              Sherwood Players Open
Summer Engagement at Park
Theatre Most Auspiciously
Awaiting the raising of the curtain at I In Wayne Nunn the Sherwood Players
the Hershey Park Theatre on Monday has an artist of great ability. In his
night where the Sherwood Players opened
the Summer season with the comedy
drama, "Under Cover" we said to ourself,
"We sincerely hope that the Sherwood
Players come up to expectations and will
be a credit to Hershey."
When the curtain' was lowered at the
close of the final act we were happy in the
fact that the Sherwood Players had come
up to expectations and would be a credit
to Hershey.
Personally, we consider the Sherwood
Players the best stock company that has
ever appeared at the Hershey Park Thea-tre.
Every member is an artist, and the
lovers of the drama will have the pleasure
of enjoying many a dramatic treat during
the present season.
The Sherwood Players is headed by
Robert A. Bennett, a real New York star,
who was featured in the Broadway success
"The Cat and the Canary" during the past
season. Mr. Bennett's every action and
every word, denotes the artist that he
really is. It is indeed a great pleasure to
see and to hear Mr. Bennett. Miss Sher-wood
is to be congratulated upon having
Mr. Bennett heading her company, and the
patrons of the Hershey Park Theatre are
to be congratulated upon having him with
us.
Clarence LeRoy needs no introduction
to Hershey, he having won his place in our
hearts through his most creditable work
last season. Mr. LeRoy makes an ideal
hero—having a splendid stage presence,
charming manners and a most pleasing
voice—and it is little wonder that he
creates such a flutter with the women's
hearts. Mr. LeRoy has just finished a
successful road engagement in "Strange
Bed Fellows", which, we are glad to say,
wul be seen at the Park Theatre in the
near future. Mr. LeRoy did some mighty
nice work in the third act on Monday
night
introductory on Monday night Mr. Ben-nett
stated that Mr. Nunri would make us
laugh and would make us weep. After
seeing Mr. Nunn's splendid performance
in "Under Cover" on Monday night we
believe that he will do it—we hope, how-ever,
that he won't be cast in too many sob
parts. Mr. Nunn does not stoop to the
burlesque level to put his characterizations
across—he has a finished and effective
style—which does the trick. We'll say
he's good, or else we are mighty mistaken
upon our first impressions.
Ralph Crabtree, who, between seasons,
in conjunction with Wesley Barney, con-ducts
the Delmonico on Deny Road, and
is becoming an honest-to-goodness Her-sheyite,
heard the call of the drama, and
answered it. Despite his hermitage Mr.
Crabtree lost none of his ability to make
good. In fact, he is like home-brew in
the cellar—gets better with age. He
received an ovation on Monday night on
his appearance, and he proceeded forth-with
to show that he was deserving of it.
The light comedian is Jack Kearney,
who has the knack of bringing a laugh.
Mr. Kearney did not have much to do in
"Under Cover", in which to judge his
humorous capabilities, but what little he
did have, he made the best of. Mr.
Kearney has many years of experience in
his role as comedian, and we have every
assurance that we will bring forth many a
hearty laugh before the season is over.
Mr. Kearney has had considerable exper-ience
in musical comedy, and can sing a
song with the best of them.
Last, but not least, come the lady
members of the company, which are Miss
Katherine M. Bauer, Miss Maye Blaisdell,
Miss Nina Howell and Miss Sherwood, all
artists, yes, everyone.
Miss Bauer is the eugenue. She is not
only mighty good to look upon, but can
wear gowns like a Gloria Swanson. Fur-thermore,
she plays her role with admirable
ease and facility. She has a pleasing
voice*, which carries well. We predict that
the Hershey Park Theatre audiences will
like Miss Bauer's work immensely.
In Miss Blaisdell we have another gifted
member of the Company. She is of the
petite type, but forceful , and What her
words and actions don't express* her eyes
do. We are sure we will see some splendid
characterizations enacted by Miss Blais-dell
during the coming season.
Miss Nina Howell works with Mr.
Nunn, and an incomparable combination
they make. Miss Howell seems to over-flow
with exuberancy, and when she makes
her appearance things take on a kindly
aspect. We know you will be for Miss
Howell.
As for Miss Sherwood we are all ac-quainted
with her ability and capability
she having played here for a short engage-ment
several years ago. Miss Sherwood is
managing the Sherwood Players, and she
is throwing her heart and soul into every
production. She is going to present for
our approval well known successes as
"Best People", "A Girl from Childs",
"Why Men Leave Home", "Strange Bed
Fellows", "The Alarm Clock" and "So
This is London." Her every endeavor is
to make the Sherwood Players a real civic
institution, her slogan being "For the
people, by the people."
The scenic effects are-capably supervised
by Mario Badillo, from one of the foremost
studios of New York City.
If you want to spend an enjoyable and
profitable evening, attend the Hershey
Park Theatre. The prices are within the
reach of everyone—the same as last year—
20 cents, 30 cents and 50 cents for reserved
seats. Tickets ordered in advance will be
held until 7.30, night of the performance.
We would suggest that you reserve your
favorite seat for the season. The doors are
open thirty minutes before each per-formance.

