MINEVITCH WILL BE HOST MONDAY Harmonica Artist Will Entertain All Indianapolis Times Carriers at The Indiana Theater. BORRAH MINEVITCH, harmonica artist who Is appearing in person at the Indiana theater, starting today, in the stage presentation, "Smart Smarties,” will te host to 1,000 Times carriers Monday morning at 8:30. Minevitch himself is a former Boston newsboy, and he will lead The Indianapolis Times carriers in a parade through the downtown streets before they go to the Indiana theater, where they will be entertained by Minevitch and his harmonica rascals, who are appearing with him in

the stage show. After being entertained by this carriers will be invited to remain and see the showing of William Powell in "Shadow of the Law,” the feature screen attraction for the Indiana next week. a m NEW BILL DUE SATURDAY AT LYRIC Have you ever known one of those blue-nosed and generally obnoxious persons who go about butting into other people’s affairs—one that you'd like to get by the throat and slowly, just for the pleasure of it, throttle? There is just such a person in Warner Brothers’ new Vitaphone comedy drama, “Dumb-bells in Ermine,” which begins a week’s stay at ihe Lyric, Saturday. Robert Armstrong and Barbara Kent are f .tured in an all-star cast. Arthur Hoyt plays the reformer role and goes too far, however, and gets a large dose of his own medicine— through the socalled dumb-bells he has had arrested after a speakeasy raid of his making. It is said to be one of the many high spots of comedy in the feature picture, "Dumb-bells in Ermine,” which was directed by John Adolphi and adapted to the screen by Harvey Thew from the Lynn Starling stage success, “Weak Sisters.” James Gleason, who also has a prominent part in the picture, wrote ail the dialogue. Beryl Mercer, who will be remembered by local theater-goers for her marvelous work in “Seven Days Leave” and also on the stage here with the Stuart Walker stock company, plays the part of an extremely foxy grandma, and Claude Gillingwater is her rheumatic suitor, and uncle to the pretty girl about whom the story revolves. Julia Swayne Gordon is the stern mamma and Charlotte Merriam and Mary Foy are the “dumb-bells” rampant. Os course, the lovers as you have already guesses, are Robert Armstrong and Barbara Kent. A four-act bill of RKO vaudeville accompanies the feature picture. “The Fakir,” a five-scene comedy satire written by Edwin Burke, is the star act. It is to be presented by Howard Smith and Mildred Barker, two well-known variety entertainers. With his guitar and banjo Don Galvan, “The Spanish Banjo Boy,” offers music, song and fun for the next specialty. Bud and Eleanor Coll, style their presentation of song, dance and mirth, “Youth and Talent.” Comedy tumbling and skilled acrobatics is the forte of Beehee

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

SEEK TO UNITE OPPOSITION TO HOQVERREGIME Democrats, Progressives May Join Forces in Minnesota. Bv Bcripps-Howard Newspaper Alliance WASHINGTON, June 20.—The first experiment in a tentative movement to amalgamate Democratic and progressive forces in several western states may be tried in Minnesota, it was learned today, with prominent members of both groups in favor of the attempt to unite elements opposed to the Hoover administration. It is known that influential Democrats, progressive Republicans and farmer laborites have discussed the question here, and believe it should be tried wherever local conditions make it practicable. While there may be no amalgamation in time to effect the 1932 presidential election, it is thought that a gradual breaking down of party lines would have a deep effect on next fall’s congressional

contests, and eventually on national struggles. It also is pointed out that the eleven progressive senators have voted almost invariably with the Democrats on all important issues, and the chief difference is the political label they wear. Conferences for a merger in Minnesota already have been held by representatives of the farmer labor and Democratic parties. With Senator Schall victor in the G. O. P. senatorial primary over Governor Theodore Christiansen, the deal would make him the combined target of the other two groups. It has been proposed that the Democrats support Floyd Olson, the fanner labor candidate for Governor, while the farmer labor nominee for the senate ex-Rep-resentative Knud Wefald, would withdraw in favor of Oeiner Hoidale, the Democrats’ choice. Minnesota apparently has been selected for the first trial because of the flexibility of party lines since the farmer labor party became a dominant pow'er, and because of the feuds between regular Republicans represented by Christiansen and the irregular groups with whom Schall has been aligned at times. The Democrats almost are neg-

ligible as a political entity, but their support may be needed if the Farm-er-Labor nominee for Governor is to consolidate the control by deeating the G. O. P. candidate. How far such a combination can be carried in other states still is problematical, but next fall will present a fine opportunity for the attempt. Such progressives as Norris of Nebraska. McMaster of South Dakota, Borah of Idaho and Walsh of Montana are up for re-election. Norris, for instance, may command Democratic support because he worked for the election of A1 Smith in 1928, although there are reports the drys will put up a Democratic candidate in an effort to rob the senator of opposition votes. In some of the states, the Democrats would be urged to support progressives like Norris and Borah, according to the preliminary program, while in others the logical step would be for Republi :ans to line up behind a Democrat like Walsh.
