are still laborfng under the impress
sion that the Tri-City Stock COM
pany, which is playing an extended
engagement in tri-city theatres, is
a home talent organization. a num-
Der are inclined TO confuse il with
a company that was formed here
three years ago only to disband af

ing woman with a number OF Chi

been associated with her husband in
a number of companies and is con-
sidered one of the best com ediennes

the Baldwin Stock company of New
Orleans: Dan Mcclure has had
long experience with stock compan-
