THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGltAM, RICHMOND, IND., FRIDAY, DEC. 30, 1921.

Theatrical Attractions
MURRAY VAUDEVILLE
. Marietta's Mannikins, and Coacl and
Verdi's "Stringing Comedy" are the
two main attractions at the Murray
theatre the lst half of this week.
The mannikins are most ingeniously
operated by the use of strings, and
are the wonder of the season. A mini
ature theatre stsge with side boxes is
reproduced. In the boxes are replicas
of current cartoons, in puppet form,
while the stage presents an interesting
series of mannikins in action. An
orchestra composed of dummies is well
arranged. The act presents an unusual
and comic performance.
The "Stringing Comedy" probably
was the most popular with the Thurs
day afternoon audience. The more the
team played their violins (with a huge
share of comedy) the more the specta
tors applauded. The two boys score
a hit. Exceptional comedy Is the spice
of the offering.
Trick juggling with artistic setting
is to be found in the bit presented
by Dewitt Young and company. Much
rarely to be observed in similar acts
tntertains the approving spectators.
It's a "light' sketch presented by
Saxton and Farrell. Unexpectedly hu
morous situations, combined with a
snatch of song by both, is tha happy
formula.
Corinne Griffith in "The Single
Track," is the film atraction.
MARVIN.
MURRETTE. .
"What Women Will Do," the Ed
ward Jose Production showing at the
Murrette theatre is a melodrama of
modern New York life. It deals with
a young woman who becomes involved
in a malicious scheme designed to
mulct a wealthy old lady, whose grief
over the suicide of her son while he
was under the stigma of a charge of
murder, has made her easy prey.
In working to the climax, in which
the girl and her companion are elevat
ed through the regenerating influence
of the grieving mother, the story intro
duces elements of great contemporary
juieresc, among tnem spiritualism.
Charles A. Logue wrote the story
especially for Associated Exhibitors,
and Mr. Jose, in casting the charac
ters, chose such popular players a-j
Anna Q. Nilsson for the role of the
girl, Earl Metcalfe for the part of her
companion, George Majeronl for the
thief plotter, Jane Jennings for the
mother, Allan Forrest for the hero,
and Riley Hatch for the detective.
MURRAY.
In "The Single Track," which is
now showing at the Murray, Corinne
Griffith forsakes for the nonce the life
,of luxury and ease of a debutante ot
young society matron and plunges in
to the life of a western settlement,
with all its attendant frontier customs
and excitement. Known as one of the
most attractively gowned women of

and sunbonnet, khaki and sombrero
and plays what is for, her a new type
of character. 1
Only in the earlier scenes laid in
New York city does she have an op
portunity to display her art in wearing
beautiful gowns. . . .
"Th Single Track" takes its title
from a spur of a railroad that, when
completed, will connect the heroine's
mine, all that remains of a wasted
fortune, with the main line. It must
be finished before the option on thc
right of way expires. Rival interests
employ foul means to cause delays,
and the fair young mine owner goes
to her property personally to take
charge.
The picture is spectacular to a de
gree.For over a month, 200 workmen
were building a half mile single track
spur on the Delaware, Lackawanna
and Western railroad in the Catskills
near Archville, and a high trestle over
a river.
RICHMOND.
Mabel Julienne Scott, one of tho
screen's most popular young emotional
stars is now at the Richmond, theatre
in "No Woman Knows," the widely
discussed Universal-Jewel film version
of Edna Ferber's magazine master
piece, "Fanny Herself."
"No Woman Knows." was produced
at Universal City and on the actual
locale of the original story, under tho
direction of Tod Browning. Into it
he put the same dramatic fire that dis
tinguished "The Virgin of Stamboul ,"
and "Outside the Law. He has pre-;

strokes, the flashing strokes of humor
and the deep pathos of Miss Ferber's
work.
Miss Scott is admirably suited for
the part and playgoers who liked her
in "Behold My Wife," and "The Sea
Wolfe,' will find her interpretation
of "Fanny" a dramatic gem.
The entire cast is composed of
players who have demonstrated un
