GOOD SUMMER BILL AT KEITHS THIS WEEK Beatle Clayten's Dancing Act -la Headline Feature Keith's It is n bit hard te pick an especial "hendlincr" en the program this week. Typographically, honor seem te belong net undeservedly te the electric and esoteric dancer, BeKSle Clayten. She has a company of ten, counting a jazs bend and four partners, as vehemently agile as herself or near ly se. There are five or six numbers te her act, which for some reason or maybe for no reason Is billed ns "The Bex Party." There Is one very pretty cos tume ballet, a great deal of acrobatic walulng nnd a generous turning of handsprings. There is also between nnd during dances much ballad singing, sentimental and sardonic, by members of the jazz band. The audience teemed best nlenwri with the antics of Will Maheney, who appears en the program under the cap. tien. "Why Be Serious?" Al the end of his tvtentv-five minutes he leaves the question wide open. He is a paredist, pantemimlst, dnncer nnd methodical lunatic of no little art. He was 're called for several encores. Aileen Stanley, whose native dialect seems te be that of the Eastern Shere, though she is equally at case with three or four ethers, sings a number of chnrncter songs with nn appealing cyn icism, helped out en occasion by a modest voice from the wings. Glebe There's lets of healthy laugh ter in the show and much of It is aroused by Ernest Evans and company in n sketch called "Wedding Bells." The act ia timely and unfolds n geed story. Rollicking songs of the moment are offered in Rey Harrah'a "Review" which nlse scores. Other acts en the bill lnclude Jacksen and Craven, Geerge Maye and company. James Kennedy and cempnny. Laurle Ordway, comedienne, and Alice Kerlcy, mimic. Nixon The big bit of the show in scored by Heward Langerd and Ina Fredericks, both musical comedy fa vorites, who offer u bright nnd cheery skit called "Shopping."

A geed harvest of laughs Is garnered by jack Baxter and Lillian Perter in s skir called "Neighbors''; Hawthorne nnd Cooks, comedians, fellow the comedy nncc: Archie unu uertie tails thrill. nnd Geerge Gautier, the blind French boy singer, also wins favor. There are many excellent features in the pictures offered. Allegheny All the things which go te mnkc up a geed show are found in the bill offered.

Others en the bill nre Ab Ab eott and White, niuslcul ; Maslevu, dnncer, and the Santingo trio. "Fas cination," with Mae Murray, Is the film feature. Nixon's Grand Eddie Cnrr headed the bill in a comedy sketch, "The New Office Bey." He wns ably assisted by n large company. Ruth Budd furnished some thrills with aerial feats.

BELASCO PROMISED STARDOM TO LILA TO STOP HER TEARS ONE evening about eleven years age David Belasee, the famous stage producer, gave bis watch, his Mick pin nnd his diamond ring te a young lady. The gift was a bribe, but it didn't work. She kept en crying. New the reason for her flew of tears, tears that disturbed tlw great BclaMe and gave him a dramatic situation ht couldn't' control, was Just this; The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty te Children hnd refused te let her per form en a stage In Rochester that eve ning, Just because she was only seven yenrs old. Prevention of cruelty, in deed! Perpetration of cruelty, lather, for the jeung lady could have receded no mere lienrtlcas blew. When she was Informed thnt she could net appear In. the Temple The ntre alie refused te eat her supper. Shortly nftcrward her tencher-inuhe, who accompanied her en her trnels, could net find her. A general alarm was sent out and she was disceveied in nn unfrequented dressing room, tub bing bh though her heart would break. It se happened thnt Mr. Belasee was In Rochester thnt evening rehearsing n try-out for u new production, llis fccrretary informed him. He hnd met the jeung girl. He wns interested in her, m he dropped his work nnd tried te eemtbrt her. The dlnmeml ring didn't Rtep the tears, the watch and the btickpiii were equally futile, se lu tried something else. "Don't cry, little one," he told her, "I will make you a star the day jeu are sixteen years old." The effect was magical. She was content. That was back In 1011. The stnrdein came even before Mr. Bclnsce had prom prem ised. Jesse Lasky discovered her before ; her sixteenth birthday rolled around j nnd sent for her, nnd from "Cuddles" I Ijce ahe became Lila I.ce.
