Also on the stage from left to right are Neal Burns, Vera Steadman, Al Christie and Isabel Bryant. The editor of “Variety,” in a recent issue hits the nail right on the head in commenting on certain New York runs of features without comedies and other worthwhile short subjects to back them up. The editorial says: “Its two episodes so far (referring to the feature attraction) have been obviously cheap and trashy, exactly the type of screen output to drive away the patronage that has been painstakingly built up for the Times Square palaces since they were opened. To make it worse, the company has booked in another full-length feature to supplement the serial, thus crowding out the musical features and supplemental program of short comedies, scenics and cartoons, elements in the type of show which have attracted the, best fans as much as the film features, perhaps more.”
