An all-comedy stage show on which are featured three distinct headliner acts of RKO vaudeville and the all-talking Fox Movietone picture, “Body and Soul,” with Charles Farrell and Eftissa Landi, is the program of entertainment which is on view at the Lyric for one week, starting today. Heralded as one of the most sensational discoveries in years, Elissa Landi makes her American film debut opposite Charles Farrell in the picture “Body and Soul.” Miss Landi was Europe’s most popular stage and screen star before coming to this country to play the lead in the Broadway stage production, “A Farewell to Arms.” Billy Purl and his show of wonders head the list of RKO vaudeville acts on the Lyric’s all-comedy stage show. Billy Purl is a rotund comedian who has had many years of experience on the stage. He has now assembled a company of some thirty people and is presenting a complete musical comedy revue with book and lyrics. He has in his revue six specialty acts, all of whom are recognized vaudeville artists. The company includes an all-girl band; Harvey, Stanley and Harvey, dancers; the Haxton Sisters, harmony girls; Marie Sweet, dance star; Ford and Van, two radio entertainers; Jules Jenkins, co-comic, and a chorus of ten dancing and singing girls. Elaborate scenic production also is carried. Jed Dooley, another headliner on this bill, comes from the famous stage family of Dooleys. He recently appeared in a series of tworeel comedies in Hollywood, and is now touring vaudeville with his partner. Miss Audrey Evans, also of the films Axel Christensen is classed as a character pianist. His has been a radio name for the last year or so and prior to that invented and founded the Christensen system of rag-jazz piano playing, which was taught from coast to coast. The Torgos. a troupe of sensationally daring European gymnasts, also are on the vaudeville portion of the show.

A Chinese Fete Will Be Given Devine Will Try Out New Dance Idea at the Indiana Roof. TOM DEVINE, manager of the Indiana roof ballroom, searches his bag of tricks and reveals a mythical trip to Chinaland as the ballroom’s feature for the coming week. The Spanish beauty of the ballroom is hidden beneath its newly acquired Mongolian decorations, which effectively produce the appearance of a Chinese garden fete. Most noticeable among the decorations are hundreds of twinkling lanterns string from the ballroom’s balconies to its ceiling, from which a huge lighted lantern is hung. Guests of the ballroom will be presented with Chinese good luck coins, the power of which will be put to a test when the ballroom management has its ‘Lucky Dance,” Saturday evening, Merch 7. The “Lucky Dance” is a stunt conceived by Devine, in which every patron of the ballroom may participate. Numbered circles will be drawn on the dance floor for this stunt. When the “Lucky Dance” is announced by the orchestra leader, the dancers will start to dance, as usual. At a given signal the music will stop, a wheel of fortune will be spun apd the * couple standing on the circle having the winning number will be presented with gifts.

Previews

“EAST LYNNE”—A Fox picture with Ann Harding, Conrad Nagel, Clive Brook. The story is a tear jerker and on this basis should cash in heavily at the box office. A picture the women will undoubtedly flock to see. “LADY FOR HIRE”—A Radio picture with Betty Compson, Gilbert Emery. Nothing pretentious, nothing sophisticated, nothing for the children. Heavily plotted drama that is fair enough entertainment. "PARLOR, BEDROOM AND BATH”—MGM picture with Buster Keaton, Reginald Denny. An hilarious farce comedy better known as a laugh riot. By far the best of the Keaton talkies. Heartily amusing without being vulgar. Box office from first to last laugh. “PRIVATE SECRETARY” A Radio picture with Mary Astor, Robert Ames. Well acted, well written, well directed comedydrama on a familiar theme that the ladies like. Saved from banality by breezy dialog and good direction. The production is above average. “HOT HEIRESS” First National picture with Ben Lyon, Ona Munson. Words and musit are O. K., but interrupted by long stretches of dialogic dullness written into a story that has been done many times mostly in the old days. There is a sprinkling of laughs, but not enough entertainment for a feature length picture.

