In London the man who hasn't time to go to the theatre box (llos goes to an accredited agency and requests cents for the per- fesmance he wants to ove. a The agent has no actual tickets to sell. He telephones to the (eatre box office, the bor office assigns him the best seate available, ai the agent thereupon writes an order for the tickets and gives them @itide customer, at the cathe time collecting the money therefor. ‘ho tichete are all at the theatre. ‘At any given moment the man in the box office has all his avail- @lo cents under his band. The patron who goes to the theatre in pareen has just as good a chance of getting the best ecate left at thet time as the pstron who telephones. The latter, of course, pays for _ the convenience and the theatre pays the agent o fixed sum for help- ing % with its business. { ; Theatre managers are ned permitted deliberately to deal cut bunches | | ef desirable tickets to outside brokers whe are to sell them fer all they qe get and divide the extra pref with the theatre.
