John Fitzmaurice led his Sham

the weekly forty-five matches spon-
sored by the st. Francis Holy Name

which was expected to be the best

one-sided affair and rumors were
around the hall that the Earbenders
sold out because Fitzmaurice hap
pens to be member of their Or

loud at the conclusion of the Mark
Reed play. The waterbury Players,
headed by Miss Susanna Jackson in
the role. of the mother, met the
complete favor of critical audience,
all of whom await the next presen-
tation.
The comedy, directed by Sidney
Riggs, dealth with the problem Of
morals in a modern well-to-do fam
lily. The setting was in the sum-
mer home of the Murray family in
New Canaan, Conn, and Mrs. Ann
Whitman Murray, mother, was be-
set by the crisis in the life of her
daughter Ellen, played by Patsy
Patten, who escaped with her lover
for a weekend tryst. The question
of whether her actions, which were
supposed to be secret, were moral
or immoral is thrashed out among
the banker father, played by Rich
ard Irving, Constance Nevings, an
oft-married aunt, played by Helen
Louise Lewis, Titus haywood, a girl
hood sweetheart of Mrs. Murray,
played by Sidney Riggs, and Mrs.
Murray, played by susanna Jack
son.
A solution Is found whereby Ellen
and her lover, Douglas Hall, played
by Robert Breton, may marry and
live together in Europe, Douglas
at his new job in Belgium and Ellen
at her position of reporter in the
Paris Office of New York news
paper.
Miss Patsy Patten In the role OF
Ellen Murray received a loud ova-
ton for her splendid characterize
ton. Miss Susanna jackson, play
ing the part of the mother, carried
the assurance of job well done.
Settings in the play were by Lor-
EMO Molteni. Next week the Wa
terbury Players will present "Pur-
suit of Happiness, an American
comedy by Lawrence LANCER and
