HONOLULU IS
TO HAVE ACTS
IN VAUDEVILLE
Forty Stars Booked for Aus
traiia May Stop in Hawaii
on Return Trip

Forty acts OF vaudeville, booked in
the States during his recent visit
there viii. according to ". j. Doug
las. director and general manager OF
one OF the biggest theatrical interests
in Australia. pass through Honolulu
on the next few boats for circuit work
in that country.
While the visits of these actors to
Honolulu viii be only during the time
their steamers are in port on the
down-trip, most Of them will stop off
to play TO Honolulu audiences on
their return, says the theatrical man.
Douglas was a passenger today on the
Sierra, en- route to Australia The
acts staged here, he says. will be In
conjunction with the Magoon play
houses.
The interests which Douglas rep
resents as director and general mana
ger include Fuller's Theaters and
Vaudeville, Ltd. OF % houses: four
houses OF the legitimate drama under
and 10 moving picture houses. I'm
like the mainland companies, this
firm does not combine moving pic.
lures with vaudeville acts.
Pictures Warmly Praised.
Douglas is, however. an enthusiaat-
ic believer in the moving picture play.
While the motion picture is seem
ingly almost perfect now" he says,
81 verify believe that II Is only in the
first stages of development. Strides
in the work are being made every day
of which the average man little
dreams. Steroscopic' effects are being
studied to bring the picture out In
relief and the talking picture is also
to be made perfect"
That the show business is one OF
the best means OF advertising that q
country can have is his contention.
He says Australian people have
picked up more modern ideas Of llv.
ing through imitation OF American
actors than through any other method.
Theaters to Feel War.
Australia has not yet awakened to
what the sending ont OF her 1000
soldiers means, he thinks, but 10
bound to soon. The theatrical hllsi-
ness is just now beginning TO feel the
effect OF 1t.
Douglas looks for q world circuit
when the war is ended wherein act
ors will be booked beginning With
London, and on to New York, San
Francisco, Honolulu, Sydney and 9TH
er Australian cities, India, Africa and
continental Europe. II was partly IN
the interests OF this scheme that his
five-month trip to the States WAS
made.
