‘Six Cylinder Love’ Is Hundred Per Cent Yankee Comedy; Dixie Hamilton Wins Personal Triumph on Melody Lane
By WALTER D. HICKMAX. “BABY” is a full grown man. In this case, “Baby” is the sweet term that Marilyn Sterling calls her husband in William Anthony Mecomedy, “Six Cylinder Love.” ♦his baby talk nearly makes, an “oil can” out of Gilbert Sterling, the husband in question, but, you know, even an oil can may be filled with too much oil and the oil can will run over. Maybe explode. The same was true with hubby. “Six Cylinder Love” is a sure fire American made comedy. You meet people who live just off of Main St. They are real people, the kind you see every' day. That’s the value of this corking good comedy. This McGuire success has never been given in this city previous to its current presentation at English’s by the Grand Players. It remained for Charles Berkell and his players to do the big thing this week by giving us two hours of the best comedy entertainment on the American stage today. __ I understand that Berkell is paying higher royalties for this comedy than he ever has done before. This man isn’t afraid to put out real money to get the attractions. “Six Cylinder Love” as being presented at English’s this week is- the best entertainment buy for the prices charged that f have encountered in my twenty odd years handling the theater. Comedy Runs Over With Many Wise Remarks This comedy has not been rated too highly as a piece of entertainment. Here are a few comedy lines which will hand you a laugh: “I would like to see a good second hand car. “So would I.” " “What kind of car do you have, Mr. Stapleton?” William Donroy, an au tomobile salesman asks. ”1 have a Royies Royse,” Stapleton answers. “That's a good cat, too,” Donroy answers. One of the suburban society wives remarks: “My dear, you can't even hire a cook nowdays to do the cooking, so why ruin your husband by making a slave of yourself?” On lifting a whisky glass, one of the “lounge hounds" remarks: “Here is to glorious prohibition, which made every man his own bartender.” And so the fun goes on. There is no need to go into detail regarding the story of "Six Cylinder Love.” I have previously done that in this department. The author of this comely knows how to develop situations which will make one chuckle and laugh and then sit back for a serious thought or two. From a production standpoint, noth ing is to be desired. Even a. brand new wonderful Marmon automobile, furnished by the Nordyke & Marmon Company, is used in the first act. Xearly forgot to tedl you that the back yards of two suburban homes on Long Island usedas the setting for the first act of the comedy is a gem in construction. The other two sets reflect well the atmosphere of the story.
Waller Walks Away With the Acting Honors this Week, It Is Eddy Waller as the “baby” husband, who walks away with the comedy honors of the show. His mannerisms fit right into the part. Easily the best work he has done in Indianapolis. Jean Oliver as the extravagant and foolish wife does some exquisite work. One would expect her to do that with such a part. Others who register include Alice De I-ane, Jack Martin, Ida Belle Arnold. Dixie Loftis, Alice Mason, Norman Wendel, James Le Roy, Larry Sullivan, Don Merrifield, Harry Holmes. William Hall and Roselind Genevieve Leanfe. The play, the cast and the settings all aid in making “Six Cylinder Love” a comedy which will make life a little brighter for all those who see It. My advice is: Don’t miss seeing the Grand Players in “Six Cylinder Love” at English’s this week. -I- -I- -IConceming Walker’s Rerival of Belasoo’s “Girl of Golden West” Stuart Walker has done some, mighty big things at the Murat during his summer seasons, but I doubt if he has ever presented anything as fine and big as “The Girl of the Golden West.” Asa stage vehicle, this Belasco success has stood the test of the years and last night at the Murat it met the test again. The “Girl” is by far Walker’s best production of the current season and it ranks side by side witn “Smilin’ Thru” and "The School for Scandal” of last season. I am not going to discuss the play as a play. I did that completely in discussing the movie version. From a production standpoint. it reveals Walker at his most realistic self. He has never given us a better production nor a better cast. Xeither am I going to dwell on the characterizations as revealed in the story, hut will refer you to the accompanying drawings by Rosenberg. He tells the whole story in a few lines of ink on white paper. “The Girl of the Golden West” is going to make history in Indianapolis this week. The Shriners gave a very near capacity theater party at the opening Monday night. The entire upper floor was sold out and only a few unoccupied seats remained on the main floor. Between acts the Shriners did their own entertaining and afterward there was a dance. Here Is the Great v Cast in Detail Because of the importance of this revival I will give the Walker cast in full as follows: The Girl Blanche Yurka Wowkle. Billy’s squaw Teresa Dale Dick Johnson, a stranger (Ramerrez, the road agent) Coates Gwynne Jack Ranee, gambler and sheriff George Somnee Sonora Slim Eugene Powers Trinidad Joe Jack King Daria Nick, bartender of “The Polka ' William Everts Sydney Duck, a faro dealer Wayne Huff "Happy” Halliday Harding Weer Handsome" Charlie William Kirkland Deputy Sheriff Robert McGroarty Billy Jaekrabbit. an Indian. . .Clark Hoover Ashby, Wells-Pargo agent. .. Aldrich Bowker Jose Castro Walter Poulter Rider of the Pony Express. .Albert Hackett Bucking Billy from Watson’s. Walter Poulter The I lookout Oakley Richey A Faro Dealer Luke Nahallac The Kidge Boys. .Tom Springer. Dave White Jos Beniamin Seagull Concertina Player. .. .George James Poulter Miners. Citizens of the Camp. Etc. Concerning the Work of Four Members of Cast I have only time to consider the work of Blanche Yurka as the girl,
George Somnes as the sheriff-gambler. Jack Ranee; Eugene Powers as Sonora Slim and Coates Gwynne as Dick Johnson (Ramerrez.) Blanche Yurka mounts to the big act, the second, with the ease and assurance of a great artist. That she is, there is no doubt to,that. She is an emotional actress of the highest type. She "fights” with her eyes, her voice, her hands and her whole body in the great card scene. This indeed is the work of a great artist. Side by side with her is the work

