"The Show Off," by George Kelly
Is the best comedy ever written by
an American," said Heywood Braun,
outstanding dramatic critic. "Such
human personality aa Is portrayed
in this play has never been made
more vivid, more truthful and more
complete In the American theater.'
Many favorable comments have
been made by Mr. Braun on this
comedy of George Kelly, famous
playwright, to be presented by Na
tional Collegiate Players of Oregon
Agricultural college at the Capitol
theater Thursday, Marcn zz.
The plot centers around the show
off, Aubrey Piper, a loud-mouthed
character whose talkativeness and
cockiness get him Into many trou
bles. He is a $30-a-weck clerk who
gives the impression that he can run
everything, In I act, a financial
wizard. Pate tries to change his
habit of thought, but the Aubrey
Piper whom we see at the close of
the play la precisely tne jame per
son who stalked into the first act.
Mr. Braun believes the character
of Aubrey Is no creature within the
wings of the theater. He has been
wrenched from life he has bumped
against us in the subway and prob
bly lives in the flat Just across the
hall. Aubrey brings to us the real
ization of the toughness of human
fiber the truth that personality en
dures the blows of circumstance.
"George Kelly builds up the story
around Aubrey Piper by countless
Bmall strokes," said Mr. Braun. "By
degrees he opens up the heart of
t: j man. There he stand liar,
braggart, egoist, but the very con
sistency of his faults colors them
with magniflcance. Be yourself,
Mother Fisher,' cried Aubrey to his
mother-in-law In time of stress and
It Is the slogan which ho took to
heart. There Is no need for anyone
to say 'Be yourself, Aubrey he
never Is tempted for a moment to be
anyone else."
UNIQUE PENALTY
PAID BL YOUTH
Muskegon, Mich., Mar. 21 (P)
John Yokubones, 10, has discharged
his first obligations under a sent
ence given him a few days ago by
Probate Judge Ruth Thompson to
serve as a "big brother" to two
mall boys he made fatherless two
weeks ago when his car struck and
killed Ployd Torrey. The youth,
who works at a bench in a shop
here, took several bundles, Includ
ing toys, to the boys, Gene Torrey,
Blx, and Paulie Torrey, eight years
old, and promised to visit them
again soon. He visited them at
the home of their grandmother,
Mrs. Jennlo Torrey, with whom
they are now making their home,
and saw them for the first time.
He came away expressing a de
sire to "do all I can for them." The
woman probate Judge, who refused
to permit prosecution of the youth,
sentenced him to visit the father
less children at least once every two
weeks for two years and to spend
at least $400 of his earnings for
their support during that period.
The unusual sentence is regarded
us an experiment and Is attracting
widespread attention here.
DIDN'T WANT DOLE
Stratford, Eng. (LP) The dole of 25
ih 11 lings, about $5, which the British
government weekly distributes to
each unemployed person, apparently
holds no appeal for one workless
man here. The man'j mother re
cently complained that, although her
son had been living with her several
years, he failed to give her any
money. She told the Judge that her
son was "too lazy to get up and go
for the dole". The probation officer
was instructed to see to It that the
on collected his bounty each week
and turned It over to his mother.

FRIEND OF MANY
PRESIDENTS IS
SALEM VISITOR
Presidents, royalty, leading figures
in the world s activities and most of
the interesting places of the world
have a personal interest for C. Bax
ter Peyton, now in Salem on business
connected with the Groller society.
New York, of whlcr he is vice presi
dent and general manager. Included
in Its varied educational features,
the society publishes the "Book of
Knowledge" for children.
Peyton has had an Intimate ac
quaintance with elpht presidents of
the united States, from Benjamin
Harrison to Calvin Coolid, being
detailed at the White House during
the administrations of McKinley and
Roosevelt while serving under Major
Ricnard Sylvester of the metropoli
tan ponce department or the District
of Columbia.
The visitor's physique is such as
to withstand his strenuous life as a
globe trotter, educationalist and
lecturer, for he stands six feet three
inches. His acquaintance with the
"big roiks or the world started when
he was a lad of 12 and serving as a
U. S. senate page under the admin
istration of President Harrison.
After leaving the police department
Peyton became assistant superin
tendent of the national bureau of
criminal Identification at the Louis
iana Purchase exposition and was
later assistant chief of the secret
service at the Lewis & Clark exposi
tion In Portland and as chief of the
secret service under Capt. Henry
Carpenter, of the U. S. Marine corps,
guarded President Roosevelt at the
Jamestown exposition.
Peyton's valuable album collection
of photographs and autograiVs of
dignitaries reads like an edition of
Who's Who , including such Euro
pean and American characters as
the King of Belgium, Roumanian
Queen, Crown Prince of Sweden,
Crown Princess Louise, Admiral
Beatty, Marshal Foch, General
