It actu- ally begins at 8 o'clock too. Last night the house was well filled long before the hour and when the cur- tain went up there wasn't a vacant seat. | Highlights of the two and one-| half hour show were an exquisite performance by a violin quartet| consisting of M Phyllis Langdon, | Corrinne . Jenne, Sylvia Davis and Connie Davis; a comedy song by veteran trouper Jack Kearney that had the ience demanding en- core after encore until he ran out of verses, and a really funny skit {about a tailor shop. | Director Performs | Uggen, director of the show, contributes one of her inimi table song numbers in true pro-| fessional style.

O'Brien, as head man for | | big fruit company, is the big shot | of Puerto Aguilar, and runs things pretty much to suit himself. Chief | | thorn in his somewhat tough side is | Cagney, as the ace plantation boss, who refuses to be run.. When the | story opens, Cagney has just given‘ !nouce that he is quitting and gu\nz‘ |back to the States. O'Brien has to | |swallow his pride and bribe him to ' stay, because he is badly needed. In a fit of tempetr over this situation, O'Brien goes into the Hotel Nacion- ale Bar, and finds Miss Sheridan cheating the patrons at cards after | wowing them with a torch song. He ,orders the chief of police to arrest her and send her back to the States. [ But Miss Sheridan likes the tropies and she also likes Cagney, of whom | she has gotten a brief glimpse, so she escapes from the boat just before it sails and stows away on the fruit train that is taking Cagney back (o | his plantation job. - o Your Income Tax Refurns | A professional man may deduct | all necessary expenses incurred in the pursuit of his profession.
