Patton Pleases in Annual Appearance at Washington
W. B. Patton paid his yearly visit to Washington last night and was again popular in his latest play The Deadly Female. His low-toned draw was effective and the rough exterior hid good hearted qualities. The supporting company was better than usual and Frank Davis matched Patton in ability. Phyllis Markley and Hazel Michelson led the two female roles with strong performances. A fair sized audience attended.
