This time they will give two performances only, and if successful will come each season to Indianapolis. The repertoire for Sunday matinee will be "Madame Butterfly,” with the

ROUNDING ROUND THEATERS With

by Walter and. hickman RORPECTS for an unusual January, February and March ■■J in the theater are before us. The list includes grand opera, famous stars, at least two highly successful revues, several splendid recitals, orchestral music and two representatives of the Barrymore family in addition to Cyril Maude. Personally. I* feel that we are going to have exceptional theater for the first three months of the year. It looks like the good old days to have Margaret Anglin and Chauncey Olcott back with us. Two feature movies will also claim attention of Murat and English patrons soon. We who go to thq theater will have a busy ninety days. •!• •!• - L Among the many Christmas cards I received from professional artists was one from our very good friend, Elizabeth Patterson. A Stuart Walker season here would not be a season at all without this gifted character woman. I have seen her lift light little plays to the realm of real enteralnment by her work. •I- -i- -IHave been asked by some of the young people of this city who attend universities and colleges in the East to tecommend several "real” shows to see in New York while on their way jack to school after the holidays. Here are the ones I would like to see: Jeanne Eagles in “Rain” at Maxine Elliott’s; “Tarnish” with Tom Powers at the Belmont; Madge Kennedy and W. C. Fields in "Poppy” at the Apollo; Fred Stone and Dorothy Stone in "Stepping Stones" at the Globe and the Greenwich Village Follies at the Winter Garden. -I- -I- -IHere i3 a strange contrast. I stood rear the door of a box office of a leading theater the other night. A man called to get four tickets for Christmas night. The house was sold out. He declared that he telephoned for tickets at 6 o’clock and that he was informed they would be laid away. The gentleman at the box office explained several times that such a condition must be error because the lower fleor was sold out by 4 o’clock that afternoon. The customer then called the ticket gentleman a “crook.” Th*s seller of tickets received the compliment with an effort. The next second this same ticket seller called hack another man who had forgotten his change and gave him his money.
