New York. Jan. 5.--The bread and
butter circuit" as Broadway now
terms the summer colony theaters,
afforded hundreds Of jobless actors
their first break in many long, lean
months.
Scores have been working through
the summer months for little more
than food, board and car fare: And
grateful for such! Scores Of others,
star names in their profession, are
hungry for work. Many fear that
emotional stagnation which often
comes with overriding idleness.
Even in happier times, performers
who dubbed over $4,000 q week sal
aries on Broadway smilingly accepted
an extras pay in the summer play
houses.
For instance, $50 week is top pay
for anyone appearing at Skowhegan's
pioneer Lakewood theater in Maine.
More often $40 to $50 is the wage. Yet
during the summer one could find such
Broadway figures as Bert Lytell, Dor
othy Stickney, Margaret Wycherly
Hal Sicily, Edith Barrett. Taylor
Holmes or Arthur Byron coming on
for a week or two.
And hasty count shows more thar
40 playhouses operated this year-a
new high for hot-weather drama-at
seashores, mountain resorts and in
terurban vacation spots. Old barns
churches, wharveS, movie houses and
public halls have been converted.
Young players, feverish for Oppor-
tunities, haunt the various spots ready
to grab any sort Of chance. Some
motor from resort to resort praying
for the opportunity Of appearing with
the well known players.

Nelv YOrk's bohemian
ChieftQi11 Goes Broke
Creations Of Don Dickerman
Couldn't Stand Pressure
Of Depression

New York, Jan. 5.-T!se far.famed
Bohemian atmosphere" OF Green
wich Village, made-to-order for tour
lists and stunning Manhattahites,
now hears the melancholy strain of
taps as Don Dickerman goes to the
bankruptcy courts.
The drou and artificially- favored
Dickerman creations could not stand
the pressure Of times when people
have grown more serious, and the
playboy Is q little out of date. His
phoney pirates grew less ferocious as
their pay dwindled and creditors ar.
rived; his farm folk and his old Eng
lish settings: his displays of art works
Of struggling painters and his thea
trically designed buccaneer back
grounds-these were for days when
gay crowds roamed the Village by
ways. Dickerman prospered. and what
started as good natured hobby of a
brilliant young college man became
something of an industry.
Remainder-Five Old Suits
From an experiment in the old. old
Village days, the idea grew to chain
of "atmosphere" night clubs. Dick
erman chuckled. He grew rich. He
could engage in other hobbies, such as
taking long explorational trips with
DR.. william Beebe, the naturalist
writer. He was rumored as having
tossed much Of his money into West
Indian trips.
He returned to New York with
many trophies. most of which found
their way to the walls of his resorts.
He patronized young artists and he
knew art, yet he had helped create
much of the fictitious art atmos-
phere" of yesteryear. All In good
fun!
And now, by his own admission
business is terrible and he claims
as his worldly goods, five old suits
Of clothes, all three or four years old
and badly worm"
Amusingly enough. his list of credi-
tors includes such worthless as Rudy

Barclay. George Palmer Putnam and

chased space.