Hit of the Week “Sweet Jennie Lee” has been chosen as the popular music "hit of the week,” The song was written by Walter Donaldson and is expected to rival the famous composer's “Blue Heaven,” the rage of several years ago, in popularity.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

ROUNDING ROUND THEATERS ™hYc a k l m t !S

REMEMBERED for two fine performances at English’s last season, Harald Kreutzberg and Yvonne Georgi, dancers, will return here Sunday afternoon, March 8. Mrs. Nancy Martens has the honor of presenting these two dancers this time. On their present tour, these dancers have been playing to capacity, often being forced to give additional performances.

Based on the short number of years he has been internationally famous, Kreutzberg’s career is yet in it’s infancy. But his is a powerful, expressionistic art developed through years of training and a deep love for the dance. However, it was not until Max Reinhardt brr -.ght Kreutzberg to this country ii. his production of “Midsummer Night’s Dream,” that the American critics and public became “Kreutzbergcoscious.” It was not in “Midsummer Night's Draeam,” that Kreutzberg first gained enthusiastic recognition, but in a matinee-recital wedged on between performances one Sunday afternoon. Appearing in this joint recital with Tilly Losch, Kreutzberg was immediately heralded as the greatest living exponent of the modern dance. Wherever Herald Kreutzberg and Yvonne Georgi have danced in America they have been asked if they are married. Usually the young German artists merely shake their heads in the negative and laugh. The question is asked by almost everyone who has seen them dance. It is probably the result of their evident harmony. For the satisfaction of their admirers, however, let It be known that they are unmarried. Neither of them is wed, to the other, nor to anyone else. At present they are, as the movie-actresses say, wedded to their art. They have been friends since early youth when they were pupils as the same dance school in Berlin. Even then they had begun to evolve dances which led to their present partnership culminating in their renown as the world's greatest dancers. #* • * The two-hour program to be presented Wednesday evening, by the Indiana university men singers and their director. Professor D. D. Nye, at Hollenbeck hall, Y. W. C. A., under the auspices of the Indiana Federation of Music Clubs, will include eleven numbers by the entire group of men singers, five piano selections by William Pelz of Evansville, a group of violin selections by Isidore Spaier of Bloomington, an accordion solo by Kenneth Jackson of Aurora, and two numbers by the Indiana university quartet, composed of Gerald Middleton, Greentown, first tenor;. Charles Schneider, Evansville, second tenor; Samuel Keller, Lafayette, first bass, and Pelz, second bass. The program will be divided into five parts. The first will consist of classical numbers by the entire club, followed by four piano selections by Pelz. The third part of the program will be devoted to four popular ballads by the entire group of singers—and the fourth part will he devided to violin numbers. The fifth and last part of the program will be given over to specialized American music, including four numbers by the entire group, one piano solo by Pelz, two numbers by the quartet, and one accordion solo. The classical numbers to be presented by the club are: ‘•Alleluia’' by O’Cocnor-Morris: 'The Asra.” by Rubinstein (arraneed by Prof. D. D. Nve. director of the L U. men singers. and ‘O Lovely Night” from the opera ”Les Contes d’Hoflman.” by Offenbach (arranged by Max Splcker.

The censor board of Riverside, Cal., sent a written request to the manager of the Fox Riverside theater, asking him to cancel the showing of Clara Bow’s latest film, “No Limit.” They gave as their reason that the star’s recent newspaper notoriety made her unfit to be seen by the local boys and girls. The request was refused and “No Limit” was screened as per schedule.

Jolly Club Dance Is Announced Erroll Mushrush Plans New Events at Ballroom. ANOTHER week of interring and entertaining events are announced for the Lyric ballroom beginning tonight, according to the statement given but by the manager Erroll Mushrush. One of the big events of the week is the “Jolly Club Dance” which Mushrush is planning for next Friday night. This party is open to every one but the Jolly Club members are to be treated to special features which they will invite every one in the ballroom to participate in. A "Welcome Night” has been scheduled for Monday evening with a series of unusual contests and valuable prizes. Tuesday night is “Party Night” when special attentions will be given groups attending in a body. A Treasure Hunt with expensive prizes hidden away in various parts of the ballrom will be the big event on Wednesday evening. Thursday night, Mushrush plans a “Perfume Dance.” During the evening all ladies will receive sample bottle of fragrant perfumes. Large sized bottles of perfume will be awarded winners of various contests on this night. Curtis Thompson and his ballroom dance band are still being featured in the band stand of the Lyric. Local singers from variolas clubs and from the Lyric stage entertain with the band.

