NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. love. =

NATIONAL--.seven- Love-"
Brock Pemberton's second production
of the season Is smart, sophisticated
comedy called "Seven-Year Love"
which will be seen at the National
Theater next week. Mr.. Pemberton Is
easily identified as the producer Of
Strictly Dishonorable," which Is one
Of the outstanding comedy hits Of the
current New York season. The author
Of Seven Year Love-" which opens on
Broadway after its washington engage
ment, is John y. Haggert. young Bos-
tonian and. naturally enough, Har-
ward man.
Seven Year Love" concerns itself in
the first act with group of people at
q farewell dinner party before their de-
parture in private yacht for Europe.
Ursula Kane persuades her husband to
accompany them, although she plans an
affair with the fascinating Spencer
Keyes, The second and third acts take
place on the French Riviera in the villa
of an eccentric countess, and the whole
play contains an abundance OF bright
comedy, the sort that might, in an un-
guarded moment, be called flip.
Mr.. Pemberton is combining his pro-
ducing this season to comedies, as he
feels that the trend In the theater, due
to the pressure Of modern life, Is toward
entertainment values and away from
serious thought. For seventeen
Love" he had assembled an unusually
fine cast which he and Antoinette Perry

Julie Sutton, Kirk Ames, John Robb

Gayety Theater next week. 1t is said
that, Notwithstanding the high charac-
ter of his previous productions. they

with his new show, which boasts Of O
performance in every respect suited to

La Barba Hopes To

LOS ANGELES, April 13.-(Pl-
Back from a combined honeymoon
trip and fistic invasion Of Australia,
Fidel La Barba, former flyweight
champion, is busy Planning a CAM
paign for the acquisition on another
ring crown-that Of the bantam
weight division.
The erstwhile king of the 112-
Founders has mapped out a program
whereby he hopes to win the ban
tamweight championship of the
world between now and October,
and then will retire from the ring
for good. He will re-enter Stanford
university at that time, he says,
and. after three years there, will
become a bond broker.
La Barba returned home yester-
day with his bride of q year and
his manager, George v. Blake, from
the "land down under" 1t was q
successful trip for La Barba. who

CHICAGO, April 13.-(F-Jackie
Fields, 22-year-old Chicago boy,
may be rated as a synthetic welter-
weight champion in some places but
in his own home town he is a
worlds champion.
A graduate of the Chicago Ghetto
and Olympic featherweight cham
pion in 1924, Jackie has convinced
the home town fans that he is the
right man to top his division.
BY defeating Young Jack Thomp-
son, Fields qualified for the welter-
weight championship under a rul-
ing by the National Boxing asso-
citation which held that Joe Dundee
had forfeited his right to the crown
because he refused to defend his
title.
This makes Fields the titleholder
in the rs states governed by the
N. B. A..
In several other states, which are
guided by the decisions of the New
York state boxing commission, Fields
still ranks al just a contender, since
the New York group recognizes
Dundee as the champion.
IF Jackie could have had a little
better luck in two New York fights
during the last two years, he might
stand higher in that region. The
Chicago lad lost to Louis Kaplan in
the summer of 1927 and six weeks
ago made just an ordinary showing
in winning a f0-rounder from Baby
Joe Cans.
In Chicago and out on the Pacific
coast where he has done most OF
his fighting, Fields stands high an,
