appeared in New Yrk some seasons ago playing „A Night in an

of that travestied music hall performance.

& The engagement of Miss Bingham as the feature drawing

card for the National seems the first step towards

Loew increasing his shows and prices, something predicted

would occur upon his circuit before the season had

passed. Miss Bingham agreed to play at the National for

$1,000. His bill there is costing about $1,800 for the

week. Other „big time“ „Morris acts“ have been looked over,

notably „The Barnyard Romeo.“ Joe Welch and

other features are spoken of, one to be played at the time.

WITH MARTIN BECK‘WAY INSIDE, Variety, Nov. 5, 1910

„Thrown the gauntled“

Editorial content. „5C. TICKET AT NATIONAL.

      The National is to the front with a five-cent ticket.

      Free ladies‘ tickets have been seen in the

Bronx in other days, but they are now a back number as far

as the National is concerned. The Loew tickets

and five cents will admit any one to the National, except

on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays.

      Following the booking of a full week‘s headline act and√

distribution of the five-cent tickets, the National

has thrown the gauntled at many other Bronx houses.

      The five-cent coupons are for matinees only

Jos. Schenck, of the Loew agency, said it was the custom of the

circuit, and in practice all over it.“
