More of Same, Demand From Jitterbugs Swingin’
With Benny and Drummer |
Goodman May Be 'Agin’ ‘Em but Crowd at Lyric| |
Never Would Know It by Watching 'King' Cut Loose; Vocalist Is Thrice Clapped Back.
A house full of jitterbugs clapped, whistled and ‘yelled for more at
Benny Goodman’s opening yesterday afternoon at
. According to one of our magazines, Benny is B just the same. The whole audience
he put on a fine show for them, really got into the groove when a gleaming grin, took over with beat and wouldn’t let him quit. When the Quartet began, with Hampton at the vibraphone, they cheered and clapped and Hampton just grinned and got “meaner.” (0) course, he ad libbed on a bunch of “yeahs” which the “king of swing” himself supplied when Mr. Hampton was engaged in some particularly intricate “jivery.” Martha Tilton, the vocalist, almost didn’t get away either; she was clapped back three times from “Deep Purple” to “The Cuckoo lin the Clock,” “Won't 6 You Hurry Home”? and “Jeepers ‘Creepers.”
Looks Like Teacher
The “King,” who is the very--much-master-of-the-situation type, wears glasses and looks as if he should be conducting a class in English composition. Instead, he cuts loose on a clarinet. The orchestra’s opener was “Stardust”’—always a cinch for In- .. dianapolis. The Goodman Trio offered “The World Is Waiting for the Sunrise” and “Exactly Like You,” and the Quartet put on “Dinan,” “I Got Rhythm” and “Moonglow.” The show was meat, of course, to action camera fiends. Tap dancer Eunice Healey and two clown acrobats were the other stage attractions, with “Secret Service of the Air,” starring Ronald Reagan, on the screen.
Apollo Bills 2 ‘Revivals
Capra's Recognized Hits Are Brought Back.
" The Apollo’s current pictures, having long since gone through their “subsequent run” and neighborhood theater showings, emerge again to constitute a fuli-fledged revival. They are, “It Happened - One Night” and “Mr. Deeds Goes to Town.” The former, made in 1934.
was among the 10 best picture seles-:
tions for that year, and “Mr. Deeds” was accorded a similar honor in 1936. Frank Capra directed both pictures, and the earlier film was the first of his series of .successes. He was awarded , the Academy director's award for both these pro- - ductions. Clark Gable and Claudette Colbert are the stars of “It Happened One Night.” This feature started, among other things, the boy-hits-girl cycle of cinema courtship, which was paid the sincere flattery of imitation for some four subsequent seasons. Gary Cooper and Jean Arthur play the leads in “Mr. Deeds.”
Sextet Fens at Manual Monday
A Chicago string sextet, “La Petite Ensemble,” will give a recital at Manual High School auditorium Monday afternoon. Wednesday afternoon two one-act plays will be presented by the Junior Red Cross and Mask and Wig Clubs.
“Midnight Ghost” will be direct- | j
ed by Robert Turpin. Members of the cast are Misses Irma Schneider, Frances Searcy, Dorsey Linville, Gloria Phillips, Mary Spalding and Hermine Waltz and Carl de Felice, .Prancis Jefferies and Kenneth Kritch. £ The other, “Teeth of a .Gift Horse,” will be directed by Miss Dawn Hoeferkamp, who is assisted * by Misses Lillian Chernin, Ednd May Hicks, Rita. Wahy, Bernice Berger and Marcella Smith and Donald Wallis and J. D. Small. Meanwhile it was announced that Miss Searcy had been chosen from seven contestants to represent Manual at.an essay contest sponsore® by the Daughters of the American Revolution. Homemaking will be the subject for the essay. A three-act comedy by Charles Quimby Burdette, “New Fires,” has been chosen as the Senior Play for this year. Casting has already begun under the direction. of E. Edward Green, faculty director.

Indianapolis, which hasn’t done so :
badly by itself this season (in fhe matter of “world premieres” of films and music, may add a play's first performance to its list this month. Vincent Burke, English’s, manager, today was awaiting confirmation of Katharine Cornell's opening of S. N. Behrman’s “No Time for Comedy” here on March 30. The date has been reported from New York but, at this writing, no confirmation of the engagement was forthcoming from the theater. Cornell admirers are hoping that “No Time for Comedy” will prove a successful = vehicle for the distinguished actress. - Her last play to reach Broadway was Maxwell Anderson’s “Wingless Victory,” which, according to consensus, was more of a personal triumph for the star than a first-rate play. :
Casting: Delayed
Last season found Miss Cornell in retirement. This year she tried out “Herod and Miriamne” cn the road, but withdrew it because of adverse The appearance of the new Behrman opus has been delayed because of casting trouble. Supposed to go into rehearsal in January, preparation was delayed several weeks when Robert Montgomery was prevented from leaving Hollywood to take the male lead. Lieurence Oliver, the English actor, eventually was sclected for the part. Early reports had it that Miss Cornell would tour the Midwest before opening in New York. About two weeks ago it was stated that “No Time for Comedy” would open on the West Coast and remain there until next fall. Still more recently Columbus, O. was announced for the premiere. And now it appears that Indianapolis may get the first lopk. alll
Mary A. Kullmer |n Podium Debut
Belated news of Mary Ann Kullmer’s successful debut as a conductor in Germany has been received in Indianapolis by Ferdinand Schaefer, her teacher for many years before her present period of European study. Miss Kullmer made her debut with the Berlin Landesorchestra, following a “practice debut” which Mr. Schaefer arranged with the Kurorchestra of Wiesbaden | last summer. The young Indianapolis musician sent the press notices of her Berlin concert to Mr. Schaefer. Typical quotations from eight favorable reviews are the following: “One has, in general, a deepseated distrust against women conducting. A shining exception! to this feeling was established hy a young American, Miss Mary Ann | Kullmer, who made her debut at | the Sing Academy. : “She comes from the State of Indiana, U. S. A. Miss Kullmer doubtless is one of the very few women who really lead an orchestra when conducting. With her relaxed but definite technique, she Keeps the orchestra always in hand.
‘Seldom Were Any Better’
“There is ‘atmosphere’ about her performance. Taken in all, one must admit that the Landesorchestra seldom has been led by better conductors.” — Fredrich Herdfeld, Allgemeine Musikzeitung. “Women as symphony conductors are very, scarce. Up to now, none has achieved real fame. It seems, however, that with the young American, Mary Ann Kullmer, g real ialent has come over from the U. S. A., with the gift and a solid schooling that will enable her to make a career as an orchestral conductor. Already today, one may rank Mar Ann Kullmer with well-known art-

