NOTES.— Manager Dave Maurice, of the Family Theatre, refuses to grant courteales to Variety's Lafayette correspondent, as the correspondent would not "boost" Mr. Maurice's theatre. Some weeks ago a quarrel arose between Mr. Maurice and the Two Vivians. Maurice called in the Variety man, and requested a "special story," asking that the Vivians be given the worst of It. After listening to both sides, your correspondent gave the In- cident no mention whatsoever, It being worth- less as a news Item. Since then Mr. Maurice has asked for special mention in Variety, and no doubt has been assisting the newsboys in their sales each week, up to now, in vainly look- Ins for his name in print. He has been buying three Varletys weekly, probably thinking he was . left out of the first two by mistake. Falling to And what he wanted. Mr. Maurice became very angry. This Is Mr. Maurice's second year in the show business. As the years roll along, If he is still running a family theatre or something else In the theatrical 'line, Mr. Maurice will grow wiser. R.
