10 1 Q Keystone Comedies were becoming U I u very popular. Among the new comics who joined forces with Mack Sennett, Mabel Normand and Ford Sterling were Roscoe Arbuckle, a rotund comedian sometimes known as "Fatty" Arbuckle, Mack Swain, Hank Mann, Al St. John, and a young Englishman named Charles Chaplin who had been playing the bigtime vaudeville from coast to coast in Alf Reeves' act "Karno's Pantomime Company." Adam Kessel had caught the act and hired Chaplin for $150 a week. In November he appeared in his first film, a one-reeler, "Kid's Auto Races," made on the Keystone lot in Los Angeles. Chaplin's character of the little man with the baggy pants, oversized shoes and cane became famous before he was known by name. After Zukor first showed "Queen Elizabeth" at New York's Lyceum Theatre, and with the "Quo Vadis" success at the Astor, the legitimate theatres were coming more into use for exploitation purposes. "Traffic In Souls," a Universal release directed by a former actor, George Loane Tucker, was shown at Joe Weber's Theatre where it gave four showings daily for a twenty-five-cent admission. It was advertised as "a $200,000 spectacle in 700 scenes with 800 players and showing the traps cunningly laid for young girls by vice agents." Actually it had cost $5,700 and was made in four weeks. It grossed over half a million dollars.
