"The "other $90,060, oi* thereabouts, used; by; New "York end is for malot. of the clybhouse; which, says terfleld, is J^^reifiige for 'these Poot creatures,' meaning the. actors who hang out at the .club^ How the $266,000 fOr next year's maintenance Will be raised Is problem. With the circuits' dis- • Interest In ■ the. NVA, there's no .cer- talrity that the usual support from that source will be forthcoming. When orlginalJy taking the fina icial responsibility on their shoulders, the managers felt, they were i.'obll-" gated.' since then the number : of circuit theatres playlnB vaudeville has g'reatly diminished, a;n4 whetheif they still feel 'obligated' isn't known.

Financial uncertainty, states Lee, is the reason why .no piermanent medical head for the. Saranac Lake sanatorium has been appointed. That post was .ordered filled, as of Jan, &, by the New York State Depart- merit of Social Welfare which, foU. 'lowing' tCii ol^ficlal investigation, recommendied the demotloh of Mrs. Katherlne itfurphy to ..the position of housekeeper for the good of .the patients. Meanwhile, Dr> George Wilson, Who was Dr. Edg^ir Mayer's assist- ant, is serving^ as temporary medi- cal head. Mrs, Murphy retains the title of 'superintendent' without having any authority In the medical care of the patients. That^slie still is called 'superintendent',', with" Ul that that title Implies, dlflfera from the.status to: which she Was ordered relegated by the state. In New York the report is that Dr. Mayer may not return. to the NVA. san.' He IS currently engaged in resiearch 'work and lectures at the Cornell Institute whi^^ Invited him to New York as oh.® the lead- iner tuberculosis specialists, of the country. (7. A.
