Paramount Newt cameraman, and Bob Fogg, his "personal" pilot, thought nothing of their 3000-mile flight over Canadian wastes to greet Cleneral Italo Bal-bo and his air armada and bring bark to New York the first motion pictures of the epic-making flight. But they will remember for a long time the diet of salmon and tea on which they subsisted during most of the Journey. "Cart wrlght.

While there are. numerically, all too many the atres in New York today, there might as well be none at all for the purposes of any group of professional theatre workers who take the initiative in producing a play or tevue of their own craftsmanship without the benefit of a wealthy Such a group is the one assembled by" etc. The Derelict Drama mHIS particular little entertain- I ment, which lasted about one night, was characterized by the ymithfulness and bounce of Its semi-professional artists, a fact which made more than usually puzzling ths Inclusion of one of those numbers so curiously fashionable nowa-dsvi, in which the supposed fun is bused on sexual degeneracy. The effeminate young man ha long been a fixture of the rougher sorts of English and American burlesque, but it could always be said far old-fashioned comedy on this subject that the fun lay quite as much in the absurd external contrast between the lah-de-dah young msn and the roughnecks he was played against, as it did In abnormality as such.
