May Festival Director Praises Richmond1 s Season of Music

Praise for Richmond's season of music comes from a high source. The source is J. Herman Thuman, music critic for the Cincinnati Enquirer, managing director of the Cincinnati May Festival association and leading impresario of the Queen City. In a letter to Forrest Davis, director of the People's Music Course, Thuman praised the Richmond season highly. He commented favorably on the fact that the season is well-balanced. An orchestra, a soprano, a contralto, a tenor, a violinist and a pianist, he believed, gave the season sufficient

range to satisfy the most divergent

tastes.

He Knows Them All All of the artists have appeared un

der Thuman's direction at one time or another.

Eastern Indiana music-lovers are

agreeing with Thuman in approving

the season to be provided by the Peoples Music Course and which opens with the Cincinnati Symphony orchestra concert, November 7.

The advance season ticket sale is

progressing rapidly and indications are that tho Coliseum will be sold out to season ticket holders before the llrst week in November.

Sunday afternoon and made an attempt to steel a big car owned by Lee Parks, of Dixon township. He did not quite understand handling the machine, so returned to the grounds and got into a six-cylinder car owned by Matthew Shields, of Arcanum, Ohio. The lad drove from the grounds and went west through the city and out the Richmond pike. At a point near the home of R. E. Morrow, eight miles west of here, he lost control of the machine and ran into a pole supporting wires of the Ohio Electric railway. The pole was broken squarely off and the machine badly damaged. The lad abandoned the car, but was soon over taken by the officers. The boy told Sheriff Taylor he was short of funds and decided to steal the machine to go to Richmond, from which place he expected to go to Indianapolis.

Celebrities have had institutions and

even trees named after them, but Douglas Fairbanks Is perhaps the first

to have a mountain peak bear his

name.

It was during the production of some mountain scenes in California recently, for "Down to Earth," the new

Fairbanks-Artcraft picture at the Mur-" ray theatre, that the popular actor

was approached byD. G. Desmond,

United States government official, who

after ten minutes of eloquence, con'

eluded by saying that it was hiS pleasure to announce that one of the most picturesque mountain peaks had been named in his honor in Yosemite Valley. The energetic Douglas thanked the official for the honor and proved his appreciation by doing a hand-stand on a dizzy precipice of the mountain. MURRETTE "I am really living this picture," Mme. Petrova was heard to observe the other day during the filming of her latest Paramount Picture, "The Law of the Land." "It is one of the most vitally thrilling and intense pictures in which I have ever appeared," she continued, "and I find that after a few scenes I actually merge my own Identity - with that of Margaret, poor, fragile Margaret, accused of murdering her own husband.
