ARRANGEMENTS COMPLETED
FOR 1.-THE ROSE DAWN

For the past week, work on THE
Rose Dawn" has been going very well,
and the show promises to be in per-
feet condition by Tuesday night
Six choruses of girls of all ages have
almost mastered the difficult dances
required of them and by the time of
the show will be in top-notch condi-
ton, it Is said.
The setting of "The Rose Dawn" is
the temple of an obscure Hindu sect
hidden in the outskirts Of London,
England The leads are played by Alice
Peterson and Tommy Jewell Action
aplenty begins when Sally, an Ameri-
can actress, played by Dorothy Racicot,
and Oscar, played by Buzz Baker, enter
the temple so that Sally might learn
secret temple dance They find things
in confusion and Sally Immediately
starts solving things more or less
helped by Oscar, who is really more
lof hindance than a help.
Charles Martin takes the very diff
ficult part of Nal1kar, the priest of the
temple Mrs Blackwell takes the part
of nurse, the one who awaits THE
Rose Dawn" Lillian Friend will make
you roar with laughter in her role as
Laneera, a very simple native girl.
Viola Bessey> plays the part of Zadya,
the principal dancer of the show.
For speciality numbers the American
Legion Auxiliary have secured Charles
Moore's colored quartette. These boys
will delight you with their perfect
harmony in singing songs you have
never heard them sing before.
Miss Bettye Martin has consented to
present song and tap number. AS
Miss Martin has been away to dancing
school for the past few years, this
number already promises to be
especially good.
All in all the entire production will
be real two hours Of perfect en-
tertainment and easily worth much
more than the low admission price
asked.
