JOE AND PETE KNOW LOTS ABOUT COMEDY
Jean Harlow’s ‘Red-Headed Woman’ Is Cheap Burlesque; ‘Killing to Live’ Deserves Large Audiences. BY WALTER D. HICKMAN JOE and Pete Michon have that rare combination of great personality and comedy ability which only a very few acrobats possess. After seeing Joe and Pete in Mystic Magic Revue,” I am willing to say that they are my favorite acrobatic comedians. Although there are several high spots in this stage revue, it is the Michon brothers you are going to talk about this week after visiting the Indiana. Both possess great physical energy, sparkling personalities as well as real comedy and acrobatic talent. When I was present I know that these two brothers got more attention and applause, as well as laughs, than I have ever heard accorded an acrobatic comedy team at this theater. And that record deserves recording.
I do not know which one is Joe or which one is Pete. But the little fellow is the rapid guy. The way he plays, falls and slides over an acrobatic horse is one of the high lights of the act. Both are experts
in getting laughs. Their b u rlesque jn Duval, the silk magician, is clever and holds up the idea of the stage revue. If I am not all wrong, Joe and Pete are going to be the sensation of the week. The Indiana has a master of ceremonies this week. Guess who it is? James (Jimmie) Hall, movie actor, who cere-
Duval
monied for many weeks at this theater months ago. Jimmie has grown in ease and ability, although his vocabulary still is very Hollywood. He uses more aften the words “gorgeous” and “beautiful” than any man on the stage today. But Hall does have that human contact with the audience. His stuff seems spontaneous, and he always gives me the good feeling that he is just building the show. He has a good time with Ed Resener and the boys in the orchestra pit. And the audience likes him. So do I. Duval is a master when it comes to palming and he uses silk, yards and yards of it. He is one of the high spots of the show. I forget the name of the prima donna, but sue has a pleasing voice and personality. The chorus dances fairly and acts as a background for Duval. The finale is a pretty novelty on Duval’s part as well as the chorus. The movie feature is Constance Bennett in “What Price Hollywood.” Send me your review of this movie and the one I publish, will receive a gift from me that will be a fine and an enjoyable surprise. So do write me a short review. Now*at the Indiana.
CONCERNING HARLOW AND ‘RED-HEADED WOMAN’ In putting sex on the talking screen, Jean Harlow, the rest of the cast, Anita Loos, who adapted the movie version and the director, have gone further in “The Red-Headed Woman” than any movie I have ever seen. \ To me, “The Red-Headed Woman” is cheap sex burlesque (supposed to be farce) and at times I had the
feeling of wanting to spank Jean Harlow as the redheaded stenographer who was out to get her man or men by the cheap sex method instead of brains and real love. I nearly disgraced myself by starting to applaud when Chester Morris socks Lil Andrews, the character played by Miss Harlow,
£
Jean Harlow
right on the jaw and elsewhere after she had wrecked his home. And the director has carefully evaded any moral because Lil at the very end of the picture has a white-whiskered old daddy in Paris along with her all-the-time sweetie, French chauffeur, in the front seat of a nifty auto. And Lil is not even brought to trial for having emptied a revolver at the person of Bill Legendre (Morris) and his wife Irene, played by Leila Hyams. The thing that I am thankful about is that Bill didn'tiiave to live the rest of his weak life with Lil. Miss Harlow has never impressed me as a fair actress and she doesn’t this time although she plays this role wuthout any moral breaks during the entire picture. I feel sorry for the cast, especially Lewis Stone, Leila Hyams, Una Merkel and May Robson for appearing in such a cheap burlesqiie of a sex play. To me, it just is not good theater. Here is one picture I hope I do not remember for one second. But, please be your own judge. If you want to rave over “The RedHeaded Woman” and call me names that is your right. Now at the Palace. a a a PRAISING A FINE MOVIE OF NATURE
To me the most interesting thing on the current Circle bill is “Killing to Live.” I was interested in this movie the second it Was announced because I am living in high hopes of seeing very soon what is regarded as the finest animal picture ever filmed, “Bring ’Em Back Alive.” Living to Kill” proves the theory that nature is constantly warring
ffiaf nnu w A
and that it Is a fight to death among birds, the fish, even the larger animals and even in plant life for sunshine. One of the most remarkable shots of this movie is when the lecturer (the voice part of the movie) discauses the action of animals in a forest fire. Even the lamb and a lion may become harmless friends
when under the dreaded fear of fire. I will never forget those great scenes of animal fear and will always marvel how they were able to photograph the great flight of all animals in the path of death.

