incidentally l believe l have been

change the subject.
There is still romance left in the
newspaper business. Grace Dayton
was a special writer on the New
York American. She went TO inter
view David Belasco. She appealed to
his artistic sense. And he told her
she might make a great actress. For
year she covered her assignments
and studied for the stage. Now she
has been starred In a play by Bel
asco. 1t seems to me newspaper
folk should make excellent kndling
for theatrical fires. They know much
of life. Haywood Broun was a"flop"
as a monologist but I believe he was
miscast. He would make good ira
gedian.
