Notwithstanding the fact that Car
lotta with her famous loop-the-loop
on a bicycle has been announced as
the headliner by Sullivan and Consi-
dine for their new bill, opening at the
Los Angeles theater this afternoon,
she will not appear, owing to the inn
mense success of the act in the north
where she is playing an extra weeks
engagement. Her place on the new bill
will be taken by Max Duffek, the IA
nous continental musical contortion-
ist who has created a furore with his
exceptional act. Others on the new
bill will be the former Belasco player,
Bradlee Martin and his company, Mile.
