Ted Lewis Jazz Band.

What the modern vaudeville patron
wants was made manifest last night
at Keith's by the big audience that
packed the house to hear Ted Lewis
Jass Clowns perform. That this or
ganfzation is a national favorite is
we'll known and, in addition to the
popularity of it's gifted leader, the
attraction stands without superior
in the matter of drawing power.
Lewis has his band under perfect
control and, in the matter of light
and shade given the different num-
bers presented, there is none of that
hlaring outburst from trombones that
makes a nightmare of the sweetest
harmony. Ted makes his debut as
an oldtime actor of Shakespeare,
cleverly recites the lines, lamenting
the fact that the bard has drifted
away from popularity, and then doffs
his cape with a smile and the jazz
is on All the popular airs are pre-
sented with catchy little twists and
turns by the performers and their
instruments. The educated music
lover may listen with scorn, but the
mob" enjoys the jazz to the limit
Although allotted thirty minutes, the
act went well beyond that and
tumultuous applause finally compelled

THE Cat and the Canary
ASain.

The second week of spine-tickling
and gooseflesh opened at the Shu-
bert-Belasco Theater last night, with
~The Cat and the Canary" at the root
OF it,
1t seems that the good mystery play
these days is the only real box office
contender against musical comedies.
It's human nature to want to be
thrilled, held in suspense and sub
jected to blood-chilling. For this the
mystery play that is now starting its
second weeks stay at the BelaSco un-
der the guidance of kilbourn Gordon,
Inc, seems to fill the bill to satisfac-
tion.
If the Messrs Shubert were to get
reckless and offer to refund on de-
mand cash to those in the audience
who did not feel just a culver or two
of the thing known as the fear COM
pleX il is a safe bet, If truth were
told, that only the blind and deaf mutes
would be in the return lineup. Just
keep on saying to yourself, Its only
q play; let's laugh and not be afraid,
and you'll Shiver nevertheless. 1t hits
an audience with a wallop from the
outset and there's plenty of nervous
laughter at every opportunity, but
when the final curtain gently de-
Scends upon the clearing-up of the
mysterious things those who have
been genuinely thrilled are so accus-
toned to yelling their emotions that
the applause takes some time to rip
pie out.
Walter Regan, as Paul Jones, the
human type. who is afraid, knows it
and yet walks into danger, and sgd
rey Reynolds, as Annabelle West, the
heiress, make the most of high-pitch-
ed moments. The entire cast is ad-
mirably selected-Virginia Howell, as
NANNY" Pleasant, the unpleasant
Toodoo lady; Carl Eckstrom, as Harry
Blythe, villainous looking, yet good
underneath; Ryder Keane, as Charles
Wilder, nice looking, but villainous
at bottom-and insane in streaks; /;
Percy Moore, as Roger Crosby. the
1atherly attorney; Clara Nerdera, as
Ctcely Young, a nice sort of girl;
Florence Huntington, as Susan Sills-
by, what women term "a cat; Ed
mund Elton, as Hendricks, a shivery
sort of murderer, and Franklyn Fox.
as DR.. PatterSon-whom no one knows
how to take"
Evening star., 1924-04-15

off a lot of nonsense as 1.-TWO Nuts
on a Bolt" Jack Kennedy with Helen
Ward win laughter with a domestic
comedy, wait a Minute" and Harri-
son Greene and Katherine Parker
make more laughter with nonsensicai
chatter, closing with pretty song.
The strong feature of the bill is
Pola Negrfs Paramount picture, The
Shadows of Paris" which presents a
tragic story of the queen of the
apaches, who marries the prefect of
police and is afterward bounded by
a former apache lover and a social
thief in her new circle of life. 1t is
the best acting picture for Pola since

Jack Mundy and The Law
breakers"

A sextet of pretty girls in a com
pany headed by Jack Mundy are an
important factor in putting over with
dash of mirth and fun the amusing
features of The Lawbreakers," this
weeks headliner at the Cosmos Thea
ter, in which the penchant for speed
ing automobiles is the theme. An
important and clever comedian of the
lively company is Wilbur Cox, a rube
deputy sheriff, whose Characterization
stands out above the others. There is
no pretense of a plot, but just q
merry series of incidents with an oc-
casionn bright quip or jest-and, of
course. the pretty sextet.
The bill opens with fine offering
of head balancing and equilibristic
feats performed by Frank Reckless
and company on brass rod resting
on a mans shoulder and a brass lad
der supported by a. reclining woman.
The feats are difficult and interesting

ADJUSTMENTS

Ted Lewis to beg off from sheer ex-
haustion.
Jack Osterman, a newcomer. has
an act entitled "A Visit to Holly
wood" in which he uses the camera
in pictu-ing well known screen ar
lists and at the same time carries
on a patter of smart talk and jokes
that keep the house in almost con-
tinuous laughter.
Sybil Vane, the little welch prima
donna, abandoned the classics for
popular songs and also scored a
splendid success. She has a pleasing
personality and clear soprano voice
and she received many recalls The
program opens with an extraordinary
athletic casting act by the Four
Adlonas that was well received. Ger
trude Moody and Mary Duncan of
fered a singing turn strengthened
with original comedy work. For

The fact was appreciated by the au-
dience last night.
The comedy is handled by such
well known performers as Frank
