take one that led in quite the opposite direction from the way the others had gone.
 Then old Man Coyote grinned wickedly IS he dropped into the path below him and swiftly fol- lowed. This was what he had been waiting for. This was the reward for his patience. He knew that that young Deer was lost. Now was the time to get between him and the others and drive him further from them until he could get him cornered and drive him into the deep snow.
 Silently, swiftly, his nose holding the trail, Old Man Coyote followed the young Deer, every moment grow ing more sure of him. He erinne1 again as he saw how completely lost was that headstrong youngster. Things could not have turned out better for Old Man Coyote. It was all he could do to keep from yelping his joy. He felt that tBat dinner of young Deer was as good as his already.
