Points to 64h by Seniors and Sophie
mOrcs-COld Wind Handicap.
An excellent early spring track meet
of the Brattleboro high school was held
at the Valley fair grounds yesterday
men, the odd-year classes, won from the
seniors and sOphomores. the Evens, 81 y
to 6415. Eugene Moran, junior, with a
total of 3715 points, was the high indi-
vidual point winner, thereby winning the
silver cup offered by his father, Postmas-
ter NJ. J. Moran, in memory of the lat
ter's son, Edward B. Moran.
Fred Robbins, senior, was second with
33 points, amassing three first places
and six second places. Moran had six
firsts to his credit, one second, one third
and one tie for second and third.
The track was in fine condition, but
the cold wind was a handicap and no rec
ords were broken. Altogether the team
showed great promise, and should develop
into a real aggregation of stars.
The hundred was made in excellent
time. Moran leading Robbins to the tape

the next two places were even closer as
the field of sprinters was well punched.
Harlow. a new conner, showed ability
in the distances, winning both the half and
the mile handily. Both races were slow,
but this was due partly to lack of any
real competition for the winner.
Robbins made a fine heave of slightly
over 10 feet to win the shot, his put be
ing a foot better than the mark made in
the class meet last wear.
Lindsey took the last race of the day,
the quarter, in "a blanket finish, with
Harlow threatening all the way. The

kElTH,S NEW ThEATER

From Cleveland comes the news that
the Keith Palace theater is the most
complete and perfect playhouse in the
world.
It was q distinct regret to your re-
porter that Broadway kept him 50
busy he could not be present at the
dedication last Monday. But profess
sional friends whose judgment we i'm
plicitly trust. say that it is truly worthy
to be dedicated-as it has been at EFF.
Albee's direction-to the memory Of
B. T. Keith. the founder of the Keith
circuit. Distinguished men and women
from all over the United States jour
neyed to Cleveland to be among what
has been described as the most distin-
guished audience ever gathered to dedi-
cate any place of amusement.
The consensus of opinion is that be-
cause Of it's dignified auditorium, its
remarkable completeness back of the
curtain. because it contains the largest
rug eve made and because in it are
gathered art treasures of every kind
and a notable gallery of paintings by
masters. this 5 5000. 900 Cleveland
vaudeville theater is the most beautiful
and the most remarkable p~layhouses
ever built.

LITTLE NELLIE KELLY"

Little Nellie Kelly" played and sung
and danced at the Liberty theater by
George NJ. Cohan's Comedians, is a
nice little musical affair. 1t is all
Cohan-despite the credit line to Julian
Mitchell-from the words and the music
all the way down to the last dance step
of the least little chorus girl.
Now, Elizabeth Hines. who PLAYS
little Nellie Kelly, is very beautiful
and very graceful, but she is neither
little nor Nellie nor Kelly. Charles
King, who strolls into Nellie's life as
Jerry Conroy from the Bronx, is ex-
~cellent. He sings delightfully."-, dances
well and is the best actor In the lot.
But the Lorraine Sisters-they are
surprisingly good special dancers-steal
much Of the thunder. Joseph Niemey-
er and Aileen Hamilton, Cunningham
and Clements, Carl Hemmer, James
and Mercer Templeton-these are the
names of the good special dancers with
whom George Conan has wisely sprink-
led his show.
The book is way ahead of the aver
age musical comedy. the music is
charming, the lyrics are delightful.
Here, indeed, is another Conan show
which owes everything to the redoubt-

n ROMANTIC AGE"

From the serious. the extraordin-
airy, we turn to the realm of whimsy-
that land so charmingly portrayed by
Barrie and A. A. Milne. Dur latest in
PRODUCTION is through The Romantic
Age which a new producing firm
that of Hugh Ford and Frederick Stan
hope-presents at the Comedy theater.
THE Romantic Age is a delicious
bit of nonsense. Some may find cause
10 regret that it is so whimsical, for it
might we'll have been more solid fact.
And had it been more fact, it would
have been more impressive. But if
you wish an evening or an afternoon
of laughter over those things which
once were so beautiful and SO real in
your W romantic years. go to see
The Romantic Age" and revel in that
MISUNDERSTANDING second act.
The story is very simple. A girl
beautiful Margalo Gilmore plays her
very we'll indeed-shudders away from
the estimable young man her mother
wishes her to wed. She shudders SO
Economically, so eagerly longing for the
wondrous days of old when fair captive
maidens leaned from towers windows
to throw a love gage to knights in gor-
geous costumes. that, well--
When a young man runs out of gaso-
line on his way to a fancy dress ball
and wanders into the hall where lives
this romantic girl, she mistakes him
in the moonlight for her dream come
true. Even meeting him in q beautiful
bit of ~woodland-by the way, this is
one of the best woods bits your re-
porters have ever seen On the stage
she does not wake up" She permits
him to kiss her hands and even touch
her lips. he plays the game of romance
and of love so deftly and SO sweetly.
You see, he did not go to that ball,
after all. He wandered all night long
afoot in the woods, dreasni ing of her.
But the formal meeting with him at
tea in her own home nearly ruins
everything. For now he is dressed in
the way all other men she knows dress,
4 and-horrorsi-he is q stock broker.
the identical profession of the estimable
youth her mother wished her to wed.
Still. happiness reigns as it must in the
fairyland of Milne, at last. and the
curtain comes down on the scene which
never fails of its appeal-that final
clinch and kiss about which movie
directors yell so loudly.
Leslie Howard plays. the romantic
youth beautifully. The girls mother,
and father are admirably done by Daisy
Belmore and Marsh Allen. A bit in
that fine second act is greatly played
by Paul Jaccia. And just when we
gave thanks in our hearts for that. in
stroll"d j. NJ. Kerrigan as a peddler
to eclipse the memory of the boy who
had just gone and make us really glad
we wandered through this ~fairyland
with him.
