"The Lovelom" With 'Sally O'NeU at Nonbore Sunday "Lovelorn," the film which swayed thousands who viewed it at its downtown showing, will appear at the Norshore Theater during the week beginning Sunday, February 5, with the sisters Molly O'Day and Sally O'Neil portraying the roles of sisters in this modern day, when hip flasks, automobile rides, and cigarettes are ' the vogue. It is a gripping picture, poignant with sister love, and dangers present for a generous-minded girl. Larry Kent, James Murray, and Allan Forrest support the so-called Noonan sisters. This is a story by Beatrice Fairfax, the well-known love expert and adviser of girls throughout the country, and compiled by her, using several of her correspondents' letters as a nucleus. "Lovelorn" is a strangely realistic story which brings before the public in a startling manner the temptations and dangers which are said to be everpresent to this modern youth. Their trials and tribulations and their happiness and felicity combine to make one of the best stories of the "jazz-age" type presented this season. AI Kvale and his jazz collegians will hold the stage in a hilarious and roaring production entitled "Leap Year Fancies." Dazzling beauties wiD pounce from all cprners of the stage to engage your attention-their privilege during this leap year.

Such a one makes a lot of trouble for Eddie Zllison, ·reformed second-story man. and his ~harming telephone operator wife Kay, in "Square Crooks," the Eva~ston Players' current offering at the New . Evanston. Quite up to their usual style, the Players offer the Evanston playgoers, that smaJl group of the more astute and sophi:;ticated· Evanstonians, another good play, well acted, in James P. Judge's comedy drama. Charles George, the company's engaging leading man, plays the part of Eddie, and Margaret Fuller depicts Kay with great success. Eddie isn't an easy character to play at all times, but George, being the actor that he is, "puts him over" in great style. Miss Fuller is well adapted to the part of Kay and finds no difficulty in presenting a finished characterization.
