BIOGRAPHIES OF HOOSIER STARS ARE COMPILED Roltare Eggleston Finds Indiana Heavy Contributor to Stage. APPEALS FOR DATA Stage celebrities bailing from Indiana are getting too namerous and have carved their names in such big type that an effort is being made to collect data and prepare a book setting forth the Hoosier State’s contribution to the stage so that all might know just what kind of talent we have in this, the center of America’s population. Names which have long been familiar to the theater-going public were first brought into prominence in this State and they are still proud to be among those other Hoosiers who have risen in the profession of writers, poets and artists. C. Roltare Eggleston, manager of B. F. Keith’s Theater here, has undertaken the task of assembling the biographies of the actors, actresses and vaudeville talent, and it is said to be the first time an attempt has been made to present in book form a single State’s role of members in the theatrical profession. To those at all familiar with the history of the American stage one of the first names of Indiana celebrities that comes to mind is Marilyn Miller, a staf of the first magnitude. Miss MUler’s home is in M‘. Vernon, Ind. Frank Davis, of the vaudeville act, Davis and Darnell, is a Richmond boy and an author as well as an actor. If may not be generally known but Richard Bennett, who has starred for years in Broadway productions, is an Indiana boy. Valeska Suratt, a star in pictures, productions and vaudeville, formerly worked in Indianapolis and claims Terre Haute as her home —as do the Wilton sisters, Mae and Rose, two other “big' timers” of the vaudeville world. Ernestine Myers, a dancer of prominence. is a native of Terre Haute. Frederick Burton, known for his marvelous impersonations of Abraham Lincoln, still retains his home in Gosport and before becoming famous on the stage worked in Indianapolis for George Marott. MANV HOOSIER GIRLS MAKE GOOD OS STAGE. Marion Harris, who holds all records for sales of phonograph reproductions of her voice, maintains a home in Evansville, even though she is now a vaudeville headliner and has a “town house” in Chicago. The name of the Keeley sisters, who appeared in stock at the Grand Opera House, is still remembered although the name and the personnel of the act has been changed to Stewart and Keeley and the combination Is now a (lancing act. Indianapolis is their home when the season la closed. Earle Reynolds and Nellie Donegan, said to be the champions of all champions 'on roller skates, have their home in Rensselear. John Oleson, of the vaudeville team, Oleson and Johnson, is m Indiana boy and received his educa- : tion at Richmond. You will find How- j arl and his famous troupe of educated ponies at Bloomington when they are j not entertaining the “kiddies” on the I Keith circuit. Bert Kenny, famous for his blackface character work, Is from New Albany, while Billy Link, another blackface comedian, has now retired and lives in Culver. Julius Tannen and Stuart

Barnes, two of the best known monoiogists that the stage has ever kit- vn, have Indiana homes. OPERA STAR MADE lIIMBLE BEGINNING. Mme. Cahier (nee Walker) made her debut in opera from a humble beginning In the Hoosier State and is now known the world over as a great operatic star. Every one has heard of Orville Harrold, also a native of Indiana, and so is Elsa Ryan, who starred in “Peg o’ My Heart” after that play had been produced by Lauret'e Taylor. The Hart sisters, two talented local girls, seen here with William Rook, are just beginning on a career that seems to lead to fame and fortune. Norma Gregg, pianist, vocalist and writer of songs, formerly lived in Indianapolis. “Chic” Sale is not an Indiana product, having been reared in Illinois, but he made bis home for several years in Indianapolis and gave his first professional entertainment here. These are just a few of the best known names in the limelight at present, and it is Roltare Eggleston's job to find the others and get enough facts In book form so that the world may know of Indiana’s professional status in the theatrical world. Actors, actresses and vaudeville talent are urged to send a short biography, with photograph, to Keith's Theater, Indianapolis.

