COMEDIAN AT LYRIC SEEKING LOCAL TALENT Billy Purl. Producer, Sets Aside Wednesday for •Discovery Night.’ Always seeking new talent for his several stage shows, Billy Purl, comedian and stage producer, now at the Lyric, will sponsor a contest of local aspirants for stage honors, at the Lyric next Wednesday night, the occasion being designated as “Discovery Night.” Any person, over the age of 16, who harbors stage ambitions, and who is anxious for an opportunity to display his or her talents, may appear on the ‘Discovery Night” program by calling on Purl, at the Lyric, and registering their intention to participate. The contest, supervised by Purl himself, will take place at the conclusion of the first evening stage show’ which will start at 6:52 o'clock. Cash prizes will be awarded the winners in addition to a chance of their being placed under contract by Purl. Recruiting new talent for the stage is a hobby with Purl, who, during the years that he has headed his own shows, is credited w’ith having discovered more first class stage material than any other man with the possible exception of Gus Edwards. Many prominent Broadway favorites, as well as leading players now in the movies, began their professional careers under Purl's tuition.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES i

Great Audience Honors Cramer for Fine Playing Indianapolis Pianist Receives Greatest Ovation of His Career Here During Caleb Mills Concert. BY WALTER D. HICKMAN. BOMAR CRAMER, head of the piano department of the Arthur Jordan Conservator;/ of Music and nationally known as a concert pianist, today has a vivid memory of the tremendous ovation he received last night during his recital at Caleb Mills hall. I have heard Mr. Cramer many times, but never has his splendid artistry in playing Chopin received the tremendous approval it did last night. Four Chopin etudes, especially Op. 25 No. 6 and No. 11, were played with such expert technique and understanding that the largest recital audience Mr. Cramer ever has played for here responded with an ovation

of approval w’hich ihs history making. Mr. Cramer struck the popular responsive note in his audience when he opened the second group w’ith Debussy numbers and topped that off in splendid playing of Ravel's “Toccata.” His Ravel is magnificent in its beauty of technique and tone. Much attention was focused upon Beethoven’s “Sonata, Op. Ill,” which is a mass of technical problems. It is easy to make comparisons of the playing of this sonata, but Mr, Cramer triumphed at all times. , Another important number w’as Schumann’s “Kreisleriana, Op. 16,” a group of eight pieces played without intermission. These compositions reflect the many moods of Schumann and the correct playing requires the proper interpretation of every mood. Mr. Cramer supplied the required interpretations. Mr. Cramer is a vital factor in Indianapolis in the ever-growing movement of musical interpretation. He appeared last night under the auspices of Mu Phi Epsilon and Sigma Alpha lota in a benefit for scholarship funds. a an Indianapolis theaters today offer: Billy Purl’s show on the stage and “Tillie and Gus” on the screen at the Lyric; tie Weaver Brothers and Elviry on the stage and “Take a Chance” on the screen at the Indiana, “Dangerous Corner” at English’s, “Streets of Paris” in the Indiana ballroom, “Jungle Killer” at the Ohio, “Private Detective 62" at Keith's, “Should Ladies Behave?” at the Palace, “The Invisible Man” at the Apollo, “Little Women” at the Circle, and burlesque at the Mutual and Colonial.
