Miss Ruth Page will be.given a wonderful reception Sunday night at the Murat during the concert of the Adolph Bolm ballet and the Little Symphony orchestra. Indianapolis Is prepared to turn out in large numbers to welcome Miss Page on her first appearance in her home town following her triumphant tour of South America and her success In Chicago and New York. Between fourteen and sixteen different ballets will be presented here at the Sunday night concert.

Bolm and his ballet appear tonight in Terre Haute, where it is reported that a capacity house awaits Bolm and Miss Page. -I- -b -IELSLE JANIS. The revue which Elsie -Janis will present at English’s Monday night is based on the experiences of the star In France during the war. Elsie is endeared to the heart of every American soldier by her work of entertainlag the boys while behind the lines in France. Percy Hammond of the Chicago Tribune has this to say: “Elsie Janis and Her Gang—Their ‘bombproof revue’ Is a stimulating and enjoyable reminiscence of the war In its cheerier aspects. “Miss Janis' soldiers are good-natured and able, delectably non-professional In their performances and the unparalleled star herself has never been so radiant as she is in command of her talented platoon.” Enough said. Coming to English's Monday for three days.

SHUBERT C.UETIEg DUE. Jack Nor worth, Harry Watson, Janet Adair and Marguerite Farrell will head a large group of players in “Shubert Gaieties of 1919.” which opens a week’s engagement at the Murat Monday night. This is the first of a series of annual re rues to be produced by the Shuberts. The first of a series and the one coming to the Murat, was produced last July at Forty-fourth Street theater. Unlike most re rues, the Shuberts have given their revue a story. A young millionaire* Jack Potter, tired out with a gay life, fails asleep in his studio and dreams of a young shepherdess whose picture is on a wall of the studio. , Potter takes her to the gay places in New York and Paris before he wakes up from his dream. The show is in two acts and twentyfour' scenes. There is a big cast of principals and a chorus of fifty. Looks like a real show. -1- -|. -|. “SEE-SAW." Miss Marjorie E. Edwards of Terre Haute, who is said to be one of the real finds of the stage, will make her first Indianapolis appearance in “See-Saw” at English’s next Thursday.
