has to meet a hospital bill. She made
a pledge of $lO and stated: “I made
the pledge in good faith—l have noth

warm except a thin coat three years
old. I am willing to wear that coat
all the winter if somebody will lend

Women Are Selling
Tickets for Revue
- If every seat in the Auditorium
isn't filled ¥riday at “One Minute
After Midnight” it will be because
the women of Atlanta have lost their
power of salesmanshlip, for a score or
two of them were in the office build
ings Thursday, offering the tickets at
$1 each.
Ed Schiller of the Grand and Hugh
Cardoza of the Lyric have announced
that every act on their week’'s bills,
besides several obtained from other
cities, will take part in the revue.
The orchestra will be made up of
seventy-five musicians, drawn from
every theatrical orchestra in Atlanta.
“Atlanta’'s quota in the national
contribution to the Actors’ Fund has
been fixed at $10,000,” said Chairman
Schiller. “The special matinee of
‘Pollyanna’ at the Atlanta Theater
Friday afternoon will bring in a large
part of that sum, and we depead
upon the midnight revue to get the
rest. The Auditorium will seat more
than 6,000 persons, which ought to
mean more than $6,000. It will be a
$lO show, too.” |
The Auditorium show will begin at
11 o’clock Friday night, so that thea
ter-goers may go from other amuse
ments to the midnight show without
a wait, But the big surprise act will
begin at exactly one minute after
midnight. The show will run for two
hours or more,
