Popular Comedian to
Sing at the Craterian
Thera is no more popular star be
fore the public than Sir. Harry Lau
der, and the announcement of his

Monday night, . November 31, has
aroused a preliminary interest that Is
notable. The present tour Is one of

Interesting fact that he popularly of
this globe-trotting singing comedian
constantly grows with the years.
Lauder began his career as a mere
performer' what is known In Eng
land as a "comic:" but he has long
ceased to be that. With the years,
and his varied experience there has
come to him the emotional as well
as the fun-creating development of
a great artist.
This year's new songs have had the
advantage of a tryout during Lau
der's recent South African tour, and
will be utilized in the local engage
ment. They are credited with being
songs witn tne same "touch and go"
that made and have alwavs made "I
Love a Lassie" and ""She's Ma
Daisy" exceptionally popular.
As In -other seasons. Sir Harrr will

scarcely $10,000 In cash has been re
ceived, his office said today.
