Cohan's Hit at Bonstelle.
"The Song and Dance Man," typi-
cal of all Cohan's writings, which
opens at the Bonstelle Playhouse
Monday, March I, is of peculiar con-
struction. It begins with the arrest-
ing of John Farrell, commonly known
as "Hap," for a holdup. Actors, man-
agers, the police and newspaper men
are involved and the general conclu-
sion is that Hap is a real fellow who
departed with his last hundred dol-
lars to help out a struggling artist
in trouble.
it is a play that defies comparison,
yet an entertainment of real quali-
ties, and should give the Bonstelle
company further opportunity to dem-
onstrate its versatility, particularly
Donald Cameron, who will have the
role of "The Song and Dance Man,"
a small-timer, a cheap "hoofer," but
the stage was in the blood. Then he
had a chance for success in business.

"Kosher Kitty Kelly" Coming.
According to advance reports, any-
one who has seen "Abie's Irish Rose"
should not have to be coaxed to see
her musical twin sister, "Kosher
Kitty Kelly," for if you laughed at
"Abie's Irish Rose," you'll find your-
self humming "Kitty's" catchy melo-
dies of Leon Ds Costa's "Melting
Pot" of the east side of New York set
to music, in three acts and six scenes,
which opens at the Garrick Theater
Sunday night, Feb. 215, with the en-
tire New York cast and production,
for an engagement of one week with
the usual matinees. The engagement
will be the first outside of New York,
where it had a highly successful run
of over eight months.
Among the song hits are the fol-
lowing: "I Want to Dance With
You," "Dancing Toes," "I'll Cuddle
Up to You," "Where Can We Be In
Love?" "What's in Store for You?"
and the swinging waltz number,
"Kosher Kitty Kelly," sung by Miss
Nell Roy, who was last seen herein
"Sally, Irene and Mary."

MOSCOW.—(J . T. A.)—Yurchen-
lco, leader of pogrom bands, will be
executed for murdering Jews during
the civil war in Soviet Russia. At
his trial, which ended in Zhitomir, the

him. For several years during the
civil war he terrorized the entire dis-
trict and was responsible for many
massacres of Jews In that region.
