Into the Fall Season
On Monday evening of this week Ted Barron,
the writer of a nUlllber of successful songs in

radio program were a scenc from the lllusical
comedy, "Go Go," in which all the principals
took part; George Je,;sell, from the Winter
Garden; Saranoff, the violin virtuoso, and xvIil·ialll
Ihttista, the child star or "Humoresque."

the Selwyn Theatre, New York City, seems bent
upon creating history as one of the most "s uc­
cessful Summer shows which has appeared in
sOllle seasons. All the New York critics na v e
