REDS PLAN NEW ‘mayday; claim Legion Official Says Sept. 14 Is Celebration Date. By United Press COLUMBUS, Ohio, Sept. 11.—Communists and revolutionary’s radical ulan to observe Sept. 14 as a second “May day,” Garland H. Powell, director of the American Legion's national Americanism commission, declared today in an address at the national convention of the Women’s Christian Temperance Union in Columbus. Powel! said he had obtained information that the day would be called International Youth day and that it will be carried into effect by fifty communistic leagues in as many countries. The plans are to hold huge and far-reaching demonstrations in each country the world over, he said. “American Legion posts and units of the auxilairy opposed the first May day celebration this year by holding counter meetings a few days in advance of May day,” Powell said. He stated further, “This second ‘May day’ is really more dangerous than the first observance. It is because a special attempt will be made to appeal to the young persons. If these revolutionary agitators are permitted to work upon the minds of the ignorant and the undeveloped mentality of our youth, there may me serious consequences. The radicals are trying to increase their numbers through undermining our public institutions and through this new method which they have adopted of corrupting the youth of our land.” WANDERLUST‘BUG’ BITES CLYDE HARD Leaves Home on Second Tour, Parents Tell Police. The “wanderlust” bug has bitten Clyde Roger, 16, of 943 Park Ave., again, his parents fear today. Some time ago Clyde left home for six months on a special "travel tour” all of hie own.

Curtis Does Impersonations New Way; Lovett Concentrates On an Orchestra • , ■

By WALTER D. HICKMAN. | '|— i I AMOUS stars of today impress Ir I J u * ia Curtis in an unique way. I I Miss Curtis does not go at the impersonation business in the same old way of being a “near as possible duplicate of the original,” but she gives her impression on the vaudeville stage of the way that the stars impress her. To her, Pola Negri reminds her of a cat because of her vampire ways. Harry Lauder is impersonated as a menkey and Eva Tanguay as a parrot. This woman is so gifted that she gives her impression of Olga Petrova singing “The Chocolate Soldier” in fouw different voices. f You have guessed by this time that Julia Curtis is a gifted and talented entertainer. She is the. easy hit of a strong bill at the Lyric this week. “Yes, My Dear,” is the title of a little musical comedy which has the services of twelve people. The comedy situations are handled much better than we see in the average vaudeville musical playlet. The wedding number is well done. Burns and Wilson appear fn some nonsense called “The Untrained Nurse,” in which the woman of the team goes in for some clever eccentric work. t - George Kalaluhi and company appear in "An Evening in Hawaii,” Times change, you know, because the dancer does not wear the real sherdded wheat dress, but sort of an impression of the famous dress. The impression appears to be satisfactory from any viewpoint or any seat in the theater. The Four American Beauties is the name which announces four singers. T will tell you no more. Have a laugh at my expense. Delbridge and Gilson are singers. Clifton an Rodelio, acrobats, open the show. At the Lyric all week.

Why Concentrate Upon One When You Can Have an Orchestra? George Lovett has been appearing before the American vaudeville public for years in concentration acts. Ke started out concentrating upon a woman pianist and ends up thisseason by concentrating upon an entire orchestra. Lovett walks through the audience collecting pieces of paper upon which are written the names of musical selections. The members of the orchestra are blindfolded on the stage. Lovett reads to himself the name of the selection written by a member of the audience. He speaks not a word. The blindfolded orchestra begins playing the selection. Never were they wrong at any time while I was present. Lovett is concentrating upon his blindfolded-, musicians at the Palace on the new bill. Harry Jolson. a brother of AJ, is J present at the Palace. He Is going i through the same routine which he used last season on the big time. He found it rather hard sailing at first at the Palace yesterday afternoon, hut ended with enough honest appliuse to please any performer. Jack Little is a pianist. He knows how to play selections which will make a vaudeville audience like them.

The “baby” in “Runnin’ Wild” locks up into the eyes of his “father” and asks his “dad” to give him a pool table. My, oh my, how "babies” of today differ in their playthings from their grandparents. The “baby” is played by the elderly A1 Hillier and’ the “father” is another comedian by the name of Frank Harcourt. “Runnin’ Wild" is the second Ed E. Daley burlesque show to be at the Capitol this season. “Runnin’ Wild” lacks some of the needed essentials which Lena Daley’s "Brevities of 1923” possessed. The "wild” show is not strong on singing voices, yet it has an overabundance of slapstick comedy. The chorus is fairly strong on looks and is well costumed. Ilarcourt ar.d Hillier in grotesque and regulation burlesque makeup contribute most of tho comedy. It is slapstick comedy but unusually free of objectionable material. "Runnin’ Wild” can be classed as a clean show, but with sufficient pep to keep up interest. Valeeita’s leopards, a standard vaudevillle attraction, is the headline flash of this show.
