Among the various restaurants ana
dancing resorts that cluster in the bright
lights of New York's theatrical district
there is none brighter, gayer or more
spirited than Castels in the Air and Ice
Palace, located on the roof of the Forty
fourth Street Theater.
Both the principals and the twelve girls
of the ballet are among the best skaters
In the country. Gladys Lamb, a fresh,
bud of a girl, not yet 20, who was the
sensation OF the College Inn, Chicago,
has succeeded In making herself the
popular fsvorite OF New York City. Her
partner, Norvel BaptIe, who for many
years held the speed championship on
skates, gives nightly exhibitions of fancy
Ice figures and assists Miss Lamb in
many of the dual figures. Few can ex-
coed Isabel Butler, who has spent most
OF a long career on both roller and ice
skates, either in technique or grace of
manner in execution of difficult figures.
The brilliant and intricate evolutions of
the ice ballet, in which twelve beautiful
girls appear, are the result OF her inven-
ton and training. Completing the quar-
tet Of principals is Bobby Mclean,
who recently Joined the cast. Mr.. Nc
Lean Is the amateur champion speed
skater OF the country His exhibition of
speed skating on the limited space of the
Castles in the, Air rink is as remarkable
as it's exciting
The Washington herald., 1916-03-26

In an interview with Miss Lamb she
declared that II one were suffering from
too much energy. all they had to do was
to put on pair OF skates and let the
surplus seep into the ice. She herself Is
a little dynamo OF nervous energy.
Il have danced and rollerskated since
have been 10 years DID," said Miss
Lamb, adjusting her skate and display
ing an equisitely moulded ankle. But"
she added, smiling in qualification at the
applause that came from the midnight
throng OF bon WANTS who were assem-
bled around the little tables of the Ice
Palace, they are tame sports compared
with iceskating. I guess iceskating must
have come naturally to me for all
have learned l have accomplished in
less than two years, When I began, pro-
fessional skaters laughed at me and said
that it would take years to learn enough
figures TO appear professionally. But
had determined to become an iceskater,
and moreover l was determined would
not take years in learning how. In a
month after I began rehearsing with my
present partner, Norvel Baptie, made
my debut as a iceskater at the College
Inn, Chicago. II Is just a year and a
half now since made that appearance,
and here I am in New York City skating
in one of the most exclusive and elite
dance resorts Of the country. have

learned much in that time. am now
able to execute nearly all the figures
that any American skater OF years OF
experience can do-and besides q few
figures all my own. In my nightly ex-
hibition here, do a series of figures
alone and with my partner perform
three dances on skates. Time does not
permit me to exhibit all the figures and
dances l have learned since I began.
ITO me skating is the most exhilarat-
ing OF diversions, II Is more conducive
to grace than dancing and far moro
healthy. 1t gives one poise and frmness
of body. AS to rollerskating, II is not to
be mentined in the same breath with
iceskating. Moreover, no matter how
we'll accomplished one is in rollerskating.
It helps but little in mastering the art of
iceskating.
Il began my career as a public per-
former as q roIlerskater at the age of
10 and Travelled all over the country with
a team visiting the various rollerskating
Kinks OF the Middle West. Later l took
up dancing and appeared in vaudeville.
Two years ago I combined both roller
skating and dancing. The future does
not worry me for the iceskating craze
has just struck this country, and 1t will
be a long time before 1t dies away, II It
ever does. At least in the European
cities it has shown no indication of

"stsr" MisappIied Term,

fashion to issue extras upon slishter and

IS an extra" Similarly, there were
days when being a star meant that one
was one Of the ten or a dozen leading
dramatic figures In the country. They
were giants in those days Now, this is
not to be construed as a plea for the So
called good old days OF the theater.
Happily they are in the past But it is
not out OF the way TO object to the man

old institution have been allowed TO fall
INTO disrepute. As matters were once

John Mccormack April 4.

To those who have had the privilege
of hearing John Mccormack, the Irish
tenor, who Is to give a recital at Polls
Theater Tuesday afternoon, April 4, al
$50 o'clock, under the management OF
Mrs. Wilson-Greene, there must always
remain, in addition to the memory OF his
wonderful voice, the memory of a per
sonality that charms at once and con-
tinues to hold its charm.
A large and beautiful talent is that OF
John hcCormack's to be able to give
such exquisite pleasure, as he does,
through the medium OF music And a
beautiful talent is II also that he has a
charm and an influence that are lasting.
II is most remarkable how he draws the
same people concert after concert. Dur
ing his season just past in New York, II
was nothing unusual to hear remarks
such as this is the sixth time ] have
heard John Mccormack this season.
I've heard him sing Mother Machree'
five times and ! could hear him 1--WE times
over and he would still bring the tears"
II never miss a Mccormack recital and
I've come from out of town today to be
here" and divers others along the same
line. Perhaps one Of the reasons that
one enjoys him so much is that he sings
with but few exceptions, in English, and
after all, We like to understand that to
which we are listening.