of Somnes as Ranee. He is giving us this week on his return the best work of his career. I am sure that Broadway offers nothing finer these days than Somnes’ work In this play. Coates, Gwynne gets In his most convincing work in the second act. Eugene Powers nearly walks away with the third act. Here is careful character work by an expert. I probably should go into detail concerning the cast, but these four claim exceptional mention because of their work. I recommend*every minute of the Walker revival of “The Girl of the Golden West.” To me. Walker and his players have done nothing better in my experience in covering Indianapolis theaters. Don't pass up this great triumph at the Murat this week. The Walker company w-ill attend the 3:30 performance of the movie version today at the Circle. •I- -I- -!- You Will Hear About Her, I>i xie Hamilton Is at Palace. Dixie Hamilton is at the Palace the first half of the week. She sings songs w'hich have a haunting and jazzy swing to r ern. This woman knows how to select her songs. She has not chosen those that have been done to death. Dixie Hamilton has a sort of a combined vaudeville and cabaret way. She Is able to create a vivid mental picture In the minds ~of the audience Mrs. Lillian Nye Ls~ : ... t FOR WOMEN ONLY Heed This Mother’s Advice South Bend, Ind. —“Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription is the only medicine for women that I can recommend.

while she is “acting” a jazz-time song. In her line, she is an artist. She knows her public and she is a good judge of material. She is a sort of a female edyion of A1 Jolson. Miss Hamilton walks away with the current bill at the Palace.

What Co-operation | v Has Done 1 1 Little more than half a century ago, | Gustavus F. Swift borrowed S2O from his n | father and started in the packing business. A | Hard work on his part and on the part of the associates whom he presently gathered . about him caused the tyisiness to grow. \ | When first incorporated, Swift & Company * i had six shareholders. The nation was grow- | ing and needed meat, and the young company grew also. As more money was needed ** § the business was enlarged by enlisting the and | co-operation of more shareholders. R | The first littb plant at Barnstable, Mass., 1 has given way to 23 modem packing plants si = strategically located. More than 400 branch J?* | houses and 600 car routes distribute the % | meat carried in more than 6.000 refrigerator X g cars. rt7g Today Swift & Company’s service in § meat to retailers here and abroad repre- | sents the effort of nearly 100,000 people co- 4 § operating with their savings or daily toil. &>§ More than 45,000 men and women have p 1 co-operated with us by investing their money | in shares of Swift & Company. | Nearly 50,000 men and women who work \ | in these offices, plants and branch houses — 3 g 16,000 of whom also are shareholders — 2 | are giving us their co-operation in building a the business. They take a just pride in the of | promptness and precision of its service and > | in the uniformity and high quality of its J products. Swift’s Premium Hams and Ba- ” i con, “Silverleaf” Brand Pure Lard, Premi- 0 j um Frankfurts and other Swift products are 5 g symbols of their hearty co-operation and of their belief in the Company.

rather unusual fashion. They work in full stage and employ some new scenic effects. Booth and Nina open the show with a bicycle act. The man rides the bicycle and the woman soes a banjo number while dressed in a quaint hoopskirt costume. Murphy and Clark bill their offering as “hoke,” and loud hoakum It Is. The work of Jim and Betty Morgan ajvi their band rather seemed to miss fire when I reviewed the show. I expected more than they gave. The band is a pleasing organization, but
the act lacked the needed punch when reviewed. The movie feature is “When Love Comes,” with Helen Jerome Eddy and Harrison Ford. At the Palace today and Wednesday. -|- .|. .|. ' Broadway Reopens With “Plantation Days” Rerue. The Broadtvay reopened this week with an oil colored revue called “Plantation Days.” The offering is practically the same I as when the show played here earli..r j in the season, although the hat, | been cmpletely changed. The show runs mostly to songs and dances, with a few specialties and a jaz band featured. One of the best bits is a pantomime called “A Wedding Fantasy.” This mock wedding ceremony gathers quite a few laughs.’ Another bit that drew a hand was a parody on the popular jazz song, “Aggravatin’ Papa,” The jazz band which i' programmed as “Wooding's Famous Syncopated Orchestra” runs true to form and like all negro bands gets most out ox “blue” numbers. “Plantation Days” remains at the Eroadway aJI week. (By the Observer.) _ “Hits and Bits” Lives Up to Title at Rialto. The musical comedy offering at the Rialto this week lives up to its title j of “Hits and Bits,” particularly “bits,” | for it is composed chiefly of odds and ; ends of musical comedy and burlesque! bits. Daily and Daily, who have appeared ! in the city before, have been added to ! the cost of the Jenk’s Musical Maids, and are offering a comedy and dancing specialty this Week. Another feature of the show is a dance number by three of the chorus girls. One of tfie chorus girls leads a song number that i gets over. The chorus work was pleasing. The movie feature is “Fury”# with Richard Barthelmess and Dorothy Gish. A real picture. (By the Observer.) • -I- -I- -IThe movies on view today include: "Daddy Long Legs,’’ at Mister Smith's; “The Girl of the Golden : West," at the Circle and “Soul of the Beast. ’’ at the Ohio.
