At the J ivr o'Clock Club dinner tendered to Maor cleet Moore, .lames M. Heck made a jplen for a revival of interest iu the Walnut, suggesting that the time was ripp for the enterprise of u eommuuitv theatre and opera house, and that the historic glories of the Walnut entitled It to consideration fSr that pilipose. Concrete, at least, is the announcc- ' went that Walter Wunger, Known to fame as the jouthful producer who saw the tommeicial as well as autistic values in "John I'erguson," lights to which lie acquit cd and also for his matrimonial acquisition of Justine Johnson, one of t'ltf most beautiful women on the stage, has leased the Little Theatre, which is to pass from its bluestocking career to the silk stockings of musical comedies and revue. In some of which, doubt Jess, Miss Johnson will plaj a pi eminent part. The Little Theatre has not been vccessful an a highbrow and socially exclusive institution, l'ossibh the new lease may add ou the words "ot life," with the house (renamed the Philadel phia Theatre) turned over to the type of amusement that the public apparently craves. And while rounding up the rumors of the theatres heie, new and old, it will do no harm to add one that kounds somewhat cxtiuvagunt, uamelj ' that the Metropolitan Opera House is tf be leased as the produi tion center of elaborate levues of the Winter Garden or lollies type. If this is true it would leave theopera all dressed up on Tues day evening nnd nowhere to go, unless rescrt was had to the Academy of Music Icrspbly that change would grieve a lot of opera fans!
