Veteran Who Lost
Right Arm Designs
Poster for Dance
Illustrates Card for Christmas
Ball in Aid Of Lisa Day
Nursery.

In the fascinating brightness of shou
windows in all the shopping districts Is
poster that has invariably held the
attention of the buying crowds The
poster is very gay, orange in color and
very good as a poster. The card serves
double purpose. 1t draws the atten-
tion of the shop window student to the
Christmas ball that is to be given in
the Plaza on Thursday night for the
Lisa Day Nursery, and 1t also sends
the fancy in a new direction, toward
the Society of 1llustrators' School for
Disabled Soldiers in the Pennsylvania
Station Building.
The poster was designed by John III.
Whyte, veteran, who lost his right arm
in the Argonne, and had to learn how
to use his left arm before he could take
up his art work where he left IL off
before getting into the war. The sue
cess the directors of the Christmas ball
have had with the appeal of it's poster
that came from the illustrators school
Is hint that a similar organization in
need of such pungent propaganda NAV
also make a stroke of business work
two creditable ways.
The Christmas ball Is to be one of
important incidents in society during
this pre-christrnas week. The debutantes
are looking forward to 1t, and their
parents are among the patronesses Mrs.
Charles r. Scott heads the directing

FILM COMPANY SUES
MISS HURST FOR LIBEL
Based on Criticism of Photo
play From 'Stardusf.'

Miss Fannie Hurst author of "Star-
dust" novel which is the basis of a
picture of the same name being produced
by the Hope Hampton Producers, was
sued in the Supreme Court by the Hamp-
ton concern yesterday. So far only a
summons has been served in the case.
1t was stated that the action is for
libel and is based on criticisms which
have been made by Miss Hurst as to
the divergence between the structure of
her novel and the picture film which
has been founded on il, the scenario
being by Anthony Paul Kelly.
Miss Hurst made her criticism of the
photoplay last week following private
showing of it. She said she would do
everything possible to prevent it going
out with her name on 1t.
w. A. Clark of the Hampton concern
bought the film rights to the novel by
contract which gave the producer the
right to change or alter the story in
any way for screen purposes One of
the early captions in the film said the
photoplay was Suggested by Miss
Hurst's story.
Mr.. Kelly said: Miss Hurst's story
as written was not, and is not, suitable
to practical motion picture purposes.
and / would like to debate this point
with Miss Hurst either in public or
private"

Golden waits TIL Spring.

John Golden, producer of several of
! the outstanding successes of the last few
years. will make no production until the
spring, it was said at his office, though
he has two plays, THE Spite Corner
and Happy New Year." which he has
tried out. 1t was stated that it was less
the theatrical situation conditions that
was holding him back than his custom
of not presenting plays until half a year
after they were tried out.
The Eastern representative of Oliver
Morosco, who has been busy with the
movies in California, said that this
producer, who has a South Sea Island
romance and Harvard prize play on
tap. was taking a holiday for the pres
ent. His presentation of Miss Charlotte
Greenwood in Let 'Er Go, Lettie,"
would probably not take place here till
Feb. I, It was said.
II am going TO try out Superstition
by Col. Jasper Ewing Brady, next
moNth," said l.. Lawrence Weber. 'T
had originally intended to present a new
play by William lie Baron and another
by hitherto unknown writer but this
is the only production I shall make,
because Of business in the theatres"
George Broadhurst, Il representative
said, likewise will ''sit tight" and Max
Marcin and Winthrop Ames are mark
ing time, the latter ndVlnB decided not
to venture beyond THE Green Cod
dess' for the present. William A. Brady
will try another production out OF town
soon. Charles Dillingham; has made
nearly all the productions he had sched-
uled thus far.
Edgar Selwyn. after presenting for his
firm "The White Peacock" In few
weeks. will sail for India in February,

1t is pointed out in this connection that
George NJ. Cohan showed his usual as
tutenes in living abroad and producing
in London when the theatrical field here
did not look as promising as formerly.
The Shuberts and A. l.. Erlanger viii
keep going. 1t was stated at their Offices
They not only have larger capital to see
them through times of stress than the
average producer but they also have
made 1t policy to keen their numerous
houses filled. There are fewer man
ayers new to Broadway who are coming
forward this season as tenants of thea
tres. Mr.. Erlanger it was said. will

Norris Gest, who, with his partner,

IN the season bringing over Lucien and

season. stated that neither he nor Mr..

1t was stated at the office of Wagon
halls & Kemper that these managers,
who returned to the producing field two
years ago with three new shows and
who were expected to keep up that av-
erage every season, would make no new
presentations this season. They would
simply present a new company of "The
Bat" in London next month, making
eight companies here and abroad of this
melodrama. They preferred to remain
content with the profits from a tried
offering rather than risk money on new
ventures.
Brock Pemberton will likewise pre-
sent Enter Madame" in London at the