sweetheart of Katherine -Rogers, but in
reality is her best girl chum. Before
Clerk Brown can establish his identity,
he is whirled alxiut in some funn y situa-tions.
Lawrence Edwards plays the com-edy

Aslrologlcally, John Seitzinger , the
affabl e and efficient credit manager of (lie
Hershey Chocolate Co., was born under a

One of these brought htm forth much
profit—in (act , lie was rewarded much,
yea, it hundred score in fact , he had won

Mr. Seitzinger did not know this at the

Hershe y Sophomores
Entertain Seniors
Frida y Night
On Friday night the classes of 25 and
'27 assembled at the Hershey School and
the Sophomores entertained their class-cousin,
the seniors. The rooms were gaily
decorated in the school colors and numer-ous
sayings were hung on the walls. The
earlier part of the evening was spent in
playing games, singing and with the
presence of the Neopolitan Quartet, danc-ing
could not be withheld from.
The folks lingered long over the tables
which formed a huge "H". They were
heavily laden which even tempted the
track men who were in training. Here
they were well entertained , a class prophe-sy
composed and read by Lois Gilman led
some of the scholars to misfortunes, some
tragic endings and others very happy ones.
Pictures of the seniors, mounted on comical
forms were presented to their owners.
Victor DeAngelis played several selections
on his accordian , followed by speeches
called for by Roy Dundore, president of
the Sophomore class, through which means
the Seniors thanked their class-cousins' for
the "set-up."
The festivit y came to a close all too soon
although the seniors shall long remember
the gathering which closed their High
School term.
The chaperones were : Miss Gregg
Darrow, Miss Van Metre and Mr. and Mrs.
J. R. MacDonald.
Boy Scout Troop
Organized at
Lutheran Church
Realizin g the importance of the Boy
Scout movements as an organization which
stands out prominently in this country as
a basis for citizenship training and charac-ter
building, also that the Boy Scouts of
America recognizes the church as one of
the most important agencies for work with
boys, a trcxip of Boy Scouts is being or-ganized
under the direction of Holy
Trinit y Luthera n Church. The prelimi-nary
work and instruction of the hoys
leading up to the making of applica t ion for

under way and last Monday evening 10
enthusiastic boys assembled in the church
for registration. When these boys ac-quire
the tenderfoot rank of a scout the
charter will be presented and the boys will
be invested with the insignia of the Scouts.
This troop is being formed with the desire
to co-operate with other troops that have
alread y been organized In the town , hoping
that the Scout movement may touch all
the boys of the community.

