" " " " Orpheum Headliner Thinks Wildwood Glorious; She's in Love With the City; a nd She's NOT Married "Bur-r-r! I'm half-frozen, but oh! II have had such fun." said winsome Bes- ' sie Winn, headliner at the Orpheum, yesterday. "You see, the.v asked me to for mally open the skating season at your Wildwood Park to-day. I fairly love to skate, but do you know something? I actually envied the youngsters out there as they flew down the hilsl on their sleds. I used to do It like that once, too, but not now!" Like so many transients, Miss Wynn has'always judged Harrisburg by its business section only. "I had no idea your city wasTsuch a beautiful one," she said. "It cannot be appreciated unless one moves about. We motored to the skating pond and 1 noticed such splendid homes all the way along the River Front. I have nevpr been here in the winter before. Things look so different." ROtarianium is a new idea to the little singer. This Is the first time she has ever been identified with it. She wanted it explained to her, its mean ing -and aims. She thinks the leasing of the theater for the entire week by the organization a clever scheme for raising money for the Belgians and is doing her best to draw the crowds and please them. She spoke of her grand opera selection from "Madame Butter fly." ■She's (•ding lo "I'roduce," Too "That is the kind of work 1 like best to do. 1 am so happy in the heavier music, but the managers say the public prefer me In the simple, I'atcjiy songs.

" 'Leap year' is the one in which 1 am to star. I would be in It now, hut the war conditions made it inadvisable to start this season. The theatrical world of New York has been seriously affected by the conditions in Europe worse than in any other city. Our other offerings will be Three"Brides' Little Sister.' 'Pink Pavilion' and 'Auc tion Pinochle.' all light musical plays on the order of 'Adele' and 'The Merry Widow." Did you notice the accompaniment to my 'Madame Butterfly' song? Isn't it wonderful? It is supposed to be played only by a symphony orchestra of forty or more pieces, and those few men under, Mr Yeager do wonders with it." "Is there not a Mr. Bessie Wynn? she was asked. "Oh, no, indeed! That was only a 'story" about my husband's waiting every night for mc at the stage door. I live with my mother in New York. My three sisters are all married and each of them has a baby. Indeed, all my friends (and I have very few among theatrical people) seem tn have babies! The nearest I come to it is a new 'Baby' song I am studvlng." Bessie's a Trail Hitler As Miss W.vnn's number does not require her to be at the theater before 9 o'clock, she decided to soend the early pari of last evening at the taber nacle. "I hit the trail when I wus 12 years old." she said, "and I have never for gotten. The effect has lasted." To-morrow afternoon, if the busy skuters at Wildwood keep their eyes open, they may see a certain winsome little lady in a fur-edged black velvet top coat cutting the figure 8 iji the company of—well, a popular bride of Harrisburg's younger set.
