HIPPODROWIE Conference With Stage Hands Permits Biggest Playhouse to Reopen Monday MANAGERS Not York, Aug. 30. Following the resignation of Charles II. Dillingham ns managing director of the Hippo drome and a conference with union rep resentatives from the stagehands who walked out, the owners of the huge house announced they would reopen "Happy Days" on Monday mid save their box office from more unhappy dnys ladling out dollars to tickctlioldcrs. The Producing Managers' Association, it wnc Bald, nlso had plans to bring other productions out of the strike early next week, and n statement on those revivals is likelv today. Marie Dressier claimed all the credit there vas for this peculiar walkout, saying she led the chorus girls out on her own initlntive nnd the stagehands followed ns an answer to George M. Cohan's oiTcr of $100,000 to the Fidel ity League. The management, however, denied her this glory, unylng the stage hands were the sponsors for the walk out. In addition the mnnagers have made lmln first ncknow-Iedeeil nttemnt to lav their side of the strike situation before I Snmnel finmncrs. with the hone that the head of the American Federation of Labor, having heard the actors' side, would be nble to reopen the twenty three closed theatres on Rroadwny.

The day wns passed In all sorts of jollification and Mr. Doron received his annual vote of thanks from the ap preciative juveniles.

He's dead; but he wns honest and his won derful ideals for this great city still live." The judge made few gestures. For the most part be stood with his hands clasped behind his back, his body as straight as a sapling only his head moving emphasizing each word as it shot from his lips. His three brief addresses were not punctuated by repeated bursts of ap plause. The men listened, smiled when he smiled, and shouted and clapped their hands when he ended his talk. "There is such a thing as talking onesself into defeat. . I'll let the other side do that," be said.
