USDER the general designation of wholosa.1 fun must "Blxry Iszy" be pigeon-holed because It's so much of everything that goo. Into th mak ing of good entertainment. First you think It's Just going to be a musical comedy, but aa It progresses; you rwalls that a continuous vaudeville la going on. with specialties, aongs. dances. Jokes, travesties, all sorts of comedy, some fresh and now, some neither fresh nor new and a mint of musical foolery. "Bixsy Ixxy" kept the Baker Theater auaiences at iBBtcnmj matinee and evening performance in a continual gale of giggles that ascended often Into a crescendo of unrestrained mirth, and again dropping Into th low rumble of satisfaction. In a two-hour procession of Joy, all sorts of pretty girls little ones, big one. and capable principals flit across the other elde of the Incandescent.. And all of It is pood particularly "Izxy," who is certainly "blxxy" mak ing laughs. George Sidney, In the stel lar role. Is a comedian who merits the title. A. a Hebrew promoter of a ladies' emporium and haberdashery, and later a. a would-be hotel-owner, u Is positively a delight. Regarding the plot well, "It's like that myth of today Saint Nicholas "there ain't none." In the first act of the melee of fun, "Izzy's" grand em porium i. shown, and In th second hi. "Dlssy Hotel" take, up space to advantage. The whole show Is funny i - -i.. - r . . km.um Mr. Sid ney has been unselfish enough to have as hi. support capaoie piayers. He Is especially fortunate in having as hi. principal feminine .upport Carrie Webber, who sings pleasingly and dancea with delightful grace. Every, minute she 1. on the stage she holds .niinn And aside from her clever acting she 1. good to look upon. In addition to tnese two pnni:iwi large cast of other folk assist greatly. For Instance, there's Dick Hume, a. Whlfflngton Wolf, a "planner," who attends to everybody's affairs, to the everlasting amusement of all con cerned. Mr. Hume is reminiscent of Eudle Foy In look, and acting. Nick Basil. In th gul.e of a rapld-flr mes senger boy, 1. a riot of Joy, and John J. Magee aa a "rube" marshal and Frank Gibbons as a shark, with Walter Webber, a brother of the prima donna, doing th charaoter role of Sylvester Parbola, completes the masculine .up port. Th choru. 1. pretty, collectively and individually, and has choral abili ties. - ' All In all. "Blzy Ixxy" I. well worth while.
