Wells Lyric Soprano Columbia Theatre Orchestra FRED BARLOW, Director CISTI EH!

It can be described only as a riot, for the fun j began at the first curtain and did not let up until the very last minute. An Interesting feature of the new bill last night was the appearance of Miss Marie Rich, the nev leading woman. Miss Rich made a splendid first impression, having a good singing voice, pleasing personality and did her share in keeping the fun going, bhe is a distinct addition to the company. "Why Grow Old" is a ridiculous mix-up caused by a wonderful elixir of youth which the 'professor," in the person of Ed Redmond, is supposed to have discovered. What the professor and his young friend, a clerk, who Is George Banta, thinks the elixir does is sufficient to furnish fast and furious fun which does not lessen, but in creases as the play progresses. As the professor, Ed Redmond, as usual, is a world of fun. Roberta Dean is a very busy person in this week's show, appealing in sev eral characters and scoring her usual hit She sings a song. There Wasn't Anybody There to Meet Me," that is a scream. Miss Mary Fladeland appears again this week and Is very satisfac tory. besides singing one song, "Just Like a Gipsy," with the chorus. Irene Noblett scores another hit this week in two songs and made herself an even greater favorite with Fhoerux playgoers. Glenn Hood's voice again was pleasingly heard in two songs, one most talked of pictures to play Phoe nix in a long time. At the hands of Cecil B. DeMille. "Something to Think About" has been molded into an achievement that will rank as the pinnacle of excellence. Its story is well within the reach of every person who visits the theater, whila its influence will make itself keenly felt from the first reel to the last fade-out The production bears the unmistakable evidence of DeMille di rection, manifesting that true knowl edge of motion picture construction which has made him the screen's most brilliant director. The cast Includes Gloria Swanson, Elliott Dexter. Theodore Roberts, Monte Blue, Theodore Kosloff. Julia Faye and Mickey Moore. The musical program accompanying the picture Is exceptionally appro priate and adds much to the entertainment. Blue Bird Phoenix is to have a movie actors ball, and it is going to happen next site of a successful career in the land Friday evening at the Blue Bird.
