 LAST THREE DAYS
To Be Presented at Lyceum
 Thurs. Friday and Saturday

The show Going Up" to be given at the Lyceum theater Thursday, Fri
 day and Saturday of this week under
 American Legion, Is a musical com l edy written about Old Massachusetts, | The play was written in Lowell and | is one of the best and most popular of recent productions. A peculiar coincidence connected with the local production is the fact
 that the leading female character will
 be portrayed by a recent resident of the city from which the play originat-
 ed. Mrs. Marion Chase will be the
 leading lady and although she is now
 6 resident of New Britain, her home
 for some time was in Lowell.
 Acting with her will be one of New
 Bi !tGir's most popular young ladies
 whose ability before the footlights
 has been brought out on more than
 one occasion. She is Miss Helen Egan
 whose work in number of the T. A.
 B. productions and especially in the
 last one, "The Little Millionaire"
 brought her much praise.
 Miss Gertrude Johnson, one of the stars in Hits and Bits of 1928" pre- sented by the A. D. S. recently, and Miss Mildred Hellberg, of the cast of last years Legion show will add much to the production.
 The male characters will be we'll represented and will consist of the best that New Britain can offer in the amateur line. The leading part will be taken by Urban Callahan whose ability as a nimble footed actor needs hardly any mention here. His im- mense successes in recent amateur productions and the naturalness of his actions in portraying the various parts he has represented has stamped him as one of the best actors New Britain has produced fin some time.
 Clement Lewis Is we'll known In New Britain. having taken part in many entertainments here. He was cast as one Of the leads in May time" a few years ago and this year he has successfully directed and staged the A. D. s. Alumni associa- tons show Hits and Bits of 1923" f1t Has btcfl d tlitIllDtE ol lib sff New Britain's leading entertainers, since it was organized two seasons ago.
 Robert Loomis, one of the most talented singers in the city, has also had leading parts in amateur pro- auctions in this city. Masonic and Legion shows have had his name as one of the principals and he is also one of the members of the Li. He has pleasing voice and is we'll cast in this years production.
 William NScheuyd will have the op- portunity again of turning the house into an uproar through his comedy parts. His work in the T. A. B. pro- ductions will not be forgotten in hurry by those who witnessed the shows and if there is a laugh in the "Bill" can bring 1t out.
 William Humason has also gained a reputation as an amateur actor and his work is expected to add much to the production.

THE MOON FLOWER,

Zoe Akins who has made the adap- tation of "The Moon Flower" the play opens the Parsons theater. Hart ford Thursday April 10th for the re. mainder of the week with Elsie Fer guson as its star and Sidney Black mer as the featured player is one of Americas most distinguished and most successful authors. Her first play 'The Magical City" was produc- cd by the Washington Square players in their first season when they were struggling for recognition. The pro- duction of this play won recognition for the players and for Miss Akins who was immediately hailed as the writer of romantic and poetic drama, and an author with a gift for situa- tion. A satirical comedy, Papa" was Miss Akins next production and this satirieal comedy disclosed new tal- ent. and with the production of her play "Declasse' in which Ethel Barry more played for two seasons, Miss Akins was established as one of the authors from whom the public may expect work Of high quality and an always amusing turn.

GIGLI IN HARTFORD SUNDAY

The tenor voice of Beniamino Gigli is regarded as the most beautiful that is to be heard in opera.
 "A voice of limpid quality, golden in its medium and ringing silver in it's upper register: mezzo voice which no tenor has equaled since the hey-day of Enrico Caruso, so soft and caressing is 1t; an extraordinary com mand of lagotar-these are the quali- ties of signor Gigli."
 Tn such terms a New York critic has described the great tenor's voice. It is a notable fact that in the eriti- cism of Gigii's voice the music judges of New York are wont to always speak of it in most flattering terms, coupling it's greatness with the voice of DeResvke. Mario or Rubini.
 signor Gigli does not often accept concert engagements and only the most important of the cities have been favored with the opportunity to hear him. Hartford Is the first Con- necticut city to be favored with a Gigli concert.
 He will appear at the Capitol thea ter in that city Sunday afternoon.

LEGION O. KS "wHIppTyG BOSS,

Based upon the sensational Tabert case. the facts of which were recited at great length in the daily press, '-The Whipping Boss" heralded as the most unusual photoplay ever produced" is arousjng public opinion throughout the United States against bsrbsrous penal systems.
 The Whipping Boss" will be ex- hibited for the first time in the city at the Lyceum theater, beginning April 2 10 2. It will be presented by Eddy Glover Post Of the American Legion.
 Although based upon a harsh theme, the producer of the film has made an acceptable audience picture. The film is crowded with action and is tense but not harassing. To relieve the story's tenseness, somewhat, s love theme has been, woven into the scenario. The cast Is headed by such aars as Lloyd Hughes, Barbara Bed- ford. Eddie Phillips and Lydia Knott.
 It will be recalled that the Ameri- can Legion played an important part in the investigation into Tabert's death. The Legion Post at Dangdon, \. D., cooperating with the Commer- cial club of that city, collected funds for the investigation and prosecution.
