For Democrats
Both the New York Palace and Hippodrome, are making unusual preparations to entertain the delegates to the Democratic national convention, to assemble soon in historic Madison Square Garden in New York City. The Hippodrome is staging an elaborate novelty act, “See America,’’ an augmented version of Lee Donnelly's piece. “See America First,” with episodes glorifying every quarter and section of the Union in spectacular fashion. Vincent Lopez and his orchestra are playing no favorites, as they are among the chief entertainers in Cleveland, and during the Democratic assemblage in Manhattan they will be either at the Palace or Hippodrome making the delegates happy with Lopez’ version of “Tammany,” which has been chosen as the chief convention

Rounding Round Theaters ■ with WALTER D. HICKMAN I - 1 —-I T is best pot to ha\e too many j irons in the fire, because the * fire may give out and the irons become cold. Am speaking of the Little Theater movement in this city and the proposed Theater Guild and* Children's Theater. The guild and the children's theater are only (loams as yet, hut several people have serious intentions along this line. A guild and a children's playhouse wnu,ld be a “nice'' thing for the city, btit I for one am of the opinion that Indianapolis cannot support such institutions at this time. The Little Theater -has an opportunity to do worth-while things, although the past season has not been so very constructive. And yet the Little Theatre should have its own home and its present campaign to get one should be supported to the point that it is realized. I have the following statement from one of the directors of the Little Theatre: “The chain plan for raising funds for the Little Theatre house has progressed so swiftly and surely that already • several progressions are quite complete. Competition and rivalry are keen, so that this impetus makes enthusiastic workers strive harder for subscriptions. Get into the progression and be able to say you gave your ‘bit,’ willingly. This Is a civic enterprise fostered by people vitally interested in what the Little Thotre means in a community

The story of “The Galloping Fish” concerns a young bridegroom who is having his first quarrel with the light of his life. He quite unwittingly and unwillingly becomes the guardian of Freddie, the seal, who assists Undine, a vaudeville actress, in her act. Undine, in trying to evade the sheriffs who are attempting to attach Freddie for some unpaid bills, and in order to keep Freddie out of the clutches of the law, she deposits him on Freddy Wetherill before he has an opportunity to find out what it is all about. He is cajled to the home of his wealthy uncle, who is anxious to meet the young bride, and Freddy, desperate, takes Undine with him and introduces her as Mrs. Freddy

Wetherill. Complications ensue rapidly when the bride decides to join her husband at the uncle’s home. A flood which looses a whole menagerie of animals from a circus and deposits them in the midst of the household further complicates things, but Freddie untangles everything, is reconciled with his bride, makes his peace with his uncle and Undine and her fiance, along with Freddy, take their leave. Louise Fazenda appears as Un-| dine. Lucille Ricken is the jealous bride, and Ford Sterling is Undine’s fiance, also jealous. Asa special attraction next week the Circle is presenting Tom Brown and the Original Six Brown Brothers, with their Saxophone Band of thirty pieces. This organization, which is not to be confused with any other band of the same name, was with Fred Stone for several seasons, and is coming here direct from the Balaban and Katz Theaters in Chicago. From Indianapolis they will go direct to the Mark Strand Theater, where they will remain for an indefinite stay. The program will also include the Circlette of News, a one reel comedy, “Family Fits,” a Robert Bruce Wilderness Tale, Flowers of Hate,” and a Hodge Podge cartoon. MELODRAMATIC THRILLS PROMISED AT APOLLO In “Arizona Express,” coming to Ihe Apollo next week the talent of Lincoln J. Carter, past master of the art of concocting melodramatic thrills makes itself manifest. A big stage success a few years back, it has been brought to the screen produced on a lavish scale. Among the spectacular scenes la a cloudburst and flood in the mountains, the wreck of a train, which plunges from a bridge spanning aj stream into the raging torrents be-j low and the battle with and captui 3* of a desperate band of crooks after they had commandeered a railroad engine. The story embraces the romance! of Steve Butler, a railway mail clerk, and Katherine Keith, an orphaned heiress who, with her brother David, is the ward of Henry MacFarlane, a banker in a suburban place near Los Angeles. Young David becomes infatuated with Lola Nichols, an adventuress who, with her lover, Victor Johnson, plans to burglarize th MacFarlane bank.
