Reviews of the Week STAGE It wasn"t but a few years ago that a young lad by the name of Johnny Weaver attended the local schools in Winnetka. No one, so far as my intimate knowledge goes, ever pinned any gold stars on his report cards. School seemed to be the least ·of his troubles. Then after a lapse of a few years there appears a much heralded book of poems called "In American" written by Mr.,ohn V. A. Weayer, and ~very on,~ o them sounded JUSt like Johnny. Not. long after ·.

"The Woman on the Jury," which comes to the Hoyburn theatre June 9, 10 and 11, gives some impression how the woman serving on juries carry ~ut their civic duties. . Sylvta Breamer, in the title role, gaves the portrayal of a young married woman who discovers that the girl on trial had slain the mao who had nearly ruined her own life. Some interesting episodes take place which show the reaction of a woman juror. The picture was directed by Harry 0. Hoyt and in addition to Sylvia Breamer there are Lew Cody Mary Carr and other prominent m~vie stars in the cast. On the same program will be Buster Keaton in "Sherlock, Jr.," The frozen faced Buster is the laugh provoker as a small town theatre operator. parinar pupils for ballet work. ly a branch of the acbool hu opened in Evanaton in reapoue . demands from the north shore · .. manities.

For the mOlt part it's an enjoyable affair, that ·is, if you favor crooks, counts, t~efts, secret service work, etc. · _ As its title might implr, the story concerns the activities o a polished erook, who, working by himself and for himself, has numerous thnlling experiences. But there is a government for~la involved in the plot and a gang most anxious to obtain it that they may sell it to some other government for the high price such docuatents always bring 10 the movies. = Then there is the beautiful young lady who works wonders, especially with the "Lone Wolf." At the end, when everything is satisfactorily explained, they decide they were made for each other. ·As already suggested, there are a number of very satisfactory thrills, including a bit of airplane fightina that does very welt. Jack Holt portrays the "Lone Wolf" and is quite convincing.
