New York Union Club Aims to Give Stage to Unseen Talent
The Union Club founded by Irene Ackerman in New York plans to revive dramatic clubs rather than business or social groups. It will stage small entertainments at the Waldorf Astoria and later support theatre productions with donors from owners, to help playwrights and shy actors gain exposure. The club, which has two meetings and a slate of officers including Mrs H Herbert Knowles as president, seeks to revive local dramatic activity and provide opportunities for overlooked talent.

At Barnard College the student body president race between Eleanor Jay and Florence Wyeth triggered allegations of ballot irregularities and proxy voting. The contest featured tense episodes, theater ticket rewards, and strong reactions from both sides, with no action taken by the meeting. Miss Jay, described as peaceful, narrowly won the large-advantage victory amid emotional scenes. The piece also shifts to a separate fashion-pattern notice from the New York Tribune.
