Hy Hess Duko . Slipping easily into tho characters Which ho portrayed, Richard B, Ev ans, of Pendloton, presented "Dram atic Echoes" from the ages Tuesday night at tho Normal school. Indt vldually each, of the eight characters wirlch he depicted was excellently pictured, but collectively the pro gram was a bit too heavy for ono ove nlng, leaving the audience moved but limp and exhausted as the curtalrut closed on the presentation of Oedipus from "Oedipus Tyrannus," a Greek tragedy of Sophocles. Highlights In the program were the characterizations of Richard, the de formed Duke of Gloucester, in Shake- . spcore'a "Henry VI;" Ivan Ivonovltch Tolkocliov, In "The Tragedian In Spite of Himself, " from the Russian Ghekov; and Oedipus Rex. vJloyd Jackson deserves a part of the pi also also for the effectiveness oi tho recital. Tho staging was superb With the lighting effects contribut ing a weird beauty to tho horrible ''Oedipus Tyrannus," a romantic aura for tho balcony scene from "Romeo and Juliet," and others In kind, tho stugo technician catching cleverly tho mood of the piece. i. Only ono sot of curtains was used for the entire recital, different effects being obtained through tho color unci pay of the lights. - Between each. of tho numbers, Mr. Evans sketched tho background for tho next character. The costumes, designed by Mrs. h. Warner, of Eu gene, were appropriate ta tlie charac ters which Mr. Evans so ably repre sented. ..The entire program Included: I.

In its tremendous sweep, Ruth Chatterton's "Lilly Turner" recalls no other performance save one or two of the star's most outstanding suc cesses. It ranks In power with her "Madame X," though there is no son In this story, to lend the unique note of pathos that only such a situation as the one climaxing tho famous French play can give.
