J&lrl,_ ... Tn.. Pne·~ ... A.:ea laun··· ,.._._ ·I· II·· ,The crowd that attended· the opening of the Varsity Monday under Lobliner and Trinz met surprise aftet surprise. First of all the exterior is different, as you have probably noticed. Floodlights c~ver the outside walk and strings of colored lights decorate the canopy. New signs have been installed both inside and out, and while they are movie ads, they are pleasing .to the eye in an artistic measure. The lobby is brightened up, ~nd - the interior foyer was actually beautiful on Monday night. Flowers, sent by Evanston merchants, were in large baskets placed throughout the foyer and new curtains covered the glass panels separating it and the auditorium. New red plush carpeting was on the stairways, and the ushers were all dressed in tuxedos. The program itself was a splendid one and the musical accompaniment was strongly emphasized. The new Varsity Salon orchestra under the direction of Josef Lichter is remarkable in its ability to present real music. Several solos were featured. An expressive organ solo ~as conducted by Louis Lohman. "West Point" was certainly dt"c;erving of its being cast as the inaugttral attraction. It is practically the funniest comedy the Varsity or any other North Shore theater has played in several months, and William Haines' work is capital. rhe Varsity's stage was rearranged as well as the entire auditorium and it is really an artistic and beautiful place. Success is easily spelled out under its new management and we all wish them the best of luck. The Varsity's a new place ! . -Walter Kerr HONOR ROBERT HARPER A congratulatory dinner for Robert Harper, son of Supt.]. R. Harper, who is graduating from New Trier High school this year, was given by members of the Wilmette Public school faculty at the Howard school this week. This is the architect's conception of how the model electric farm being established by the Public Service company will look when completed. Building already is under way on a large tract near Mundelein in Lake county. Lee A. Huson, formerly of Volo, will manage the farm for the company. The E. 0. T. bridge club of Wilmette will meet at the home of Mrs. Joseph G. Lang at 7300 North Hoyne avenue in Chicago next Tuesday afternoon. Luncheon will be served.
