IN THE THEATRES
LYRIC

Al K. Hall and his Sporting Widows came to the Lyric yesterday and were voted the best bur1esque show of many moons by two enthu- siastic audiences. Of course Al is considered Bridgeport's own, for he has always met with a riotous re- ception here and hds quaint humor has always registered with Bridgeport audiences, and in his new show he goes over bigger, brighter and better than ever.
 The nainreason for this is the fact that Al and his pals have done away with all hackneyed material and have trrotted forth with a sparkngly new show that is a treat to the eye as well as to the ear. Hall doesn't spring any of the old familiar gags but he has replaced them with a set of 1922 jests and jfbes which kept the house-which numbered over fifty perS Scent ladies, by the way-dn rare good humor.
 And then there's the chorus. There are 20 girls in this chorus, all of them easy to look at, and attractively cos tuned. They know how to sing we'll, and they put a great deal of ginger into their dances, making several of these numbers among the big hits of the show.

Pain in the back, headache, loss OF am
