31 min. ‘To Save One Girl.’ This is a sketch fashioned after ‘The Man of the Hour,’ telling a story of how scheming politicians frame up a scandal on a Reform member of the Legislature in order to get a certain bill passed. It is filled with dramatic pyrotechnics from beginning to end with a strong climax in it and a marriage ceremony to solve the problem. It held close attention and there was a fair amount of applause at the finish. This sketch is by Paul Armstrong, author of ‘Alias Jimmy Valentine,’ etc., and Catherine Calvert, the principal, is Mrs. Paul Armstrong.
