The beautiful and popular bal- lad “White Christmas” afforded a perfect vehicle for the next act Mrs. Connally succeeded in por- traying in this number a realistic and vivid snow scene which would do credit to rl Carroll. The fantasy of winter was produc ed as the snow drifted down on nimble-footed chorus girls dress- ed in ice-blue satin and carrying dainty tulle muffs. As.
