ROUNDING AROUND THEATERS With Walter D. Hickman
A‘" LICE DELANE wins the title of “The Bravest Woman In Ini__! dlanapolls.” You will recall that Miss Delane was one of the most competent members of the Grand Players at English’s last summer. Indianapolis has applauded her many times for her splendid work, but for fifteen weeks she has not heard applause. For fifteen long weeks she has been In a room at St. Vincent's Hospital. At times, the doctors were not optimistic but they never gave up hope, although an operation was necessary. Many professional people as well as prominent local people have made the long journey to the hospital to see Miss Delane. The other night, I made the journey. Never in my life have I seen so brave a woman. With the aid of slendid doctors and hospital care of the finest nature, Alice Delane will be given back to the stage. , Through all of her trouble she has kept on smiling and praying and hoping that she again would see the footlights. She has many good offers on the stage which she can accept when the doctors release her from the little hospital room. Fifteen weeks on a bed in a hospital room seems like a lifetime to a performer, but Alice Delane is a great trooper. She has never complained. She is a brave fighter. , , . 'l* 'l' -I- ---| p I TT ART WALKER has had an I unsatisfactory week at the L ' Murat with the new comedy, ‘'Time/’ by Arthur Henry. That is from an attendance standpoint. When Walker presented “Time” at the Cox in Cincinnati, Ohio, it was his second biggest week from a box office standpoint. The comedy deserved much better treatment here than it received. I feel sure that those who did see this comedy are glad they went to the Murat this week. -I- -!- -IATMOND FAGAN will leave the local Keith house on Sunday —— I night with the great and glorfous feelin’ that his first visit to this city has been “some visit.” Here is an organization. I am told, which still has the job of bidding for favor in New York variety houses.Xl am not a wise old owl, never want to be, hut I have the hunch that Broadway is going to like this real bunch of he-men musicians who play because they want to make melody. Come back again, Raymond Fagan, and bring all the boys with you. Also Pam and Peggy Garvin, because these youngsters have a chance if they will work and study. - -I- -ICOMEDY material on the screen is difficult stuff to obtain. •——l There are a few, and a mighty few, men on the screen today who can create comedy situations. I am speaking of Harold Lloyd and Charlie Chaplin. Chaplin lately has been directing a film for one of his former comedy associates. Lloyd has kept on thinking up and creating new comedy situations. This is apparent in Lloyd’s latest, Worry?” Lloyd does not rely upon himself alone to make this one different but he spreads fame to a giant and to anew leading woman. Here are different faces and new personalties used in big comedy scenes with Uoyd. The result Is that Lloyd has given the screen a new type of entertainment —a romantic farce comedy. It is one of the "eal pictures of the year.

VLADIMIR DE PACHMANN
Who is Vladimir Pachmann? That he is a “divine interpreter” of the musical art is generally known, but his origin is less widely known. The huge posters announcing one of his concerts proclaim him a Russian, but without napiing the precise city of this vast empire, and naturally afford no insight into the mode and life and personal characterists of this genius, who has entranced the whole world with his masterful performance. It is twelve years since De Pachmann visited America, and he announces that the present tour will be his farewell. De Pachmann can be considered the dean of active pianists, having been on the concert stage for fifty-four years. He is twelve years older than Paderewski, fifteen years older than Alexander Silotl, while he was playing in public before Josef Hofmann and his contemporaries were born. De Pachmann will appear In recital at the Murat on Sunday afternoon, Dec. 9, under direction of Ona B. Talbot.

We told the board of safety over a month ago.” NEW AUTO_ SALESROOMS Studobaker Corporation Opens Two Sub-Branches.