It May Be All True The last Mayfair party in Hollywood brought forth two great terpsichorean artists whom it would be hard to beat. They are Sen or Berto Wheeler and La Belle Jobyna Howland, who modestly entered the dancing contest and after a series of spins, whirls, nip-ups and back flips, the judges ever on the alert for something new in “collegiate” dancing, awarded them the fleecelined cup. Star Changes Her Mind “Turned Loose in College,” which Radio Pictures announced as a starring vehicle for Dorothy Lee, has been called off for a time at the request of Dorothy herself. With infinitely more sense than is usually found in most actresses, she says that she needs more experience before she is starred. She is going into “Too Many Cooks” with Bert Wheeler, and “Room and Board” with Hugh Herbert and Edna Mae Oliver, and she believes that, with two more pictures behind her, she will have a better chance to succeed in a picture of her own. Arlen and Dresser Featured Richard Arlen and Louise Dresser will be co-featured in “Roped In” for Paramount, under the direction of Edward Soman.

Doug Fairbanks Has Modern Role In ‘Reaching for the Moon,’ Now at the Palace—lndiana Features Helen Twelvetress and James Hall. DOUGLAS FAIRBANKS has thrown aside armor, steed, sword and buckler for the first time in ten years and attired himself in a wellfitting business suit, and has exchanged battlements for a pent-house apartment topping a skyscraper. The picture is “Reaching for the Moon.” written and directed bv Edmund Goulding, whom they call the most versatile man in Hollywood, and it opens today at the Palace with Bebe Daniels as the object of Fairbanks' affections. They called it a “million dollar cast” when the filming was going on at United Artists, and a glance at the names seems to make the sum fall

short. For in addition to Fairbanks I and Daniels, there are Edward Everet Horton, sure-fire farceur; Jack Mulhall, a star in his own right; Claude Allister, the comic Britisher; June Mac Cloy, gorgeous to gaze upon; Luana Walters, anew beauty, and such veteran troupers as Emmett Corrigan, Walter Walker, Helen Jerome Eddy, Adrienne d'Ambricourt and Phil Tead. Fairbanks plays the role of a dynamic young stock broker, who is so busy playing the game of finance that he has somehow lost sight of love. That is, until Bebe Daniels, portraying a society aviatrix, comes along and makes him realize he has missed the most important thing in his life. Just about the time this weighty thought takes possession of him Bebe starts from Europe with a group of debs to take part in an air meet in England and Doug has to hustle to catch the boat. Even when he catches up with Bebe anew complication floors him in the discovery that she is engaged to marry. And, on top of this, his absence from the busy mart of stocks costs him his fortune. However, nothing can stop the hard-driving young American, and a solution is worked out before the ship docks at Southampton agreeable to every one and heavy with laughs r,nd thrills. Short films comprising vhe balance of the bill will include Hal Roach’s ‘Boy Friends’ in their newest all talking comedy entitled “Love Fever” and the latest world happenings pictured in the Hearst Metrotone News. “MILLIE” NOW * AT THE INDIANA “Millie,” an all-talking radio picture, adapted from the sensational novel of the same title which was written by Donald Henderson Clarke, opened a week’s engagement at the Indiana theater Friday. Helen Twelvetrees, star of “Her Man” and “The Cat Creeps,” has the chief feminine role in the film. James (Jimmie) Hall, hero of “Hell’s Angels,”’ besides continuing for a third week in person as master of ceremonies on the Indiana’s stage, is seen and heard on the talking screen in a featured role‘in “Millie.” The story concerns a young girl whose heart takes her from a village school room to be the wife of a philandering New Yorker. When her faith in men is rudely shaken by the infidelity of her husband, she sets out with bitterness in her heart to treat all men as she has been treated. Besides Hall and Miss Twelvetrees, the cast of players includes Lilyan Tashman, Robert Ames, Joan Blondell, John Halliday, Anita Louise, Charles Delaney and others. John Francis Dillon directed. On the Indiana’s stage, Jimmie Hall presents a Publix production entitled “Hollywood Revels.” Its performers include Fred Lightner and Rocella, comedians; Hector and his Pals, a canine specialty; Beehee and Rubyatte, acrobats; Lillian Dawson, singer, and the Merriel Abbott Dancers, a ballet. In addition to conducting a band on the stage, Hall sings anew number, jests a bit, and introduces the various acts. Incidentally, he also is present in the theater’s lobby daily between 2 and 3 p. m. and between 8 and 9 p. m. to meet patrons and autograph books, photographs, etc. Asa special feature of the supplementary program, the Indiana presents on its stage, Leonid Leonard!, concert pianist, as guest soloist with Ed Resener’s new augmented concert orchestra in a rendition of George Gershwin’s “Rhapsody in Blue.” Dessa Byrd is at the organ, and a Paramount sound news reel closes the bill. “MY PAST” OPENS * AT THE APOLLO Bebe Daniels comes to the Apollo today in “My Past,” Warner Brothers and Vitaphone production vfhich

