ARRANGING OF BILL
NOT AN EASY TASK

A cursory glance at a weeks bill at
the Cosmos Theater would, TO the lay
man. spell only a certain number OF In
dividuaI acts-vaudeville acts-in con-
junction with a list of moving picture
reels, which run in sequence pune
tuated'' by the aforesaid vaudeville acts,
furnish to the theater patrons an en-
tertainment scheduled to occupy GER
tain length of time.
Just here is where the layman would
make a mistake, for in these days Of
combined vaudeville and moving pic
lures the managers of the popular
priced houses, whose aim is to amuse
the greatest possible number of people
for the smallest possible amount OF
money have to display as much Judg-
ment in the selection of the numbers on
their programs If not more, than the
manager who classifies himself among
the magnates of the so-called big
time"
The latter has less ramifications to
consider than the man who combines
vaudeville and pictures IN making up
his show. The formers bill is largely
arranged by the booking office, accord
ing to the ranking of the acts con-
tracted. That is to say, there is-.no
question as TO what his headline act
will be, and his bookings seldom afford
any chance of clash between two acts
0y reason OF thc arrangement III WHICH
they are TO appear. -
The road of a manager of such a
theater as the Cosmos is by no means
an easy one. He has to arrange what
to all intents and purposes are, two
shows. They must, as separate attrae-
tions, be of sufficient variety to please
all classes of patrons, and having Sc
lected and booked these two shows he
must combine them in such way as
not to lose the punch of any act by al
lowing il to be shown IN the wrong
place on the program.
, For instance, If two of his vaudeville
acts are a troop of trained dogs and
pIaylet built on pathos, the dog act
would be spoiled il it followed reel of
pictures showing the antics or depreda-
tions of wild animals. In the same
! way the playlet might spoil a picture If
the reel following il was what is known
/ in the movies as heart story"
1t would hardly be possible to carry
! off a performance successfully in such
An order. The two pairs of acts must
| be as widely separated as possible.
Because this policy is pursued IN the
arrangement of all the bills at the
; Cosmos, the management is able to send
all the audiences away well pleased.
There is never drag in the perform
ance, and there is never too much of
| one thing shown in sequence. Several
! old showmen have remarked on the spe-
cial care taken at this theater in ar
! ranging the bill along these lines, Hnd
] declare that it makes a difference of at
least one-tbird in the added receipts of
the house.
