Installation of officers of Gardi ner chapter Order of Rainbow Girls will be held in the Masonic hall in Gardiner on Monday, Feb. 3, at 8 p. m., instead of on Thurs day, January 23, as originally planned. By MARGARET RAY A black-hearted scoundrel who would turn a widow and her love ly daughter from their only shel ter and who entices an upright young man onto the downward path of drunkenness and dis honesty meets his just fate amid hisses from the audience in the return engagement of "The Drunkard," which opens a five day run at the Very Little Theatre Tuesday evening . at 8 p. m. Lawyer Crlbbs (Ajax McGurk) who sadly confesses amid threats of revenge that "he was born in Corvallis and voted for Roosevelt" (not in the script) easily walks away with dramatic honors for his evil presence pervades the plot even when he is not actually on the stage. Sharing honors with the villain are Kenneth Griffith as Edward Middleton.who plays a convincing drunkard, Adele Griffith, first as the beautiful daughter and later as Mrs. Middleton who mourns piteously in a wretched garret while her husband carouses in the bar room, and "Johnny-on-the-spot" Ethan Newman who in the dramatic role of the drunkard's brother, arrives just in time to save the heroine from the clutches of the villain. His extemporan eous line in an aside to the aud ience, "what do you suppose this old rascal wants now, besides an airport brings down the house. Lucille Urey as little Julia quite steals the hearts of the audience with her tearful rendition of "Father, Dear Father, Come Home with Me Now," while Genevieve Tugman plays to perfection her tin-type role of a penniless widow, Mrs. Wilson. Although the play Is a remark able take-off on the melodramas of the gay '90's and keeps the audience in suspense until the galy painted curtain falls with a clatter on the happy finale, the outstanding part of the evening's program is provided by the curtain acts, described on the hand bill as "lively olio acts with the most stupendous array of talent ever assembled on one stage." The "beef trust" with silk stockinged legs, black satin cos tumes and plumed bonnets cavort to the naughty "Can Can" and "Ta Rah Rah Rah Boom de ay," while individual members, Mary Staton, Gerda Brown, Daisy Hamlin, Plrk- i ko Paasikivi, Laura Bryant and Dorothy Durkee display their tal ents in "The Good Old Summer Time," "After The Ball," "Heaven Will Protect a Woiklng Goil," and seven other equally-amusing num bers, Mary Graham adorned in slinky black satin appropriately renders "Frankie and johnny" while Director Delbert Faust, who in cidentally does a fine job, takes solo honors in the "Drunkard's Dance." The five-night performance has been planned by VLT to accom modate those Eugeneans who were turned away from last year's show. Persons wishing to view the re peat performance are urged to make their reservations at once as tickets are going fast. As an "extra" treat free cider, peanuts and popcorn will be served during the intermission to guests through the courtesy of the VLT. Real Raid Technique BOSTON. Jan. 28. UP) This city's police believe in being not only efficient but original. In raiding a dice game, one of the policemen lit his pipe, blew smoke into the keyhole of the gambling room. One of the players cried "fire," all of them rushed out the door into the arms of the raiders, Two weeks ago. one of the raid ing officers gained entrance into a gambling game by "meowing" outside the door like a cat.
