Fendell, "Caruso," and Eddie Barto, "George M.
Cohan." Kathryn Pearl appeared twice in the first part,
but only prominently In the "OibBon Girl" number,
which she handles acceptably. Janette
Woods, as "Blanche Bates"; Margie Conboy, as
"Maude Adams"; Elizabeth Adams as "Gertrude
Hoffman," and Beatrice Fern, as "Fay
Templeton" were also listed among the women
principals, adding more or less to the action of
the piece. Sadie La Mar gains a little prominence
for some toe dancing of only fair merit.
A
good, wholesome, clean, lively show la given by
the "Strolling Players." Whoever had the making over of the
show accomplished something in putting together
an entertainment that should please any kind of
an audience. The "Strolling Players" is the best Empire Circuit
show seen here In some time and it is not
far from being worth classing among the very
best seen here this season on either Wheel.