Equally fine are the scenes showing the reaction of animals to floods and excessive rain. These two scenes should be shown to school children in nature study classes at least once a year all over the country. And that is the highest compliment I can pay “Killing to Live.’ Be sure that your entire family sees this one. The main feature is “The Man From Yesterday” with Claudette Colbert and Clive Brook. It concerns a woman, who thinking that her husband was killed in the World war, marries another man. Hubby No. I comes back to life. When the three meet, the movie theme takes on the idea that a dead man should stay dead. And I agree. I think that both Miss Colbert and Brook fail to give their best to the characters. I blame the slow movement of the story for that. Be your own judge, but don't miss “Living to Kill.” nun ALL IS SWEET AND PURE AT THE APOLLO When you see “Rebecca of Sunnvbrook Farm” with Marian Nixon, Ralph Bellamy, Mae Marsh and Louise Closser Hale, yo\* can bet your last cent that everything is sweet and pure at the Apollo this week. Because we all know the story of Rebecca who went to live with her
Aunt Jane (Miss Marsh) and the haughty Aunt Miranda (Louise Closser Hale) in the big house in a small town, it is not necessary to tell it again. What you want to know is whether there is too much sugar in it and how the cast acts. I can tell you that as far as I am concerned everything is as it
should be. Miss Nixon makes a sweet human girl of Rebecca who was always getting in Dutch with her aunts. But to me the crowning work is contributed by Louise Closser Hale of this city and Mae Marsh as the two aunts. I will never forget the sight of these two elderly characters trying to cure their colds by bathing their feet in hot water. Homely fun, but mighty healthy. And Ralph Bellamy is ail right as the doctor. Rest of the cast is all right. Here is nice, sweet theater and I hope that we do not get too old to enjoy such theater. Now at the Apollo. tt n n Other theaters today offer: Frank De Voe on the stage and Tom Mix in “The Rider of Death Valley” on the screen at the Lyric. Both Riverside and Broad Ripple are offering attractive Fourth of July bills today.
ASSAILS 2 PARTIES Thomas Says Fascism Is Only Foe of Socialism. By United Press UTICA, N. Y., July 4.—The Republican and Democratic platforms were discounted by Norman Thomas, Socialist presidential candidate, Sunday night when he described Fascism as the only foe vs Socialism. “Our foe,” Thomas told his party’s state convention, “is neither major party, but Fascism, which is the last stand of capitalism.' Politicians can handle prohibition, 'but they can not handle poverty. Thomas said the Republican platform was composed of “wordy nothings,” while the Democratic platform was “amazingly conservative.” The Socialists nominated Louis Waldman of New York City as their candidate for Governor next November, on a ticket with Frank Crosswath, New York Negro, as Lieutenant - Governor.
HUTTON MUST ‘EXPLAIN’ AFTER QUIET HOLIDAY Trial of Corpulent Choir Master to Be Resumed Tuesday. Bn United Press LOS ANGELES, July 4.—Awaiting what is expected to be a severe cross-examination in the $200,000 breach of promise suit brought against him by Myrtle Hazel St. Pierre, David J. Hutton spent a quiet Fourth of July today with his wife, Aimee Semple McPherson Hutton, the evangelist. The corpulent choirmaster will be questioned by Attorney Lorren Andrewo for Miss St. Pierre when trial of the case is resumed after the holiday. Among the things the Angelus Temple baritone will be called upon to explain will be the possession of his picture by Miss St. Pierre, Andrews said. Hutton testified under direct examination that “thousands of my friends ask for my picture, just as friends of any other good artist ask for such photographs.”

END SESSIDN THIS WEEK, IS CONGRESS AIM Party Leaders Concentrate on Preventing Bingham Beer ‘Rider’ Vote. By United Press WASHINGTON, July 4.—Congressional leaders prepared today to stampede for early adjournment this week. Only pasasge of the departmental | appropriations bills and agreement on the $2,100,000,000 unemployment relief measure stood in the way of the end of the efforts of the tired legislators. Party leaders, casting hopeful glances toward home, expressed willingness to sidetrack the home loan discount bank bill this seSfcion. They concentrated on preventing a record vote on the proposal of Senator Hiram Bingham (Rep., Conn.) to attach a “rider” to the discount measure, providing for the legalization of 3 per cent beer for revenue purposes.
Beer Vote Is Fought Senate Republican Floor Leader James E. Watson and Democratic Leader Joseph T. Robinson indicated they would make efforts to prevent another record vote on beer. Bingham’s proposal received the support Sunday of a western Democratic senator who had voted dry throughout this session of 'congress. He indicated, however, that he desired a test vote and would shift to the wet column. If present plans of party leaders materialize, a vote on the beer question may not be reached. Under present rules, the unemployment relief bill will be the first order of business Tuesday. Leaders expect spirited debate on the measure, but they are confident senate and house will approve it, and President Hoover will add his signature to make it law. Snag on Army Bill The other major task before congress will be settlement of the disputes that have tied up the war department and agriculture department supply bills in conference. All other departmentaal bills have been enacted. The snag in the $388,000,000 war department bill is the question, of the dimissal of 2,000 army offifeers as an economy measure. ' , The house voted to reduce the personnel, but the senate refused to accept the cut.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
CHOCK-FULL of dramatic moments as was the Democratic national convention, there are some scenes that always will remain impinged upon the mind. Four of these will remain in memory for years, not because of their political importance, but because of their drama. Can any one present ever forget the greatest piece of oratory of the convention, the speech of Governor Joe Ely of Massachusetts when he placed Alfred E. Smith in nomination. The address of John Mack offering Roosevelt was dull and drab. His voice was monotonous and the galleries and balconies remained unstirred. But when Ely’s voice, vibrant with feeling, broke through the din, the immense stadium, with approximately 30,000 crowded against walls and standing in the aisles, became so quiet that the drop of a pin could be heard. When Ely came to the end the press galleries, for the first time in history, rose as one man to cheer. Telegraph operators forgot their work and correspondents stilled their typewriters. All were on their benches and chairs, shouting and howling. It was a spontaneous tribute to, the great Democrat, Smith, whose cause all knew to be lost; and to the oratory of Ely. Even those most bitterly opposed to the “Happy Warrior” cheered. That moment never will be forgotten. a n a Another was when Frank McHale of Logansport, chairman of the Hoosier delegation, announced the Indiana vote. All had expected the Hoosiers to give at least twenty votes to Roosevelt. Indiana was counted in the bag, because its past history has been one of political rapacity and job hunger. . But under the new leadership, the Hoosier Democrats cast their votes for idealism and friendship. Can one ever forget the eight votes for Newton D. Baker, the dark horse threat of the convention. The only man the Roosevelt forces feared. Those eight votes were a tribute Indiana paid to a reputation untarnished, to a war secretary upon whose escutcheon more than fifty Republican mud-slinging committees could place not even the smallest speck. There was something idealistic and fine about that voluntary tribute from a state where political corruption and selfishness is sup- ! posed to dominate. The new leadership of McNutt,;

