TWO STORIES
ABOUT PLAYERS

Ted Healey was the victim of a
practical joke and he thinks he
knows "the guy that done it." To
come to the point Mr.. Healy makes
the allegation that it was Aileen
Stanley, who with himself form the
stellar triumvirate in "a Night in
Spain" which comes to the Shubert-
Murat the week commencing Mon
day, Oct. %.
Some one, Healy swears it was Miss
Stanley, heard that there was to be
male bathing beauty contest at Ven
ice, Los Angeles beach playground,
recently A car called at Healy's
hotel with the information that
friends were waiting on the sea-
side. Gloating at the prospect of a
free ride the comic bit. Once at the
beach, Healy as prevailed to don a.
bathing suit with the statement that
his friends were awaiting him on
the sunny strand.
In the open he was informed that
he had been entered in the tourna-
ment of masculine pulchritude.
Healy ran, and kept on running. He
sought refuge under the old Sunset
pier until the event was over. Now
he seeks revenge.
Lillian Smith, the peaches and
cream vision of loneliness whose
talents as a comedienne are among
the frequent delights of "a Night in
SPAIN" has been on the stage less
than eighteen months and is playing
one of the principals in Winter
Garden extravaganza. During the
run of the show she understudied
several of the women principals.
One fell afoul of the flu. Lillian
made good. She is from East Liver
pool, o. Just another one of the
Ohio gang who's getting it while the
getting's good.

master Of this big revue, Doc looks
very solemn behind his horn-rim-
mod specs, but is anything but that.
He delivers a sidesplitting mono
logue which has to do with the
human system and how to take care
of it. He appears in a stage box to
offer suggestions to a nice dancing
team trying desperately to do its
stuff. He is a ludicrous schoolmas-
ter before a class of girls. He is
always before the curtain to make
an announcement in the approved
revue manner. Rockwell is a very
comical fellow.

STRIKE FIGURES
IN SENATE QUIZ
Committee on Shipstead Bill
Will Call Indianapolis
Witnesses.
BY ROBERT TALLEY
United Press staff Correspondent


WASHINGTON, Feb. 13.-An or
viously sympathetic Senate Judiciary
Committee was reaching out toby
to extend the Senate hearings IN
the shipstead bill outlawing latDr
injunctions far beyond expectations
Of it's proponents.
The subcommittee charged with
the inquiry is planning to call Wit
nesseS here from other cities to
testify about drastic injunctims,
and to make a personal trip Of in
Spection to the Pennsylvania toal
fields.
II think this committee oughj to
go into that matter further" said
Senator Thomas J. Walsh, sitter
William Green, president of the
American Federation of Labor, had
described a drastic Indianapolis
street car Injunction.
Indianapolis Strike Described
The committee decided to sum-
mon witnesses here from Indian
apolis.
Later Green told Of the stringent
Schoonmaker Injunction In Penn
SylVarlia.
1T think" Senator Morns said,
privately, "that the subcommittee
should go into Pennsylvania to
make a first hand investigation"
In the Indianapolis street railway
case, Green showed that two union
organizers are now serving ninety
days in jail as the result Of a strike
fomented and called by a local
union president who later confessed
that he was detective IN the pay
of the street railway company at
$50 a week.
Green said the Pennsylvania In
junction prevented the union from
making evication bonds for the
miners.
Company Unions Hit
'The Pennsylvania landlord law
says the tenant may occupy the
house until final adjudication of the
case, providing he gives bond for
the rent" he said. 1.-THE courts
injunction, refusing the right of the
union to furnish bond, nullifled the
State law"
Green assailed company unions"
now offered by many employers, as
a menace to labor and of no bene-
fit to the men.
I'm the marlborough Rapid Tran
sit case in New York the man who
organized the company union gets
a salary of $4,000 a year," he said.
"They require each employee to sign
a contract that he will not join a
legitimate trades union, and when
we attempt to organize the men
they seek to enjoin U.S."