Symphony Orchestra concerts.
Hadley and Elgar in the program’s purely orchestral portions; .Miss Halstead sang “‘Senta’s Ballad” from Wagner’s “The Flying Dutchman,” Duparc’s “Invitation su Voyage” and Schubert’s “Der Erlkoenig.” Schumann, despite his: undisputable claims to eminence as a composer of songs and piano music, cannot be ranked with the great symphonists. Neither the Englishman Elgar nor the American Hadley quite managed to invoke their nations’ spirit in music, despite some patriotic supporters’ claims. The Weber music heard yesterday was Berlioz’ transcription . of - the piano work, “Invitation to the Dance,” which, for all ‘its ‘charm, lays no claim to. greatness. : Even the Wagner aria was of that master’s early and formative period.’
Includes Seldom Heard Works
Yet the program managed tobe one of more than ordinary enjoyment and satisfaction, and Mr. Sevitzky is to be thanked for the inclusion of some seldom heard ‘works. In the music critics’ and. historians’ preoccupation with greatness, we are apt to overlook the masterpieces of somewhat lesser stature. = : The : afternoon’s symphony was the Schumann No. 4, in D Minor, a work well beloved though, like all the Schumann ‘@ symphonies, of strangely uneven quality. A certain selfconsciousness seems to crop out in much of Schumann’s orchestral writing. Like Chopin, he seldom. was at home in ‘the sonata form. His achromanticism seemed to congeal when he trod the path of Beethoven. In spite of the Fourth Symphony's many charming moments, its chief fault seems to be, paradoxically, that it is so unSchumannesque. The concert’s high point was Mr. Sevitzky’s reading of Elgar’s “Enigma” Variations: There are times, certainly, when these virtuoso variations take on some stodginess with a less sympathetic interpreter. But
ists upon the same level. The outstanding young musician rightly received stormy applause.”—Waiter Steinhauer, Berliner Morgenpost. “Here is an unusual endowment in a woman. The virtuosity and sensitivity with which. she conducted Strauss and Berlioz (without a score) is a challenge to well-known tmen of the baton.”—Alfred Burgartz, Berliner Illustrierte Nachtedition.

Lesser Known Composers Get Symphony Attention
By JAMES THRASHER
Genius of ‘gomething less than the white-heat variety is coming in for the major share of attention on this week’s pair of Indianapolis
Margaret Halstead, American soprano, was_the soloist at the concert which Fabien Sevitzky conducted at the Murat yesterday, and which will be repeated tonight. The composers represented were Schumann, Weber,
Mr. Sevitzky’s conception had the full measure of suavity -and force as the occasion required. Each sec-
tion was polished and persuasive, and the entire work was conducted with an assurance, conviction and appreciation that made its hearing a rare delight. Gets Best Out- of Music -As much can be said of Hadley’s Symphonic Fantasia, though it is a work of less scope. This composer seems to be one of Mr. Sevitzky’s favorites among the Americans, and from the music in question he extracted the essence of its dramatic fire and colorful brilliance. Miss Halstead’s projection of three great and contrasting examples of her art seemed hampered by a lack of vocal poise. A sustained legato and its attendant purity of tone were missing, and as a result the interpretations were marred by vocal exaggerations and mannerisms which had little to do with the music in question.

Grandfather Christopher West wants the match to come to something; he likes the guy, so he connives with Cupid to get the marriage on the right road. ‘Things get slightly dull on a yacht party but the alarm clock rings in time to see the green-eyed monster appear when Fred upholds his friendship for “the -girl upstairs” (Shirley Ross—just a pal).

Mr. Cantor was one of Mr. Roger’s closest friends, having appeared with him in the Ziegfeld Follies and on the vaudeville stage.

To speed them on their way to heaven, they chose the meek Cosme Topper; their good deed would he to inject a little fun into Topper’s drab and proper life. It also will be remembered that the Kerbys had just so much “ectoplasm” at their disposal, so they were forced to become invisible at intervals in |order to preserve their limited solidity.

This handicap turned out to be a distinct boon, and so it remains in the present film. At its outset we find that Mr. Kerby has |done his Boyscoutly bit, and depa for the promised land. (The fact: is that
Cary Grant, who was Mr. Kerby, was busy on another picture when the second “Topper” opus was in preparation.) But Mrs. Kerby. is still about, since her previous gestures of good will have landed the Toppers on the threshhold of the divorce court. The present film is taken up with the Toppers’ trip to the Riviera. There are varied and amusing complications as Mrs. Kerby| tries to reconcile the couple, and| a bogus nobleman tries to woo Mrs. Topper’ s fortune. In the end, of course, the Toppers are reunited, and Mrs. Kerby is seen heading for heaven+this une, ‘Wwe fear, for good.
