AS REPORTER He WAS
TOO GOOD TO HOLD JOB
Manager Rex Tells How Bert Levy
WaS Driven to the Vaude-
Vile Stage.

Bert Levy, who Is on the bill at the
Lyric the latter half of this week, is
a vaudeville entertainer who would be
a star newspaper man If the manag-
ing editors in New York and Chicago
would quit interfering with him when
he gets 2 job.
you see. it's like this" Manager
Charlie Rex. of the Lyric, who is an
old pal of the versatile Levy, under
took to explain last night Bert
started out TO be an artist. He had
a native genius for drawing and paint
ing. and when the advantage OF tech
nlcal training was added he had no
difficulty at all in winning recogni-
ton from the art editors of the metro
politan press and his talent was in
demand But unfortunately for his
peace of mind, while he was drawing
pictures for one of the big New York
dailes he began writing special stories
with an original vein of humor in
them and putting them over on the
Sunday editor The managing editor
took notice of these breezy effusions
to which Levy signed his name and
ne decided that LeVy's real talent was
as reporter and humorous writer.
So he transferred Bert. against his
protest. to the star list in the city
room. Levy was writing city news
and sunday specials about two weeks,
when an opposition newspa per took
him over at double the salary he was
getting, Bert buckled down to the
new job, giving the baper the best
that was in him. But he couldn't
keep away from his drawing board.
He began slipping comic cartoons into
the paper. These attracted the at
tention of his new managing editor.
who forthwith decided for himself and
for Bert that Levys forte was draw
ngg So he ordered Bert into the
art department OF the paper.
THAT started a row between the
city editor and the art editor the city
editor complaining to the managing
editor that the city room had been
robbed Of its best special writer Levy
worried over the Nrumpus and finally
jumpedd to Chicago newspaper,
where he settled down again as a car
toonist. Again his energetic nature
got the better of him and he fell to
writing on the side His stuff
caught the eye of the editor in chief.
md Levy found himself shifted once
more from the art department to the
city room. His experiences in Chi
cago were a repetition of his New
York experiences When he wanted
to be an artist they made a writer Of
him. and when he began to enjoy the
writing end Of the game they kicked
him over to the art department Fin
ally the idea of entertaining an audi
ence with the fun-an-art exhibition
