OVATION At GARR|CK
FOR TWO NEW STARS
Lee Smith and Herman Cripps
Given Royal Welcome Last
EVENING.

vivacious Lee Smith has returned
to Wilmington ana 10 the star In East
10 West" the offering OF the Whining
ton Players at the Garrick Theatre
for this week. She has lost none OF
her charm during her absence. and IL
1t has benefited her greatly.
The part a Wing Toy 10 eminently
suited for Miss Smith and II was. In
deed, a wise move in recalling her to
Wilmington. She imparts an undehn-
able touch to the role which balances
Il nicely and adds greatly to the sue
cess Of the play. 1t would be hard
T.. md any fault with her interpreta-
ton OF WING Toy ana she In deserving
of much 'credit for the natural and
unforced manner in which she played
the part. Her first appearance in the
love boa, scene in the first act stopped
the show for a few minutes 80 great
was the applause 0f the audience.
Herman Cripps who also returned
with Miss Smith received much ap-
plause. As Billy Berison he was ad-
mirable. He also played his part In
an easy and natural manner. Added
tt tnlS asset ne PioNcu hHASSh 'sf"''N
os much depth OF feeling In the Few
poignant moments OF the play.
Herbert Trietel does some splendid
emotional work in tho last act and
handled his part throughout the show
In a creditabie manner. David Calls
as Charley Yang was good as were Ber
Hadfield and Rose Hubner. Frances
wrixley a. Mildred, the fiancee o'
Jimmy Potter. a. played by Ben Had
field, was admirable. Charles II
Stevens and Rose Hubner are also
worthy OF mention.
There is a good bit OF what ont
might call sugar coated" philosoph.
In East is West" and the play is vel
written. There is a big question tha
is discussed in the play which con
Germs the mlngling OF races. So strons
is the argument against this question
that for a time IT looks hopeless fo'
Wing Toy. But the last act proves
that she is not Chinese after all ant
the play ends happily. But the ques
ton remains unanswered.

Mike Cassidy here last night. Direc-
tor Cassidy arrived here yesterday on
Il periodical tour OF the state to in
spect conditions under the Jurisdiction
of his department and will remain
through the day.
Eventually the prohibition forces
get all violators," asserted the direc-
tor. land while man may be able to
violate the Volstead act for a while,
il Is foolish for him to think he can
continue TO do it for long without be-
ing caught.
Public sentiment is rapidly swing
ing to the other side of the balance
and getting behind the prohibition
forces and we expect that il will con-
tinue to do so. Furthermore, this fact
has been since the first OF the year
an important factor In the success Of
I the enforcement
/ Cassidy again stressed the fact that
; the prohibition forces are first of all
! after the large violatOrs, the men who
/ either manufacture or retail the liquor
and that the small consumer is getting

Get one bOotlegger who sells or

( the supply is cut off for from % to

( logical method for shutting off the
traffic and besides being effective it
gains the support of the public in gen
eral rather than antagOnizing it. AL
though we are overlooking no class
/ of violation we are devoting our
strongest attention to the big viola
tor"
Cassidy asserted that by the tao
tics and energy of prohibition forces
since January l considerable panic
has been created in the ranks of the
prohibition violators. Nineteen raids
in Maricopa county in the last two
weeks with the result of finding stills
recently abandoned were cited by the
| director as ample proof of the fact
that the bootleggers are rapidly going
Iut of business.
AS another example of the public
Import being devoted to the prohibit
ion movement, Cassidy announced
hat the Phoenix Country Club has
within the past few days adopted q
esolution opposed to and prohibiting
