Appear Sunday

Washington music lovers will
welcome with open arms Lucrezia
Bori, the sensational Metropolitan
soprano, when she appears with
the National Symphony Or.
chestra Sunday afternoon at 4
o'clock, at Constitution Hall.
It is an amazing civic accom-
plishment to bring the famous
artist to the Capital at popular
prices. This is made possible
through the public spirit of the
orchestra executive committee
and the list of contributors, who
have given $4,000 to make the
National Symphony reality.
. It was announced today that
the prices for the Sunday after
noon concert will be $3.50 and
so cents, not higher, as was
enormously announced.

The legitimate theater, which

abandoned hope that President
Hoover will stimulate business by
an appearance in the local tenn

Administration. Chief Justice

honors as accrue to the steadiest

Fox Gives Radio
To Right Cuessers|

If you want to win yourself a
new radio all you have to do is
enter the Fox Theater-M. A.
Leese- -Crosley radio guessing con-
test which starts at the Fox
Theater next Friday, and guess
right. Five beautiful radios will
be given away free in a contest
that is so simple it should lure
many contestants.
Here's how it will be done.
Starting Friday there will be a
large glass jar in the lobby of
the Fox. This jar will be filled
with a certain number of pen
nies. Each penny represents a
radio that has been sold during
the past year. To the five per-
sons making the nearest correct
guess there will be awarded a
new set. The contest will close
after the last show on Thursday,
November 10.
AS each patron enters the Fox
next Friday, and all that week,
they will be given a ballot.

Two plays which Washington
had seen made their Broadway
debuts Monday night, receiving
mixed verdicts.
Peter Flies High" which we
saw here with Glenn Hunter le-
lighted the Gaiety Theater with
John Hole in the main role Of the
Myron Fagan play. The critical
consensus was a pleasant play
but one which will never chal-
lenge for Pulitzer honorS.
Alexander Woollcott, as ex-
pected, stole the show and the
notices from Francine Larrimore
in Brief Moment" 1t was
praised as a well written effort
with particular appeal for the
limousine trade. Robert Douglas,
English leading man, was rated
below par. Percy Hammond, OF
the Tribune describing the critic
turned actor, said:
"Mr. WOOllcOtt is as good an
end man as any comedian he
ever praised when he was critic
of the Times, the Herald, the
Sun or the World"

BarthIemess
Again As a
Cabin Boy
By HARRISON CARROLL


(copyriEht, 1881, Premier syndicate)
HOLLYWOOD, Nov. ia
story that calls to mind the
classic, "Tol'able David" has just
been purchased by Warner
Brothers for Dick Barthelmess.
It is "The Cabin in the Cot
ton" a novel by Harry Harrison
Croll, dealing with life in a white
trash community of Mississippi.
I don't know that the story has
any further resemblance TO
"Tolable David" but I thought OF
the earlier picture as soon as l
learned the news.
Dick will film the Croll novel
after he completes Alias the
Doctor" OF course, it will reach
the screen under a different title.
Give This Boy a Hand
An owner Of a Hollywood
miniature golf course has kept

Starts on Small Wage

The salary? Not much as
salaries go. Only $22 a week.
But evidently a matter Of great
Importance to jenkins. And
rather large n the newspaper
world when you consider the
fact that this man didn't know
the first thing about newspaper
work. AS a matter of fact, Jen-
kins was a rank amateur.
It didn't take the rest Of the
staff more than a few minutes
to find it out. The man spoke
in eloquent terms, and was in
clined to be loud in his con-
versations. When he was in
troduced to the men on the
copy desk he requested that his
middle initials be employed
whenever his name was used.
"The name is Milton A. B.
Jenkins" he asserted. please
don't forget the "A. B. boys.
I've always used my name that
way, and I'd like to continue.
It gives me a certain stamp,
you see."
He was fortunate that the
copy readers didn't laugh in his
face. They merely handed him
disguised looks and turned back
to their work. One of them
Immediately nicknamed him
"Alphabet"-and it was a name
that stuck to him in that office
from then on. His request for
the "A. B." got him into trouble
Immediately.
Braggadocio Resented
Exactly why the city editor
had hired jenkins was never
clear to anyone. Maybe the
head man was having his own
little joke. If he was, it didn't
turn out so badly at all. Dur
ing his second day on the job
Jenkins turned up with a pic
ture that the office had been
trying to land for some time.
He had been lucky, but that
made no difference. The pic
ture was worth his salary for
plenty of weeks to come.
But that didn't help him with
the other men. They began to
ride him, and they refused to
let up. They did everything to
him that had ever been done to
Q cub around a newspaper.
They gave him an address in
the center Of a lake and told
him to wait there for a photog-
rapher. They sent him out into
q terrific storm on a fake as
Signment after hiding his over
coat. They put black ribbon
in his typewriter and removed
the typewriter ribbon. They
sent him out for beer and
when he returned told him it
was no good and refused to pay
for it. And so on.
Becomes the Goat
Large or small, there's a goat
in every office. When the fun
dies down and the goat gets a
little wiser, the wise ones lay
off for a while and turn to
some one else. With jenkins,
however, there did not seem to
be any end to the sport. Every
prank they played on him
turned out to be belly laugh.
He was one goat who refused
to grow wise.
One thing you'll have to say
for the man. He complained bit
terly to the other reporters
but he -efused to go any higher
than that. There were several
occasions on which he might
have had two or three men fired
by a report to the bosses.
There was no such report.
