9/13 "Well, I have practically secured an engagement for her with Mr.Forest.It is an ingenue part in 'The Reckoning,' which is to run in New York City all summer, at his theater. If she can come to New York as soon as college closes Mr.and Miss Southard wish her to stay at their home. We can soon tell whether she can play the part or not. If she can't, Mr.Southard will be able to give her 'bits' in his company, but the other part is by far the best engagement if she can make good in it. Both Mr.and Miss Southard say, however, that they must have a letter of consent from her sister before they will undertake launching her in the theatrical world. |
