Violet Buckley Says
Life on Stage Meant
Doing 0ne8 Heat
"A g'rl can do .'one thing' infsl
most any line of stage endeavor ex
cepting burlesque," says Violet IJuck
li y, who is one of the leading wom
en with "Sam Howe's Joy of Life"
coming to the Cayrty theater thi
week. "In burlesque," she continues,
"a girl mii'-t be qualified to almost
pity line that is presented for her to
nc.-omplii.il n the entertainment.
Miss r.uekley, when interviewed,
went further into explanation.
"When I was in amsiral comedy
v ith the tcveral producer of 'girl
shows' my work was cut out for me
and my opportunities were limited
according. With Sam Howe it it
different," she said. "Of course Mr.
Howe knew what I could do before
he engaged me, and is too good s
showman to let me off with anything
less than the limit of my capabilities.
He lets me dance and sing and give
me role stage-folk class a 'ingenue'
to keep me active in' the variou
cencs. And Mr, Howe i leader
whom we all eacrerly follow. He does
not say 'Go on I' but he ay 'Come
on!' and suits the action to the
word.
Hilda Lee and Boyd Ls Dero,
danrer of international reputation,
will be seen in a fiery interpretation
of the Argentine tango in "The
