VOICE from: the Baloony by RICHARD LEWIS
described the entertainment put on at public festivals by a motley, free-lance collection of jugglers, jesters, acrobats and sleight-of-hand artists plus displays of arms, spices, furs, rare jewels. After entertaining the village folk with their antics, the performers would await the expected shower of copper coins, the standard reward: for their efforts. If they were particularly successful, maybe an occasional piece of silver would plunk down on their portable wooden stage. . But if no coins materialized, the entertainers had no scruples at hurling insults at their audience. Minus the insults, this is approximately the kind -of entertainment that goes on at Keith's —which may or may not account for the medieval vintage of some

Oh Yes, the Show
GETTING BACK to the show over there this week-end, most of the fun is furnished by El Cota and Beatrice. El Cota plays the xylophone and Beatrice does a ballet dance in an old pair of rubbers. Slim Timblin does a gospel take-off which delights the audience, and the firm of Roberta, King & Mann has a nonsense routine which about runs the gamut of nonsense. The dancing is done by Doris DuPont, a good. tap stylist, and the “glamorous” Hollywood models, a chorus, which pinch-hits in the fashion

From Vau-de-Ville to Keith's
IN CASE you harbor the suspicion that Keith's has wandered afield from its mission as a vaudeville house in’ presenting an attractive fur fashion show this week-end, consider for a moment the derivation of that classic form of theater known as vaudeville. Standard references on. the theater trace the origin of the term back to medieval French, “vau-de-ville,” or “play of the ci

Billion Dollar Notes
PLEDGED TO SELL a billion dollars’ worth of war bonds in
| September, the motion picture in-
dustry has heard from its leaders a last-minute warning that it faces the biggest challenge in its career of facing big challenges. “This = drive represents the greatest. example of co-ordinated industry action we've ever had,” said Oscar A. Doob, the. drive's public relations chairman.
“The industry knows that it has taken on a tough assignment. September is the month when income tax instalments are due. In July, the retailers hit only $900,000,000. “Even the treasury department has its doubts that we’ll make the quota. But we’ll show ‘em.” Watch the Indianapolis theaters go to town on this drive. The downtowns and neighborhoods are pitching in.with a will. Tues.day, the ball starts rolling— a bil-lion-dollar ball.
JAUNDICE CASES IN ARMY ARE REDUCED
WASHINGTON, Aug. 28 (U. P.). —War Secretary Henry L. Stimson said today there had been a steady diminution in the number of army hospital -admissions for yellow jaundice since the week of June 14-20.

Tarzan Has
It's Frances Gifford — You Saw: Her in Serials.
By FREDERICK C. OTHMAN United Press Hollywood Correspondent HOLLYWOOD, Aug. 28. — Tarzan's long-time mate, as you doubtless know, is about to have a baby. What we mean is that Miss Maureen O'Sullivan soon will become a mother. And here’s-another Tarzan movie in production and—what to’ do? Simple. The experts gave Johnnie (Tarzan) Weissmuller a new girl friend and hinted in the dialog that his mate was stuck in London by
the war.
Frances Gifford, who wears silver bangles around her forehead, some grease paint, a buckskin brassiere and a little something that -might laughingly be called a skirt.
An Easier Role Last time we saw Miss G. she
|was the queen of a 15-part serial
at Republic. A lion was chasing
her in episode seven straight toward the bottomless pit and she was],
bruised, scratched and. out of breath. Her costume at: that time consisted of a leather jumper which fastened up the back with a zipper. Today Miss Gifford was working in the comparative luxury of a Sol Lesser productions sound stage and suffering no pain. She was the ruler of a lost tribe of white men who'd been enslaved by the Nazi agents. :
Not Arty, but Profitable
Tarzan showed up about then, badly in need of a hair-cut and accompanied by Johnny Sheffield in a clout, and the plot went on from there. It wasn’t art, but it was what the customers have been paying good money to see for a quarter of a century. The first Tarzan picture was produced 25 years ago. Such citizens as Elmo Lincoln, Herman Brix, Glenn Morris, and Buster Crabbe have played Tarzan. Many an
| |actress has started to fame as his
mate. One time Lou Gehrig, the pride of the Yankees, came to town, put on ‘a lion skin and took a screen test-as Tarzan. He turned down the role; said he felt to® naked.
WABASH STARLET
Ww: Ind., Aug. 28 (U. P.).— Margery Stewart, one of the newest
ranks of the ‘glamor school, ended
‘| her war bond-selling campaign in
her native Wabash today by seeing more than $59,000 added to the cof-
fers of the treasury department. The 22-year-old starlet, who
; started her movie career by a 45second appearance in a short sub-|
ject demonstrating “How to Open and Close a Door,” appeared at the Wabash “war bond -day” celebration. She signed autographs for bond buyers while her smile lured
