Ziegfeld Is Ready
To Expose Imitators
With New Offering

Mr.. Ziegfeld's advertisements Of
his new extravaganza carry the an
ncurcement that he will sound the
death knell of imitators," a state
ment which would indicate that that
eminent producer has been made
somewhat petulant by the fact that
his recipe for a successful revue has
been copied here and there with vast
profit to those concerned. 1t Is
plainly George White at whom this
philippe is chiefly directed. although
the Shuberts, with their "Gaities,"
John Murray Anderson with his
Greenwich Village FoIlies." and
even the other Mr.. Anderson with
his "Frivolities" are not entirely
without the pale. But not only has
George White launched a successful
revue series, but he had the added
temerity to tempt Ann Pennington
away from the Ziegfeld banner. Any
qualms which he may feel by reason
of the Ziegfeld announcements, how,
ever, Mr.. White is more than COM
pcnsated for by the mobs which are
besieging the Globe Theater these
nights in an effort to obtain admis-
sion to his Scandals of 1920" The
receipts at the Globe at present are
in the neighborhood of S25, 900 week.
ly, which insure profits OF about
$4,000 for Mr.. White, and probably
more than that for Mr.. Dillingham;,
who owns the theater. And since
Mr.. Dillingham; and Mr.. Ziegfeld are
partners in many an enterprise, II Is
question as to just how annoyed
Mr.. Ziegfeld is about it,
Gossip for week or more has
been to the effect that George NJ.
Cohan and Sam H. Harris were
about to come together again as

ly unfounded. II had its basis in
the fact that the lease of Cohan's
Grand Opera House in Chicago was
renewed in the firm name, but ap-
parently the joint activities of the
former partners will extend no
further. The date for the formal

Inimitable, irriSlStable Will Rogers has won fresh laurels as the mo good guy who made good" in ''Jubilo', the vivid picturization of the famous Sat urday Evening Post story by Ben Ames Williams, the feature picture at the Columbia theater today and to- morrow. That the story is delightfully."- entertaining and refreshingly satisfy ing every person of the many who saw it's premiere showing yesterday will agree, for Will Rogers and a Saturday Evening Post story together cannot be anything but popular.
 As Jubilo, the hobo hero of the story, Will Rogers has an ideally suited role, and he makes the most of 1t. Jubilo is a tramp, a mo good guy" But his wanderings lead him into seeing 3 train robbery, and then into series of amazing adventures when he gets work on a farm to walt around and see the events he thinks will follow the robbery. 4 romance of unsual appeal and interest runs through the story, for on the farm Jubilo meets girl, and nearly every situation has a good ly quota of smiles. for Jubilo has a

 POKES IN AT
 THE CANDIDATES
No Public Figure Spared by
 Washington Correspon-
 dents at Their Annual Dinner

WASHINGTON, ApEil 10.-Having arrived at the presidential age of 35 years, The Gridiron club celebrated the event tonight by turning it's dinner into D national non- partisan political con- vention, at which 1920 candidates heard their claims presented in a fashion new to party politics.
 Many were nominated and more were discussed in such way as to suggest to all the candidates who were present the notion that perhaps they take themselves too seriously.
 The Gridiron convention was called to order by the changing Of a dinner bell, and when the delegates, who also included guests, filed into the hall and took their seats at the dinner tables they discovered that both great polit- ical parties were heavily represented by some of their most distinguished members Among those present were Secretaries Colby, Meredith, Houston, Payne and Daniels, Attorney General Palmer, Speaker Gillett, General Persh- Ing, the Japanese ambassador, the Pol ish minister, former Secretaries Lans- ing. and Lane; Homer $. Cummings. chairman of the democratic national committee; Will H. Hays. chairman of the Republican national committee; !; Senators Watson of Indiana, Owen of Oklahoma, Harding of Ohio, and Poindexter of Washington; Governors Sproul of Pennsylvania, and Morrow of Kentucky, and Colonel George Harvey.
 The convention was opened by the selection of d temporary chairman, fol- lowing which it proceeded to elect q permanent chairman, who proved to be w. W. Jermane, the new president of the club. The proceedings were mixed and fast and, while touching upon many phases of the 1920 cam paign. really settled none of them.
 A press section was filled with work ing newspaper correspondents. and a iarge number of editors and publishers tried to crowd in. Dr. Albert Shaw could not get a seat among the cor respondents, who also rejected appll- cations from William H. Taft and ters. who applied for seats met the same fate.
 Whats Hoover's Politics?
 The working correspondents. how ever. were not without their troubles.

On With The Dance, at Strand

In "On With the Dance" the Strand is at present offering one of the sea sons decidedly brilliant offerings, and a. production that has succeeded in in cooperating the alluring environment of New York life with an appealing and unusual love story with an excel lence that is seldom attained in motion pictures. There is nothing over drawn in the story-its very charm lies in it's strict regard for correct detail.
 The very nature of the offering calls for the introduction of many amazing brilliant sceues. Those shots de- picting the interior of New York's fla nous Broadway jazz palaces" excel anything yet seen on the screen, while the true to life scenes from the East Side-the Bowery-the famous brown stone front" neighborhood-the stock exchange are a marvel of ingenius di rection.
 The added attractions are a Fox Sunshine comedy "The Roaming Bathtub". the Prizma and the Pathe News which contains views of the re- cent overflowing of the Roosevelt dam, as well as the children's drill at the Monroe Street school recently.

 This youngster is the latest find in screendom.

Guy Bates Post, who is now repeat ing in the far west the emphatic tri- umphs he has scored in eastern cities through the medium of his great work in ''The Masquerader,' and who comes for a days stay at the Elks theater, starting Sunday, April IS, is a pro- duction of dramatic stock in Cali fornia.
 In a conversation few days ago with San Francisco writers, Post told with enthusiasm about his school days. He attended Trinity school at Mission and Eleventh streets in San Francisco, and among his comrades were Mayor James Rolph of San Francisco and George Hind, Rolph's associate in bus mess.
 Post actually started his stage career in Chicago. but after a brief season, returned to the coast, playing a long engagement in Seattle and other dramatic stock centers. So pro- nounced was his ability at general characterization that he caught the eye of New York producers and it was not long before Post revisited the coast in The Heir to the Hoorah"
 It was not until Richard Walton Tully's famous Omar, the Tent maker" that Posts histrionic talents were fully appreciated by the theater- going public and the production of
 The Masquerader' has resulted in Post being uniformly hailed as the first actor in the land.
