recently acquired from the Naval
Academy BAND at Annapolis, where
he was euphonium soloist.
One of the most important phases
of Army Band work at this time of
the year is the music furnished by the
Army Band Symphonic Dance OrcheS-
ira. This organization plays the best
grade of dance music for military
functions: also performing concert
music of classical nature for the din
ners and receptions that often precede
the dances. Master Sergt. Carl Hub

chestra. ably assisted by Technical
Sergt. J. L. Young. pianist. who has
talent for transcribing from band
scores for orchestras and making
original arrangements for the COM
bination. Sergt. Young has written
several dance tunes which have
proven popular. Master Sergt. Huber

Famous German Says Music
Reflects Spirit of
the Times.
of the Associated Press.

Correspondence of the Associated Press.
BERLIN, November 25.--America,
through it's Jazz, its rhythm, and its
modern dance, has found the proper
expression for the spirit Of modern
times better than any other nation,
in the opinion of Max Reinhardt.
That john Barrymore is the great
est American actor. Jeanne Eagles
and Lenore Ulrich topnotch actresses,
and Bell-GeddeS n veritable genius IN
devlsing stage scenery We're further
opinions voiced to the Associated Press
by the noted German stage director
Hits Modern Hamlet
Hamlet in full evening dress and
Shylock in bathing tights constitute
so much nonsense, said Renhardt.
America is on the threshold to a
tremendous theatrical future" Rein
hardt observed. There is a yearning,
a craving among American theater-
goers for the best in art such as is
equaled in but few countries.
This yearning. coupled with your
American temperament-'pep, to use
a slang eXpression--and with the ca
pacity of your people to absorb new
ideas, predestines America for lead
Ing position in theatrical art"
Celebrating his ideas concerning
jazz, Reinhardt explained:
THE American feeling for rhythm,
as eXemplitied in jazz. gives better
expression TO the spirit of our time
than any other form of music. Jazz
is literally crying for some one to do
for it what. for instance, Johann
Strauss did for the WaltZ-giye IL con-
crete expression in a manner that will
endure through generations"
For Some Modern Settings.
1t Is going too far. according to
ming dress suit. or to lay the scene of
the Merchant of Venice in the
fashionable Lido off Venice with Shy
lock III bathing toys, as suggested by
one theater producer. At the same
time he is not opposed to the idea of
giving modern setting to old dramas
in which the time element is unim-
portant.
Remember that the shakesperean
plays themselves We're offered in Eliza
bethan costumes when first pro
duced.' he said. although the scenes
were often laid centuries earlier.
In the course of my work as reg
isseur have often observed that
actors made a stronger impression
during rehearsals, when they were
dressed in their street clothing. than
they did afterward during the per
Torrance, when they wore historical
costumes.
Il therefore believe that modern
costumes are often justified in old
plays. But. of course. everything must
be done within reason. Hamlet in full
dress is nonsense. Let me add. how.
ever, that l regard the whole question
OF costumes as secondary. The main
thing is acting"
Reinhardt has just produced Rain
here. marking his first large venture
into the field Of interpreting American
plays TO German audiences.

Bill Hart and Bad Men
"RAD men Of the early frontier |

"BAD men Of the early frontier

bad just as men in other places and

difference was principally in conditions
and the effects of environment on the

they were despised even by others of

Bad men were perhaps more plenti-

They came with goldseekers, home

The gambler was of a higher type
usually, than other doubtful char
actors. There We're plenty Of honest
gamblerS'--at least they were honest
within their limitations and had their
own code of honor, which they lived
up to.
THE peace officer developed as the
natural antithesis of the bad man. He
was tremendously eSsential-and he
more than balanced the scale, for in
time, even the worst-infested localities
were cleaned out by the arm Of the law
in the shape of gun-hghterS who could
beat the bad men at their own game.
There was no sentiment about the
'poor criminal and if there was. he
generally was not there to know about
