Vaudeville managers are pointing TO
the vaudeville tour OF Margaret Wych-
eTly as the latest additional bit of evil
dcnce of the artistic growth and de-
velOpment of this form Of theatrical
endeaVOr.
Miss Wycherly has for the last few
years stood in the front ranks of those
that are fighting for the better things
of the stage. Her productions OF the
plays of the Irish genius, William But
Ter Yeats. made a little over year
ago st the Hudson theatre In New
York. were regarded as a distinct step
toward higher things in the drama. and
placed the young artist i'm the front
rank of American players. That Miss
Wycherly is willing to devote an entire
year To a vaudeville tour is not with
out significance.
In a recent interview the actress ex-
planned her position very clearly: Il

this form of theatrical enterprise will
be most beneficial to mo i'm the long
run. / mean artistically as well as
financially. although / would be silly
not to admit that the financial returns
have influenced me IN This step. BI,
playing to vaudeville audiences is en-
tirely diff erent than playing to those
in other theatres. and am quito sure
