VIOLIN AND CELLO GO ON BIG WILD JAG Coscia and Verdi Tantalize Musical Instruments Into Delightful Frenzy as Well as Beauty. BY WALTER D. HICKMAN Ci AN you imagine a violin and the stately cello going on a wild comedy i jazz jag. Well, any way, that is what happens when Coscia and Verdi get busy with the two noble instruments. And when the souls of these two instruments are making you howl with laughter the two players become serious and the instruments become stately, sincerely melodious. Very nearly classical. These two men without their sense of showmanship and comedy would be just two more musicians trying to make a living by playing two great instruments. They jazz up the classics for laughs and when they tickle the strings for

111 VJ J UUU Vv —D jazz groans, well it is nobody's business. Verdi with the cello partly enclosed in an ordinary violin case comes on the stage looking like a tramp edition of a great master.

He even wears yellow shoes and rubbers with his ill-fit-ting formal clothes. His hair looks like a bird nest. Then the fun starts. Coscia is the cause of the merry moments which excites Verdi to his fullest extent. Here is a great comedy musical act. It is different and the comedy is as clean as a hound’s tooth. See this one and howl.

Frank Albertson

Billy Maine is a comedian with vears of stock training in musical plays as well as vaudeville. He has a good comedy way with him. He pleases easily with clean material as he impersonates a nobleman. Support is pleasant. Dale and Meyers are billed to appear in “A Treat in Athletics.” And that billing is correct every second. Perry Twins and Eslyn Taris make a good dancing trio. The duo work of the boys is splendid. Frank Albertson probably will turn out to be one of those juvenile male cuties along with Buddy Rogers and Jack Oakie. Frank can become dramatic and sincere when necessary or he can turn out to be a mischevious cutup making w-hoo-pee and getting himself in a mess of trouble. Am speaking of his work as the male terrible in "Wild Company." "Wild Company” has the polished services of H. B. Warner as the father of Albertson. Warner fails to make his son behave and when his son is accused of manslaughter, the court finds the boy guilty as well as the father on moral grounds. Tnis story is like a sermon but one of those rather pleasant domestic ones that we like to hear now and then because we know that it is true. This picture gives one a comfortable feeling of feeling juct a little guilty in our treatment of modern youth. Now at the Lyric. a a a Other theaters today offer: "Dancing Sweeties” at the Apollo, Horace Heidt and his band at the Indiana. "Numbered Men” at the Circle. "Raffles” at the Palace, “The Social Lion” at the Ohio, and musical revue at the Colonial NO COUNTY AID FOR POLICE RADIO PLANT Meeting Will Be Held Friday to Determine Station's Future.

CHARGE JORDAN WITHJSSAHLT Bootlegger Shoots Sheriff and Father-in-Law. Bu United Prees NOBLESVILLE, Ind., Aug. 5. Charges of assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill were expected to be filed against Floyd Jordan, 31, paroled liquor law violator, as a result of two shots he fired last night at his father-in-law, Joseph Kemp, and Sheriff T. E. Ramsey. Kemp had threatened to call the sheriff when Jordan became abusive to his family, whereupon Jordan remarked that he would never be taken alive, according to Kemp’s story. The sheriff was called, nevertheless, and Jordan leaped upon him. Jordan fired two shots from the floor after the she.Ui had knocked him down with a mace. Each inflicted a slight flesh wound, one upon Ramsey and the other upon Kemp. The suspension of sentence on the liquor charge was expected to be immediately revoked, placing Jordan in prison pending determination of further action against, him.

BANS GANGLAND FUNERAL FOR SLAIN LEADER Zuta’s Body Is Claimed by Kentucky Relative Who Bars Hoodlums. By United Press CHICAGO, Aug. s.—Underworld associates of Jake Zuta, north side gang leader, were nonplussed today to learn that he will be buried in a S4O casket, without benefit of political or official attendance, in a Kentucky village cemetery. Zuta, believed by officials to have been the “master mind” in the murder of Alfred J. Lingle, Chicago Tribune reporter, who met his death before a crackle of machine gun fire in a dance hall near Delafield, Wis. Zuta had reaped a fortune of $500,000, it was said, but none of the money will be used for a pretentious funeral such as other leaders of Chicago’s gangdom have received. “I’m his cousin and sole heir,” Old Ike Kinsborg of Middleboro, Ky., told authorities and ganster friends of Zuta in Waukesha, Wis., where the body was taken. The offcials told him he ccold take charge of the body. “Just a quiet funeral,” Ginsborg said after buying the S4O casket. “No flowers or crowds. An orthodox service and burial in my private lot at Middleboro.” “You can tell those Chicago hoodlums and the politicians and city officials, too, that they won’t be wanted.” •CAVE MAN’ IS TAMED Mrs. Stokes Wins Divorce on “Inferiority Complex’ Charge at Reno.
