JVIAHAGERS ACT AS
-SCENE SHIFTERS
' Stage Hands on Strike, Chorus
Girls Help Producers; Arbitra
;'i tion Committee Fails.
New York. Aug. 21, (I. N,' 8.)
A smile of contentment brightened
'thj face of Lee and J. J. Sbubert,
Z theatrical producer, this morning.
'They had qualified as first-class
scene shifters. "
' When the musicians and 'stage bands
at the Winter Garden joined the actors'
."strike Wednesday night, the manage
ment was faced with the alternative of
o. closing the house or jumping' into tne
breach themselves.
.Peeling- oft their coats, the Shuberts
'"and other officials of the theatre and
'", even choros girls seized the countless
ropes .-: controlling the various scenes.
In a short time the, scenes had been
. properly placed and the Shuberts wiped
perspiration from their dripping brows.
In the meantime a runner had been
sent down Broadway to obtain musicians.
AH he could find was a lone piano play
iii er. With this combination the big show
J opened, and, .according to the manage
tl mem, not s person in the audience left
when the situation was explained. The
Winter Garden will be kept open in this
h -manner as long as people come to see
J the show, it was announced.
,1, Gloom again pervaded the ranks of
actors, managers and theatre lovers to
IJ day when the committee of playwrights,
iii summoned by Eugrene Walter and Avery
Hop wood to arbitrate between the mana
m gers and players, admitted it had
J "signally failed." It had been hoped the
III playwrights would bring about a sat-
". Isfactory settlement by today.

mate show houses in Chicago were

pointed to little or no immediate prob

stage hands and musicians, striking

to keep its lights burning last night.

BDSO
FORMALLY
PROTESTS AGAINST
ROUTE IN .LOW PASS
Bases His Objection on It Being
Longer and More I Costly
Than High Pass Road. .
A formal protest against the selection
of the Low Pass route for the Eugene-
Florence - road has been filed for the
records of the state highway commis
sion by Chairman Benson. Benson fa
vored the. High Pass route. but he was
outvoted by Commissioners Boota ana
Thompson. ;
His objection to the Low Pass route
is based on. the report of the engineers
that it is three miles longer to the near
est shipping point and seven miles
longer to a connection with the Pacific
highway and that its estimated cost will
be approximately S250.000 more.
In addition, it is claimed, that the lo
cation leads through overflow ; land,
making the problem of drainage a seri
ous one. :.: .
Besides the lesser cost of construc
tion, he i asserts that the High Pass
route carries 95 per cent of the traffic
from the Lake creek valley, the only
settlement of any consequence on the
entire road..
The two passes are approximately two
miles apart and the High Pass has a
greater elevation of 800 feet. '
When the location was made, at the
last meeting of the highway commission.
Commissioner Thompson gave ' as his
reasons for voting for the - Low Pass
that it was an all year route and served
