Forty-Five Minutes from Broiidwny."
The Churns.
It Is n interesting fact, which has
been remarked by only a few of the
theatergoers among the thousands
who have seen "Forty-Five Minutes
froam Broadway," which will be at
the Auditorium on next Tuesday and
Wednesday, October 8 and 9, in the
three successful years of Its existence,
that there has beon a complete ab
sence of fleshy chorus girls from the
ttractive chorus which has sung the
few famous songs of the piece. They
have inpariably been slender, sylph
like but well formed creatures whose
embonpoint has been missing. This
has been a great source of interest to
other managers, and two theatrical
men were recently discussing the phe
nomenon as ine girls passed them on
their way to the theater for the mat
inee performances- "Why do you sup
pose that is?" asked the first. "Why
do all the chorus girls in this Leigh
show look so well toroomed. so well

Delia Clarke In "introduce Me.'!
Of the new comedy, "Introduce
Me," which conies to the Auditorium
on next Thursday, October 10, for an
engagement ot one night, an exchange
says: "It would be hard to imagine
the wants of a theatergoer whose ev
ery wish and expectation was not ful
ly justified last night by ihe play 'In
troduce Me.' It Is in no sense picking
up a stereotyped phrase for conveni
ence to say that every member of the
company was an artist. 'Introduce
Me' is u cleverly conceived story and
added interest is furnished by the
fact that its author, Delia Clarke,

of people who easily portray their
part of the story in a manner that

tcrpretation.
" 'Introduce Me' is new, Jt is bright,
original, serious and funny. It is not
overdone, but Just right. You can't
lose interest, it catches you up and
carries you.along. The very Intensity
of the play Is humorous, stirring you
to sympathy and laughter almost in
the same breath. It is unique in A
class of comedy by itself and alto-
