WHO'S WHO in the CAST 

HENRY HULL, born in Louisville, Kentucky, where his father edited the Courier Journal, prepared at Columbia for an engineering career which abruptly ended on the day when he made his stage debut twenty years ago in the cast of Edward Sheldon's "The Nigger." His past successes include "The Man Who Came Back," "Thirty-Nine East," "The Cat and the Canary," "The Youngest" and "In Love With Love." One of his most outstanding performances was in "Lulu Belle," opposite Lenore Ulric. Recently he has been seen as Machiavelli in "The Grey Fox" and in "The Ivory Door," "Veneer" and "Michael and Mary."

SIEGFRIED RUMANN arrived in America from Germany soon after the war, which had left him as a lieutenant with three bullet wounds and little else. Before the war Mr. Rumann had acted at the State Theatres at Bielfeld, Stettin and Koenigsburg, and with the coming of the armistice he accepted an engagement at the Altenburg Theatre. His first years here were spent singing in a cabaret in Yorkville, playing German stock at the Irving Place Theatre and acting as a singing waiter in an Eighty-sixth Street beer garden. His first English-speaking part was in "The War Song." This resulted in his being engaged last season to play the suave, soft-spoken German officer in "The Channel Road" and the doctor in "Half Gods."

Camels brought cheer to good King Lear

Members of the cast by Tony Sarg

Ay, every inch a smoke:
So, Camels; thou shalt ever be my choice;
Thy tender hearted nature does not give
Thee o'er to harshness: It is not in thee, sooth,
To grudge my pleasures, to curtail my joys;
Thou better know'st the offices of nature.
Thy meed of mild aroma faileth not,
Wherein thou art endowed.
The standard foot-note for your side of the footlights--
