Hoyt Would Rather Be Liked On Main Street Than Be Only Broadway Known

By WALTER D. HICKMAN |‘ ' I AIN STREET famous has its advantage of being only Broadway known. That I realized the other afternoon when I had a nice, comfortable chat with Leo Hoyt who plays the role of Solomon Levy in “Abie's Irish Rose” now in its fifth week at the Capitol. Hoyt told me that there is only one Broadway, but there are hundreds, even thousands of Main Streets in cities of this country. “A laugh is a laugh whether it is a Broadway theater or in a theater on Main Street in a city,” Hoyt said. “I know great actors who have never had a real Broadway success, but they have given their best to other cities and they are known and loved on the Main Streets of this country.” You know it makes me feel good to meet a splendid character actor who has the highest regard for the Main Streets of this country. So many.actors save their best only for Broadway, but it is Main Street which actually makes possible a future in the American theater. “When you realize that Hoyt has played the role of Solomon for nearly three years—fifteen weeks in. "Washington, D. C., twelve weeks in Baltimore, twenty-nine weeks in Philadelphia, thirteen weeks in Pittsburgh, Pa., twelve,weeks in Cincinnati, five weeks of three days and one week stands and five weeks in Dayton and five weeks here —it is apparent that Hoyt is better known nationally than many brief run Broadway players. Pleasure to Laugh "It does a fellow lot of good to get a laugh,” Hoyt said. “What is the purpose of our work in ‘Abie's Irish Rose.’ I have no,doubt that Miss Anne Nichols would yke to make a classic out of this play. But why work for a classic when a thing is making history in the theater? “ ‘Abie’ is a great old play. It is another ‘L'ncle Tom's Cabin,’ but more so. It will live and live. If it can bring the Jew and gentile 1 together on better terms it has done some good. “This play has proven an argument I have realized from my vaudeville experience. Hokum, clean fun, is what they want. The trouble with many plays is that they have limited j appeal—too highbrow. I do not j think I am a lowbrow. -. I don’t ' claim to be a literary man. We have enough sorrow and trouble in the j world without going to-the theater' to find some more. "When people leave ‘Abie’ after An evening in the theater they' go out laughing. The laughs grow in this show. Solomon Levy’ is the best part and the most enjoyable I have ever played because it is a true to life character. He is an old fellow that you are bound to love. His love for his son, Abie, if it gets over the footlights must ring true.” So you see that it takes a really j

jbig human being to play a big, huI man character. And that is the reason that Leo Hoyt’s conception of Solomon Levy ;is aiding “Abie’s Irish Rose” to i break all records not only at the Capitol but in length of run of any attraction at any local theater. -I- -I- -IMIDCxETS TOP NEW BILL AT PALACE Singer’s Midget Revue, being held over after doing big business for the first half of the week, is the featured offering on the week-end bill at the Palace.

wIXLJnL, From Los Angeles to Bangor Swift’s Premium Brand, with its reputation for uniform goodness, is of long standing. It has behind it more than thirty years of leadership in scientific curing and smoking. As early as 1889, Swift & Company’s products had received highest awards at international expositions. One of the four medals awarded at the Paris Exposition of 1889 was for Premium smoked meats, and another was for “Silverleaf” Brand Pure Lard. Premium Hams and Bacon were acknowledged the best then. They are better today. Laboratory control, constant, steady experiments, more careful selection, and painstaking care assure you of better meat with unfailing regularity. X f Premium Hams are uniformly mild and delicious whether purchased in Los Angeles, in Bangor, or in Miami The pre-eminent position of Swift’s Premium Hams and Bacon is indicative of the development of the packing industry—to which Swift & Company has contributed no small part in carrying to the table of the millions “More Meat and Better Meat” This service is performed at a profit from all sources averaging only a fraction of a cent per pound.
