Ritchie. aa: 1¢G@ WORLD ‘SAT First Nighters All Miss White Way’s Biggest Show! Down Under Broadwa From California Lodes Are Eating Away the Heart of Manhat- tan Island With Steel Drills. & Sure—and the only show on Broadway that doesn’t advertise. Nor does it sport a free list. Even yellow money will not get you past the door, Three to one, the oldest Broadway first nighter—the first nighter with the long gray beard—might ask down cold. Where in it? hand your lady into the taxicab, you wise New Yorker, sophisticated in all you pass this show by because there's to see this attraction and be turned Why when you step out of the Lobsteria Cabaret and trundle right over it unawares. You the bright trails of the White Street, no Montenegrin general in gold lace waiting at the door to extract a tip from you as you enter. Because there's no splash you think there's no show. Yet the biggest show on Broadway is not on Broadway—it’s underneath. It's a melodram: It could pay to packed hou: It could thrill spectators, if it wanted Four inches of pine wood separate Broadway at Long Acre Square from this star attraction. Call it “The Lights Under Broad- way,” or something snappler, “Get Out and Get Under.” Perhaps you have noticed a six-| foot fence Inclosing a rough triangle in the centre of Long Acre Square. Yes, you've growled at it when the th en were letting out and the cal # were opening ub, because your taxi gets jammed aguinst that fence and the crowd on the elevated sidewalk haa to spill out into the atreet and mix itself with the gas smoke, Maybe you've been obser- vant enough to see wire-screened ; windows the length of that fence! and to hear something saying “Chug- | chug!" somewhere behind the gr pamted boards. YOU RIDE RIGHT OVER THE BIG UNDERGROUND SHOW. That's the lobby of the great show. Walk through that gate—if you can wheedle a pass from the firm of Hol- brook, Cabot &@ Rollin, engineers and gubway constructors—and you will find yourself a good many miles from Broadway. The mage is set for a color play of the good old Western type, The fact that all the lighted windows of the hotels roundabout go springing up to the stars above the top of that fence but makes a foil to the scenic values of this little bit of California minig camp dropped on Long Acre Square Big men, wide of shoulder and heavy of fist and with soiled gum boots running from foot to hip, stamp about in this constricted triangle, speaking the language of the ultimate West and swearing the crisp and cufly oaths of the Sierras, They are ‘ock men,” who come from stope and tunnel in the Coeur d’Al and the Goldfield lode out West. They are men as hard as the schist they fight with the teeth of chilled steel drilla—men of the big places and the full lives, who are as out of place among the white shirt fronts of Broadway's nightgs Solomon's ialand- ers would be. Not a man of them that ever saw @ little lady dance the “Chinese fox trot” to the tune of popping corks, though the little lady dances almost over their beads every night.

There a world of light, of automobile smoke, of wine and song has changed to a world of sad, gray rock; of steam, snaky pipes and throbbing noise. The flowers of the cabaret show yield to the mica sparkling in the wall of schist; the honk of the auto siren is replaced by the thunder of the drills stabbing into the swelling flanks of the man made cliff. No fluff and folly there. Just work —srindin, jemental toll. Your guide points above. There, writhing between the supnorts of the “deck,” which you called a street when your auto chug-chugged over it on the way to the theatre, are nests of long gray snakes—the in- terminable atretches of the telephone and electric condults, Through them the vital current is leaping to keep Broadway alight, voices are purring Uttle tales of love and “death.
