OPPORTUNITY

Often we hear our young men and women make the
complaint that the door of opportunity is closed against
them and that is useless to spend years in study and
preparation for the chance that How real
y foolish this idea may be understood when
siders the position of the Negro in America.
Opportunity after all, is but chance for service.
We have in this country twelve millions of Negroes Af
fectng this vast number host of economic prob
lens that must be solved What doing to solve
them? Are our young people really awake to the
ending possibilities that these problems present?
What need and most of all is not political
leadership, religious leadership but economic leader
ship. We need men and who understand finance
and create credit and business. We need and
women who can tackle the housing problems north and
south We need contractors, technical experts able d
rectors- statesmen and saleswomen We need action
translated into deeds
Men and who do things and give
proof that they do things, will find thousands ready
to support and assist them to make their dreams
true. No is willing to support genius than
race but it demands that genius do than dream
dreams.
So let our young people this talk of the closed
door OF opportunity. When one has twelve millions Of
human beings to deal with, door of opportunity
remain closed. The demand grows. Let those answer
who To be able is the real test of wheh
er or not the opportunity is deserved.

We part of it and do not live in vain.
Ours is to work unfalingy and unflinchngly, to be

THE PRESIDENT-"Buddies.'

1t is ladies first" at the President
Theater this week. Histrionic honors
go to them undoubtedly. Although
the male characters in Buddies, first
given by the President Players last
night to a pleased audience. arc for
the most part admirably portrayed,
yet it is to the women of the COM
pany that most credit must be given
for the evenings enjoyment. With
each succeeding role that she imper-
sonates Miss Eileen Wilson is more
captivating. AS Julie Benoit. the
little French girl, who has fallen in
love with q Yankee doughboy, she
vas coquettish, fearful and joyous In
turn; but never shy; oh. no. never
shy. She speaks English with that
delicious French accent that is al
ways SO irresistible. Miss Anne
Sutherland. as Nine. Benoit, was
real French woman Of the humber
class. Her portrayal Of the part OF
one overcome by misfortune was so
faithful as TO make her auditors posi-
lively uncomfortable. No higher
praise can be given. Miss Lee Patrick.
formerly of the Bunch and Judy"
company. who undertook the role OF
Louise Maitland at only a days
notice. is a valuable acquisition. In
last Mondays review OF the Bunch
and Judy" mention was made in The
Star of her striking beauty and her
musical ability. To this was added
last night a terpsichorean grace that
called for encores. Mr.. Henry Duffy
in a curtain speech spoke very
warmly OF Miss Patrick's achieve
ment. which he styled little short
of a miracle" She had learned the
lines OF the book and the songs with
only an afternoons study. Misses
! Constance Brown and Madeleine
O'Brien. the two younger daughters
of Nine. Benoit. were attractive to
look at and phrased their French
charmingly. George Sweet. as sonny,
acted with spirit. sang we'll. and held
up the lead of the male characters,
although he was not the hero. The
a way that many recalls were de-
manded. Henry Duffy. as Babe. the
bashful doughboy. had a. character
that seemed strange. He was a BASH
full, slouching soldier, not only before
his sweetheart. but before his COM
rades also. One could not see the
plausibility of the character as he
interpreted it. The other male roles
were played convincingly and pleas
/! ingly. The play is simply the win
ming of a bashful lover. with the
back ground of doughboys billeted
after the armistice at French
| hamlet. There are a thwarted villain
and lovers misunderstanding
(Which is cleared up, of course).
Eight musical numbers are scattered
through the three acts the most
catchy being please Learn to Love-"
by Julie: my Indispensable Girl" by
Louise and Sonny. and Hello Home"
by Julie and Buddies. The play is
too long and could be improved IL the
fearful matter were reduced. 1t would
tighten up the piece and make it al
most a continuous laugh. Mr.. Duffy
announced that THE Meanest Man
on Earth" and "Six Cylinder Love"
would follow "Buddies.''

RIALTO-"The Christian" +"

Hall Gaines novel, "The Christian"

is stated that the settings for the
British exteriors were all the original
ones and not manufactured in Holly
wood. They are certainly realistic
and add much to the effectiveness Of
the somewhat strenuous story.

SO makes a most detailed collection of
eplsodes. Richard Dix plays the part
or the almost fanatical hero and Mae
Susca is the gay, pleasure-loving
heroine. Phyllis Haver has a COM
paratiVely important role that in it's
drabneSs is decided contrast to her
FORMER comedy roles as a Mack Sen
nett bathing beauty. Mahlon Hamil-
ron also has an important but rather
thankles role, which he plays with
admirable constraint.
without doubt the feature Of this
production that most stands out in
the excellence of its quality is the
photography. The scenes on the Isle
OF Man are delightfully."- quaint. with
the matched cottages. the crooked
little lanes and the proverbial British
hedges: the race scenes on EPSON
Downs are full of action and colorful,
and the night scenes in Trafalgar
Square and on London bridge have the
typical misty. fog that helps every
Travelled American citizen to recog-
nize London.
The comedy Dog Sense" deserves
special mention because of the we'll
trained Boston bulldog that is the
star OF the picture: the story is trte
enough, but the dog is wonderful.
The news reel and some excellent jazz
numbers by that clever group of mu-
sicians. the Melody Boys, complete
the program.
