Comedy Presented d By
 Civic Theater Cast
Popular Play, Murray EiiI', to Be Repeated TOmOr-
 row Night, Thursday and Friday

Murray HIll," . comedy in three acts by Leslie Howard, was present. cd by the Civic Theater players last night directed by Gordon 0iffen with the following cast:
 Vane ......... J. Freeman Coffey Mrs. Case ........... Sevia Nilsson May Tweedle =. Gene 6tettbacher Elizabeth Tweedle. Josephine Canty George Appleway. |. Isaiah Roosin Amelia Tweedle .. Elise s. Young Warrington emythe ...........
 ................ Frederic J. Wood Wrigley ..,. Thomas M. Rianhard
 Leslie Towards comedy about the threads of modern ideas and gen. eral goings on in the stuffy Mur- ray Hill home of three elderly ladies, all this being effected mainly through the antics of one young inebriate, one young man in love and a young lady who faints (nnoBt of the tine) when she happens to glance at this young fellow who Is in love with her, got off to a rather shaky beginning last night but picked up as 1t went on and fins ished in high gear.
 Complications
 The plot itself is concerned with the complications evolving out of the visit of Q nephew to collect his legacy, his state of drunkenness, Q lawyers quick action which suc- ceeds in bringing about some intri- cate misidentities and the subse- quent turmoil in the lives of the three elderly Murray Hill ladies, Mrs. Case, played by sevia Nilsson, May TWeedle, played by Gene 6tctt- bncher, and Elizabeth Tweedle, played by Elizabeth Canty.
 After Worthington Snythe, played by Frederic Wood, has been rclegated to the background by George Appleway, played by Isaiah RooSin, in favor of c young man by the name of Wrigley, played by Thomas M. Rainhard, who is pass- ing himself off aB a deputy mor- tician, the plot begins to center It. self around the young, beautiful and very bewildered Amelia. played by Elise 6. Young, and works itself to 6 delightful and complicated ending.
 Members of Cast
 Isaiah Roosin, cast as Appleway, gave a most excellent account of himself last night and there were times when it appeared, for some obscure reason, that the plot of last nights performance depended solely upon him. Mrs. Josephine Canty, as Elizabeth, was poised and participated in the best scene of the play with Frederic J. Wood, as 5mythc, near tho close of the sec- ond act. Thomas Rianhard, cast as Wrigley, WAS excellent as the serious young man in 6 lot of trou- blc and the parts of the two elderly ladies were competently handled by Gene Stettbacher and Sevia Nilson. Miss Young as Amelia was as good looking as the plot called for and injected Q certain vagucness into her voice at time whcih was very gratifying. Az the butler, J. Free man Coffey was excellent.
 Tho play will be presented for three more nights, beginning to- morrow night at tho Leavenworth street playhouse and with tho ob- vlous shakincss removed, 1t should be well worth seeing. Doubtlessly there was . bit of nail biting going on behind the scenes last night. but that happens at all amateur productions, and if the play was not the best ever produced at the Civic Theater, 1t certainly was not the worst. --J. F. D.

Saturday afternoon.
The accession council will

the empire will follow.
It was understood the Duke
had not yet decided what
title to take, but it was con-
sidered likely in high quar-
tiers he would be proclaimed
King as George vi, rather
than as Albert l.
The moment his abdication
becomes effective King Ed

today.
He is retaining none of the
titles of nobility or courtesy
his position as sovereign &C

Canada Gives Answer
To AbdicatiOn Today

OTTAWA, Ont, Dec. 10 G.N.SD.
Prime Minister Mackenzie King
was expected to give Canada S
answer to the abdication of Ed
ward VIII on a national radio
hookup this afternoon.
Canada was stunned by news
Of the abdication despite the fact
it had been predicted freely.
There is little likelihood Of a
summons to Parliament to meet
at a date earlier than the formal
opening fixed for some weeks
hence.
Change in the situation between
P arlia am ent and Crown has
wrought such q turnover in public
sentiment concerning the contro-
verSy that the present Canadian
administration is considered now
to be in no danger of lack Of
public support, even if it admits
having eXerted any influence to-
ward today's development.
Constitutional procedure under
the statute Of Westminster calls
for repetition in Canada Of all
the ceremonial associated at the
British parliament with abdication
Of one monarch and proclama-
ton Of his successor.
Since the governor general Of
Canada is directly representative
Of the crown, and not Of the
British parliament, as formerly,
it is believed the appointment of
Lord TweedSmuir to Canada may
have to be reaffirmed. The gov.
ernor general returned a few days
ago to Redeau Hall here and Is in
