NEW YORK, Dec. 6.-There
IN are robust, zestful ar ID
glamorous goings-ons in some OF
the newly lighted theaters along
Broadway. Also they doubtless
will turn out to be nourishing
fodder for Hollywood.
Libby Holman, returned after
troublous interlude of three years,
contributes q considerable share
of the glamour. The Group Thea
ter, victor in the last Pulitzer
Prize imbroglio, exhibits violent
and highly colorful picture of old
San Francisco.
And the Messrs. SchWab, Dun
ming and Abbott offer a comedy
that has set the Mansfield Thea
ter's rafters to vibrating with
echoed glee.
The pouty Miss Holman, who
determinedly has kept herself
aloof from all things Broadway

nant real-life dre need have

customers flocking to hear her
sing. 1t will be all right if she
wants to do some acting on the
side, but audiences especially de-
sire more of those throaty, Sob
bling torch songs.
ID EVENGE WITH MUSIC"
IN. Miss Holrnan's comeback
vehicle, carries her far from the
Little-Show type of intimate re-
vues. More OF an operetta, really,
and based on the Three Cornered
Hat, which is an DID Spanish folk
tale.
Arthur Schwartz has given
it excellent melodies, and the de-
signer and coStumer have thrown
in some of the handsomest effects
to be found on Broadway. The
dances are pleasing, too, but the
libretto might be a lot better.
For the story, there's the elder
ly but amorouS governor of
Spanish province who covets the
favorS of Maria Miss Holman,
singing peasant who is in love
with Carlos, the miller. Much to
his distaste, the Gobernador is
obliged to marry the pair, but

the bridegroom arrested.

RAINBOW SEEKS
NEW VICTORY

NEWPORT, R. l., June II.
Shellacked. That, in a word,
tells what Weetamoe, sailed by
Dick Boardman, did yesterday to
Rainbow, sailed by Harold S. Van
derbilt, in the fourth Of the series
of seven trial races now under
way here, and today the skipper
and afterguard of the New York
yacht are primed to even matters.
Yankee, put out of the run
ming yesterday when the seaboard
of the mainsail broke, sending
the great spread of canvas down
on deck, will not start in the
races today. Charles Francis
Adams, her skipper, is to attend
commencement exercises at Har-
ward University. That probably
means a triangle race with Van
itie, Rainbow and Weetamoe.
AS things turned out it may
have been fortunate that Yankee
was out of yesterdays race, for
the fresh breeze at and before
the start petered out to such an
extent that even Weetamoe, first
home, did not cross the finish
line until 26A minutes after the
stipulated time limit with Rain
bow trailing about 13 minutes
astern.
