The Little Theatre this season
and in those passed has proved its
right to go out and ask for funds.
The Little Theatre Society is doing
worthwhile things. No question
about that.
1 have the following statement of
fact from an officer Of the organi-
cation:
"a drive for funds has been
launched by the Little Theatre So
ciety of Indianapolis, the purpose
being to raise enough money to COM
plete the theater building of the So
ciety, only one unit Of which has
been built and used to date.
1.-The building, which is situated
at Nineteenth and Alabama SITS, was
opened in February, 1926. Since that
time the membership of the society
has trebled, numbering at the pres
ent time over nine hundred, and the
building is entirely inadequate to
care for the increase.
"a seating capacity Of 23S makes
It necessary to repeat plays on sew
eral nights, involving financial loss
which a larger auditorium would
eliminate.
THE house fund drive when car
ried to a successful completion will
enable the society to finish its build
ing project and add the two units
which the original plans call for.
without changing the general
style of architecture the auditorium
will be enlarged to seat 500 Social
rooms will be added, more office
rooms provided, and larger dressing
rooms and the stage enlarged to
measure 60 feet In length by 35 feet
in depth.
"By carefully organized plan, the
house fund drive is being carried on
by a committee of twenty-five, each
member heading subcommittee.
Only small subscriptions are being
asked for, none being larger than
$40, and in this way q large percent
age of the public is enabled to coop
crate in the enterprise, which is in
reality a civic and community affair.

NEW YORK, Feb. 19.-As the
time for naming the Pulitzer prize
p.ay ior the year draws near Broad
way is discussing the possible win
ner. They say in many quarters
that the committee charged with CIV
ing the prize is inclined to look with
favor upon Paul Green's "In Abra-
hams Bosom" 1t is a play Of Ne
gro life.
Any play produced before March 1
is eligible for consideration for the
current award and it is possible that
the honor may go to a play yet TO
see the light of day. Saturdays
Children" by Maxwell Anderson, and
"The Road to Rome" by Robert
Sherwood are among the recent
plays regarded as possible winners.
Molly O'Day, a 17-year-old miss,
who has had about a year of movie
experience, has been chosen by First
National officials to play opposite
Richard Barthelmess in THE Patent
Leather Kid" Miss O'Day's selec-
ton may mean the development Of
another star. Many film actresses
have achieved fame by their work
in support of a famous actor. All
feminine Hollywood is envious.

16, in 1.-THE Honor Of the Family"
Mr.. Skinner continued the above
comment saying: 1.-The rot which
part Of the public talks about the de-
cline of acting is only equaled by
the rot which some of the actors talk
of the decline of critics. The merry
war of the actor and critics was go
ing on just as merrily century ago.
Criticism was just the same then as
now. 1t was good and bad. Once
I bought and bound fifteen volumes
Of The Theatrical Inquisitor,'
sample of one form Of English dra-
matte criticism of a century ago.
Whoever may have been the critic Of
that publication he spared neither
John Philip Kemble, Mrs. Sarah
Siddons nor the elder Booth. Ed
mund Kean was his god among &C
tors. The governors of Drury Lane
Theater and the authors Of the plays
they produced came in for their
share of the mauling. The 1nqisi-
tors critic was truly terror. Yet
he was Of the day when criticism was
supposed to be in its flower. With
criticism, as with acting, one era is
about the same as every other. And
each era talks the same rot about
the halcyon era which just preceded
il. Why should an actor object to
criticism? If he accomplishes
good thing he wants to be talked
about. Deep in his heart he knows
that he cannot ways be uniform
ly good and successful.
Similar nonsense is talked about
the managers. Our commercial
managers-as you call them-are do
ing well. They are not, as far as I
have observed, a stumbling block
to ambitious actors. The machinery
Of theatrical life has grown SO COM
plfcated that it has to be regulated
and systematized. AS far as can
see, the new order Of things hasn't
suffered obstruction as to my devel-
opment."

Her first appearance on the stage
in that section of New York was in
"Tangerine" She was with Mitzi
in blossom Time" was the prima
donna in the "Music Box Revue"
and also in George Whites "Scan-
dals," at the Globe in New York.
Paul J. Gregory, who portrays the
hero-lover, Jim Kenyon, in Rose
Marie" is a southerner, his birth
place and home being at Jacksonville,
Fla. He was educated at st. Johns
Military Academy at Racine, Wis.
For one so young, his stage expert
ence has been extensive and varied.
His first appearance before the pub
lie was in the movies. He had part
in several pictures with Lionel Bar
rymore and has appeared with such
stars as Wallace Berry, Bryant
Washburn and Henry B. Walthall.
He worked at the old Essanay.
studios in Chicago at the time Gloria
Swanson and Agnes Ayres were
there as extra girls. Mr.. Gregory
then spent several seasons with
Walter Hampden in Shakesperien
repertoire.
His first singing part was in the
Greenwich Village Follies. Last sea-
son he was with Geraldine Farrar.
He paints in oil, and sculptures. He
is an accomplished swimmer.
Though diminutive, what Marie
Eline, the Coincidence, lacks in
stature she fully makes up in grace,
charm, vivacity and looks. In Rose
Marie" Miss Eline gives splendid
characterization of Lady Jane, the
proprietress of a saloon in the wilds
of the Canadian Northwest. Marie
Eline was born in Milwaukee and
six years old.
Len Mence will be seen as Emile,
brother of Rose Marie, a part which
he played last season with the Phila-
delphia company.
Harry Koler, the comedian, who
takes the part of hard-boiled Her
man, was for many seasons in vaude-
Vile and was for some time the fea-
ture in skit called THE Four
Muskeeteers." Last season he was
the hard-boiled Herman Of the Phil
adelphia company of Rose Marie"
The part of Wanda, the half-breed
Indian vamp, is portrayed by Hazel
Gaudreau, a Los Angeles girl. Miss
Gaudreau studied dancing under
Belcher, the instructor of such we'll
known artists as Lima Basquette
and Dorothy billy. For the purpose
Of completing her acrobatic training,
she played opposite Al st. John in
slap-stick moving pictures. Later,
when she was the feature dancer in
cafe in Kansas City, she was seen
by the Marx brothers, who gave her
contract on the spot, She was
with them for two seasons in "I'l1
Say She Is" Last season Miss Gaud-
reau was the Wanda of the Philadel-
phia company, and when the COM
pany closed, Mr.. Hammerstein sent
her to the Chicago company, which
at that time was in Los Angeles.
Others of the principals who were
in either the Philadelphia or Boston
companies of Crosse Marie" are Ra-
mona Hogan, Paul E. Porter and
Thomas Chadwick.
The members of the chorus who
were in either the New York, Bos-
ton, Chicago or Philadelphia COM
panies of Rose Marie" are about
evenly divided, so the company
which will be seen here is what
might safely be termed a composite
COMPANY. in that its members have
