This sketch called “Strongheart” was eighteen minutes long.
The sketch is the football scene from the William C. De Mille play “Strongheart”, with Robert Edeson as the “vigorous, deep-chested athletic young Sioux Indian.” There are no women in the sketch.
Edeson plays the Sioux man with such intensity of feeling that the sketch will be a success. Francis Brandon was passable as a foot ball player and H.H. Collum worked well in the role of the coach.
