UNION FROWNS ON EDUCATION BOARD i lABOR APPOINTEE

Governor to Be Notified His Choice in Disfavor With C, L\ U, Governor McCray is to be notified by the Central Labor Union that the representative labor body of Indianapolis does not favor his recent appointment of Mrs. Nellie C. Warren, Indianapolis, to the Indiana State Board of Education. The State law provides that labor shall be represented on the education board, said Adolph J. Fritz, sec-retary-treasurer of the Indiana State Federation of Labor, at the meeting Os the C. L. U. Monday night. Mrs. "Warren is not connected with the labor movement in any way, shape or form, Fritz declared. “She is an employe In the welfare department of the Ell Lilly Company, I believe,” Fritz said. The C. L. U. went on record as disfavoring the appointment. The secretary was Instructed to communicate the action of the body to the Governor. Manufacture of work shirts in prisons, especially the Pendleton reformatory, was discountenanced by the central body. The action followed reading of a Communication from the Union-Made Garment Manufacturers Association of America. Speaking on the resolution, advocating the use of only union made shirts, Fritz declared that “as long as we have a Governor over In the Statehouse who Is moving heaven and hell to get a shirt factory over at Pendleton Reformatory, such S movement as this cannot be expected to be successful.” Fritz urged union men to unite in support of a campaign to popularize union-made shirts. James Leckler, Ft. Wayne, organizer for the Machinists organization, declared that conditions among working people of Indianapolis are the worst he has seen in considerable travel about the country. “Indianapolis may be a good place for the aristocracy to live In, but it is not for the working man,” ha declared.

Kaufman and Connelly Strip Main Street of Its Town Pump but Install a Broadcasting Radio Station

By WALTER D. HICKMAN ONE is the old town pump from If . I Main Street in Miilersville. L J Main Street has lost Its character and has become a sort of a false Broadway. Even dear old Aunt Sarah Parks no longer makes strawberry jam. Auntie has chased away all old timo small town habits and has built a house which is not a home but a palace. She even has a butler. Auntie wears a swell low neck evening gown and fills her guests with spirits from the cellar. She even buys cigarettes for both her male and female guests. Oh, Auntie of Main Street these days is a speedy old dame. No cabbages or beans grow in her backyard. Even the good old apple tree felt the sharp blows of the ax. Auntie is changed and so has Main Street. Main Street Is no longer content to let Broadway be the only street where there are bright lights. Millersville is some lively dump. The old street has gone hog wild. There are r.o “hicks” on the Main drag in Millersville. This is just my own way of telling you the high spots of George S. Kaufman and Marc Connelly’s new comedy, “The Deep Tangled Wildwood” which saw the light of day in a large city for the first time Monday night at English’s The autors of this new comedy are responsible for “Dulcy,” “To the Ladies" and “Merton of the Movies.” The new piece was first known as “West of Pittsburgh” and then changed to Its present title. Here Is a Smart Comedy That Has Some New Situations In judging anew play, I alone am responsible. Let everyone have their own Idea. On any first performance of anew play, one must remember that It is still In tho creative period. The authors have a bully new idea, that of burlesquing Main Street or I probably should say it 11s a merry, merry satire on the main drag of a small town. The thing in a nutshell is just this: James Parks Leland went to New York from Miilersville to write plays. When he turned out a bad ono, he decided to return to Miilersville so he could get acquainted again with his dear old Aunt Sarah Parks, to visit the old flshin’ hole and to drink again out of the old oaken bucket. There also was a sweet little country girl by the name of Mary Ellen who was left behind when Leland shook Main Street dust of his feet. He plans to have his lawyer friend of New York, Harvey Wallick to follow him in nature’s own playground. This is where the great fun comes in The old town was no longer a “berg.” It was worse than that — a make believe city. All grown up and watered with jazz music and the radio instead of the ojd oaken bucket. Dear old Auntie had blossomed out as a shallow flapper of around sixty and the girl, who was left at home, had become an impossible cigarette smoking shadow of a real girl. Oh, It was some shock to Leland and he was some shock to the folks back home. They discovered that he didn’t look like he came from New York but from some hick town. This is grand and glorious fun, the way the authors have developed it. The real satire comes in when Leland discovers that a girl trained to be an artist In New York City Is the real article. Leland gets his chance to tell the home folk what silly fools they have teen in decorating Main Street with gas light instead of sun and moonlight.. Splendid Cast of Types Puts Over the Smart Lines The cast has been well selected for types. James Gleason as Leland and Robert McWade as Wallick, the lawyer, nearly walk away with the show. The cast is as follows: Joe Inrlls Ralph Sipperly Mary Ellen Mildred Booth Deacon Flood James K. Applebee James Parks Leland James Gleason Harvey Wallick Robert McWade One of the Largest Popular Price Stores in the State.

