HUGH REILLY CO. ESTABLISHED 1888 PAINTS—GLASS 1334 New York Ave.—Phone NAt. 1703 THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, THURSDAY, APRIL 18, 1935. Former Stars, Now in C. C. C., Tread Boards at Press Club It was not a band of “ham” actors that played “The Taming of the Shrew” last night in the National Press Club auditorium. Though worl ing now for “coffee and cakes'—a mere pittance of $25 a week and “found”—some of these players, trouping about the C. C. C. camps once drew down $300 and $400 a week in legitimate productions. This fact was revealed today by Col. Earle Booth, Broadway theatrical producer, who brought many a pre- miere to Washington in the hey-day of the theater. “As a matter of fact,” Col. Booth d, “I have one man on the pay roll—in another company—who once got $600 a week from me, playing on Broadway. He is now playing as an unknown before boys in the C.C. C. camps.” Col. Booth is & member of the old firm of Booth, Gleason & Truex, the other two partners being Jimmy Glea- son, the movie actor, and Ernest Truex, the Broadway star. All of their plays, “The Fall Guy” included, are given by the C. C. C. troupers, royalty waived. ‘That there is not a ham actor in the outfit, playing under the auspices of F. E. R. A, and that there are po- tential stars in the making, were proved last night at a midnight sup- per in the Press Club. The gathering was made doubly festive by the reading of a telegram from Hollywood notify- ing one member of the cast that he “has been signed for pictures.” This was the handsome juvenile, who like most of his fellow artists, is traveling “incog.” He played here under the name of Jack Gratten. An old-timer in the troupe is Wil- fred Clarke, a nephew of Edwin Booth, On the boards for nearly half a cen- tury, Clarke played the same role last night that he portrayed in the Shakes- pearean cast assembled by Augustine Daly—when Ada Rehan played Kath erine, and John Drew was Petrucio. “That’s what I mean when I say they're not hams,” Col. Booth declared. Influenza Kills Cats. Influenza is killing thousands of the 250,000 cats in Liverpool, England.
