Sters of the two musical comedies now playing here, “Loule the 14th,” at the New National Theater, and “Sky High,” at Poll's Theater, will be guests of the club, and George O'Con- nor will sing new songs written espe- cially for the ocoasion by Harry Von Tilzer. The dance program will begin at 9 o'clock, with Ted Weems and his Vic. tor artists rendering selections. The Irving Boernstein Wardman Park Ho- tel Orchestra will join the frolic at midnight, after which hour both or- chestras will play. The first part of the entertainment program will begin at 10 o'clock sharp. Boxholders, 7 excite wonderment as to why they occupy their roles. The entire attrac- tion is spiced with pleasing vari- ations, and a well balanced perform- ance is the outcome, Alice Guilmette, the song bird, has a rich, melodious volce, which carries to every nook and corner. Her ap- pearances in song are many and her encores numerous. Harry Stratton is the featured fun- maker, and he and “Red” Marshall are a ludicrous team. Stratton is cast in a Yiddish role, and Marshall, with a flery mop, as the dolt. Rae Le Anse, singer and dancer, is a prime favorite with the audience, and Ruth Olsen & willing _and well received ingenue. “Jolly John" Quigg entertains with Joss, Is one |his accordion, and soon has the entire ations in [audie with him. dia not| “Plantation night,” which was in- want them to stop last night.
