...Blond Murray Murdock, forward of the Ranger's New York hockey club, is one of the fastest, most graceful skaters in professional hockey. He seldom scores. Usually, when he has got past the defense and tried a shot he does not follow the puck like his bald teammate, Ivan ("Ching") Johnson, but skates gracefully back, content that he has made an effort. Last Saturday in Boston young Murdock got angry when Indian-faced Hitchman of Boston, wearing a patch of plaster over each eye, had thrown him against the boards. Three times Murdock went down the ice, scored twice...

Blossom Seeley as "Roxie" of Chicago is the "sex appeal" of the production. Vividly blond, with a Tanguay voice, and costumes to match, she is the most contagious if not the stellar light of the edition. Miss Grace Brinkley in the lead is very beautiful and very dumb. As an ingenue Laura Lee she manages to hold down her end of the flighty show rather well. As for the males in the cast, no one but Dr. George Rockwell was enabled or deserved to occupy the spotlight unduly long. After much perserverance he managed to exhaust the resistance...
