a 60-pound black snapper in the

snapper is rather rare but put up a

pull on the line. The black snapper
is one Of the best colored fish to be

FIELDS RATES
$4,000 WEEK
AS COMIC

In assembling the seventh edi-
ton of the "Vanities," which
opens at the National Theater
on Sunday evening, for a weeks
stay, with matinee Saturday,
Earl Carroll has hired artists
in all lines of endeavor to make
this edition the greatest Of the
series.
Starting with the COMEDY, w.
C. Fields is in command of the
laughs and every one Of his
gestures, every one Of his lines
. is a command which New York
audiences obeyed for half a
year. The next requisite Is
beauty and for that Mr.. Car
roll has assembled Sc of the
most beautiful girls In the
world. The chorus of this
"Vanities" Is the highest sal
aried chorus in the history Of
show business.
The chorus contains many
beauty contest winners, fore
most among them being fea-
tured Dorothy Britton, known
as Miss Universe" by virtue
of having gained first prize in
the International Beauty Con-
test held at Galveston, Tex.
Others in the large cast are:
Ben Blue, Bennett Boys, Theo-
dore, Novello and Enrica, Joey
Ray, Jean Joyson, Paul Rus
sell, Patrick Henry, Dorothy
Lull, Elsie Conner, Vivian Will
son.
No expense has been spared
in making this revue the great
est Of the "Vanities" series.
In order to lure w. c. Fields
away from motion picture work,
Mr.. Carroll invaded Hollywood
with a check book and fought
the movies with a language
they spoke long before the
CalKleS. He offered to pay
Fields $4,000 weekly. Mr..
Fields accepted. Then after
"Vanities" had completed it's
run in New York, the movies
again made bid for the ser
vices of w. C. Fields. Mr..
Carroll went the movies one
better, raised the salary and
now Fields is receiving $4,000
weekly, and is the highest paid
comic on the legitimate stage.

Molly Mcintyre (whose pen
manship~ is something anyone
might envy is a bit distressed
because of a paragraph printed
in Tuesdays column wherein it
was set forth that the Scotch
actress playing the maid in
THE Infinite Bootblack" at the
Belasco was some seasons ago
the delightful Kitty Mackaye, Of
"Bunty Pulls the Strings"
1t was all very truthful but
the impression might surely be
gathered that the actress had
slipped into minor chores after
featured prominence. The truth
is that Molly Mcintyre emerged
from retirement at the earnest
solicitation of the playwright
when he encountered an i'm
paSse in casting the role
through inability to find an
actress at liberty who could
play Scotch grained comedy.
Miss Mcintyre finally consented
to help out for a few weeks,
fearing just what happened.
She is a valued member of
the Radio Guild, which is the
National BroadcaSting Com
pany stock organization for the
presentation of dramas on the
air. Also she has a play in
preparation in which she will
enact the star role. It goes

this explanation does full JUS
tice to the willingness of Miss

Samaritan.

GIRLS
RISE EARLY
FOR FILMS

Hollywood is a tpSy-turvy
land to New York show girls.
Gone West to play in the
talkies, they find it is strange
world of upset traditions and
inverted rules.
They have not only learned
that California rivers have the
water under the sand; that
many of the beautiful flowers
have no perfume; and that
the hills are brown in summer
and green in winter.
But they also learn that you
CAN get up before noon; that
it is possible to dance at 8 in
the morning; that you can get
to sleep before 2 a. m. and that
all the rules of show life are
discarded in the talkies.

She was formerly in the Winter

other Broadway musical pro-
auctions.

when they told me to be at the
studio at 8 o'clock, and I
showed up in the evening and
missed a days work" she said.
II didn't know anybody went
to work at 8 in the morning.
A lot of the girls thought they
couldn't dance before noon.
They said they couldn't get the
kinks out of their legs before
that time. But they are doing
it.
Eyes, we are on speaking

Successful operation of a test line
between New York and Omaha has
resulted IN decision of the depart
rnent of commerce to install several
OF these lines on the principal air
ways Of the country.
One would extend from Pitts
burgh TO st. Louis by way of Co

Haute. This line, 1t Is planned, will
continue by way of Kansas City,
Wichita, Clovis, Albuquerque to the
west coast.
Another would extend from Gin

would be located In Indianapolis for
the two lines.
These range beaconS, provided by
the government, have the advantage
of serving pilots throughout the
twenty-four-hour day, and, unlike
lighted beacons, are not affected by
thick" weather. They serve as hon.
ing devices, making it possible to
fly to the exact location of the bea-
con and thereby locating the land

been established.
The device is operated by trans
