the flower girl who went by-by into
a mental voyage with a nut by the
name Of Henry Higgins and his
mental sexual caretaker by the
name of Colonel Pickering.
No real indecent sexual harm
comes to this dame who sells flow
ers The poor fool develops a soul
OF something. The poor professor
in the experiment develops nerves
and a bunch Of talk.
And SO there is no twin bed idea
about "Pygmalion." Everything is
so mentally rough and so perfectly
decent that the sea buyer gets the
laugh from such a fine excursion in
what have you behind all the smart
experiment.
Now to the cast. I will forget Mrs.
Pat who first gave me the introduc-
ton to "Pygmalion." The Guild does
not terrify me. Here is an organiza-
ton that knows that Shaw has real
fun. Tons of it.
They tackle it as such. SO we will
record those who win in the fun.
Elliot Cabot is immense in his fun.
That is until he tackles that last act.
Something slipped in his Henry Hig-
gins. Most of those present in that
last act last night slipped. They
seemed to forget Shaw. But up until
that time you had a bunch of Shaw
fun delivered as he would want It
done. Cabot's Higgins is very much
Shaw up to the last act. Immense
with that one reservation.
The same with Frieda Inescort as
Eliza Doolittle. Just near perfect fun
until about five terrible minutes in
that last act. Percy Waram is Col
onel Pickering. The real thing that
one would expect an intelligent and
an honest actor to do with Shaw.
Both attributes are necessary IN
making Shaw come to life on the
stage.
And don't forget the masquerade
Of fun that Dudley Digges puts over
as Alfred Doolittle. Gigantic fun in
his hands is this middle class Doc
little.
And don't fail to pay attention to
Ruby HALTER as Mrs. Pearce.
And so you have Shaw about 80
per cent of the time magnifcently
done. And that is 80 per cent better
than I have ever seen his "Pyg-
malion."

SELECT PETTY JURY
Deputy Sheriff's Second
Trial Is Started.

Selection of a criminal court jury
to try Elmer E. Petty, deputy sheriff
and Fifteenth ward Republican
chairman, on charges Of drunken
ness and operating a car while
drunk, began today before Judge
James A. Collins. Petty is being
tried a second time for the same
offense, because a jury failed to
agree on a verdict three weeks ago.
Petty denies he was drunk when
a sheriff's car he was driving struck
another driven by John Stack, of
near Millersville, at Sixteenth street
and Riverside drive, June 6, damag-

because he would not assume re-
