Van Bostick, said to be a theatrical man, was sentenced to two years imprisonment for passing bad checks. Pantages Oakland house will put a 10 and 15 cent admission scale into effect when the new Hippodrome opens. to Cornell, while Wright assumed the position iormerly filled by Lamon. s ■ June 30, Billle Burke will open the new Turner ft Dahnken theatre at Watsonvllle, Cal., erected by the Appleton Investment Co. and leased for 10 years by the T. ft D. people. The house represents an Investment of $125,000 and has a seating capacity of 1.168. Claude Langley will direct the house. It is to play feature pictures, excepting one day a month, when a road attraction goes in. The old Globe theatre at Mission and 24th streets has been declared a nuisance by the Board of Public Works, which asked the Board of Supervisors for an appropriation of $1,900 to demolish It with. For some reason the entire bill originally routed to play the local Empress opening week of June 7, never reached here, but, instead, was recalled to New York. The local manage- ment did not get word until the preceding Tuesday, which caused the bill scheduled for appearance a week later to be utilized replac- ing the show called back. The change In the bills caused considerable confusion. On June 6 a daring attempt was made to loot the Italian rooms In the Palace of Fine Arts building, Exposition, of some valuable paintings. The attempt failed and the thief escaped capture. Reports concerning western Canada seem to conflict. Around town here it is constantly said that show business in Canada Is In bad shape, while a letter from a manager touring that territory says he found business much better than expected despite the war activi- ties going on in that country. Jane O'Rourke, a vaudeville actress, has filed bankruptcy papers declaring her in- debtedness to be $00,000 and no assets. A large portion of the amount is described as sums borrowed from friends, a large per- WHIM I NIHIL awasBBJ • Salnt-Baens, the noted French composer, Is scheduled to direct a huge tonal ensemble at Festival Hall Exposition on June 10, 24 and 27. The ensemble will Include Sousa's Rand, the Exposition Orchestra and a vocal chorus of 600 voices. POI ■ The International Association of Theatrical Stage Employes, District No. 2, held its an- nual convention last week In the Druid's Tem- ple. Delegates attended from Arizona, Ne- vada and New Mexico. Aside from the elec- tion of officers the business disposed by the body was not made public. While convening here last week Ir er- nallonal Association of Dancing M t i an- nounced that the modern dances suqh as Tango, Ragging and Trots would be eliminated from the ball room programs anl confined to the stage. However. It has not been announced what will succeed the present popular dances. Last week witnessed a change of manage- ment at - Pantages* Oakland house. Wm. Wright, the manager, was succeeded by Harry Cornell, who has been playing sketches over the same circuit. Warren Lamon, who pre- viously managed the floor In the 'Frisco house, was shifted to Oakland as assistant manager DENTISTS INSIST UPON THEIR PATIENTS USING CALOX One says:—"Never have I seen so many well kept mouths as I have since I made the daily uae of Calox a general requirement in my treat- ment of them."
