The first ladies' night Of the sea-

ming inaugurated the series of popular
entertainments which the Entertain
ment Committee, Louis Moneyway,
chairman, has made specially Of at
the club. Originality and variety can
always be found on these programs
with q return, now and then, of IA
vorite performers.
Such was the program planned for
last night which featured George
O'Connor with Thomas Brahany as
master Of ceremonies. As far as the
list Of artists was concerned 1t was
not a ladies' night at all for the
only lady among the GALAXY Of stars"
advertised was Helen Howison, So

program, divided between operate
arias and duets, Stephen Fosters
loved melodies and other Southern
songs, was in the capable care Of
Bernard Fitzgerald, William Raymond
and William Shanahan, tenors; Ed
win Steffe and Charles Trowbridge
Tittman, bass, with George Wilson,
accompanist. The evening was
brought to a riotous climax by George
O'Connor singing his inimitable songs
ably abetted by Matt Horne at the
piano.
Before the singing began. the audi
ence was given demonstration of the
wonders Of magic by william Warner
Durbin, register Of the Treasury and
president and founder of the Inter-

Of the studio made it possible to actu-
ally show scenes which Shakespeare
had to leave to the imagination of his
audiences.
DR.. Reinhardt was given complete
freedom in selecting his cast. 1t was
only after repeated tests that he chose
for the key roles James Cagney, Joe
