CHILLS AND LAUGHS
 IN THE GORILLA
Splendid Performance Of New
 York Success at Parsons
tBy Herald Reviewer

Punctuated plentfully with thrills and laughter, Ralph spen- cer's crazy quilt Of mystery and mirth, "The Gorilla" came to Par sons theater, Hartford, last night for weeks presentation by the or ignal company which played be- fore New York audiences for months. In the long and interesting annals of the theater nothing of similar type has ever been produced. Tt measures up to that much over worked word unique.
 There isn't possibility Of catch | ing a nap during the performance. Suspenses and doubt blanket the show and the blanket is torn to shreds every few minutes by March gales of laughter.
 The Gorilla" Is said to be a satire on certain dramas which came into popularity in tho past few years in which credulous going public drank deep at | the fountain of mystery. It is aim cd particularly at tho thrillers in which persons on the stage vanish, Even in the printed program, tho audience is prepared for what is coming, the cast being announced "in the order of their disappear lance" After reading that and then having the lights in all parts Of the theater extinguished. If you can start the show without a lump in your throat you are not like the rank and file of humans.
 The play Is written around two blunderlng detectives and their et- forts to track down a criminal who is known as the Gorilla" In their peregrinations they encounter many Iexperiences which have their reac- ton on the audience in the form oi Ichills or laughter. It is a rapid-flre performance of sleuthng and their hands are full from the time they announce they are intent on cap turing the criminal who holds the Icountryside in grip of fear.
 "Mr. Mulligan," one Of the detec' lives, Is cleverly characterized by Clifford Dempsey; "Mr, Garrity." his partner, is ably played by Frank Mccormack. If there are two stranger or more ludicrous creations of the playwrights pen they have yet to appear In these parts of tho world. Robert Strange added few thrills with his portrayal o' Arthur Marsden," the dramatist Harry Hermsen gave remark ably true to life presentation ol Jefferson Lee" a colored man wht was on the verge of death by fright Betty Weston did well as Alice Denby," niece of Cyrus stevens the role taken by Frederick Trues dale, one of tho most importan members of the cast. Frank Beas ton contributed lighter parts a
 "Simmons," newspaperman Others In the cast arc Augustu Minton, Joseph Guthrie, Doan Bor LID and Harry A. Ward, whose an ties as a gorilla were convincingl! chilly.

The War Department has approved
the adoption of a new caliber 3 am
munition, designated as model MI,
which Is quite similar in most respects
to the 1924-5 national match am
munition. The new ammunition has a
boat tail bullet with 9degree tapered
base, and gives a much fiatter ira
jectory at 1000 yards than the match
ammunition Of 1919 to 1928. 1t has
range Of over $500 yards when fired
at an angle Of 80 degrees, as compared
with little less than $500 yards for
the 1919 ammunition, a little over 8, 500
yards for the 1920-1, and a little less
than 4, 500 yards for the 1928.
For the benefit Of the advisory
committee OF the American Chemical
Society, who have given their serv-
ices to the War Department in con-
nection with. national defense mat

ton was held at Edgewood Arsenal
last Friday. Advantage was taken OF
this opportunity to demonstrate to
members of Congress, as well as high
ranking officers Of the Army, Navy
and Marine Corps, the progress
which is being made in this element
of our national defense. The demon

Of the United States from any foreign

w. E. Cranston, State Administra-

the necessity Of having permits to

sections of Delaware into other dis
tricts. In issuing the warning, Mr..

cause any inconvenience to those per
sons planning to carry potted flowers
and plants from Wilmington into low
er Delaware on Memorial Day. All
such plants will have to be accompani-
ed by permits.
In speaking of the issuing Of per-
mits, Mr.. Cranston said persons desir-
ing to remove such plants from the
quarantined area will have to obtain
permits from his office or the dealers
they purchase their plants from. Il
was also learned that not all dealers
there in potted plants or owners are

STATE REDUCES TRUCK SPEED
Truck Drivers Wrought Up Over Law
Enforcement of 25 Miles Per Hour

Growers and shippers of truck and
produce from the Eastern Shore who
are using motor truck transportation
to convey their crops to the markets
in Philadelphia, New Jersey and New
York are decidedly wrought up over
the enforcement of the traffic regula-
tion in Delaware which demands re
duction in speed of all trucks weigh
ing with load 5000 pounds or more, to
twenty-five miles per hour, instead of
thirty-fve.
There has been a very rapid growth
in truck travel over Delaware high
ways during the last two or three
years. From records maintained by
the State Highway department, this
increase has jumped from twenty or
twenty-five trucks day to approx
mately one hundred within the same
period, in less than two years. Trucks
of less than 5000 pound limit and
those making return trip without load
and having pneumatic tires, are still
permitted to travel at the thirty-five
mile an hour speed limit.