.FEB.-28, 1931

was taken from the widely read novel, “Ex-Mistress.” The private lives of famous stars of the stage and screen are known only to a select few. The glamour of publicity hides the real persons. The aura of popularity throws a shining light around them. Gossip, which may or may not start innocently enough, is usually greatly distorted before it has been tossed to many mouths. All these facts contribute to keeping the actual personal lives of famous film and stage* stars away from the public in general. Miss Daniels enacts the role of Doree Macy, legitimate stage star in “My Past,” who is loved by two men, pals and business associates. Ben Lyon has the role of the young lover who is unhappily married to a wife that is dissatisfied with him quite as much as he with her. 4| Natalie Moorehead portrays the gallivanting wife.. Miss Daniels’ other suitor is characterized by Lewis Stone, whose love, being that of an older man, forces him to give her to his young friend. Many adverse circumstances come in their way before things aright themselves, however—and Albert Gran furnishes some delightful comedy along the way. Others in the cast are Joan Blondell, Virginia Sale and Daisy Belmore. Adaptation and dialog writing was performed by Charles Kenyon and Roy Del Ruth directed. Vitaphone Varieties. “The Naggers Go South,” and “Ain’t Nature Grand,” and Fox Movietone News round out the program. tt tt a THREE GOOD PLAYERS IN MOVIE Three popular Paramount players —George Bancroft, Kay Francis and Clive Brooks—are the principals in “Scandal Sheet,” the new alltalking picture which opened an engagement of one week at the Circle Friday. Bancroft impersonates a militant editor of a “yellow” journal, Kay Francis appears as his wife, and Clive Brook has the role of a prominent banker who is in love with the wife. As the unyielding editor of the tabloid newspaper, Bancroft follows rigorously the policy of printing all the news no matter how much it affects the persons involved He even disregards the request of .the paper’s owner who seeks to have him protect several friends who become innocently entangled in a sensational news story. The editor, however, upholds his creed firmly. Suddenly he is ensnared by his own methods when his wife and the banker become the victims of a front-Dage scandal. They had been photographed by one of Bancroft’s men as they stand side by side at the window of the banker’s apartment. Although staggered by his wife’s faithlessness, Bancroft mercilessly goes in search of the facts and writes them up in the paper. After this duty is performed, he sets out with murderous intentions, thus bringing about the film’s climax. “Scandal Sheet” was written by Vincent Lawrence and Max Marcin, veteran legitimate playwrights. Direction was by John Cromwell, maker of “Tom Sawyer,” “For the Defense,” “Street of Chance” and many other good talking pictures. The trio of principals in the cast, are supported by Gilbert Emery, Regis Toomey, Lucien Littlefield, Jackie Searl, Mary Foy, James Kelsey and Harry Beresford. a a a FIRST RUN MOVIE AT OHIO “Ex-Flame,” a modernized version of the world famous stage play and book, “East Lynne,” has iti first showing in Indianapolis at the Ohio theater for the week which starts Saturday. The picture retains the original plot- outline of Mrs. Wood's sixty-year-old “East Lyne,” but it has been equipped with modem settings, costumes and dialog.
