are nursing the tender memories
of their sons who are buried in
Europe-the real heroes of the
World war. Those mothers have
not sought the stage for CONNER
cial gain.
In answering questions put to
him on the stage Mr.. Dillinger
did not present single fact that
has not been published.
The performance I reviewed
failed to show the father of the
slain criminal in the light of deep
remorse for the life his son led.
To me, the appearance of Dill
linger ST.. on any stage is not
theater for adults and, of course,
never will be for family trade.
Mr.. Dillinger and his family are
not actors, but they appeared upon
a stage here which has presented
some of the greatest men and
women of the theater.
Mr.. Nicholas contends that the
appearance of the Dillingers was
not morbid and could not be COM
pared with "the morbid pictures in
some newsreels."
L refused to book those reels"
Mr.. Nicholas said.
AS far as I'm concerned I re-
fused to see any reels showing the
exploits and the body Of the slain
criminal.
T OUIS STOCKMAN of the
L. Stockman studios left today
for New York city, where he will
teach at the f1fty-frSt annual
convention of the Dancing Mas

This is the largest association
of dancing teachers in the world
and the annual conventions are
attended by several hundred
members from all parts of the
United States and Canada.
Teachers usually are changed
each year, but Mr.. Stockman has
had the honor of being asked to
teach for the fourth year.
From New York he will go di-
rectly to Chicago to teach at both
the normal school and convention
Of the Chicago Association of
Dancing Masters.
This will be Mr.. Stockman's
seventh consecutive year to teach
for this organization, which num-