Better get a look at this show before it gets into New York, because I believe it will be there for quite a spell. Also, this is to let you know that English’s has opened its season. At English’s all week, -I- -I- -IMeniories of Side Show Days Como Back Just Now Everybody expected something to happen at Keith’s yesterday. It did happen, but not what was expected. The headline act is “Leah, Maid O'Mist.” Just how this act was ever given headline position is a mystery to me. It recalled to me the good old sideshow days, when Prof. Somebody placed the “leetle lady” In a trunk and then thrust many swords and knives through the trunk containing the lady. Then the "leetle lady” appeared unharmed when the trunk was reopened. The only difference between the act now at Keith’s and the old sideshow stunt Is that the sideshow also threw in an Oriental dancer. We don’t get the dancer at Keith’s this week. When the Leah stunt was over yesterday afternoon there was barely a ripple of applause. Not even good

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

edy was presented. Connelly and Kaufman came on from New York to see how the first night audience accepted their new “brain child.”

showmanship is used in presenting Ltah. Why, oh, why? That is the question, A1 Wohlman sings some songs and must make the song pluggers very happy. He even insists that the audience sing popular published numbers, Emile Nathans and Julia Sully appear In a song and dance offering which closes the show. The most interesting thing on the bill is some colored movies showing the recent Westchester BUtmore Fashion Show, New York. Here Is real colored photography. The gowns exhibited are beauties and so are the models. George MacFarlane, a singer who is well known, has a song offering of pleasing worth. He is assisted by a pianist and a good looking girl who takes part in several song pictures.

Ann Butler and Hal Parker live up to their billing. The title of their act is “Don’t Make Me Laugh.” Nobody died from laughing while I was present. Rather sad material. Broker is presenting the best trained bear act I have ever witnessed on any stage. His bears walk, ride bicycles, dance and do many other stunts. A really good act. William Smythe appears In a "descriptive song cycle.” He gives his impression of musical comedy stars. Johnson and Baker are ’hat jugglers.

The audience Monday night was only “slightly” larger than the cast. Which means that about 2,300 persons out of a possible 2,500, who could have found seats in the theater, missed a real treat. The cash customers—almost enough to pay the wages of the orchestra at the present advanced rates for musicians—enjoyed every minute of the show. —TT';"i ' I'HWitlM “Dangerous |$ People" is clever, fen' ' , 'V'JySS extremely clever.

One acts to disintegrate the film at all stages of formation. The other removes it without harmful scouring. Able authorities proved these methods effective. Then a newtype tooth paste was created to apply them daily. The name is P*psodent. Leading dentists the world over now advise it. Careful people of some 50 nations use it every day. Natural—gentle Pepsodent also multiplies (he alkalinity of the saliva, to better fight mouth acids. It multiplies the starch digestant in saliva, to better digest starch deposits.

