cision the Shuberts can offer no
further hindrance to the presence OF
the comedians in the Zlegfeld
"F'ollies," where they antic nightly
before Tut-Ankh-Amen's tomb.
Announcing his decision, Justice
Delehanty declared he was obliged
by the evidence before him to. find
for the actors on both their points.
"I believe" he said, that these
men were anxious, as they say, to
get out of vaudeville and into pro-
duction, so that they might live at
home most of the year. / believe
the vaudeville set forth in the letter
which was made a part of the con-
tract was intended to relate to a
contingency which might occur"
With regard to the defendants
standing the court said the plaintiffs
have failed to prove their claim that
the services of Gallagher and Shean
were strikingly unique.
MY opinion is that they are moth
ing more thaa ordinary performers, .
said Justice Delehanty. They are
ordinary performers, good, clever
performers, who by chance Of luck
got q clever slxit and have made a
hit. There are other men who, with
the same skit, would provoke just as
much hilarity. I have seen such
men myself, and / say 1t without
any Disagreement of the gentlemen
themselves. In fact, it is what they
have contended throughout this
trial."
Shubert said that his counsel
would be instructed to appeal at
once to the appellate division.
