Comedy Opens at English's At 8:30 Tonight.

“Arsenic and Old Lace,” one of the outstanding comedies of the season, will open at English’s at

There will be a matinee at 2:30 p. m. tomorrow. The showing will conclude with an 8:30 curtain tomorrow night. The scene of the play is a quiet house in Brooklyn where two Vic-torian-style old ladies operate a rest home for tired, old gentlemen. The rest cure is arsenic and the corpses pile up in the cellar under the pen of a policeman who is attempting to write a play that will knock people dead. Laura Hope COrews and Effie Shannon, two veterans of the stage, play the Brewster sisters. Miss Crews played the possessive mother in Sidney Howard’s “Silver Cord.” In 1029, she went to Hollywood— not to act—but to coach . Norma Talmadge for the “talkies.” Veteran of 100 Matinees Effie Shannon has played 1000 matinee performances on Broadway. Her first New York success was with Robert Mantell in “Robert Elsmere” at the Union Square theater. Erich von Stroheim, a "sinister character in the play, has long played characters of that type. In World War I he portrayed the Hun and he is one of the theatergoing public's favorite villains. Henry Sharp, in the role of Dr. Herman Einstein, is an expert mathematician and a former teacher of mathematics at the Brooklyn Boys’ high school. He and Mr. von Stroheim have been killing 12 men eight times weekly (including matinees) for two years. Mr. Sharp and Howard Lindsay,

“Okay, now let me see your social security card.” It said Jai Leta. She told me it was Jai Leta who paid her in--come tax to Uncle Sam, too. “I picked it out of the air one day in Brooklyn,” she said. That's how I got it.” I thought I'd trap her later on.

More Life Story

WE WENT THROUGH her life story. She was born in Providence, R. I. I forgot to ask when. Just as I got to spring that one on her, she yanked up a trouser

of her slacks to show where she hurt herself when she fell down the stairs backstage at Gainesville, Fla. I couldn't see a. mark. Anyway, her mother was opposed to her going on the stage. So she went on the stage. She said she wanted to get into radio and I was getting ready to probe her secret ambitions when she pulled up the other pantleg to show where she had once injured her knee. But the knee wasn't all she injured that time. She gave the rest of the injured area a resounding slap and we went on into some more life story. She told me she went into burlesque and night club work in Brooklyn and Jersey spots. Her first burlesque spot was in a theater in Brooklyn. “Wait,” she said, “Tl spell it for you. Oh, Francine!' How do they spell the Webras? Was ‘it W-E-B-R-A-8?” Someone in .the next room said, “Yes, that’s it.” » # #

Make It Minnie Glutz

I COULD SEE I was getting no place. So I went after the name, again. I asked her what her parents name was. “My mother and dad were on the stage years ago,” she said, “as Murray Bernard and Erma Harris.” “I see” I said. their real names?” “They were known as Bernard and Harris.” So we went in for some more

she liked the strip tease better than the other forms of burlesque and she looked down at the floor and said, no, but that it was all right. The I pulled my trump card. “What does . your mother call you?” I shouted at her. “Jai Leta,” she said. “Say, if you want to give me a name, make it Minnie Glutz. Only don’t print it because, honest, it is definitely not my real name.” “Okay,” I said, “so now you'll tell ‘me your real name or it'll be Minnie Glutz.” She stretched luxuriously, slapped her thigh and crossed her legs. I got her life story, all right. But I never did catch the name.
