Has Quai By CHARLE FTER eleven years the quiet of | A ‘Pomander Walk" was broken, though not disturbed, at tho Broadhurst Theatre last night by the welcome sounds of Hugo Felix’s mu- sic, and the little London by-way took on a holiday air with comely damsels vocally inclined or lightly skipping the rope dance in the simple spirit of 1805, The mood of Louts N. Parker's comedy was maintained tn the book of Catherine Chisholm Cushing and the lyrics of Brian Hooker, kept up with so much care, indeed, that the piece ran nearly an hour too long. Moreover, at times it was as slow as the Thames. Yet there were com- pensations in the plats tife of the “Walk,” with its lavender romance, 1s doorstep intimacy, tts innocent curiosity, and its gentle humor. The sailor who loved @ lass, and his father who loved her mother again after letting the matter slip his mem- ory for twenty-odd years, were ay sure of finding happiness as the bux- om widow was of capturing the gruff old Admiral or The Eyesore was of eatching his reluctant fish. Most familiar of all was Lennox Pawle in his old role of the butler putting on the airs of a master for wil the world like a lackey out of Dickens. Combing his silvery hur out of the window of one of the five red-brick houses, quieting his Gis- tressingly prolific wife with a word wver his shoulder, or strutting the “Walk” in all his glory, Mr. Pawle was wholly at home, no less domesric and lish than a suet pudding. Occasionally he murmured a song uo" bfted a foot discreetly, and in his stuffy, puffy way made a jolly good dob of it. Little Mary Hay scored a big hit as that amorous child Barbara, playing with mischievous spirit, dancing like an imp, and making the most of her ut Plays and Players By BIDE DUDLEY ‘T was a great party they had the Knickerbocker Theatre yesterday afternoon. Fifteen hundred actors and actresses crowded into the house to see “Bull Dog Drummond” as the Guests of Chailes Dillingham. It was ® happy party, too. Equitys bowed nods in return; hoofers said “Hello hid!” to musical comedy stars and S\N-a-day vaudeville actors pointed vut John Drew and affectionatgly called him Jack. And how the audi- ence did cough! One would think, wouldn't one, that actors with coughs would remain away from theatres in order to avold disturbing fellow-play- ers on the stage? But such was not the case yesterday. They coughed Just like common people and they ap Piauded the poor down trodden hero and heroine and hissed the villains During the intermissions the men went out in the lobby to borrow cig- arettes while shapely ladies paraded in the aisles and discussed their pasts, Presents and futures.

After singing the prologue sucess- fully, Peggy Wood went pleasingly on her way as the romantic Marjolaine, though occasionally slipping off the key. Irving Beebe was a dashing nava] chap, and he swung into instant favor with his “Song of a Sailor.” But with “Marjolaine” both he and Miss Wood were sadly out of harmony. A charming number, “Syringa Tree,” was delightfully sung by Worth Faulkner, and he and Nellie Strong brought out the beauty of “Stars of Your Eyes.” There was good acting by A. G. An- drews as the Admiral and by Daisy Belmore as the determined widow. “Marjolaine” has quaint charm and beautiful music, SuoES HATS == Teo NOW.
