DESIGN GUARDS U.S. BOMB SIGHT
Army Assembles It After ~ Many Factories Make - Various Parts.
WASHINGTON, |Nov. 12.—There have been more rumors, hot tips and general misunderstandings about the famous Army bomb sight during the last eight months than about any other single item of American defense equipment. | Latest | story is: that the bomb sight has finally been released to
+ Great Britain. This promptly drew a flat denial from the War Depart- | you believe the]
ment.: Whether Sniginal story or the denial is up to
lt Lunerpoat is that the
British have placed an order for|..
bomb sights with an American company which does the same sort of work for the U. S. Army. That may be how the story got started. The thing to remember, though, is that no manufacturer makes the Army’s bomb sight. Fact is that this bomb sight is about the most intricate and complicated = mechanism imaginable. One manufacturer makes one part, another makes a second, a third makes a third part, and so on. The Army .does thé ‘°assembling—and while you might know all about the making of three-fourths of the parts, you still wouldn't have the low-down on the entire bomb sight. Even that isn’t all. An Army officer once said that even if a plane equipped with the bomb sight should pass into the hands of a for=eign’ nation, it would take that nation six months to po the thing | out.

Clifton Webb At English’s
Woolcott Caricature at English’ s Theater.
Tonight Indianapolis is going to have the pleasure of meeting Sheridan Whiteside at English’s, And it
seems only fair to add that the pleasure of the meeting will be due solely to the circumstance that Indianapolis will be on the other side of the footlights from him. Mr. Whiteside is “The Man Whe Came to Dinner,” which is also the name of the play by George 8S. Kaufman and Moss Hart in which he appears. He's a caricature of Alexander Woollcott (not even Mr. Woollcott or Messrs. Kaufman and Hart make any bones about it) and he will be played by Clifton Webb. The play’s engagement will continue through Saturday night. Here's a description of Mr, Whiteside, written by one who sat across the footlights from him on an earlier occasion, which will give you an idea of what to expect: “He owes his eminence in the world to a testy disposition, lightning wit, the clever and cruel tongue of an insect, hobbyish devotion to murder mysteries and old charities, and a subtly selfish motive in everything. “When it pleases him‘ he ‘can exude charm, especially for people of importance and over the radio— which pays him well both ways. Crossed in his slightest caprice, he would ‘set fire to his mother—if that were the only way for him to light his cigaret,’ as one bold character tells him to his teeth. “Of course, the authors see to it that Mr. Whiteside is liberally whitewashed before the evening is over, but not. before they have dipped him in blackest deviltry. “Mr. Whiteside has his friends, though. They are the celebrities of the world: All smart setters, actors, actresses, authors, chefs, kings, crackpots and all the grand panjandrums of the movies. “The great man graciously receives their homage and their gifts at Christmas—for Christmas was created for Mr, Whiteside—and in the heat of their glowing talents he forever warms his hands.”

MUSIC
'Vintage—1912' Is Best-Liked Dance Of Graff Ballet's Program Here
By JAMES THRASHER
IT SEEMS CERTAIN that local balletomanes, if they wait with patience, eventually shall have a taste of modern dance trends served
to them at home.
At least there was another course served last night
at English's to supplement the diet provided in recent years by the Ballet Russe, the Jooss troupe and Trudi Sch Last evening's performers were the Graff Ballet, presented by the
Indianapolis. Branch, American Association of University Women. A generous program of eight numbers, two full-sized ballets and the rest shorter pieces, was offered. Grace and Kurt Graff were not only the choreographers, but the featured dancers as well. Joseph Hawes, one of the two off-stage pianists, was responsible for the music of the two long ballets of the evening, “Ode to the Living’ and “Singing Earth,” as well for that of “Preface,” a brief abstraction which opened the program, y 8» ELSEWHERE WERE a duet called Con Vivo, danced by Mr. and Mrs. Graff to a Scarlatti sonta; a comic item called “Gar-
den Party,” to David Sheinfeld’s music; a Romance, again by the featured pair, with music of Erik Satie; “Rennaisance,” with a score by David Campbell, and “Vintage —1912," subtitled “An impression of early American ragtime,” danced to a nostalgic medley in which the “Darktown Strutters’ Ball” and “Oh, Johnny,” figured prominently. This last was quite the hit of the evening, and deservedly so. The costumes was colorful, the music lively, and the satire a pointed and amusing one on the archaic period of the jazz age. Likewise highly commendable was the Romange, charmingly costumed and lighted and danced with telling grace. ” » »
OTHERWISE THE ENJOYMENT was not entirely unalloyed. For one thing, Mr. and Mrs. Graff —the latter particularly—provided most of the good dancing. The five young women and four men who comprised the rest of the troupe were competent and agile, but there was a noticeable lack of the polish which one has come to expect from practicioners of the dance. As to style, the Graffs’ choreography is eclectic, with emphasis upon the German school of bare feet and angularity. Which is all right, except that the choreography was also so lacking in variety as to make the longer
numbers wear woefully thin before the end.
What the audience saw would probably come under the heading of “symbolical” ballet. But symbolism without narrative, such as was the order in “Ode to the Living,” becomes a little too vague for comfort. Without the program one was quite lost. And my reading of it after the dancing shed little more light on what had gone before. The Graffs’ miming was a$ good as their dancing, but the rest of the company stomped and whirled through their paces with scarcely a dive beneath the surface of the steps.

Jana, caricaturist extraordinary
more and more logical. Roughly 28 years ago, he was born in Philadelphia and dubbed Joseph Charles Janelunas. That's a bit, difficult on a marquee so it was neatly cut to Jana. From his high school and a gymnastics club he received a scholarship to the Normal College of the American Gymnastics Union here, From there he went to Indiana University which awarded him a bachelor ‘of ‘science degree in physical education in 1935.
Modeled for Taflinger
All this while (starting back in Philadelphia) he also had studied art. For a time it had been at the Art Student's League in New York. Then he absorbed quite a lot of instruction when he worked as a model in Elmer Taflinger’s studio here. His art courses ran right slong with his other . studies at + 13., 100. With graduation came an offer of a physical education instructor’s job in the Muncie High School. He didn’t even follow that up. Instead he started barnstorming over the nation with circuses and carnivals, drawing caricatures. “It was more fun,” he says.
With Morgan Five Weeks
This jaunt ended up in Mexico where he stopped during 1936 and 1937 to study with Diego Rivera and other modernists. Then it was back to barnstorming, this time in hotels and night clubs. He worked his way from Texas up through the southern states to Pennsylvania and New York. After playing such spots as the Waldorf and the Rainbow Room, he moved into the Hotel Pennsylvania where Russ Morgan was playing. Five weeks ago when Mr. Morgan began a nation-wide swing he took Jana with him. Not only does he find this touring “great fun,” but it also is build-

week at the Lyric, is—at first glance—a paradox. This is because you'd hardly imagine a graduate of [the Normal College of the American Gymnastics Union and an Indiana University physical education major as a portrait painter. But after absorbing some of Jana’'s ideas on painting he becomes
ing a foundation for portrait paint= ing because “caricature work is getting down to fundamentals.” “It takes 'a good caricaturist to be a good portrait artist, because caricaturists are interested only in essentials and a knowledge of ese sentials is necessary for a good pore trait.”
