COMEDY ACTION
MARK GAYETY
SHOW

RUDE Bernstein's "B thing
Beauties" strutted their stuff at
the Gayety last night to the
great enjoyment of numerous
burlesque fans. The two acts
and twelve scenes are replete
with witty dialogue. amusing
situations and tuneful music,
while the interpreting company
measures up to the best stand
ard Of Columbia burlesque.
Those two roysterers, Jack
Hunt and Clyde Bates, had little
difficulty in keeping the audi
ence amused with their antics.
They are old favorites here. A
newcomer is Dorsey" Biron, who
flashed across the Gayety stage
ike meteor. Her songs and
dances won the applause honors.
Winnie Phillips, whose personality
and physical charms have long
endeared her to audiences all
over the circuit. was awarded
generous tribute for her contribu-
lions to the entertainment. Ethel
Bailey stepped out several times
with song numbers that pleased.
Aaron and Kelley, two colored
boys, got rousing reception
with their dancing. The gyra-
tions OF Aloma in a South Sea
Island dancing number won APP
prevail. Max Stamm and Jimmy
Holly deserve mention for their
part in the show. H, w.

Sheridan, being a required
branch of literature in most
schools and colleges, these
rivals by Mr.. Tyler suggest
that ne has taken a census of
the possible patronage over the
country and intends to reap
what countless professional
tongues have sown. The tour

dclcates this. That aggregation
is still en- tour and no longer
than a few weeks back was in

week is a run.
These two revivals are def

to say that such a staging as
this will not have a certain
appeal for the individual of
more popular fancy is wrong.

Dear Mr.. Phillips: If you've
been anywhere near Nelson Bells
headquarters in the last forty
eight hours or more, you can
easily imagine why this report on
what's going on at the Metro
politan has been delayed.
When we yentured downtown
Sunday afternoon, we had no idea
that SO many people would find
THE. Lost World" But there
they were, standing out in the
cold, cold breezes of F street,
and just beginning to Irvine low
ingly around the southwest corn
err of Tenth and F.
Entering through the customary
tunnel for Sunday critics, we
were soon inside, in time enough
to hear Dan Breeskin's melodians
play the sweeping eerie New
World" music of DVorak. Then
the curtains rustled aside, and
the picture came into view.
1.-THE Lost World began in
strict accordance with the Conan
Doyle novel. as we remember II.
Wallace Berry ragged and stamped

ger, much as Sir Arthur had de-
picted the colossal discoverer Of
the unworldly plateau of the
Amazon valley where prehis-
toric monsters, isolated from the
rest Of creation, still roamed the
woods.
Then the love theme was in
troduced. and we found Lloyd
Hughes, as Ed Malone, a young
London reporter, torn between
allegiance to Alma Bennett, his
fiancee, and Bessie Love, who.
young and attractive lady, was
going on the Challenger expedi-
ton to South America with these
two men, Lewis Stone and at
tendants.
Well, they all got to the plateau,
and they saw the monsters fight
ing and everything, rema rkably
life-like reconstructions OF pre-
historic beats. This called for
a good deal of double exposure,
but the difficulties were mastered
successfully.
The explorers underwent many
narrow escapes on the plateau
before they were enabled to
descend. A brontosaur had oblige-
ly fallen off the edge of the high
cliff into a bed OF mud, and
they trussed up this gigantic
creature and brought it to London
to silence those who doubted the
professor. And the brontosaur
got loose, giving rise to some of
the most spectacular scenes in
the picture, including some
splendid mob work.
On the whole, the picture is
one of the most fantastic in film
history. Considering the work
Of antimating the monsters, IL Is
remarkable achievement. The

This cast is pretty much of q
real delight. The stage is rare
ly bereft of one character or
another, portrayed by someone
whose reputation in the past
doesn't add a duality of appeal
to the work Immediately in
hand.
Among the oldsters, there is,
for instance, Henrietta Cross
man, as Mrs. Candour, arch
deaconess of the school for
gossip and backbite. Miss
Crossman, looking freshly young
and smooth of countenance and
improved, it seemed to me, by a
new huskiness of voice. There is
Jefferson de Angels, retrieved
from retirement for a noble bit
as the Jew, Moses. There is Ben
Field, as Sir Oliver Surface,
who seems a Sir Oliver born
to the manor as Sheridan con-
strued him. AS to Mr.. Fields
past endeavors / know nothing.
Obviously they have been i'm
portant and valued.
From a less remote period
we have the SHINY majestic
Julia Hoyt as Lady Sneerwell,
accomplishing to better purpose
than few previous appear
ances recall; the hardly known
May Collins, as the youngest
Lady Teazle on record, giving
to that role such impudence
and frivolity as might be ex-
pected from one who's made a
wastre! of spring love; Mary
Hone as depressed and rather
colorless Maria.
The male side of the cast
lends a decidedly robust body
to the structure. James Dale
