Joe Rines, who conducts the Dress
Rehearsal orchestra over NBC each
Sunday, has been called upon to do
some strange things In his enter
tainment career but he surpassed
them all during q recent Rehearsal
program. The roar Of q lion was
needed so Joe reared back and let
60 with such ferocity that he even
frightened himself. Joan Ma
0ni, adopted daughter Of Jack Ben
ny and Mary Livingstone, has come
OF age. For the first time in her
life she has been allowed to stay up
late enough to hear their Sunday
veening NBC broadcast. When the
radio was switched on she looked
curious when the voices Of her par
ents came out of nowhere. But did
she laugh and make a cute remark?
She curled up and went to sleep!
Fred Astaire, NBC star, recent
y made great sport Of attempting
70 sing an operate piece. Yet as
. tiny youngster Fred used to tell
his family he was going to be a
famous opera star. Then his feet
got rhythm and arias went out
the window. .. Fred Allen never
leaves his house ON Sunday. In
fact he doesn't even get dressed.
He remains in his pajamas all
day, has his food sent up and
pores through the newspapers for
Town Hall news items. When
night comes he has ten brief skits
finished. But he only uses four
on his NBC program and consigns
the rest to the wastebasket

CIVIC GROUP THRIVES
The cheerful news from the
Washington Civic Theater is that
Girls in Uniform" did the second
biggest gross business of the cur
rent season in it's recent run at
the Wardman Park Theater.
First place for the season goes
to ut Can't Happen Here" and
next comes the show of the life
in the German school, which was
admittedly a distinguished play
and production but not so obvi-
ouSly a box office smash.
From the advance call at the
box office, there seems to be a very
fair chance that "Lysistrata" will
be the greatest draw of the entire
season. Marian Chace and her
ballet group will take over the
dancing in the coming Greek
play, and it may be said that the
dancing will include the famous
"Bachannale," exactly as Miss
Chace staged it for the celebrated
production which the University
Players put on in Baltimore a
few years ago.

KELLEYGRAMS

According to Variety, Grover
Whalen expects New York's
worlds fair to make Chicago's
look like a side show.
With the opening still more
than two years off, the New York
Words Fair has already spent ap-
proximately $1.500,000. Staff now
totals $40 full-time employees, with
that number swelling constantly.
Offices cover five full floors Of the
Empire State Building.
Before the fair officially opens
on April 30, 1899, figured $685.
100000 will have been ladled out.
Fair itself will fork over around
SOS, 900, 900 of that amount, with
private exhibits, foreign govern
mentS and concessionaires putting
up remaining $10C,000,000. Grover
Whalen and aides estimate land
hope) for attendance of 100000
the first year, to guarantee sue
cess. That's at an average rate
of about 100000 daily for the six
months the fair will be open
throughout 1889 and probably
1910.
Some idea of the magnitude of
the New York fair, according to
present figuring, may be had from
comparisons with the Chicago
Century of Progress, which was
the largest up to then. Cost Of
the Chicago show was around
SAC, 100000 before the opening.
Attendance totaled 21,000000 the
first year, at an average daily rate
of about 10000.

1.-THE King and the Chorus
Girl" brings the popular new star,
Fernand Gravel, to the Metropol-
tan Theater Friday.
Director Mervyn Leroy made
"The King and the Chorus Girl"
as his first independent produc-
ton for Warner Bros. release.
Groucho Marx and Norma n
Krasna wrote the original story
and the cast supporting the hand
some M. Gravel includes Joan
Blondell, who plays the chlorine;
Edward Everett Horton, Alan
Mowbray, Luis Alberni, Mary Nash
and Jane Wyman.
The story of THE King and the
Chorus Girl" concerns King Alfred
VII of Bulgaria, who turns to the
gaieties of Paris after he has
given up his throne and kingdom.
An independent little American
chorus girl, not too impressed by
royalty, intrigues his interest and
begins a rollicking, trouble-strewn
and complex romance which
builds to a delightful climax.
