First Nights" on Tuesdays TWE latest rulintf of .ho coal iulmini3trator nermits the the- ntres to be open every weekdny 1 except Monday lor the neNt ten weeks. Considerable confusion originally existed iik to whctlier the present five duvs' cessation of industries applied to the pluy liou.ses, but (lie isit on Thutsday of leading theatrical men to Washington elicited the explicit information that only the Monday closing regulation would be ap plicable in the cusc of musical, diamatic. vaudeville and motion picture attractions. All the thea tres and pictuic houses which ordinarily would have been open Monday will present their bills for the first time next week on Tuesday. Hereafter, tlurefoie, during the operation of Doctor Garfield's liat "first nights" will be Tuesday nights. The foicgoing regulations, how ever, will not be applicable to those motion-picture houses con ti oiled by the Stanley Company, as Stanley V. Mastbaum has de cided to take andvantage of tho Government ruling permitting theatres which burn no fuel to be open on Mondays. An important group of photoplay houses, there fore, including the Stanley, Palnce, Arcadia, Victoria and Ke gent, will be unheated, but open to the public with the regularly billed attractions on this coming Monday. For tho balance of the week they will, of course, be duly warmed, as all the other theaties. In view of this change of theatre openings, it is probable that beginning January 128, tho regular amusement page of the Evening Public Ledger will ap pear on Mondays instead of Saturdays.
