By BIDE About Plays and Players DUDLEY HE theatrical managers are try- ing hard to devise a way to prevent the charging of extor- tionate prices for theatre tickets by @peculators. At a recent meeting the members of the Producing Managers’ Association spent two hours discus- sing the matter but arrived at no def- inite conclusion. Lee Shubert sug- gested a central ticket affice which could regulate prices and now John Golden comes out and offers $1,000 to Any person who can prove that he eVer received more than the printed price for a “Lightnin'" ticket, Will- jam Harris wanted to do away with the “buys” of blocks of seats for “Rast Is West” and “Lincoln” and A. H. Woods favored such a step in connection with hia shows. Nothing was done, however. At the McHride offices it was stated that the custom of. charging 50 conts advance over hx office prices would be continued. So far there has been no concerted move on the part of the speculators to push prises out of sight.
