While the ma terial and construction; of this spy story has met with far from critics in Norfolk, Richmond, Petersburg and Raleigh, a word about the presenting company will gite added confidence in connection with the coming presenta tion of "The Soldier Who Came Back." Milton Boyle, who assumes the role of Lieutenant "Bob" Wilson; has been seen with Blanche Bates in Darling of the Gods under the management of David Belasoo. Clay Cody, who is seen as the master spy, has recently played many southern cities with Ben Greet Players, also with Clifford Devereau's high class repertoire play ing on college grounds. Previous to last season Mr. Cody was for several seasons with Henry. W. Savage's "Everywoman" and with Mrs. Fiske. Viola Brown, who in this play is seett as "Bob's" sister, last toured the South in the company of Harry Beres ford, also with Robert Hilliard. "Ethel Hamrick, the secret service 'house-maid" of the play, was last season in vaudeville with Willard Mack's big act called "What Molly Knew." Willard Mack is the author of Tiger Rose, that is just finishing a solid year at the Belasco theatre, New York. Adelaide Coundre, who so effectively portravs the "waiting" mother, is no stranger to southern theatregoers. Al. H. WTilson having claimed her services for the past three years. Miss Coun dre (Mrs. Frank I. Frayne) was se lected for her peculiar fitness to the role of Mrs. Wilson. Henry Barker, who will be found, as the wary butler, has made a spe cialty of these difficult roles for a number of seasons as a member of the Cohan and Harris forces. J. J. U-l rich has for five years been on the Bejasco staff, while Elmer Walters Messrs. Shubert and also with John has with William A. Brady, the Tort, who has out five distinct suc cesses this season, among them Fiddlers Three, now being presented at the Belasco theatre, Washington. Judg ing from the personnel of the players in "The Soldier Who Came Back' as well as from the number of indorse ments given to the play by critics of sister cities together with commend able letters, the management has re ceived from mayors of several cities a most meritorious entertainment may be looked for by this company. This company will be seen at White's thea tre tonight. 3 FECIAL NOTICE Advertisements In this column mn le per word per insertion cash, unless you have an account with the paper., .each initial and flrure eount as words.
