CARROLL SHOW
IS HOST TO
CRITICS
By ANDREW r. KELLEY

Hy ANUNEW NJ MHA2AA1A
The Actors Equity Association
has landed with both feet on an
over-zealous shupert press agent,
and has been officially advised
he win not involve the actors
again.
Joe FLYNN was the enterprising
SCRIBE, who aroused the wrath Of
the actors union. As press agent
for ''Three Little Girls" in Chi;
Cago he planted a story to the
effect that the chorus girls had
rebelled against wearing ccrsets.
He claimed the chorines had held
Nm the show half an hour by re-
fusine to wear the whalebcne
stays and refused to yield when
the Actor. Equity Association
cr6ered them on the stage Of the
Great Northern. theater. The row
was settled, said the story, when
j. J. Shubert long-distance tele
phoned from New York yielding
to the girls demands.
Equity objected strenuously to
the story because it placed mem
bers of the association in the
position Of calling and taking
part in an unauthorized strike.
The girls were all members OF
Chorus Equity. They branded
the tale as a good Flynn fable.
Press Agent Flynn officially re.
buked, takes comfort in 1000 or
more clippings collected when all
press associations fell" for the
yarn,

Carroll Plays Host

There are four new shows open
ing in Philadelphia Monday
night and since the Sleepy City
dramatic critics pay more atten-
tion to straight dramas than
musicals, Earl Carroll figured out
his Sketch Book would get scant
''first string attention.
Hence the nnid-week party for
Philadelphia dramatic critics at
the National Wednesday night.
The bunch came down from Ben
Franklin's town, as guests Of the
Carroll management. jeff Keen
and Arthur Waters led the visit
ing delegation which made
whoopee after the show in a
Hotel Hamilton get-together.

SUNNY SIDE UP" GOOD
 FEATURE, AT COLISEUM

Two great stars, an all-star sup porting cast, a delightful story, plenty of comedy, and a half doz- en sensational song hits is the combination presented in Sunny Side Up," Fox Movietone musical comedy, which had it's opening per- formance before a capacity audi ence at the Douglas Coliseum last night.
 Janet Gaynor and Charles Far rell, making their musical comedy debut, gave an amazing perfor- nance. Both have pleasing voices and sang their songs in a manner that brought bursts of spontaneous applause from the opening nights audience. Miss Gaynor also blos- soms out as a dancer and proves she is as proficient in terpsichorean art as she is in acting.
 Sharon Lynn, Frank Richardson, Marjorie White and Fl Brendel, in the supporting cast of principals, gave excellent performances and received their fair share of ac- claim, also.

Chapter 20 JACK CRASHES AT LAST

If you please, ma'am' The but Ter almost choked as he ushered her inside.
 She went on up the steps me- chanically, conscious of the eyes of the bystanders on the street
 Who are they, James?' she asked in a voice that sounded re- mote in her own ears.
 Newspaper men, Mrs, Jack. On ma am"
 His mouth twisted in a spasm ot agony she wouldn't have expected from this cold servant.
 An accident?" she prompted. MT. Jack?"
 He nodded duly, closing the door behind her
 She stood very still, and when the butler would have supported her she shook her head.
 "Is he"
 James nodded again.
 Tt was in plane, ma'am. There there's an officer in there
 He gestured toward the drawing rooms.
 Mrs. Vaneering?1 she asked.
 She's all broken up, ma am. There's a doctor with her, now, and nurses We've only heard half an hour since"
 Dagger put hand to her throat. The icy clutch upon her heart was tighter than ever, but she had no inclination to cry. This was some thing beyond tears. Besides, the Marley women were used to grief. Often they'd seen their men brought home. bristling with Comanche ar rows or perforated by an outlaws six-shooter It had been like that for hundred years. But who would have supposed
 "I'll go in and speak to him. she said abruptly. NO, you needn't come, James. Please find out if Mrs. Vaneering has all she needs. and don't let the doctor go with out seeing me"
 Outside the portieres, she halted an instant to compose her face, for her lips had commenced to work in a queer way she found most dis concerting Then she pushed the hangings aside, and stepped into the dim light of the big room. Op- posite her a major in the uniform of the Air Service stood up with an embarrassed celerity, his hawk s face wrenched by an expression of pity.
 I'm Major Broderick. Mrs. Va neering," he said hesitantly. "I- T."
 The butler told me" she said faintly. "Is he-really-"
 "Yes," he answered looking away.
 was it-immediate?"
 "Yes." repeated the officer. "Td gone over to the field with him he and Olny were trying out that new six-motor plane. They had a muddy runway, and somehow the ship turned a somersault on the takeoff. Smashed both of them
 "Was he sober?" she asked de- liberately.
 Absolutely"
 "Im glad of that" she said with difficulty.
 T can't tell you how I-Look here. can't do something for youf Is there anyone you want me tc fetch here?"
 No, thanks" she replied, after moments reflection. You mighi = That is, the arrangements al