The Smok estack ii
Nocturne
Oars are dipping in the lake,
I have you
Floating on the water:
Just we two.
Waterlily sweetly
Nods its drooping head,
Country all about us
Long has gone to bed.
Let them have their million*,
I have you
Floating on the water:
Just we two.
Isn't it the greatest
Fun to bill and coo,
I'm entirely satisfied
With just you.
Now the eastern sunbeams
Sport and softly play.
Now the life about us
Welcomes in the day,
Morning tokens dawning
Of another life.
Will you kiss me, kutie?
I'll not tell my wife.
Strickland Gillilan, the humorist, says
that in the days of his early manhood he
had such a big red mustache that, of a
morning when he was late, he could pour
a cup of coffee in it and drink the coffee on
the way to the train.
He didn t ask her
For her hand.
He had the dust,
But not the sand.
It will soon be June, and then people will
begin explaining why the groom is never
the best man at his wedding.
The Man with the Wooden Leg says that
when he was a little tike, the mam occupa-tion
of little boys was playing horse.
But nowadays, he says, all the kids are
busy changing tires on their automobiles.
Well, we got two good laughs out of the
mess occasioned by the oiling of the streets,
anyway. We were darned careful , though,
to laugh discreetly. We didn 't let either
of the fellows at whom we were laughing
catch us at it.
There was one fellow, we are not men-tioning
any names, who failed to carry a
spare tire. He was parked in front of our
palatial residence, doing his best to sepa-rate
a rear tire from the rim. Well when
he got through tinkering that tire he was
covered with oil from top to toe.
Oh yes. Then there was the fellow who
bought his straw hat plenty big. This
fellow hates a tight straw hat. He says it
makes him feel big headed. We wish you
could have seen this man laugh when a
gust of wind came along and rolled his hat
in the oil. Honestly we thought the old
boy would go into hysterics.
Fable
Once upon a time there was a little boy
who liked nothing better than to go to
school during the hot days of late May and
early June.
Overheard in the Hershey Quick Lunch.
"And Jim says to me, he says. Bill
Johnson drinks like a sponge. He just
soaks it up. Why, he says, says he, when
Bill dies all they'll need to do is pour him
right back in the barrel."
- Sunday's rain spoiled many a plan for a
frolic in the open.
As for Ours Truly, we kept discreetly,
"Under Cover," during the immersion.
The average person who heard some few
months ago that the old Hershey Garage
was to be made into an apartment house,
had no idea how much this building would
add to the beauty of the town.
Now, as it nears completion, it seems to
be the main topic of conversation.
In spite of the wonders worked by time
and change, says Doc Drake of Liberty
Cross Roads, who has made a study of
matters spiritual , there are some things
that remain the same through the cen-turies.
One of these is mere man's de-votion
to a good drink .
They say there is nothing new under the
sun, and the following would seem to sup-port
the saying.
You have all been unfortunate enough at
one time or another to have heard the
Agong Male Quartet render
And when I die
Don t bur y me at all,
Just pickle my bones
In alcohol.
With a bottle of booze
At my head and feet
My rest is sure
To be complete.
Here is what Omar Kyayy 'am, the
Persian poet of eleven hundred something
or other, wrote in defense of Al Smith's
beer and light wine idea.
Ah, with the grape my fading life provide,
And wash my body whence the life has
died ,
And in a Windin g sheet of Vine-leaf
wrapt ,
So bur y me by some sweet Garden side.
That e en my buried Ashes such a Snare
Of ixirfume shall fling up Into the Air ,
As not a True Believer iwsslng by
But shall be overtaken unaware.
Last Summer Cy Todd of Skunk's
Corners was laid up during haying with
the rheumatiz'. So young Jim Todd and
his sister, Augusta , had to do all the work.
Says young Jim, "By the jin ks, I.
certainl y did get disgusted with Augusty
when we was hayin ' last summer. She
was loadin ' the ha y and I was a-pitchin ' it
on. And sir, just because I pitched a
bumblelxie's nest up on the wagon, slit
jumped right down lind ran for the house,
a-bawlln' like all-glt-out. That certainly
made me disgusted with Augusty."
Calvin C<x)lidge tells a story alxiut a
man who refused a dish of strawlx-rry ice
cream because he was afraid the Ice cream
would destroy his taste for prunes.
That story makes this pleasure loving
generation stop and think , doesn't it. But
at the same time, had the gentleman l>cen
offered , instead of strawberry Ice cream,
Htrawlxirry shortcake with cream.we doubt
like sixty if he would have passed It up.

Hershe y Baseball
Team Wins
Opening Game
Hershey opened its home season on
Saturday afternoon on the Park diamond
by defeating the Reading Olivets by the
score of 7 to 5. The Reading team proved
themselves worthy opponents and got to
Storm for a pair of singles in the opening
frame. Gaul, the first man up, lined out a
single to left but a minute later was caught
napping off first by a quick throw by
Storm. With two gone Trupp singled and
after Carpenter received a free ticket to
first Reading threatened to score but the
best Kalbach could do was to fly out to
center. Neither side scored until the
third inning, when C. Gaul again opened
up with a double to left center. Bryan
struck out but Trupp singled, and in trying
to score Gaul was nabbed at the plate.
Carpenter walked. Kalbach drove a liner
through the box which Storm managed to
knock down but could not field and in the
mixup that ensued both runners scored.
Storm then passed Hodgkins and Deitrick
bunted, but Alwine threw high over
Smith's head and Kalbach scored.
Hershey broke into the run column in
the fourth when Shaub singled and scored
on Albert's double. Although none were
out Hershey was unable to score further
and Markey died on second. Hershey
took the lead in the sixth by scoring three
runs on singles by Ream, and Heverling a
double by Smith and an error by Kalbach.
The Olivets knotted it up again in the
seventh, but Hershey got to Adams in
their half and scored three more runs on
hits by Shaub and Allwine assisted by
errors and good baserunning. Hershey
scored again in the eighth and seemed to
have the game sewed up but the Olivets
came back and scored another in the ninth
making the final score 7 to 5.
The batting of C. Gaul, the visitors third
baseman and the fielding of Ream for the
home team were the fea tures.

