"Applesauce" Cast
Awaits Opening

"The Village Ne'c Do Well" is
what Judge Thompson thinks of Bill
MeAllister, the leading role in
Applesauce, which will be pre-
sented tomorrow night at the Palace
theater by local talent under the
auspices of Royce Aten Post, Amer
lean Legion.
But the womsn OF the village. and
lots of other folks too, think Bill is
just fine young fellow, and they
like his "ApplesaRce" which is SO
distasteful to the j2dge.
Mill is a likeable, happy-go-luck
young fellow who just has not been
able to find himself. His rich uncle
and many. of his friends believe
him lazy, when he is just, unable to
get started. The role is played by
Harold Crockett, a newcomer to FL
Centre, who is going to make a big
bid for favor with the local folks.
He handles the difficult role in re-
markable fashion and under the
careful coaching of Sanford Dodge.
who is directing the play, is ready
to give finished performance.
There is one more character in
"Applesauce,' known as Rollo Jen-
kins. As the name might imply, he
is sap. \ sap with capital s.
The part is played by the person
who writes these lines, otherwise
the editor of the Press, and the
sappv part fits him naturally. He
guarantees a finished performance,
being familiar with the genus sap
in all its particulars.
The show is guaranteed full of
laughs from start to finish and the
cast, as we'll as members of the Lc-
gion post, feel positive that all who
see it will enjoy it.
Several talented musical and cont
edy artists will appear during the

Varieties Bill
Proves Popular

Large audiences greeted the first
performance of West Coast Narie-
ties at the Palace theatcr Yesterday
and judging from the applause
which greeted the various acts, FL
Centre people will thoroughly enjoy
the high type of vaudeville offered.
Helen Schiller and her musical
playmates opened the bill with a
snappy selection that scored big
with the audience and were follow
ed by the King Sisters, two clever
harmony singers whose we'll blended
voices were heard to advantage in
clever songs.
"Arkansas Charlie,' of radio and
Columbia record fame, acted as
master of ceremonies and also made
great hit with his old songs and
musical numbers.
The bill will be repeated again
tonight.

1.-THE Valley OF the Giants has
added another remarkable perform

screen successes.
Playing Bryce Cardigan, Sills sur
passes any of his past performances

"The Valley of the Giants" is a
story of the lumber industry on the
Pacific Coast, and of a romance
that grows out of rivalry between
two rival lumber barons. The story
by Kyne was an interesting and
thrilling one. and in bringing it to
the screen, First National Pictures
has lost none of the beauty and ro-
nance of the original.