That's all taken care of" he as- sured her.
 Then. I don't think there's any, thing more, Major"
 She rose as slowly as she had seated herself, and he took her arm.
 "A woman ought to have done this,' he muttered. DO you feel all right? You aren't going to faint?"
 I'm a flier, myself, Major Brod- erick. It's just-well this is what flying means to some"
 You're a woman he said. "I- if you don't mind, I'll stay-neWs- papers and all that"
 Thank you" she assented. That would be kind"
 Out in the hall James awaited her.
 Mrs. Vaneering is quiet, now, Mrs. -" He checked himself vis- idy-- "Ma'am. The doctor gave her something You-you'd best lie down, and let me send him to you"
 Perhaps you had, James," she said listlessly
 Going up in the lift, she had the ore refrain running through her mind:
 Poor Jack To end like this. And sober. Poor Jack' But as her weeping maid met her in the hall a second thought pierced her consciousness like a lance:
 I'm not married! I'm widow!"
 Strange and shocking implica- tion a familiar personality gone utterly; old ways, old habits left without point or reason; her whole life to make over again Her heart fluttered wildly. If she might weep with Marie!
 Bizarre were the days that suc- ceeded Jacks death. Dagger moved through them in a daze, yet a daze which in no wise confused the clarity of her perceptions.
 She was honestly dismayed by the tragedy. Death blurred the out lines of Jacks weaknesses, threw into high relief the lovable qualities of his character. And she was suf- flciently honest to be disturbed by the let-down in nervous tension which accompanied her grief. For, sorrow as she might, she wasn't as cast down as her motheri in-law, and Mrs. Vaneering was as sensible of this as she, herself.
 Jacks death had severed the only tie between the two women. Mrs. Vaneering's origin al prejudice against Dagger had never been overcome and now it was intensi- fled by the discovery that under the terms of her sons will his widow was to inherit his entire fortune, including the millions left him by his father.
 Nothing Dagger could say would serve to reconcile her mother-in- law either to this fact or to her own personality. And as soon as she decently could, she moved out of the Vaneering home. Kitty had invited her to Detroit, and Uncle Jim and Aunt Espy had telegraphed summonses to return to Texas; but in her present mood she wanted to be by herself.
 She felt as though she had been spiritually bruised; her heart ached, and her mind was numbed and un- certain. People bothered her-that is, individuals. She preferred to

MISS DEWITT IS BRIDE
 OF SALEM, ORE, MAN

Announcements received here in the mail yesterday told of the marriage of Miss Lillian DeMytt to MT. Henry J. Kropp at Salem, Oregon, on Thursday, July 3l.
 Mrs. Kropp is the daughter of MT. and Mrs. Leon DeMytt, who were residents in Douglas for a number of years. The young lady herself, was born on the Island and attended the Douglas schools, leav-

remain in the city because of it's immensity, because she could slip unidentified into the endless stream of humanity that flowed through it's streets one of the innumerable chips tossed here and there by the turgid currents of life.
 No plans occupied her She mere ly ate and slept, read enormously, walked in unfrequented byways, drove her car miles into the coun- | try. Only her lawyers had her ad dress.
 1 This phase lasted for several weeks It was interrupted by cable from Dick in Paris:
 "Just heard your loss Dearest Dagger do come Paris Emily and I will do all in power divert you With much love yours always Dick" She read it. over a second time, and burst of energy dispersed her lethargy. Darling old Dick The one friend she could rely upon in such a time, the enc who'd under stand, who'd be silent when she desired silence, who's supply amuse- ment when she was bored.
 To see him, to be with him, she'd even accept the company of that pale ghost-wife of Blaine's. Poor thing, this Emily deserved a share of happiness after so many years. Who could appreciate that so much as Dagger? Who should begrudge it to her less?
 There was much to do, but the doing of it pleased and excited her. She and her maid packed, bought tickets, secured passports, and week after Dicks cable reach ed her she stood on the deck of great French liner backing out into the stream.
 The gay throngs oi passengers, the comfortable living quarters, the courteous officers, the throb and pulse of the engines, above all, the feel and smell of the sea, ravished her. She cast off tragedys burden, and resolved to exploit this new life so much as was feasible for young widow, whose mourning ex- aggerated the slim youthfulness of face and figure.
 It was exhilarating to Dagger, and exhilaration was what she needed. In three days her recent troubles were a dark cloud on the horizon of the past.
 It wouldn't do to settle into narrow rut. She must travel, meet people of all races, all degrees, study different civilizations and different countries and religions. That was what Blaine would have had her do.

DRY TREND SEEN
IN DIGEST POLL.
Vote for Enforcement Passes
Modification Count for
First Time.

A general trend toward a dryer vote
in the Literary Digest's prohibition pol
is noted by the magazine in the cur
rent number, which tomorrow will show
that in the eighth week of the poll the
vote for enforcement passes that fol
modification for the first time.
The tabulation of more than 100000
votes shows that three States-North
Carolina, Oklahoma and Tennessee
have joined Kansas and Arkansas in
voting over so per cent for strict en-
forcement.
Only three States have reported a
majority for repeal-Connecticut, New
Jersey and Rhode Island. The maya
zine says editorially: "As the repeal of
the eighteenth amendment would hinge
upon the vote by States and not upon a
popular plurality, the winning of three
States for the bone-dry column is not
to be sneezed at"
OF the 4,150,017 votes in the current
report, 1,248,58 or 5000 per cent, ia
vor strict enforcement; 1.231.849, or
1858 per cent, register for modification.
and 1,669,579, or 1929 per cent. vote
for repeal
I'VE have been advised by 81 newspa-
pers throughout the country that they
are conducting local polls to check our
returns in their own sections" DR.. Will
liam Seaver Woods, editor of the Digest,
is quoted as saying Where the check
up has been at all exhaustive" he said
we have been advised that the news
paper returns vary but slightly from
ours.
THE squirt for enforcement eXcites
piquant interest in the remaining weeks
of the poll the magazine says. edi-
torially, Ballots continue to pour in
but the peak has been passed and the
volume lessons little by little from day
to day."