that also is a part of the plot. Then there is a detective. Why Is it that nowadays the audience always suspects a detective? Maybe “The Bat” had something to do with it Anyway, the detective is right on the job and he even pulls his gun in the end in the usual fashion. The money shows up right at tho start of the play in a most surprising manner. It is contained in a wo’-n leather bag. From then on to the end somebody always has the bag, but no one person has it long. All this, of course, is confusing to any one who has had sufficient patience to read this far. Which is another way of saying it wouldn’t be fair to tell the story. But this ought to give you the drift. Now, about the cast. William Courtenay plays the lead. He does it well. He is just as clever as the plot. The others are Virginia Hammond, Frances Howard, George Parsons and Pierre wVtkin. Ajl of them give finished performances. Now then: If you don’t see “Dangerous People” you are missing a comedy treat you will regret you have missed when your wiser friends tell you about it. Why let the orchestra get lonesome when you can enjoy yourself, too? (By F. B.) -I- -I- -INew Kind of Minstrel Act on View at Palace Anew sort of minstrel act Is the feature of the Palace bill for the first half of the week. This Is the "Rainbow Six,” composed of five men and a woman. These players have facial make-ups tiiat represent six colors of the rainbow; one make up is red, another blue, and others are purple, white, brown and black. This is not strictly a minstrel act, but has some good singing, dancing aqd a good quartet. Manning, Hall and company provide a whole flock of faughs. The company refers to the front and rear legs of the horse that does some funnydancing and enters Into the lines of the act. The woman Is almost a giantess compared to the man, and this disparity adds a great deal to the comedy. The Daughertys, a man and a woman, have a comedy sketch on life insurance and matrimony. The girl Is selling policies and the man is looking for a matrimonial bureau wife. Good comedy lines. Lewis and Rogers present two Italians, one educated and the other still struggling with the mazes of Ameri-

can slang. Irish dancing and pun comedy make up the act. Corinne and Dick “Timber have a novel opening act, with dancing and violin solos. “Safety First” is an Indianapolis police film showing traffic daggers and rules. The feature photoplay Is “Out of the Dust.” Short films complete the bill, which will be 3hown at the Falace today and Wednesday. (By an Observer.) -I- -I- -IAerial Act Commands Attention at Lyric Kafke and Stanley at the Lyric this week call their act “Limits of Daring,” and they live up to their billing. One of the boys does a heel-drop on a swinging trapeze that is just about the most thrilling stunt that I have ever seen in a vaudeville aerial act. This one closing act that is worth more than waiting to see. Fulton and Robbins have a rube act entitled “At the Town Pump.” It is rather noisy slap stick comedy that easily won the audience. Arthur Alexander and Company present “Dixieland to Broadway” a sort of vaudeville revue given under makeups of black and tan. Features of the act are a jazz band and a male impersonator of high brown females. Sidney Landfleld talks, sings, passes some candy to the audience and plays a piano. Some of his comedy is in bad taste. His best work is at the piano. Verdi and Glenn gather some laughs with their Italian comedy. The Three Madcaps are three girl dancers. The act is nicely mounted and costumed, but their act is too long and slow. The movie program includes Round Two of “Fighting Blood.” Schwab and company play the piano and banjo. At the Lyrio all week. (By Observer.) + -I- + “Whirl of Girls” on View at Capitol “The Whirl of Girls” which is playing at the Capitol theater this week, has several excellent entertainers and singers, but has the fault of doubling on sets and costumes. June Le Veay and George D. Weist met with well merited approval and stopped the show a couple of times. Some of their best numbers were “Beside a Babbling Brook” and “The Gumps.” They were called back again and again after their specialty act. Fred Binder and Vic S. Plant are the comedians, and they had some

clever and novel lines. One of their hits was the comedy action in the last scene. Flossie De Vere has several song and dance numbers. Madlyn Worth is another of the successful songsters on the bill. Willie Sinclair was in several of the scenes, and made a hit with Marie L’Ano in an Apache danc© in the second act. Ray Yearwood, Plant, Wiest, and Sinclair, in a quartet, pleased. There are some well written and well played comedy scenes, including a crook scene. This show has some clean people, well written lines, good songs and scenes, but needs a little more scenery and more costumes. At the Capital all week. (By Observer.) -1- -1- -I* Two Comedians Have Much To Do at the Broadway Two comedians are strong parts of the company now presenting stock burlasque at the Broadway, and they h,ave some good comedy lines this week. One of their best stunts in the current show has to do with hats, and is well received. In addition, they have some good song numbers in whiqh they are supported by a chorus of thirteen members, a number which seems to be lucky for them. There are five other principles on the bill who assist In the comedy lines as well as in song. At the Broadway all this week. (By Observer.) -I- -I- -I* The movies on view today Include: “Main Street” at the Apollo: “Bluebeard’s Eighth Wife” at the Circle: “Human Wreckage” at the Rialto: “Rupert of Hentzan” at the Ohio; “Second-Hand Love” at Mister Smith’s and “Blinky” at the Isis.
