POli Review

Polls theatre again offers its pat
 rons a good show this week as an
 opener. Perez and Marguerite display
 short snappy Juggling act that is
 top-notcher in its line; and Hal
 Johnson and Go. offer a farce comedy entitled "A1r. Chaperone,' the best part of which is the female imper-
 sonaion of Johnson, who iong ago established his claim to being a front
 ranker in this art.
 The headline act. Miss Eva Shirley
 and Oscar Adfer's jazz orchestra, is
 truly worthy of foremost place on the bill. From them oInent the cur tain rises on this clever collection of musicians to the final. the audience | Teels they are being treated to some- thing really good. She has very sweet voice, though not strong. It is, however, of fine quality and good tone. With the company is Al Roth, a whirlwind dancer, one of the best seen here in a long tine-
 Bob Murphy has a good act In himself but like many of the real | good acts today, is overcrowded with his extras. If the young lady and | his Eskimo had more of a part there might be an excuse for carrying them
 along. Howevor, Murphy is good and they don't take away from the value of his act.
 Greenlee and Drayton. colored dancing and singing comedians. are great. Their Yiddish comedy. com 1 bined with some Russian, French and German is a riot and both boys are | exceptionally good dancers.
 Pathe News as usual presents some | excellent scenes the world over. | Turn to the Rigfnt.'' with Alice Terry and Jack Mulha1l is one of the truly
 great new pictures. without a single l line to be censured in it. From the | time that Jack first runs away to the

By WILLIE HOPPE, Former Billiard Champion of tn World

Chicago, March 2S.- realize I nave a tough opponent. Schaefer played wonderful billiards last night. He made almost every conceivable shot He showed resourcefulness. brilliance and nerve
 But I think l can beat him. am @ little proud of the game I played myself. am sure I convinced Schaefer that it would be hard to lose me. At one stage of last night s contest, after Schaefer made his spec tacular run of 252, I appeared to the spectators to be hopelessly beaten. Schaefer followed this with a run of 146, missing on a difficult masse shot. He then had me 446 to 19O- That looked bad.
 I had to get hold of myself and get going. I did. I clicked off 260 points for the high run of the night, passing Schaefer,o the score standing 450 to 446 when I went back to my seat.
 Then it was anybody's game. It was a question of who would get the break and run out. We each had plenty of chances, but could not get going. I followed with runs of 9, 3 md l, Schaefer with runs of II, g and 1. Finally he got the break and fan out.
 As the score now stands it's really a toss up. I expect a close fight to the finish, but I am confident I will win.
