In New York.

New -Meanderings Just as illicit liquor dens definitely became things of the past, so taht metfcu- lous grammarians were beginning to refer to them as spore-easies, up popped new crop of the places, products of high taxation. Cant afford to renew their state h- censes.
 There's no actual intersection Of Park avenue and Broadway, yet the twain frequently meet. There are William Rhienlander Stewart and Wendy Barrie. And Harvey Ladew, one of the best catches in society, and Kay Francis. Prince von Lichtenstein and Ina Claire are bethrothed, and 1t seems he has persuaded her to desert the stage. EveSymington has just made her debut as a night club singer. She's a daughter of former Senator James w. Wadsworth, granddaugh- ter O fJohn Hay, once secretary Of state, and wife of w. Stewart Sym ington of the too-too Philadelphia Symingtons. But she sings at the Place Piquale, and even makes her family like it.

Speciality Theaters

There's theater showing only Russian films, and another showing only British films. These houses are devoted exclusively to news reels. Now there's theater, and on star stupped Forty-fifth street, too, which has dripped form the legit-
 innate ranks to present solid pro- grams of animated cartoons. Soon there'll be legitimate theater for
 children, with companies of pro- fessional adult actors presenting plays.
 I've never seen quite so many i. movie folk in town. They all seem to have taken to the skyways, and drop into New York as easily as anything for chat with a produ- cer, or to look over a script, or for
 8 weekend of shopping and show going. Counting distinguished noses at any theatrical first night, you might think you were in Geuman's