CONCERNING ROBERT B. MANTELL

Robert B. Mansell and Genevieve Hamper will close their engagement at Engwill r> matinee this afternoon in which they will appear In “Merchant of Venice” and a performance tonight of “Richard OT.” Last night they presented “Macßeth.” In Macbeth. Miss Hamper has an opportunity as in possibly nothing else to display her ability as an actress and she rises to the opportunity. She puts into the character of Lady Macßeth all the hardness and the cruelty that can be crammed Into the characterization. She belies her beautiful physical appearance with the characterization of a woman without a soul, willing to go to any extreme to achieve her ambitiors. Mr. Mantell plays the part of the weak but ambitious Thane of Glamis, growing bolder with each step of his crime and j with the encouragement of his wife and ! the weird sisters until he makes all Scotland a slaughter house. The characterization is well carried out through the moments of indecision, the prodding of ambition and the hours of near madness. Others most deserving of praise were John Alexander as Macduff and Guy j Lindsley as Malcolm. The cast of Macbeth follows: | Macbeth, .a general in Duncan’s army.. Mr. Mantell First Witch Miss Agnes Elliot Scot Second Witch .... Mr. Edward Lewers ! Third Witch Miss Theresa Colburn ; Duncan, King of Scotland Mr. A. C. Henderson Malcolm, Duncan s Son Mr. Guy Lindsley Lenncrx, a nobleman .. Mr. John Knight * Sergeant Mr. Aidis Bartlett Ross, a nobleman.Mr. Franklin Salisbury Banquo, a general in Duncan's army..

Apparition Mr. Guy Hawk's Second Apparition Miss Georgia Fox Third Apparition Miss Bessie James An Officer Mr. Abraham Ivory A Doctor Mr. Frank Barry Lady Macßeth ~ Miss Genevieve Hamper The performance was attended by a good crowd In which were a great many school children and high school studanij. - -- k. i

ONE AMERICAN AND 2 FRENCH PLAYS OFFERED ‘Montmartre’ and ‘Madame Pierre’ Worthy of More Than Mention. OTHER RIALTO GOSSIP By DIXIE HINES. NEW YORK, Feb. 25— Two French and one American play ~ r as produced last week. It must be regretfully chronicled that the two i French plays impressed this chron icier considerably more than did “Desert Sands” by Wilson Collison vhich had a premiere with Norman Trevor and a small cast at a small ; theater. It proved to be a decidedly j languid affair. ( Both of the imported play—“Mont- | martre” at the Belmont and “Madame Pierre” at the Ritz—were interesting, but by far the more interesting was the former. Indeed, this play and the manner of its production all contributed to ' making it one of the important off.-ring- | of the season, and if the critics were divided, the public gave unanimous ap- ■ proval. “Montmartre” is a play of the | loves of the cocottes of the M- ntmartre I district in Paris, with the Moulin Rouge their temple. Pierre Frondale wrote it and Benjamin Giazer adapted it. It was presented as the first offering of a now group of noted players, the Players’ Assembly, they call themselves, and it introduced to New York in her first English role, Galina Kopernak late of Moscow. The play grips and impresses, especially as produced by the Players. It tells of a young and attractive cocotte, a daugher of the Moulin Rouge who Is taken from her surroundings to live with a young composer and her subsequent surrender to the call of the life of pleasure. She leaves her lover ffir Montmartre, leaves Montmartre with a new lover and is again rescued by her former lover only to be lost to him when the call back to pleasure is insistent. This is i grim, faithful story and grimly and faithfully It was played, not alone by Miss Kopernak, who was a veritable magnet of charm, grace, beauty and talent, but by the great caßt., numbering more than fifty,' of which Helen Ware, Helen Lowell, Wlnnifred Harris, Mabel Frenyenr, Rose Winter, Brandon Hurst, Frank Doane, Clarke Silvernail, Arthur Hobl and Frank Connor were most conspicuous. And the play has been directed so Skillfully, and staged with such unusual good taste and effectiveness, that if the Players’ do nothing more they will have justified their existence, while Miss Kopernak takes a commanding position as one of our most interesting recruits. “MME. PIERRE” IS CLEVERLY WHITTEN. “Mme. Pierre” is by Eugene Brieux, with a translated version by Arthur Hornblow, Jr., and was produced by William Harris at the Rita Theater, with Estelle Wlnwood, Marjorie Wood, Roland Young, Fuller Mellish, Cecil Yapp, and others. It proved to be cleverly written and smartly acted. Twice before, if this writer is correct, it has been done here, once as “The Incubus” and at another time as “The Affinity.” The late Lawrence Irving acted it. Briefly, it is a story of domestic misadventures. The wife is a hoydenish minx, and she drives her sedate husband to distraction. Finally he suspects her of Infidelity and drives her forth. This, he surmises, will bring peace to his home. But the wife Is an actress, and she stages s spectacular suicide and Is flCptitlnnad Eight.)

