THEATRES
At the Majestic

Al the MdJeStlc
A great show is promised at the
Majestic Theatre when Breezy
Tines comes to that theatre for a
series of nights and daily matinees.
Breezy Times is in two big acts
and ten picturesque scenes, in which
the comedy element is predominant.
Edwin Hanford, we'll known as an
Iauthor of burlesque and musical
comedy books, is the author, while
the many musical numbers have
been staged by Aurelia Coccia, the
noted number producer who is-fav-
orally known through his %associa-
ton in this capacity with many of
the Jean Bedini shows. The
Breezy Times comedy is a most
capable one and includes Billy Cree
don and Sidney Taye, Don Trent,
Carrie Allen, Edythe Murray, Eve
Ilyn Cunningham, Fred Reebe, George
Leon and Carries (Tramp) Mentally.
Creedon and Taye + two mar
velous dancers; Don Trent, last sea-
son with maids of America" is one
of burlesque's most popular straight
men, Carrie Allen is a dainty little
beauty of good voice and dancing
ability; Edith Murray, the fiery red
haired dancer was last season an
improvement member of Al Reeves
show; Evelyn Cunningham, who con-
tributes pleasing songs and good act
ing has a big following in burlesque
having been with both Barney Ger
ard and Arthur Pearson's shows;
Fred Reebe, late with maids of
America" is an eccentric Dutch
comedian; George Leon wins many
laughs in the role of a boob comic,
while Charles McNally is n of the
best d~elineators of tramp charac-
tiers on the burlesque stage.

COMMISSIONER
Of LABOR SOON
Win be Appointed Within
Week Says Governor SiIzer
at Bank Office Here

A new commissioner of labor to
fill the vacancy caused by the death
of Lewis I. Bryant may be appoint
ed within a week, declared Governor
George S. Silzer today when seen at
his desk in his office at the Perth
Amboy Trust Company here. He re-
fused to discuss the matter further
and gave no hint as to whom he may
have selected for the appointment.
Governor Silzer has found the fill
ing of this Office to be one that de-
sired more than the usual considera-
ton in view of the fact that the man
must be acceptable to both labor
and the industries and so mor than
two months have passed since Mr..
Bryant's death without his successor
being appointed.
The work in the department of
labor has been proceeding as usual
under the direction of Deputy Com
missioner Charles H. Weeks. Each
bureau has been functioning under
the direction of its chief and with
this apparent smoothness the abb
sence of a direct head has not been
felt.

CHARGESM MADE
IN WILL CASE
Or. Cotton Questions Medical
Opinion of DR.. RoSkoW in
Freeman Action

NEW BRUNSWICK, Sept. H.
Cross-examination of DIR. Clarence
Roskow, of Newark, who was called
to give expert medical testimony In
the Freeman will case, featured the
afternoons session at the orphans
court yesterday. DR.. Roskow in his
testimony attempted to show that DR.,
Freeman was not insane. DR.. II. A.
Cotton, who testified in the case on
Monday when questioned about the
medical opinion that DR.. Roskow
may give replied:
81 would have no confidence III
DIR. Roskow's opinion as he was a
drug fiend himself and was under
treatment at the state hospital, al
though while there we did employ
him to help out in the work.
Asked by Attorneys Thomas Brown
and Russell E. Watson, attorneys
for the caveats, DIR. Roskow yes
terday admitted taking drugs before
going to Trenton, but declared that
II was administered to him by his
musician, He admitted that he
came there as a patient but was al
lowed to practice in that institution
DR.. E. B. Funkhouser, of Trenton
first assistant to DR.. Cotton, was the
next witness to be heard. He believ-
ed that the will could nave been
drawn by DIR. Freeman, but from a
hypothetical point of view it was
highly possible that Freeman was
not in his right mind when he drew
the will. DIR. Funkhouser said that
Freeman showed an improved con-
dition at the institution. He also,
said that it was a question difficult
to ascertain whether Freeman's brain
tissues were so affected, as to make
him insane. At the time Freeman
left the hospital the witness declar-
ed he was capable of knowing his
relatives. DIR. Cotton previously ex-
pressed utmost confidence in the
ability of DIR. Funkhouser as an
alienist.
The case has been adjourn
ed until Monday for argume nts be-
fore which time briefs will also be
filed before a decision is rendered
by Judge Kirkpatrick.

At the Ditmas

Stories of crook life, as well as
pictures that depict the simple
country life, are always interesting.
When these two phases of life are
blended in a picture by such an ex-
pert director as Irving Cummings,
aided by Alice Lake, Milton Stills,
Ralph Lewis, Gertrude Claire, Ben
Hewlett and Richard Headrick, a
startling, thrilling and entertaining
picture is sure to result.
In Environment" a new Princi-
pal Picture which was shown at the
Ditmas theatre last night, Mr. Cum
mings has made a feature of extra
ordinary force. The story was writ
ten by Harvey Gates, an author who
knows his subject matter and has
translated it into terms of compell-
ing drama-the drama of life in the
underworld of a big city-the drama
of a storm-tossed soul who found en-
vironment-the drama of a crook
who found redemption. To miss it
Is to miss the treat of the season.

There is considerable discussion

Babe would not even hit above the
400 mark if the opposing twirlers
were not so liberal in doing out free
tickets to first to Bambino. Last
year he was given eighty-four bases
on balls. So far this year he has
surpassed this mark for free rides
to first.
Two things are responsible for
Babes improved stick work. He is
using a shorter bat this year-over
an inch shorter than the ones he
has been accustomed to. swinging.
And he is adopting different styles
at the plate. He is not always using
his famous toe hold, with the result
that many short safe drives are
being made by Babe where he for
merly struck out by trying to drive
every ball out of the lot.

Clyde Rosenberger, Techs scin--
tillating track captain, has switched
from Penn to Penn State and has
already made an application for ad-
mission to the Nittany College next
season. Big, lanky Ross Lyons has
chosen Dartmouth as the scene of
his future athletic deeds.
Rosenberger is one. of the best

Walnut street school and Coach
Harry DeWire predicts rosy COL
legiate career for him. Clyde set
rev records for both the century
and the 220-yard dash in central
Pennsylvania ranks during the 1928
season and is almost sure to make
good under Nate Cartmell, former
Penn coach, who is now at State
College.
The Red and Blue institution
could have used Rosenberger as a
successor to Capt. Boots Lever,
whom he resembles quite little.
Lyons is a classy football play
er and should make the big
Green" freshman eleven without
much trouble. He is big and
strong and has seen much service
on the Tech eleven at tackle and
guard. Ross will leave the Capt.
tai City late in the summer to
join the Green football squad in
time for preliminary training.
Penn drew one athlete, but he
will enter in minor sport. Ike
Freedman played on the Tech ten
mis- team, and was listed around No.
4 in the school circles. Freedman
shows promise at the net game and
may develop into a classy racquet
wielder.
Frank Laskowski, Techs best
miller. will continue his studies and
cinder path work at Syracuse.
Laskowski scored several points for
Tech, but was not a consistent win
ner.

Der of both the track and basketball
squads, has chosen ALLEGHENY
Hartman entered Tech from the
Western end of the State and ia.
Vors that section. Hartman was
sub-center on the basketball team
and high jumper on the track team.
Carl Monismith, another miller and
two-miler, will enter the University
of Maryland next fall. Monismith
did not have an exceptionally good
season during 1928, but may develop
into speedy distance runner.
