Mr. Pollack took charge of the Kenyoo Theatre when It was a losing venture, booked the attraction! and watched everything carefully until within ■ very short time the theatre was a paying boose. He baa since ac compllabed the task of raising the price* from 25 to 35 cents and it present playing to bigger hoaves than ever. -f Business Is good st the booking agencies with- out any exceptions. Mr. Morganatern, of the elated Booking Agency, feels confident 'his will be the banner season since bla venture in this line.
