EVANS PRESENTS
DRAMATIC ECHOES
? AT EAST NORMAL
. . . 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. Richard, Duko of Gloucester.
, Scene 1: Tho plotting of slaughter,
f, Scene 2: After the murder of King
Henry.

AT' THE LIBERTY,
Once again Ruth Chatterton es
tablishes her right to be considered
the first dramatic actress of her gen
eration upon the screen, by virtue of
her performance as the star of "Lilly
rurner," which First National, pre
jents for the first time locally at thf
Liherty theatre Thursday night. f
It Is not too much to assert that
no other star could have equalled her
astounding delineation of the soiled,
bedraggled queen of the carnivals and
sideshows who emerges, through trag
edy, to a loftiness of self-sacrifice
that brought' hundreds of plaudits
from the spectators.
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.
