Jack Delaney, president of the Musicians’ Protective Union was also present. International President Shay spoke of the value of united action, and pointed out that strikes of theatre employees were threatened in no less than seventy-nine cities in the United States and Canada this season but, through preventive measures and successful negotiations, all but three of the strikes had been averted. Manager Moxley of the Russell Theatre intimated that this would be the last season during which that house would present dramatic shows and that probably moving picture and vaudeville would be staged in the future. Mr. Moxley declared that those present would agree undoubtedly that the ‘Russell Theatre was one of the finest lemons on God’s green earth.” The committee in charge of the banquet included R. R. Marcil, William Clarke, Thomas Pegg, A. L. Goold and Hector Ladouceur. Norton Payne, organist of the Centre Theatre, presided at the piano. faQ BONG Pictures Read The Digest Advertising Pages.