Baseball Picku ps
The infield was greatly strengthened by
the addition of Ream at short, "Punk
made two great stops of almost sure hits
and on one <x.'casion nailed his man sit first,
Shaub is hittin g the old apple often and
hard this season. He got the first hit off
the Reading pitcher , which paved the way
for Hershey 's first run.
Those Reading Ixiys sure put up a nice
brand of baseball , playing a strong game
throughout , except lor a little lcxisu fielding
In the eighth.
C. Gaul , the Reading third sucker
carried off the batting honors for the day,
hitting for an average of 1,000, Out oi
five tri ps to the plate lie had a double, two
singles and two walks. Even tho he wore
"specks" he sure had his eye on the pill.
Smitt y" played a nice game at first for
Hershey and came thru with two hits just
when they were needed.
Storm seemed to get better as the game
progressed, Although touched up freely
In the early innin gs lie settled and pitched
a nice heady game.
What 's the matter with the Hershey
baseball fnna. Don't you want gcxxl base-ball
in Hershey? To have a winnin g
team your supixirt is necessary. Let 's
show the lx>ys we're behind them all the
time.
Not one base was purloined by the
Olivets. After Storm caught the lirat man
to get on, off first by IiIh quick throw , his
team-mates were wary of getting too far
away from the bag.
Some of the Hershey rootera seem to
enjoy rotmting the home players. This is
very poor sportmatmhip to say the least.
If you can t boost don't knock. Who
wants to l>c a knocker anyhow? -
REV. PAUL M. KINPORTS TO
PREACH BACCALAUREATE
SERMON
Rev. Paul M. Kln ports, pastor of the
Lutheran Church, will preach the Bac-calaureate
Sermon to the graduatin g class
at a union meeting of all the churches,
Sunday evening. May 31, at 7.30 o'clock,
In the If erehey Central Theatre,
"The Broken Butterfl y"
at Park Theatre
This Week
The Sherwood Players will present "The
Broken Butterfly" at the Hershey Park
Theatre on Thursday, Friday and Satur-day
evenings of this week, with matinee on
Saturday afternoon at 2.30 o'clock.
The story of "The Broken Butterfly "
deals with Nora, the young and beautiful
wife of Philip Hale, a wealthy horseman.
Fascinated with dancing and society she is
fast falling under the influence of his half-brother,
Claude Hale, a handsome, bril-liant
but unscrupulous artist and club-man,
whose boast is his "conquest of the
fair sex". Nora bitterly rebels when
Philip forbids her dancing at a charity ball
in a daring and bizarre Butterfly costume
designed by Claude, and af ter he leaves for
the stables to ascertain the condition of
three of his blooded horses which have
been mysteriously poisoned, she steals
away and meeting Claude goes to the
dance in the forbidden gown. Philip
returning home and learning of her de-fiance
decides to wait up for an under-standing.
After a strong and telling inter-view
Nora, completely subdued, retires
just as Claude arrives expecting her to go
away with him, and is conlronted by
Philip armed with the knowledge of his
treachery, his guilt of poisoning his horses
to financially cripple him, and the fact that
he has deserted a wife he secretly married
who is now ill, penniless and alone in New
York with an infant child. Claude facing
exposure and possible arrest takes the
easiest way out, and Nora, though having
been foolish has really done no wrong is
forgiven by Philip and reinstated in his
home and heart.
A "conditional engagement" between
Nora 's young sister and a dashing New
Yorker furnishes high class comedy of an
unusual nature. "The Broken Butterfly "
was written by Mabel S. Keightley, well
known magazine writer and author of
several successful plays. She will be with
the Sherwood Players all season and will
help with the production of many plays.

Hershe y Park Dancing
Pavilion a Most
Delightful Place
Beautiful Hershey Park will make more
than a feature of its dancing this season,
and judging from the attendance at the
dances held thus far, all records will be
broken.
The lar ge dancing pavilion has been
very artistically decorated by Messrs.
Fred Bolts and Frank Edris, and now
resembles a ball room in Sinbad's palace
more than a public dance floor. The color
scheme is blue and yellow. Sus|)endcd
from the canopied ceiling are huge lanterns.
Around the hall , from pillar to pillar , are
trellis of wisteria vines. These decora-tions
make the dancing pavilion a very
delightful place.
Dancin g will be held every Wednesday
and Saturday evenings, and the best of
orchestras have heen secured for the
season.

Commencement
Exercises to be Held
in Convention Hall
The Annual Commencement will be
held Thursday evening, June 4th, at 8 p.
m. in the Convention Hall, located in the

This fact should receive special attention
as the place to hold the Commencement
had to be changed due to the fact that the
auditorium for the new Junior-Senior High
School is not nearly completed. Then, too,
the Park Theatre is not available because
the Sherwood Players have leased it for the
summer beginning Monday, May 25th.
These conditions then leave no alternative
and the Commencement must be held in
the Hershey Park Convention Hall.
The following members of the class will
appear on the program: Valedictorian,
Alice Hall ; salutatorian, Ellen Leithiser;
oration, Kenneth Stuckey; oration, Russel
Stuckey.
