WAR OFFICE TO SEND CLOTHING TO CITYJEEDY Two Carloads Will Be Sent Here From Philadelphia for Distribution. Clothing from the surplus of the United States war department will be given out to the needy of Indianapolis and Marion county soon, aC- , cording to an announcement today by the Red Cross-American Legion and Auxiliary Emergency Relief station. The apparel is valued at $2,000. Frank H. Woerner, manager of the station, said he had received notification from Washington that two carloads of shoes, underwear, shirts, overcoats, and socks are due to arrive in Indianapolis from Philadelphia. , The clpthing will be used to augment that obtained from collections by police, firemen and other agencies. According to Woerner, the station was informed recently of the war department’s national plan to sell its surplus clothing to relief agencies at greatly reduced prices. “The committee in charge of the station promptly got in touch with Congressman Louis Ludlow, who helped us to get an early shipment of the clothes without going through a lot of red tape,” Woerner All Needy to Be Aided Members of the committee in charge of the station are Capl in Otto Ray, chairman; Dr. Frank E. Long, Gus Meyer, and William H. * Book, of the Chamber of Commerce. Although the war department is selling the clothing, and not giving it away, Woerner said the relief station will give out the new supply under the same conditions as it does all other clothing. “Every one who is in need may get clothing here,” he declared. “The benefits of this station are not? limited to World War veterans, as many seem to think. “The wearing apparel from the war department is welcome at this time, for we haye had a hard time . finding sufficient men's clothing all winter.” Thousands to be Clothed According to Patrick Hurley, secletary of the war department, ap-f-oximately $3,000,000 worth of clothing will be unloaded to relief agencies throughout the nation. He estimates 1,500,000 persons may be clothed by the new supply. In cities where relief is not so well organized as it is in Indianapolis, an individual will have to wait for some time in order to get finy clothes from the new supply, it was said. In these communities the reliefseeker will apply to a relief agency, where he will fill a requisition bank. The agency turns the blank over to the Governor, who sends it v to the commander of his army corps area. It then is sent to the war department, which turns it over to the nearest of its fifteen depots. The depot will send the clothing to the agency. Ruckclshaus Is Honored Approximately 450 persons attended a party given by members of the Columbia Club Thursday night in honor of John C. Ruckelshaus, president, and other new officers and directors of the club.

POWERFUL AND FINE PIANO HAS ITURBI In Presenting Spanish Pianist, Mrs. Nancy Martens Gives Greatest Evening of Music of Her Career. BY WALTER D. HICKMAN NOT forgetting the many great artists that Mrs. Nancy Martens has brought to Indianapolis since she has been in business for herself, I will tell you that in presenting Jose Iturbi, Spanish pianist in recital at English's last night, she sponsored the greatest evening of music in her career. He played one of the purest pianos I have ever heard in my life, regardless of whether it is Mozart, Chopin, Brahms, Ravel, Liszt or such a modern thing as a “Spiritual In Blue,” which was given as one of his njany encores, f

It is seilom that an artist has ever t 'ated an audience better than iturbi on his first visit to this city. After the Mozart sonata, after the Chopin sonata, then variations of Theme Paganini, and still after Debussy, Ravel, Albeniz and Liszt, he came back with four encores which included some wonderful moments. It was most interesting to hear him explain the “Spiritual in Blue,” a sort of an African cariation of a spiritual. I’ was still more interesting for him to play with the same masterfu. fingers which has given us perfect Mozart and Chopin such modern blues as his "Spiritual in Blue.” Here was a haunting modern thing which not only struck the fancy of the large audience but did not ruin the spell of his Mozart or his Chopin. Then also for an encore, he played two waltzes by Chopin and Brahms. Here was a charm that I have seldom experienced at a concert. It was evident tha Iturbi was enjoying his concert here as he often

smiled. There is very little fireworks to the method of this man. He is entirely sure of his technique. That produces masterful playing. I have heard the greatest of them play in my work on The Indianapolis Times, but never in my life has a pianist held his audience so spellbound as Iturbi did last nigjit. This was a marvelous compliment to Iturbi. Was extremely interested in watching his hands silently play over the keys before he began a number. Here is a concert, Mrs. Martens, that we are going to talk about for months. And as far as I am concerned, I will never forgat it, as I place this concert among the five great ones I have heard in my life time. n u Indianapolis theaters today offer: George Arliss in “The Man Who Played God,” at the Apollo; Marion Davies and Clark Gable in “Polly of the Circus,” at the Palace; “Safe

bled on to a valise containing jewers valued at $25,000. He was broke. So he “flagged” down motorists with his thumb, begged nickels until he had 15 cents, and called a phone number he found in the valise. The valise belonged to Mrs. Robert T. Stone, New York and Greenwich, Conn. It had bounced out of a car driver by her sister, Miss Edyth McCoon, Feb. 17. Mrs. Stone met Kane at a gas station. The farm hand who had lost his job in Poughkeepsie ten weeks ago, and had been tramping Westchester county for work, was given a “lift” to New York’s financial district. Insurance agents for Mrs. Stone there paid him SI,OOO in crisp new bills, and Charles Kane, jobless, but not penniless, disappeared among the thousands shoving their way toward subway entrances.
