NEW YORK, March 17-Eugene
Walter bobbed up, trout-like, in the
swift Rialto currents recently for a
nibble at reducing profits. He pre-
scented a sex horror of the hedge
rows. The chief interest, however,
was in Walters return in new sort
of theatrical role.
He was about the first of the
newspaper reporters to attain play
wrighting success, antedating Mac
Arthur and Hecht, Ward Morehouse
and a dozen others by 20 years. His
success became a saga of the news
rooms and inspired many illusory
surges toward the metropolitan
manana.
Walter was indeed almost the per-
feet hero for fiction. A migratory
reporter out of Cleveland, o. he went
from job to job, finally drifted to
New York and the inevitable bleak
ness of a bench in Madison Square.
Then he wrote several box office
filters.
Thus he became a somewhat start
ling figure to the S25-a-Week report
ers of his day. A carrier of the cane,
wearer of spats and occupant OF de
luxe hotel suite. His glamour was
further enhanced by marriage to the
beautiful stage star, Charlotte Walk
er. Then sour breaks and now a
new whack at life.

There is heard now and then a

referred to as journalists. They cry:
