The Equity is out with a statement from) =Executive Secretary Frank Gilmore to the effect that the re- @ection of Mr. Cohan to membershijy, m the P. M. A. makes the Equity Shop policy 100 per cent.. It saya ame Cohan company, ‘The O'Brien Girt,” was the only one in America owned outside the ranks of the P. M A., which was using a mixed cast. The statement expresses satisfaction ever the new turn in theatrical affairs THE TALE OF THE HAT. “Hello, Dudley!" said a man's cx- | ited voice on the telephone last eve- ming. ‘Got a story for This is George Shor of the Rialto. “Very good, George!" we replied. | “What's the tale?" “A gentleman had his derby hat Mow off on”—— : “Wait a minute!" we said. “Why @id_he arrange to have his hat blow oft?"" “T mean a gentleman's derby hat blew off in front of the Bush Termi- mal Building on 42d Strect to-day, | and where do you think it landed?" | Bridge?” | | landed on the marquee of the Rialto Theatre.

An old-fashioned professional mat- fmee will be given at the Knicker- bocker Theatre Friday afternoon, Jan. 20, when a house full of actors and actresses will see “Bull-Dog Drum- mond’ as guests of Charles Dilling- ham. Of late years professional mat- inees have been free for players, but the public has been admitted at box office prices. Mr. Dillingham believes a professional matinee should be for professionals only. Therefore, the public will be excluded a week from to-morrow, but all bona fide profes- sionals now acting in New York will be admitted and will be permitted to hiss the villains to their hearts’ con- tent. TO PRODUCE HERE. Albert De Courville, the London producer, announces that he has ar- ranged with the Messrs, Shubert to book “Pins and Needles,” his musical revue, in a Shubert theatre. He says he will establish a Lase in New York and make other productions here all @? which he will book through the Shubert offices. Mr. De Courville has a revue called “Hello, Canada,” play- ing in the Northwest. In it is ap- pearing his wife, Shirley ‘The producer’s London activities will be continued as heretofore. ICE-SKATERS MARRY. William Winslow, a comedy skater in “Get Together’? at the Hippo- drome, and Lora Jean Carlile, also a professional ice-skater, were marrici yesterday at the Little Churen Around the Corner. Mr. and Mrs, Winslow will live at No. 64 Riverside Drive. aks A WRONG IMPRESSION. Two aged rabbis, seeking the co- operation of Bert Levy in the form: tion of a bill for a benefit entertain- ment, found him yesterday, and one asked: “Mr. Levy, could we get your fa- mous daughter, Ethel, to help out in the entertainment?" Mr. Levy explained that thel Levey was not his daughter, but he offered to aid them in getting acts. It was evident that some joker hai made rather a poor attempt at humor im advising the two old men, GOLFERS GO SOUTH.