I have been informed on good authority that Mr. E. H. Hothern, after his recent appearance at the Marat, stated to his manager that Indianapolis would not be included as a city to be visited on his next American tour, because the box office receipts for his last engagement here were not of satisfying proportions. Meaning in plain English, 1 take it, that. Indianapolis theater-goers didn't spend money to that degree which would please Mr. Sothern. Two years ago I heard rumors that Mr. Sothern threatened to eliminate Indianapolis in his 1922 tour, but he came here Just the same. This week at English’s Mr. Robert B.

business. Mr. Mantell will terminate his engagement tonight, and already plans are being made for his return to Indianapolis next year. It is my opinion that no star gains anything by announcing he is going to punish a city by not appearing in it again. Mr. Sothern is “punishing” only those who actually want to see him. He Is preventing only his friends from seeing him If he lives up to his purported statement of eliminating Indianapolis from his tour in 1924. Mr. Mantell leaves Indianapolis tonight with the thought that he has done something to make at least twenty-five people happier. Seats for twenty-five blind children of the S‘ate School for the Blind, were reserved for the Saturady matinee (Continued on Page Eight.)

Murat Theater Offers Divided Bill Next Week Margaret Anglin Appears First Half, Leo Dilrichstein Second. THURSTON AT ENGLISH'S Next week at the Murat Margaret Anglin in “The Woman of Bronze ’ and Leo Ditrichsteln in “The Great Lover” will share the week. Miss Anglin will open on Monday night and Mr. Ditrichsteln will open Friday night. On Monday night at English’s Thurston, a magician, will open a week’s engagement. Eddie Leonard, famous minstrel man, will be the headliner at B. F. Keith's next week. The Choy Ling Hee troupe ol Oriental wondejr workers will be at the Lyric next week. The Park will shelter next week another Columbia Wheel show, called “London Belles.” -I- -I- -!- ANGLIN DIE MONDAY AT THE JURAT THEATER. On Monday night ut the Murat Margaret Anglin will open a three-day engage: ent in “The Woman of Bronze.” Depleting a woman whose brain is as powerful as her emotions, Margaret Anglin portrays in the character of Vivian Hunt a powerful individual. Leonard Hunt, the famous sculptor of the play, has not always been successful and in his fight from obscurity to fame, a strugg'e in which hts wife, Vivian, has constantly cared for his physical comforts and guarded against any Interference with bis work. She has been the inspiration of his success and she glories in her part in that success which is about to reach its fullest expression In the making of a war memorial which is planned to win a prize of a million dollars offered for the best memorial of its kind by a group of wealthy art patrons. It is at this point in the life of the sculp'or that a passing storm of romance with a young cousin of the wife’s who is visiting their home, wrecks their happiness as well as the sculptor’s ability to do effective work on his memorial masterpiece. A struggle for the love of the sculptor follows between the two women until “Hunt” leaves his wife, to go with the young cousin to a sordid existence of hollow disappointment and final disillusionment. Meanwhile In the life of Vivian Hunt, her heart battles with the dictates of her head, at once revealing the aim and aimlessness of life, the worth of unselfish aspiration and “the unutterable anguish of every broken and bleeding thing since the world began. Miss Anglin has surrounded herself with well known players. -I- -I- -IFAMOUS MAGICIAN DUE MONDAY AT ENGLISH’*. Thurston, the famous magician presenting a show for old folks, young folks and all sorts of folks, will be seen at English’s next week beginning Monday evening. There will be matinees Wednesday and Saturday. Thurston is a great treat for the younsters and will prove equally delightful for grown-ups. His performance is In three acts and his new and porgeous stage setting will take the children and grown-ups from one magic land into another. Since his last visit to Indianapolis, Thurston has wonderfully elaborated his program. He will present the best of what was old and many new illusions that are positively startling. He has also advanced. His manlpualtion of cards, coins a :d other objects Is quite interesting, for here he possesses remarkable digital skill. He also has a pleasing conversational manner which Is one ot his chief requisites. During the past sixteen years Thurston has visited practically every great city of the world, given performances to more than fifteen millions of people of all nationalities and entertained kings and (Continued on Page Seven.)

