Latest Theater News-- "The Lovelorn" With Sally O'Neil at Norshore Sunday "Lovelorn," the film which swayed thousands who viewed it at its down- town showing, will appear at the Nor- shore Theater during the week be- ginning 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 For- rest support the so-called Noonan sisters. This is a story by Beatrice Fairfax, the well-known love expert and ad- viser of girls throughout the coun- try, and compiled by her, using sev- eral 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 ever- present to this modern youth. Their trials and tribulations and their happi- ness and felicity combine to make one of the best stories of the "jazz-age" type presented this season. Al Kvale and his jazz collegians will hold the stage in a hilarious and roaring production entitled "Leap Year Fancies." Dazzling beauties will pounce from all corners of the stage to engage your attention--their privi- lege during this leap year. Al and his gang have to keep stepping and have to keep pouring out sizzling and Bill-O-Fare Saturday, February 4 "Almost Human" "Square Crooks" ae Teatro del Lago aaa s New Evanston Phe Spotlight'... .. 0.0. vis Norshore Law of 'the Range' ..........

Such a one makes a lot of trouble for Eddie Fllison, reformed second-story man, and his charming telephone operator wife, Kay, in "Square Crooks," the Evanston Players' current offering af the New Evanston. Quite up to their usual style, the Players offer the Evanston playgoers, that small group of the more astute and sophisticated Evanstonians, anoth- er good play, well acted, in James P. Judge's comedy drama. . Charles George, the company's en- gaging 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 present- ing a finished characterization. The lines are not so funny and the drama not so intense in this book as in many others that the Players have put on but, on the other hand, it's a much better show, acted with greater ability, than a dozen or so that have done well in the loop. Witnessing the foiling of the "hard guy" detective and the ultimate triumph of the "square" crooks is very good entertainment. The other reformed yegg, Larry Scott, is played by a newcomer, May- nard Brooks, who overacts his part in many places. Ann Dere takes a char- acter part in the production and a hard character part at that--the landlady, Bridget O'Rourke. Her Irish brogue may be rather spotty but, on the whole, she does well. Richard Ward as the unscrupulous dick is excellent. Ward is a talented actor and portrays the crooked head- quarters man to perfection. So well, in fact, that members of the audience will be tempted to commit mayhem if they happen to run across him on the street sometime. The other members of the cast are Beatrice Lieblee as Jane Brown: Lew Welsh as the desk sergeant, Timothy Hogan, a bit sweet on Bridget; George Pembroke as Mike Ross, murderer; Karl Way, the director, as Philip Carson, whose stolen pearls cause all the immediate trouble, and Chester Woodward as Clancy, a very minor character.
