GIRL WAS ‘BOSS’ ON LOEW’S STATE Ann Dornin Is One of Three Women Architects in Country. Equally as Interesting’ to theatergoers as the building Itself Is the fact that a woman supervised the work on Loew's State Theater, which opens at 1 o’clock next Monday afternoon. Miss Ann Dornin, a native of Norfolk, Ya., a graduate of the architectural school of Columbia University and the first among her sex to become a supervisor for an architect, is the woman In question. Coached In early youth by her mother, who was a designer of fabrics. Miss Dornin took the work more seriously on leaving high school and secured a position in an architect’s office In Norfolk, wheri she learned the rudiments of the game. Finding the field limited, she entered the architectural school of Columbia University, from which she was graduated with one other girl student. Although backed with a perfectly good diploma, Miss Dornin next found her hardest task, that of convincing some architect that a woman wag quite capable of filling a position In his office. . “At that time architects did not feel a woman would take the work seriously enough,” explained Miss Dornin, “and I trudged around New York, week after week, and. In fact, months before I finally secured a position with Thomas W. Lamb, who has designed more theaters than any other architect In the world. “My position with Mr. Lamb was not an overimportant one at the start, but It meant a great deal, as he began Immediately to teach me Interior decorating and the manner in which to supervise ‘a Job.’ My first really Important job came with the construction of Loew’s Metropolitan In Brooklyn, N. Y. Meeting with some measure of success there Mr. Lamb confined my duties solely to theater work and I have opened many Loew theaters since that time.” Asked If she did not find the task of bossing men rather difficult, Miss Dornin replied In the negative. “To the contrary the workmen on the Jobs •eemingly try to make my work easier. Luring my entire career I have only found one man who was Impossible to deal with and who thought that women were Incapable of the work entrusted to me. I do not believe he would get along smoothly even among men." Miss Grace Dornin, a sister of the architect’s supervisor, In an aspirant to the movie screen. Baskets of spring flowers in soft pastel shades combined with ferns and Southern srnllax effectively banked against tall cathedral candelabra bearing white tapers, made an attractive setting for the marriage of Dena Hurt Mcßride, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. L. F. Hurt, to John W. Hartong, which was solemnized quietly In the home of the bride’s parents. 1906 North New Jersey street, this aft%moon. The Rev. Virgil E.

Ship, Ten Days Overdue, With Crew of 42, Gives Sea Mystery
NEW YORK, Feb. 9.—Another chapter In the annals of the mystery of the sea was written today, following the continued silence of the American cargo carrier Hewitt, which Is now ten days overdue. The vessel of 3,398 tons, gross, carried a crew of forty-two men, was modemly equipped and had a wireless on board. It Is owned by the Union Sulphur Company of this city. On Jan. 20 the Hewitt steamed out of Sabine, Texas, with a cargo of sulphur for Boston, an ordinary eight-day run. It traveled over the regular steamship channels, but has not been seen nor heard of since she* left Sabine—has vanished completely as If In thin air—reminiscent of the fate of the U. S. S. Cyclops, which mysteriously disappeared without leaving any trace, with all on beard. In the early morning of Feb. 2 coast guardsmen at Atlantic City reported they saw a glaring flash in the Atlantic Ocean, followed a moment later by a tremendous explosion. The nature of the cargo of the Hewitt has led to fears that the flash cud explosion reported by the guardsmen may have been caused by an accident to the missing steamer and that the vessel may
