fought basketball game full Of thrills,
exciting moments and all that 60 to
make a professional game what II i,
Woodsville won from the fast Clare
mont team on the local court Thurs
day evening last by the score Of Is tolls.
Woodsville came onto the floor with
the determination to win the game and
win they did. Setting pace that few
thought they could carry through the
three periods, they played Claremont
off their feet, annexing seven points 70
one for the opponents. The second Pc
riod saw Claremont stage comeback
and tied the score at IL all but the
third, there was no question. the vis-
itors never had chance. Missing many
shots for the baskets, smothcred by
the local guards. they had the ball a
small fraction OF the time with the re-
suit that when the final whistle blew
the score was as above.
In comparison of players Pat Carl
son stands above all in offensive work
scoring all but one of Woodsvilles
points from the floor. Richardson, the
tall lanky visiting center, never had
chance with Taylor playing him to
standstill while in the back field "Old
Bill carried the ball forward, time
after time, wrecking many plays. Kirk,
The other guard, played fast basket
ball and did great defensive work.
As said before, the game was hard
fought. rough in places, and feeling
run high yet the game was clean, very
few plays being made but what were
all excusable after the game was over.

II 1t appeared for 4 few moments that
the smile would be whisked out of sight
when Mr.. Lean presently popped out
disguised in arctics and n false beard,
but such heresy was not to be. His
emile burst right through his whiskers.

BY LAWRENCE REAMER.

THE Law Breaker" which W. a.
Brady introduced last night at the
Booth is by Jules Eckert Goodman, and
Is more or less of a mystery play: some
of it's mysteries are more inscrutabie
than others. A mere catalogue or It's
characters will suggest how easily the
most astute theater goer may be mis-
led. There is at once a conflict between
the young attorney who believes un-
compromisingly in the uninterrupted
course of the law and his betrothed who
thinks there should be exceptions to
hard and fast rules in dealing with the
delinquent. 1t is the innocent associS-
tion of her weak brother with the
polished crook of yesteryear, his loyal
girl and his treacherous pal in the
robbery of her fathers bank that leads
this young woman to such an interest
in the treatment of the evil doer
She believes that criminals may be
led back to the right path by awaken
ing in them a sense of personal response
bility. She goes so far as to put UP for
security her string OF pearls, bought for
$4,000, when the jewels brought much
less than they do to-day. They were q
pledge that the master crook would
bring back to the bank the $50 900 he
had so skillfully abstracted from the
sefe. He did bring back the money.
The pearls disappeared simultaneously.
He thought the heroine had surrounded
him by the police OF course the lights
went out at this juncture. You needn't
do that" cried the heroine to William
Courtenay.
But Mr. Courtenay has had n much
longer experience than Miss Blanche
Yurka in detective plays. He knew that
at the end Of the third act the lights
had to go out. When they were turned
on again his "moll" had been shot. But
he was allowed to take her home. In
the last act-there were four of them
the sociological theories of the heroine
were justified to a certain extent. Yet
she had net altogether proved her case
even IL the pearls had come home again.
Detective stories never lack for read
ers. perhaps detective plays find the
game wide audience. There are plenty
OF thrills in THE Law Breaker" for those
who react as the expression is. to the
tale Of the thief and his nemesis. IL is
possible to have Just as much fun at
the Booth as in the Doctors office read
ing a detective magazine, say OF about
three years ago.
Mr. Goodman knows how TO bring on
his crooks and w. A. Brady can make
them keep step in the old way. They
are perhaps more irresistible after all
when they do their old tricks in their
old ways. Mr.. Goodman keeps to the
detective style in more than his compi-
cations. lie is, in the matter, true TO
literary form.
Mr.. Courtenay is still the best OF the
gentlemen crooks. lie is suave aud
polished and so untrue to any life out
side a detective melodrama that he
would fool the wisest citizen. Annexing
the small sum of 100000 must have been

oine's pearl nacklace-why he could
have got up in the middle of the night
and done It very politely in his sleep.

N. Y. u. Students
Present 'Thank-U
at the Longacre
Performance by Amateurs
Wins Praise Of Producer
and Star of Comedy.

It's not often that an actor adm1res a
rival who makes big hit in the same
part in which he has been impressing
the public. Yet Harry Davenport, who
playes the role of the Rec. Darid Lee
in the comedy, "Thank-U," at the Long
acre Theater. not only liked the young
man who embodied his role but all the
students from New York University who
appeared in the dress rehearsal OF the
play on Sunday, and said so frankly
in telegram to John Golden. the pro-
ducer. In fact, Davenport became so
reused by this performance by under
graduates. intended to swell the univer-
sity endowment fund, that he asserted
in his message to the manager In Florida
that they were the best amateurs he
had ever seen, regardless of the con-
sequences.
And Golden must have caught the
message in transit or else sensed that
something unusual was going on, for
yesterday afternoon, at the height OF
the public performance, the producer
dropped in from Florida. That's SER
vice. He was led gently by the hand
to a stage box, while Joe Drum, the
publicity drummer, sat behind him to
cut off his escape until a speech had
been made at him.
A well turned curtain speech It was,
delivered by Robert Grow. %, as the

FRANK FAYS FABLES
AN ENERGETIC REVIEW
Comedian and Amusing As
r sociotcs Score.

I II Is an interesting fact that when
4 man produces a revue the chorus
thereof Is much more pulchritudinous
than il woman had produced the same
revue, and when the man happens to be
Frank Fay the result is a chorus which
Is unusually decorative Moreover. the
chorus which unfolded itself last night
pc the Park Theater in Frank Fay's
Fables appeared 60 be possessed of
more than the unusual amount OF lSinetic
Energy, which is always a highly es-
sential part of a revue.
! or course a revue Is not supposed TO
be vaudeville. but it is nevertheless. and
consequently Frank Fay was quite at
home in his fables and evening clothes.
The new show is we'll mixed up, so mixed
Up that not even Frank himself could
unscramble II for the benefit of the pro-
Gram, and the result was almost any
thing might have happened--in fact did
happen-without any previous warning.

slender tragedian. Herbert Corthe1l. but

may have been drifting around Column