Van Nuys, Taggart and McHale showed itself to be worthy of the position occupied. a a Then, of course, there was that moment at 5 o’clock of a blearyeyed, shabby morning when a voice from the floor called: “Mr. Chairman.” And that beetle-browed, stonyeyed political progressive, Tom Walsh, bent over the microphone, and in his unyielding voice demanded “who it was that addresses the chair?” A moment’s silence, then: “The mayor of New York.” “What is it the mayor of New York desires?” came the question, in the granite voice. Jimmy Walker, his face flushed from running to the convention stadium, when he learned that the individual members of the New York delegation were being polled, explained he had been absent and that his alternate had voted in his stead.
“If the chairman will permit me, I would like to cast my own vote,” Walker asked. “The delegate from New York may do so,” ruled Walsh. “What is the vote?” And there was a dead, long silence, all eyes riveted on the man whose political fate is in the hands of Roosevelt. What would be his choice? was the question in every mind. “I desire to cast my vote for Alfred E. Smith,” he said in a clear, ringing voice. Another moment of silence. Walker had flung his difiance at Roosevelt and voted for a bitter political enemy. And as this dawned on the 7,030 remaining, the cheers struck the vaulted ceiling and rebounded in an unearthly din as if 100,000 had lifted their voices. Always with a flair for the dramatic, Walker had lived up to his reputation as the most colorful figure in American public life. a a a The fourth incident, you ask? The boos and hoots of derision that greeted William Gibbs McAdoo, who had promised to remain true to the stop-Roosevelt movement, when he took the platform to announce that the Garner-pledged votes from California would be cast for Roosevelt. Every one booed him, even the delegates foresworn to the New York Governor. The fight was over and it was realized that McAdoo and Garner had sold out to the opposition for

second place on the ticket. From then on, whenever, the one-time secretary of treasury and son-in-law of Woodrow Wilson rose to speak, the galleries booed. He may have obtained his revenge, but it tasted like gall when the people who will vote in November express their disgust, and it was necessary for Mayor Tony Cermak to plead for order. It was a great show—the Democrats always give one.

LINDY HOAXER TO CARRY CASE TO HIGHCOURTS Jury Recommends Mercy; Maximum Penalty Is 3 Years in Prison. By United Prct FLEMINGTON, N. J., July 4 Counsel for John Hughes Curtis, convicted of obstructing justice in the Lindbergh kidnaping case, planned to go before the supreme court Tuesday to ask that the virdict be set aside. The fight to free the Norfolk shipbuilder and social leader will not end even should the supreme court act adversely, Captain Ryman Herr, one of Curtis’ attorneys said. The next move will be to carry the case to the court of errors and appeals, counsel indicated. It is understood Curtis’ counsel will contend that under the charge of trial Judge Adam O. Robbins to the jury the verdict should be set aside. The court charged the Jury to acquit Curtis if they believed he never was in contact with the real kidnapers of Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh’s son. Two of the state’s most important witnesses, Colonel Lindbergh and* Police Captain J. J. Lamb, testified they were convinced Curtis never had been in touch with the real kidnapers. The jury of five women and seven men, which found Curtis guilty Saturday, recommended mercy. The maximum penalty for a high misdemeanor under New Jersey law \ is three years at hard labor and a fine of SI,OOO. Tentative date for sentencing Curtis was set for July 11, but final decision on that day will depend upon the action of the supreme court.
