Amarillo, Texas, March 6 CP-E. H. Sothern, noted Shakespearean actor, is the latest victim of the edi- torial barb of Gene Howe, editor of the Amarillo News Globe.
 Howe, remembered for his criti- cism a few months ago of Mary Garden, famous opera star, clashed with MT. Sothern yesterday over the actors refusal to be interviewed by reporter for Howe's newspaper. Sothern's pink toes" called Soth- ern "high hatter' and urged Amarillo people to "stay away from Sothern's lecture on Shakespeare last night.
 Actor Returns Money
 Mr. Sothern retaliated by saying he was "leaving Amarillo on the first train and may I never see it again" He denied the pink toe" allegation, and returned the $500 paid him for his appearance.

 My personal advice is to keep away from the auditorium. Don't pay any of your good money to sec him. MT. Sothern doesn't value our good will, but he does our money
 Scores took Howes advice and turned in their tickets for refunds.
 From the stage, Mr. Sothern took exception 10 the criticism. My toes are not pink" he said. This is the worst thing that has ever been said about me. Later he declared T am leaving Amarillo on the first train; may l never .see it again."
 Said He Was Fatigued
 Explaining his declination to be interviewed, MT. Sothern said he was fatigued when he arrived here. He was returning the $500 he said to prove to Howe that 'I am not after the money of the people of the smaller cities" and asked that it be given to charity.
