''NEWSIES" A HIT
State Journal Boys Split Sides
at Novelty Show.
Noodles Pagan Coached Them
to a Riot of Fun.

One hundred and thirty-five stall
wart street merchants who sell the
Topeka State Journal heard Noodles
Pagan at the Novelty last night in his
feature comedy act
Before 9 o'clock the boys lined up
clad in their unday-go-to-meetin s
and some in their last years Sunday
go-to-meetin's. One S-year-old COL
ored boy had on his fathers Sunday
trousers. Every act was extended by
the performers who realized that they
had a bubbling spirited audience
which was generous with applause.
Sixty members of the Rotary club
with their wives and friends went in
a body from Brunts drug store and
occupied a section.
Noodles Pagan was pre-eminently
the hit of the evening. He is one Of
the few actors ever in Topeka who can
put his enthusiasm and hustle across
the footlightS to such a degree that
the audience will sing with him. lie
sang many popular songs accom-
panied by the newsboys. A favorite
was Give a Little Credit to Your
Dad Songs of the past gave many
members of the Rotary club an in
centive to carol with the orchestra.
The audience rollicked in their
seats during the newsboys' carnival,
the miniature merchants went up on
the stage, Pagan made them forget
the footlights and sing America fol-
lowed by series of stunts and con
tests 49, There was a, cracker contest,
bread and milk contest and a
stringed weinie contest. Cinnamon
Wins" greeted the finish of a boxing
match.
The State Journal yelling contest
was accompanied by prize to the
newsboy who typed" a fire extra II
the most up-to-date and acceptable
manner. The audience awarded the
prize. a watch, to Elias Gartner.
Perhaps the most amusing stunt of
the evening took place when five col
ored ''newsies'' dived into a pan Of
flour after a ball The transforma-
ton was remarkable.
Parents of the boys were 'phoning
to the theater to see if the show was
over when the boys filed out at 11:36
o'clock. Queries were made by the
boys as to when Noodles Pagan
would return to Topeka, a return
hardly probable as big time vaude-
vile" only comes as close as Kansas
City.
News that there would be a special
show for the Rotary club and the
''newsies" brought a capacity crowd
out for the second show.
Charley Dean won the boxing con
test, John Finney won the weinie con-
test, Fay Lewis won the flour diving
contest and Norris Gartner and Ray
Wilson won the cracker contest.
