A NEW COMEDY
DEBUTS AT
NATIONAL
Bx ANDREW r. KELLEY

By ANDREW X. KELLEY
Dwight Taylor, son of the dis
tinguished star, Laurette Tay-
lor, made his debut as a play
wright last night with the pres
entation of "Trevelyn's Ghost"
a farce comedy produced under
the aegis of MesSrS. Tyler and
Erlanger.
The new opus is a curious
and loosely contrived mixture
Of mystery play burlesque and
blown.in-the- bottle farce, omit
ting the best features of both.
A wholly prepoSterous and silly
set of characters, all flimsily
drawn, move through three acts
of amateuriSh hokum which
was greeted occasionally by POI
lite laughter, but otherwise by
bored tolerance.
Some few weeks ago Howard
Thurston, making his bow as an
author, offered THE Demon"
a short-lived mystery drama in
which he showed by magical
hocuS-pocuS what could happen
in a country mansion when the
objective was to make baronial
halls the dwelling place of
ghosts and eerie things to bring
about its sale to designing pro
moterS.
"Trevelyn's Ghost" is predi-
Gated on a similar plot. The
mistress Of Remington Castle
is eager to sell the estate
around which have grown
tales of apparitions, which
stalk the hidden passages. Her
fiance objects to the sale of
the property, hence the plan to
convince him the place is
haunted.
The saving grace for such
transparent dramatic fIuffinesS
would be speed-a pace which

FINE CONCERT
BY HARVARD
CLUBS

Who would suspect that the
Christmas concert Of the Har-
ward University Instrumental
Clubs would prove to be a
veritable Jack Horner-Pie? Those
who attended the function at
the MayfIower Hotel last night
found the program full Of de-
Iightful surprises.
Alumni that generously dot
ted the assemblage in the ball
room must have derived a great
amount Of pleasure as the series
of campus favorites were rem
dered in fine manner by the
banjo, mandolin and vocal
clubs.
Even a non-collegiate could
not have resisted the time en-.
deared tribute Fair Harvard,
which the combined clubs Oh
fered In magnanimous style.
Interspersing the group num-
bars were features that con-
verted the presentation into o
most enjoyable show.
A challenge to the master
Houdini was made by De Witt
Stetten, q genial entertainer,
whose sleight-of-hand tricks
kept the onlookerS thoroughly
interested and decidedly out
witted.
Tenor solos sung by John 8.
B. Archer were the highlight
of the program. Mr.. Archer
possesses q voice that Is re-
markably sweet and mellow.
Round, well-directed tones lost
nothing Of their richness as
they covered a difficult range.
The applause that followed the
three ballads was well merited.
Kingsley Perry was thoroughly
enjoyed in his ventriloquistic
perfection, Anyone who knows
the least about the tricky voice
art could appreciate the clever
feats he performed.
G. w. Briggs and r. G. Ed
wards, in a skit entitled liar
yard Club Special" re-estab-
lished ones faith in Glowing
musicians.
Popular dance tunes, as
played by the excellent Gold
Coast Orchestra, one Of Har-
wards beSt-known organizations,
contributed much to the gen.
eral success Of the program.
In fact the next musical by
the Cambridge men is some
thing to be anticipated.

Out of it all will unqueStion-

In the few weeks Mr.. Rogers

Of all the M. C,'s who have

none caught on as quickly as

leaves behind a definite fol-
lowing and has huShed into q

Much of this popularity may
be attributed to the fact that
