Smith and Mr.. Duffy indicates
that not only will the Capitol he
the home of legitimate attraC-

but that it will also be the cen

1t is the plan of these two pro.

producers the actual manuscript of
plays now current on Broadway,
such as "Abie's Irish Rose" The
Cat and the Canary" and other
plays of that type, and to produce

" HE melodrama on which the
fathers of the present gen.
GRAFTON used to feed has
been crowded out by the motion
pictures, and the public which
goes to. the theaters nowadays
wants either "a fighter or much
more tragic form Of entertain
ment.
Eddie Shubert, the comedian
of THE Flashlights of 1928" at
the Gayety this week. is author
ity for the statement.
And Shubert ought to know,
being one of the men in the
theatrical business who have
given much time and study to
the production of melodrama.
Shubert's principal claim to
fame in the theatrical profession
comes from the fact that he is
a native son of New York.
There are very few of the the
ater's chosen who can boast of
New York as a birthplace, and
exceedingly few who can claim
it as the place where they grew
to manhood. That, however, is
Shuberts claim. which he de.
clares he can prove.
He started out as a youngster
to be horse trainer. Years ago,
when Ivy City was an important
dot on the racing map, Shubert
was an exercise boy with the
horses at that place.
Ivy City has practically dis
appeared now, and there are only
a few washingtohians who can
remember when it was the head
quarters of the National Capitals
racing fraternity.
From the race tracks Shubert
went into the theater and ac-
quired an interest in melodrama.
and thence moved into the bur.
lesque field, where he asserts he
has become a permanent fixture.

were shot in New York city. The

Of the scenes are laid in Palm