New Plays Headed This Way

ONE WEEK OF SHUBERT VAUDEVILLE AT MURAT. At last Indianapolis is to have a week of Shubert vaudeville. Arrangements have Just been completed whereby a t r ;al ! will be given of the drawing qualities of Shubert vaudeville. For a week cunri- | menclng Monday afternoon, March 0, the attraction at the Shubert-Murat Theater will be Lew Fields revue, “Snapsho;s” which will continue through the entire ' week. Matinees will be given daily comj menclng Monday. Prices will be popular, ; and we are promised a splendid bill sur- | rounding Mr. Lew Fields, who has not | been In Indianapolis since 1917 when jhe appeared at the Murat as the star of “Step This Way.” -I- -l- -1THE FOLLIES DUE IN MARCH. At English's some time in March “Ziegfeld Follies,” now in its fifteenth edition, will begin its annual engagement in this city. The “Follies’’ is an '‘institution”— its coming being like the advent of the ; circus—and the grand rush for seats will soon be in evidence. ! Mr. Zlegfeld's big musical revue this i season has an unusual number of contributors to its making. The libretto is by Channing Pollock, who has before performed the same office for the “Follies.” but in addition to h'.s work there are additional lines and lyrics by Gene Buck, Willard Mack, Ralph Spence and Bud de Silva. The music has been supplied by Victor Herbert, Rudolph Friml and Dave Stamper, each of whom have had a hand in supplying the tunes for this year’s production. The scenery is by .Toseph Urban, the costumes were designed by James Reynolds, and it was staged by Edward Royce, who was assisted in rehearsing the dialogue by George Marion, all being done under the direct supervision of Ziegfeid himself. -I- -I- -1“ABBAHAH LINCOLN" HAS BEEN BOOKED. John Drink water’s "Abraham Lincoln,” with Frank McGlynn, will be the attraction at English's for one week beginning Monday, March 6. William Harris, Jr., has only one company on tour in this remarkable play, and as it is now headed for a long tonr to the Pacific coast, this engagement will afford local playgoers their only opportunity for many months, if not years, to see one of the most inspiring work of dramatic art to reach the stage daring the present decade. -I- -I- -Imurat trying to book BARRYMORE IN “THE CLAW." There is a strong possibility of the Shubert-Murat Theater securing for its attraction for a short engagement next month of three nights and Saturday matinee, Lionel Barrymore in “The Claw,” Mr. Hopkins is sending his representative, Melville B. Raymond, to Indianapolis next week to confer with Nelson C. Trowbridge, manager of the ShubertMurat Theater. It is to be hoped that arrangements can be made for Mr. Barrymore's appearance in the much discussed play, “The Claw.” Lionel Barrymore in “The Claw” has had a long successful engagement in New York City and Jumped directly to Chicago at the Princess Theater, after playing Detroit and Cincinnati. Principal in support of Mr. Barrymore is Miss Irene Fenwick. E. F. Albee was recently approached by one of the leading Broadway producers to induce him to release the White sisters, Thelma and Marjorie, who scored a big hit at the Palace this week. Asa result the two clever youngsters will be featured in a musical comedy next season. x|* -I- -IJohn Steele, the yonng tenor formerly of the “Follies” Is proving one of the most popular headliners on the Keith Circuit and will play a return engagement at the Palace next week.
