CHACO WAFARE MAY ENDANGER NICHOLSONS Bolivian Planes Have Already Bombed Two Cities, F v T< >nf* Special WASHINGTON, May 15 —Threats to bomb Asuncion, the capital of Paraguay, which are made almost daily by Bolivia are causing expressions of concern here for the safety of Mr. and Mrs. Meredith Nicholson. The famed Hoosier author is now United States minister to Paraguay. Latest report was that Mr. Nicholson had called at the foreign office In Asuncion last week to inquire whether the Paraguayan army hr.d made arrangements for defense of the city from aerial bombardment. He was assured the city would be defended. Bolivian bombing planes, operating in the Chaco Boreal warfare against Paraguay, bombed two Paraguayan cities last week.

Powerful Performance Given Here By Schwartz’ Yiddish Art Group

Ti/TAURICE SCHWARTZ and his ■*•*■*■ Yiddish art theater, in presenting the Jewish legend. "Yoshe Kalb," which means in English, "Yoshe, the Simpleton,” at English's, last night, proved that his theater is universal. It made no difference that Yiddish was foreign to me, but so perfect was the pantomime, the intense feeling, the terror, the superstitions and the horrors that the story book on complete form and understanding. That is the test which has made Mr. Schwartz and his theater an institution which interests, charms and educates all people. The Yiddish art theater has much in common with the Moscow art theater, insofar as art, makeup, realism and devotion to a principle are concerned. The theater of Mr. Schwartz is colorful, fascinating, cruel and beautiful. The realism of makeup was accomplished by a wizardry which makes all characters from the powerful rabbis to the most humble beggar. The beggars wwe sure-enough rags and the makeup, screams and expression of Zivyah, the moronic daughter of Konoh, a sexton in the town of Byalegure, is a triumph in terrible realism. It is only in the Yiddish art theater and the Moscow art theater that one may find such repulsive, but remarkable realism.

GERMAN SCIENTISTS * ARE IN BALLOON CRASH N'ondirigible Craft Discovered on Russian Soil. B;i United Press BERLIN, May 15.—Dr. Hermann Victor Mausch, meteorologist, was found dead today in the wreckage of Germany’s largest nondirigible balloon, "Bartsch von Sigsfeld,” twelve miles east of the Latvian town of Boenaburg, on Russian soil.

IN* the hands of Helen Zelinska,, Zivyah was one of the most ter- j rifying females of brute tendencies; I have ever witnessed on the stage, i This was one of the most remarkable performances I have ever witnessed. This terrifying masterpiece was found especially in three acts of j madness in this odyssey of the wan-! dering of the neglected Yoshe Kalb. Here was moronic acting of such strength that our legitimate stage would not dare to be a realistic. Mr. Schwartz gave proof from his first appearance as the scheming Reb Melech, Nyesheve rabbi, that he has the right to be considered the most powerful and outstanding Jewish actor in America today. Although one may not be acquainted with Yiddish, Mr. Schw'artz, by his great mastery of tragedy as well as comedy, was able to make this character grow and wither as he died of old age and a broken heart at the trial scene of Yoshe Kalb as the rabbis met in solemn session to pronounce sentence of his sins. a a a THE death scene of Mr. Schwartz will remain for a long time one of the outstanding ones on the stage because it was done so simply and yet with such vast power. It was superb acting on the part of Mr. Schwartz and every member of the company. If I may use an expression which may seem trite,

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

every one in the cast last night performed as if they were the star of the story as far as acting was concerned. It is impossible to go into detail regarding the twenty-six scenes and the many characters. Every character was fully etched and at least ten were masterpieces. The handling of the lights was another marvelous accomplishment. It was the most effective handling of lights I have seen in the modern theater. Mr. Schwartz in his direction knows how to use darkness, light and shadows in a masterful way. Although the character of Yoshe Kalb is a w r eak one and at times mystical, in the hands of Lazar Freed it was splendidly subordinated to the rest of the characters on the stage. In that it was a masterpiece and one of the outstanding performances. The Yiddish Art theater is a tremendous institution and long may it exist. U tt tt On View Here Today INDIANAPOLIS theaters today offer: "Viva Villa” at Loew’s Palace; "20 Million Sweethearts” at the Circle; ‘‘As the Earth Turns” and "The Trumpet Blow's” at the Indiana; vaudeville on the stage and ‘ Merry Wives or Reno” on the screen at the Lyric; ‘‘Now I’ll Tell” at the Apollo, and “Lazy River” at the Ambassador.
