Back Stage

John Golden is now going alone in the managerial field of the theatrical world, but if the success that has attended "Thunder" at the Criterion theater, New York, is an omen of his future good fortune as an individual producer, then the best traditions of that good old theatrical firm of yes terday-Smith and Golden-are going to be upheld and probably surpassed. However, 1t is worthy of note that Winchell Smith, between whom and his old partner, John Golden, there is still the same strong tie of friend ship, rewrote "Thunder'' before it was presented 10 the public. The play tells the story of a feud among the rugged folks of Sunrise Mountain of the Blue Ridge range in North Caro- lima. There are some lively moments during the four acts, but in the end all turns out well. The cast includes: Burr Mcintosh, Sylvia Field, Chester Morris, Marion Kerby, Benjamin Kauser, John Talbot, Wilson Day, Horace James, Marie Day, Guy Nicols, Leila Bennett, Blanche Talbot, Eva Dennison, Charles Althof, George Wright, Mart Kelsey, Sam Reed and Charles Mcdonald.
 Twelve cute kiddies perform in '"The Jolly Kids act at Fox's theater this weekend, and to say that they are great is putting it mildly. Ranging from a tiny, faXen- haired girl with chubby knees and an aggressive little squint to a tall, slender girl with a very good singing voice, the 12 youngsters present a pleasing musical and dancing numben~ that goes big with the audience. Oh, yes, we al- most forgot-there is quite a shim- mier in one of them. The act is under the personal supervision and direction of Mrs. Vallah Clapp, of England.

NOT A CHANCE FOR GENERAL
 WOOD IN CONNECTICUT IN VIEW
 OPINION OF JUDGE R, |, HEAD

r Judge Richard L. Head of Indi- ana, ambassador -extr&ordinary from Will H. Hays. chairman of the Re publican National Committee, has ap- peared in New Haven to sound out the presidential feelings of Connecti- cut and he declares that there never can be an adjustment of the feud be- tween John T. King, Republican packer of Gen. Leonard Wood, and leader of the Fairfield County G. O. F., and J. Henry Roraback, upstate leader.
 Judge Head seems to find, he says, that there is a growing sentiment in this state for General Wood but he does not believe that he will be able to carry the convention any more than Governor Lowden, who is a favorite in Connecticut with the Roraback-Ullman faction. He be- Iieves that a dark horse will spring up at the last minute and that he will carry the nomination.
 On the other hand he points out that the National Committee Is wor- ried over the outlook in Connecticut due to the split between King and Roraback and he says that he does not believe that there is a man liv- inx who can bring the two together

The capiases sery- ed on these officials are returnable next Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock. when Judge Anderson will hear the hrst arguments in the contempt pro- ceedings.
 An important charge and one on which the government is relying to prove its case is that the officials when issuing their notice that the strike order had been resc,nded, m1meographed the notice on blank papers and omitted from the copies an imprint of the official seal of the union It is added that upon receipt or the notice the unions throughout the country took the position. and
 so stated in the daily press and by word Of mouth that the withdrawal and cancellation notice was defective, invalid and without authority' be- cause 1t did not bear this seal and because the signatures of officials were printed and not signed by hand.
 President Lewis is specifically cited in one charge with refusing to notify the members that the with drawa1 order was issued and com municated in good faith and that it's purpose really was to cancel the strike. The charge adds that MT Lewis still refuses to send out such assurance.

Noted Tenor's Concert Was Cancelled Unavoidably, But He Will Sing
 Dec. 31.

John Mccormack, the famous Irish tenor who is to appear at Polls the ater on Sunday afternoon, December Fist, has written a letter to his friend Collector of the Port, James L. Mo Govern of this city, which speaks of the keen disappointn ent that was his because of his inability to appear here at the time the concert was to have been held.
 Unfounded rumors had attained considerable circulation hereabouts to the effect that the great singer had never intended to appear here and i that he could not be induced to come here. How unjust these rumors are ] is best attested by what MT. McCor- l mack says in his letter to Collector l NIcGovern.
 MT. McCormack's voice failed him a day or two prior to the time set for l his original appearance here which was November 16th. He caught a heavy cold while en route from south i ern points to the colder climate of the north. Because of this he was unable to sing in Bridgeport and was com peIled to cancel several other appear ances. He has since fully recovered and is now filling his engagements, being everywhere greeted. by the greatest outpourings of music lovers 1 in his entire career. MT. McCor- mack's letter to Collector N1cGovern follows:
 1 On Tour, Atlanta, Ga, Nov. 27, 1919. : My dear Jim
 1 I can't tell you how bitterly dis
 appointed I was at the unavoidable 1 postponement of my concert in ] Bridgeport. I would not bring that l matter up again now as all the de- tails have been arranged for my re- | appearance were 1t not for the fact 1 that a. rumor has reached me that 8 | report has been spread through i Bridgeport that not only will l no appear there on the Fist, of Decen. i Der next, but that l had no intention 1 of appearing there in the first place | Surely I don't have to tell the gooG
 audience in Bridgeport that this is z
 deliberate lie. As a matter of fact Jim, I have never looked forward SC
 much to a concert in my career. Yol
 see it was, or rather 1t is, to be m!
 first appearance in my home state
 for, as you are perhaps not aware,
 am a voting resident of the state O.
 Connecticut, and naturally felt al
 ''het up'' at the idea of appearing II
 my home state. Do assure my goot
 friends in Bridgeport that I will b,
 with them, with the help of God, oI
 the 21st. prox., and I hope to be abl
 to make up to them for any disap
 pointment they may have had on ac l count of my absolutely unavoidabl 1 non-appearance on the 18th. Looking forward to the pleasure o 1 seeing you, old friend, on the Fist o
 December, believe me,
 Yours very sincerely,
