More than ordinary interest is attached to football contest be- tween the scholastic elevens of Fairfield and Stratf1eld High schools which will be played on the Hurd avenue field. Stratford. tomorrow afternoon. This season both Fairfield and Stratford have the strongest teams in the history of the schools, and for the small registration of students in these High schools they have remarkably strong teams. Fairfield has beaten everything 1t has encountered this season and has only been scored on once, that by Norwa1k. whom Fairfield trounced S2 to 6. Stratford has also rared ex- ceedingly we'll, winning a big ma jority of its, games. Fairfield and season and Fairfield was the winner in close game.
 The game should sizzle with action as keen interest exists between the is anticipated. Captain Kish, half back. and Bob Sherwood, ha1fback, are two stars of the Fairfield combi- nation and the Stratford linemen will have to watch this duet closely, while Beden and Moore are Stratford's best bets.

MISS ADLER MAKES DEBUT

Daughter of Jacob Adler Seen
in Play at the Lex

The Lexington Opera House was
originally intended as home for grand
opera and the company which presented
Rosa Mschree.' a comedy drama, .her,
last night came very near TO fulfillins
its vocal requirements. They whooped
and yodeled in a manner to outdo Wag-
ner in his Nalkyrio moments. Though
the music was lacking the all important
attack of every operate aria was there
For some strange reason, however
they refrained from actually singing
That was left to Miss Julia Adler
daughter of the noted Hiddish actor,
Jacob Adler, who in making her Eng
lish speaking debut warbled two songs
of Irish and Hebrew character and ut
tered also occasional racial idioms
Whenever the action seemed tagging a
bit she was heard in something like
"Sholem Aleichem," and the neighbor-
hood audience had Mysteries. Her
speaking. loud as 1t was, seemed pref
erable TO her singing. louder as it was.
Though portraying a girl of mixed
parentage she steered clear of any
Celtic broguc which no doubt she could
have made to carry to the furthermost
gallery seat had she tried. Her fam
boyant loudness and that of her sup
port made one think the company needed
the stern. paternal hand of good di-
rector to keep them from running wild.
In her quieter moments Miss Adler's
character had a penetrating and appeal
ing quality Of it's own, but most of the
time she was straining Sor sort OF. OBJ
streperous charm. V/hen she wanteo to
be most cenie =,,, shouted and when
she aspirrd TO truly dramatic heights
she wriggled.
The play might have had some weight
as a play for racial tolerance but Ed
ward l.. Rose had filled it with his char
acteristic theatricalism in making the
piece feminine and East Side version
of Little Lord Fauntleroy" with q dash
of a Hester street Peg O. My Heart"

The girl played by Miss Adler was the
daughter OF an English aristocrat dis
owned and exiled to America by his
father for marrying a Jewish maiden.
