The comedy wallop is the death- bed scene and its backstiigei after- math, with not a little comedy ex- acted from the administering of castor oil to the abdominally-tor- tured little Eva the fifth. The numerical title 48 another manifestation of the Golden hunch on numerical play- appellations which have produced such hits as "Seventh Heaven,'' "Four Walls," "Two Little Girls," et al.; and 'Eva the Fifth" (originally "Town Hall") should fare equally as well at the box office, Alel to toss away the fortune on the im- pulse of the moment, when his thrifty fiancee blocked him long enough to let Lillian do the prodigal Jilting for a "happy" curtain as you might say. Katherine Standing, a daughter of Giiy Standing, ■ making her first appearance in this country, is a great beauty and a grace- ful actress in the part of the Christian heroine, and Herbert Clark,, who plays Samuel, is some- thing of a find. If he ever gets a part, Broadway will have a hew matinee idol.. He is the best looking leading man of the Latin type who has appeared lately and possesses stage poise and polish. Louis Sorin does extremely well with the fa- miliar Hebrew comedy type. Play's future depends upon how the Jewish public reacts to its well calculated syrupy: sentimental ap- peal.
