Your keyhole correspondent did not get up to rehearsal last night SO to be perfectly frank, I. don't know any more about this show than I did yesterday. As a matter of fact many of the cast asked Slim to bar the press from further rehearsals as it made them nervous to have a snooper watching them.
Nevertheless, I will take in the last regular rehearsal tonight and the big dress rehearsal Wednesday night, so that you will get the last minute news. Just the same, if the idea of this column is to coax people to buy tickets, it begins to look like a waste of time, because you have already bought 'em, haven't you' At least it is to be hoped that you have waited this long. The little not, crosses are rapidly filling up the boxes on the chart down at Freels. Looks like everybody ers this year. Which such a and his wife intend to see, the Kapsensible thing for everybody to do.

course. The only difference between this circus and Barnums and Ringlings is that here you pay only one price and that entitles you to everything- shows, reserved seat, concert, and everything except food and drink. Could anything be fairer. Of course, another difference between B. B.
and the Kapers is that in the hey day of his power, P. T. never succeeded in corraling for public exhibition anything even remotely resembling the Kiwanis Quints of the Ballet. Slim was tempted to put this act in a special room and charge extra, but his generosity got the best of him and they too can be stared at open mouthed for not one nickel extra. See how the fame of the Kapers is spreading.
