Variety (March 1909)

VARIETY 19 CANT SING "HELLO. PEOPLE." Late last week the Shubertt served no- tice on the management of the "Bon Tons" that the "Hello People" song in use by the show must be stopped. The notice was in the form of a restraining order. "Hello, People" is the song hit of "Ha- vana" at the New York Casino. Upon re- ceipt of the notification, it was removed from the "Bon Tons" list, and has not been in use by the show since. The "Bon Tons" are at the Gayety, Philadelphia, this week. SECOND DELMAR THEATRE. J> St. Louis, March 25. There were those who scoffed the idea that J. C. Jannopoulo would build a sec- ond theatre in Delmar Garden, but since the letting of contracts is announced, all concede it a likelihood. Barnett, Haynes & Barnett are the architects and The Gray Construction Company the contractors. A record will probably be established in putting up the house, which will be novel in construction and a vast improvement over anything St. Louis now has in the way of a summer theatre. Though Mr. Jannopoulo since his return from New York has not announced any of his at- tractions, it is said Nat Goodwin is an- other of his dramatic stars. Frank Stammer8 will be stage manager of the opera company in the old pavilion. HIGH CLASS IN ERIE. Erie, Pa., March 25. E. H. Suerken, manager of the Alpha, and H. T. Foster, manager of Four Mile Creek Park, have formed a partnership and purchased a piece of land 82% x 1G5 ft., in the heart of the city, to erect a theatre stating 1,500. It will be ready by the fall, and will be devoted to high class vaudeville. Ground will be broken April 1. WATCH OUT FOR THIS. A clever petty thief appears to have been working about among the vaudeville agents. Among his victims this week is Lillian Handy, the stenographer in George Homans' office, St. James Building. Miss Handy last week bought a new set of encyclopedias for office reference use. Monday a well-appearing young man rushed into the office and asked to bor- row them for use by an agent just down the corridor. Miss Handy immediately gave permission for their removal. The nice-appearing young man—also the en- cyclopedias—are still absent. The police were notified. HOMER LIND TO STAR. Gus Hill announced this week that he hod under consideration a plan to star Homer Lind in a musical piece next senson. 'Hie manager likewise made pause from dictating correspondence with one hand and signing letters with the other (Hill is the only manager in captivity who can do this), to declare that Hollis Cooley would not have an "Arizona" Co. out under his management next season—not if he (Hill) knew it. Mr. Hill claims that the control of "Arizona" still rests with him, and he has made no arrangements to turn it over to another. VARIETY ARTISTS' ROUTES FOR WEEK MARCH 29 WHEN NOT OTHERWISE INDICATED.
