with feeling by Jessel. I still have
that opinion. Since then I have
seen and heard Jolson in the movie
Vitaphone version. You recall that
I recommended JolSon in the movie
version as a splendid form of en-
tertainment. Both artists are SUI
preme in their own fields. Both have
different conceptions of the role.
Jolson relies upopnp his voice to put
over the role. Jessel stakes all on
his ability both as a comedian and
as an emotional actor.
Jessel is completing about the
end of his tour with The Jazz
Singer" In a curtain talk last
night he said that he has played
the role more than a thousand
times and that he is getting ready
for new show.
I know that most people are 60
ing to compare Jessel and JolSon in
the role. Let it be remembered that
The Jazz Singer" is Jessel's baby
because he created the role on the
stage And this play has been a
regular mint for Jessel.
Have always considered that the
value Of this show rests in the fact
that it gives Jessel a human COM
edy opportunity and at the same
time q powerful emotional and
dramatic chance He is a clever
comedian and it was only necessary
last night to notice the large num-

GOOD REVUE
NOW AT THE LYRIC

Frederick V. Bowers presents his
PalaiS Royal Revue and Harry
Shannon's Orchestra in one act
that embodied singing, dancing and
gag stuff
To open the act, the orchestra
files down the aisle playing catchy
tune and goes on the stage. The
main part of the act is the orches-
ira. which plays all the accompani-
ments to the dances and songs, as
we'll as several novelty numbers. 1t
is an exceptionally good band.
Maxwell Carew seems to be the
leading light as he gives several i'm
presentations. His best was a bur-
lesque on an Englishman. He gets
rather tiresome after a while.
The Six fuller Girls give the
presentation a touch of the revue
with several chorus numbers. There
are we'll matched and we'll trained
girls.
Bowers himself sits down to the
piano and sings several pieces, one
of which he says he wrote. This
man is a real Snowman, although
he acts mostly in the role Of mas
ter of ceremonies.
The Cole Brothers have some
Snappy songs and a hard shoe dance
that is good Edna Esmeralda is
a solo dancer, as is Ivan Lenoff. a
Russian dancer. All in ALL this is
an especially good revue.
Ray Fern and Marie have a real
hokum act. They do a burlesque
on a minstrel show, the two acting
evidently as the end men, although
the representation melts away into
something else. Then there is a
burlesque on the war of 1776. I
must confess that I got a real kick
out of some of the comedy Of these
folks. 1t is real pre-war stuff.
Talbert and Fisher are substi-
tuted for Hilton and Hughes. But
the substitute act is good, with some
comedy songs. These two men dress

Team Still Lacks Good
SouthpaW Pitcher.

| ~ JHitGd Press
PITTSBURGH, Feb. 21.-Another
nine as good or better than the one
which won the National League pen
nant last year will take the field on
April II, Barney DreyfuSs, president
of the Pittsburgh Pirates, said in
speaking Of his 1928 club today.
The Pirate owner, usually re-
luctant to speak of the clubs pen
nant possibilities, feels confident
that Manager Ownie Bush will pilot
better team during the coming
season than he did last year.
And a nOn-partisan by-stander
might view the 1928 Pirates much
i'm the same manner.
Winter trading has strengthened
the Pirates. HaZen (KikD Cuyler
outfielder who was kept on the
bench most of last season because
Of his feud with club bosses, was
traded to the Cubs for Earl (Sparky)
Adams, second baseman and Floyd
Scott, outfielder.
The Pirates needed a second base
man, and they got him in Adams
They did not need Cuyler; they won
the pennant last year without him.
Scott, mediocre outfielder, may
be used as a catcher.
The Pirates engineered a last
minute trade with Giants, exchang-
ing Vic Aldridge. pitcher. for Bur-
leigh Grimes, pitcher Grimes won
nineteen games and lost eight last
year and is expected to bolster the
pitching staff.
Old faces will spot the infield
along with Adams. Third base will
find the dependable PIE" TraynOr
and ShOrtstOp Glenn Wright. both
ustanding players in their re-
Spective positions. George Grant
ham and Joe Harris will handle
first base.
The Waner brothers, Paul and
Lloyd, stand head and shoulders
above the mob in the outfleld. A
running mate for them in left will
be chosen from Scott, Adam Como
rosky. Fred Brickell and Clyde L.
Barnhart. the veteran.
John Gooch and Earl Smith,
veteran catchers. will bear the brunt
Of the curves and fast ones. Their
batting last season fell far below
Iar which hurt their value as regu-
lars They will be supported by two
recruits from the minors, Ralston
Hemsley and Claude Linton. Scott
q leo t,oary no need
Ray Kremer. Carmen Hill and
John Miljus and Burleigh Grimes
probably will take the leading roles
on the mound for the Pirates.
Lee Meadows probably will be
used as relief hurler chiefly. Joe
Dawson is expected to show inn
provement over last year, when he
had such bad luck.
Pittsburgh must depend on rockies
for left-handed pitching in the COM
ing championship race. Fred Fus-
sell, George Peery and Lester Bar
tholomew are the southpaws. Right
handed rockies are Erwin Brame
James Lindsey. Lee Mahaffey, Glen
Spencer, Walter Tauscher and
Charles Walsh.

COMMITTEE TO
HEAR EVIDENCE
IN SLACK CASE
KOehring Charges Will Be
Considered at Special
Meeting.

Willard w. Ferguson, Democrat,
chairman Of the committee investi-
eating charges against Mayor Slack,
Police Chief Claude M Worley and
board of safety members, today
planned a special committee meeting
to hear evidence.
Council President Otis E. Bartho-
lomew referred the charge of
Charles Koehring, south side
merchant, that the defendants
caused arrest of innocent persons in
the police gambling war, to the spe-
cial committee, composed of Fergu-
son, four Republicans, and two other
Democrats.
Council can vote to impcach the
city officials if the charges are found
sufficient, the statute provides.
Ferguson nominated Mayor Slack,
a Democrat, Nov. 8, when council
elected him to the Office.
"Well investigate this in the
regular way. Koehring will be called
before the committee to present
whatever evidence he has in the
matter" Ferguson said
All councilmen except Bartholo-
NEW and O. Ray Albertson, Re-
publican, who was absent, are on
the committee.
sion to witness action on his
charges, but did not address the
council. He declined to reveal his
plans.
IT am sorry the charges are not
taken seriously" said Koehring.
IT want this committee to handle
these charges in an unbiased man
ner," Bartholomew said, in naming
the committee.
