...cents. Happily, Miss Hayes did not at tempt the brogue. Arthur Sinclair (McDonnell), 47, is a Dubliner by birth, studied for the bar, abandoned the legal profession when he was 17 to join the famed Irish Players at the Abbey theatre. In 1911 he made his U. S. debut in The Rising of the Moon. He later appeared in The Playboy of the Western World. At the premiere a large body of truculent, transplanted Hibernians rioted in the theatre, tossed overripe fruit & vegetables at the actors because the play presented "an Irish girl in the situation of remaining all night...
Prodigious child musicians have a way of flourishing like the flowers of the field and fading just as fast. An exception last week proved to be Violinist Erika Morini who nine years ago at the age of 15, made a debut memorable for rare technique, vigorous emotion. For three years Morini toured the U.

Coach Horween certainly has a wealth of good backfield material as demonstrated by the play of Forbes, Leonard, Brinkley and Record, all of whom are supplementary to the first two backfield quarters. Huguley, also in a debut, as understudy to Wood, hauled his backs in creditable fashion besides showing that his passing eye might also be of service...
Nina Rosa was nurtured through a debut in Chicago and a tryout at the St. Louis Municipal Opera. Manhattan audiences, watching the opening curtain, were reminded of that Hispanic musical durbar of a past season called Rio Rita. There were a number of handsome U. S. citizens transplanted to a South American scene. They apparently had been having difficulty in locating a gold mine in the Andes which had once been worked to a profit by the Incas. The plot grows more Incandescent when it develops that Jack Haines (Guy Robertson) has fallen in love with a lady (Ethelind Terry...
