Normal production for a six-day period would be about 660,000 tons but. much of that would have been lost anyway because of regular miner holidays falling this week.

At Shrine Circus Here

Polack Bros. Performers at Murat Theater Offer 20 Fast-Moving Acts

By HENRY

BUTLER

Kids’ laughter is the genuine thing. A lot of it resounded in the Murat theater yesterday afternoon when the Shrine-Polack Bros. circus opened its two-week run of 36 sched-

uled performances. x Busily munching popcarn, the colorful, fast-moving variety show. They hollered and whistled ap-|] proval of clowns, elephants, bare-| back riders, acrobats, jugglets—all the traditional circus stuff. They got a big kick out of the ridiculous antics of the Black Bros.,, tramp comedians and acrobats; the incredible bareback somersaulting act put on by the Giustino Loyal troupe; the amazing juggling of the Five Willys, whose finale is done with lighted torches.
