Well Wel Dolly Discovers Theatrical Manager
 With Brains and Who Is Human, Tool
By DOLLY DALRYMPLr

There are interviews" near inter- views and interviews imaginary and I've had all three?
 | The nearest near interview, that evar came my way was with a person named | Williams-Frank R. Williams-T shall never forget his name. It is indelibly inn pressed upon my simple little mind. and he was Miss Maude Adams manager.
 Now II there is one variety of people
 in all the world that is different from all the other varieties. that variety is man agers."
 They are in a class all to themselves. There never was anything in the heavens above or the earth below or the l water under the earth that is just ex- actly like manager"
 MT. Frank Williams was the very chiefest of the chief-a "Frohman mana ger, if you please, and when he delivered this startling bit of information to me. l remember how l "swelled up" Chats not very grammatical but it's exactly what I did, nevertheless) and promptly told him that he'd have to explain to me the difference between Frohman man ager and the common or garden variety. Mad?
 Gee whizi
 A March hare wasn't in it!
 Anyway
 He wouldn't be interviewed, but I got far better story by that than if he had talked, so that constituted my first.
 Offense at imaginary interviewing
 You see, he furnished two kinds of an ''interview'-a near interview" and an Imaginary interview which he couldn't have done if he had been weller, err just humnal
 But as I started out to say:
 There are all kinds of "interviews," but there are just two kinds of "managers''- the "Frohman manager and the others and so after my first "tiff' I settled down to d plain old hum- drum life, of just in- terviewing stars and kept hands off of the managerial end of the story
 But
 I'm subject to-
 No;
 Not fits;
 But
 l sometimes have a relapse
 I've just had one.
 l broke life long rule yesterday and tried to interview another manager and ] m pleased to tell you with some success I found one that not only had brains. but was human at the same time so | got busy.
 This is by way of introducing Mr Ed ward A. Schiller, who is little Emma Bunting's manager, and has been for four years, and he's one of the most agreeable men to talk to, one of the most genuine and one of the most successful managers I've ever met.
 Of course. you know Little Emma S | coming back next week and open the l Bijon with one of her fascinating plays. |
 Isn't that pleasant news to the hundreds l of people in Birmingham who just love this cunning, cute. attractive little red headed girl?
 MT. Schiller is never happier than when | he's talking about Miss Bunting, and of | all her admirers he perhaps is the great | est-which is saying a lot. I've conducted stock companies all over l the south, and I've had some of the best stock actresses in America under my management" Mr. Schiller said yester- day as We chatted about his work, but l can truthfully say that Miss Bunting is l the most satisfactory star in every way | that I've ever managed"
 Why is it with all her talent and clev- erness she has never reached Broadway" l l asked l
 Merely because of the commercial side of it and nothing else,'' said Mr Schil- | Ter "She could have been in the glare | of the Great White Way long ago if she l had chosen; she's had the best chances | to go of anybody I know, but do you 1 know that Miss Bunting is one of the | highest paid actresses on the stage to- day?"
 No" l said quickly, but I'm glad to hear that somebody's making money"
