RAE SAMUELS WILL TOP BILL AT LYRIC The Blue Streak of Vaudeville Will Open Week’s Engagement Here Saturday With New Program of Songs. MISS RAE SAMUELS, “the blue streak of vaudeville.” comes to the Lyric for one week’s engagement, starting Saturday. The inimitable Rae and her cycle of all new songs and fun heads the six-act bill of RKO vaudeville which augments the feature picture, “East Is West,” starring Lewis Ayres with Lupe Velez. The secret of Miss Samuels’ success of vaudeville and musical comedy is the fact that she seemingly and willing put her entire self into every little thing she does. Whether it is singing a song, telling a story and even when she smiles she shows that she really likes to smile and make her audiences happy.

In her new act, which she will present here next week, Rae promises a host of unusual songs. “East Is West,” the feature picture, is an adaptation of Fdy Bainter's well-known stage success, which tells a romantic and intriguing story of the love ' affairs of Ming Toy, a beauitful little Chinese girl who falls in love with a wealthy American youth, who rescues her from the Chinese “love boat.” Lewis AyreS. whose rapid rise to stardom on the talking screen has been the talk of the motion picture industry, portrays Billy Benson, young American, his first romantic role. Lupe Velez is said to make an ideal Ming Toy, while Edward G. Robinson, a stage actor, plays Charlie Yong, vicious king of San Francisco's Chinatown. Five other RKO vaudeville acts are featured on the stage. Harry Cardiff and Mary Wales offer a coifiedy specialty called “Divorce”; “Dance Aristocrats” is the title of a lavishly staged dance revue; Harriet Nawrot and Boys do stunts on roller skates; Ned Haverly, blackface comedian, sings, talks and offers a novel “sand dance.” The Deviners present a classical revue with the assistance of Esther Deeter. Indianapolis theaters today offer: Aunt Jemima at the Lyric, “The Santa Fe Trail” at the Ohio, “Laughter” at the Circle, “Half Shot at Sunrise” at the Indiana, “Old English” at the Apollo, “Min and Bill” at the Palace, movies at the

Colonial, and burlesque at the Mutual.

Amos, Is in the state prison for his | part in the crime. During Amos’ trial it was revealed j on the witness stand that Armfield. I in on the plot, had given informa- j tion to police enabling them to trap i the bandits. The two slain were Carl Kittrell, 28, and Otto Price, 40. Amos has sworn revenge when he is freed from prison, but other gangsters and Kittrell’s wife may save him the trouble by obtaining ; it in the near future, Armfield told ; police. Armfield said he long has known he was marked down for gang j vengeance, but that it was only.! Monday night that his former pals really “tinned on the heat.” Then, he declared, a maroon sedan in which Mrs. Kittrell, one of the Prices and another man were riding, passed his rooming house several times, and once a man in it leveled a sawed-off shotgun at him. During the night there were knocks on his door, and a man tried to peer beneath his window curtains, he said. Tuesday a woman upbraided Mrs. Laura Renfrew, his landlady, for letting him live there, Armfield told police. Three police squads were detailed to watch Armfield Tuesday night.
