Friday and Saturday. Saturday

tion Saturday Night" with a brilliant
cast including Leatrice Joy, Conrad
Nagle, Edith Roberts, Jack Mower,
Theodore Roberts, John Davidson.
The story contains all the crash of the
widest melodrama. All the poignant
heart tugs of lifes supreme adventure
of love. All the gorgeous color that
glows through every picture made by
Cecil B. De Mile, and more-for here
is story as novel as next years style
salon, yet throbbing with age old
primitive instincts that drive every
man and woman to their fate. The
story of an heiress who welded her
chauffer of a washerwoman's daugh-
ter who married a son of wealth-of
these four thrown together and facing
strange new world.
Monday and Tuesday-"The ROs-
ary"-"The Rosary" finds its key
note in the human traits of its char
acters and the simple charm of its
appeal. The unsullied life at Sandy

Widon Kathleen Milton, Bruce Wilton

Five Minutes From Broadway"
George M. Cohan's celebrated play in
which Charles Ray is now appearing
in a perturbation as a First National
attraction, is one of the most human
stories Mr.. Ray has ever produced.
1t takes its title from its locale, New
Rochelle, which is approximately
forty-five minutes from Broadway and
42nd Street, New York City. The
story of "Forty-Five Minutes From
Broadway" has to do with the adven-
lures of Kid Burns, an ex-prize fighter
from the East Side of New York City,
whose friend Tom Bennett suddenly
finds himself heir to fortune and an
estate in New Rochelle and sends for
the Kid to act as his advisor. Upon
reaching New Rochelle, the Kid en-
counters a series of adventures and

arguments in such an interesting and
forceful manner that it was soon
evident that the contest was a very
close one. The decision of the
judges was two for the affirmative
and one for the negative and found
hearty support by both sides.
The Berea team, composed Of Cur
It's Huff, Hugh o. Porter and Samuel

their Alma Mater. They are all
freshmen, and this was their first ap-
pearance on a college debate.
