COAL AND IRON
POLICE OFFICERS SLUG COAL MINER

Plttsburgh-(FP) = Mike Du- i
oaSn' as his name indicates, is only |
a nuhkle. He has therefore no
rlghCs Which the coal and iron po-
nee OF western Pennsylvania need
bother to respect.
30 William Burns, coal and iron
policeman employed by the Con-
sumers Mining Co. of Harmarville,
slugged Mike twice with black
JACK. Then he pulled a gun, fore
ing Mike into his flivver. Down
the road went the coal miner till
ne came to a friends home. There
ne got out, hailed taxi, and fled
to his own house.
Burns followed to his doorstep
and laid in wait. "I'm going to
get that damned Dudash," Burns
swore. That evening the coal Dig
ger went to a picnic. Just as he
was passing the company camp, a
big car swerved into his. Dudash's
fhvver was badly banged up and
Dudash himself is still unable TO
work.
The incident, not extraordinary
in itself, for western Pennsylvania
miners and steel workers are in
ured to coal and iron police bru-
tality, gains significance in light
of Gov. Fishers glib assertion that
eve haven't had complaint
about a coal and iron policeman
for some time," and the approach

who slugged and tortured John
Barkoski, coal digger, to his death

next day, and approached by Po-

looking for cash, for the very next

This time he was fired for good.

Red"
It is the managing-director
Of the Hay-Adams House who
takes this column to say Happy
Anniversary" in which I join.
Read his letter.
Dear Judge:
IF your ever open ear has
not heard this news, then, you
should do. for 1t is indeed an
anniversary today.
"Just thirty-seven years ago
this day a young, handsome
and sprightly youth, full of the
joy of living and with an IN
born love of the theater decided
to propose to a very beautiful
young lady with whom he was
very much in love.
"At the time they were play.
ing UP in Wisconsin, and you
can imagine his joy when she
accepted him. They boarded
a train for Chicago, and there,
Judge, tl1irty-seven years ago
today, they became man and
wife.
Today, the youth grown gray
in the service of the art he
loves, sits in his office sur
rounded by pictures given him
by admiring friends of the thea
ter. This office, a Veritable
shrine of memories.
HE still retains the zest Of
youth, sprishtty step and is
known and loved by every
theatergoer of this village of
ours. His delightful wife,
always his constant companion
and help is by his side. Still
as happy and as much in love
as that November twentieth
thirty-seven years ago when
they became one.
Eyes, Judge, you are right.
They are Uncle Stoddard and
Mrs. Taylor. Bless their hearts.
II know that you and the
thousands who read your words
OF wisdom on things theatrical
will join me in wishing Uncle"
Stoddard and his boss many,
many more years of happiness,
good health and prosperity, and
to hope that they will always
be with us. For to imagine
the theater without the Smil-
ing, genial Stoddard Taylor, Is
like imagining Weber without
Fields, or ham without eggs.
Incidentally, in all the years
I have known Stoddard Taylor,
the only kick I have coming is
his unsurpassed and unSurpass-
able sartorial elegance. It dis
courages young man to spend
two hours Of perspiring effort
in making himself as elegantly
attired as possible to visit the
Belasco, only to arrive there
and find the ravishing Uncle

making you feel in all his ele-
gance that you should have
come around the back way.
It's discouraging to a young
hopeful.
Join me in wishing them
happiness, Judge. There are
few such folks as these two:
If there were more, what q
great place this world would be.
Sincerely,

Yiddish Musical At

the New York YiddiSh stage.
The company will give a per.
formance at the Auditorium

three performances during the
week at the Embassy Theater
in Baltimore. A different show
will be presented each week.

Scribed as a musical melo-

3essional model for commercial
artists.
After this introduction let me
Introduce Miss Joesting Of the
movies. She is with Metro
Goldwyn, a talking test having
resulted in an engagement. Her
first part in a picture was Lord
Byron of Broadway" in which
Ukulele Ike Edwards is featured.
Right now she is appearing with
Blanche Sweet in might Host
eSs." In both pictures she has
q small speaking part.
Shortly after her success in
the Washington beauty contest,
Miss Joesting took a camera
test at the invitation of one Of
the larger producing companies.
The result was not satisfactory,
for, while she was comely
enough, it was decided she was
not screen type. Her latest
rehearsal for camera and micro
phones resulted in contract.
The ink was hardly dry on
yeSterda US Gleanings and
Screenings column when one
Of its regular readers hastened
to inform the editor that while
the afternoon prices on F
Street were all that, the eco
nomical amusement seeker
could desire, the night admis-
sion tariffs at both the Fox
and the Palace Theaters had
been hoped a bit.
One Of the pleasant ad->
vantageS Of an editors cour-
tesies is that he doesn't have to
fatten the box office finances
and accordingly the slight in
crease in admission scales had
passed unnoticed. The advance
is 5 cents in the balcony and
10 cents for orchestra seats
after 6 p. m.
Those whose memory Of what
was printed in these columns
ol1e month ago is acute may
recall that such an advance in
prices was predicted for the
first run movie houses on F
Street. The suggestion was
pooh -poohed at the time al
though it came from an
authentic New York source
which gave as the reason, the
increased cost of the talking
pictures. The prediction comes
true and the same reason ap-
plies.
s'Death Takes Holiday" will
have another title before long.
It may be 1.-THE Magnificent
Adventure" or it may be Loves
Victory" or any one OF a half
dozen new titles now under
consideration for the new play
At the Belasco Theater. At any
rate the word Death" will be
eliminated. It sounds ohinous
to too many playgoers and
leads to a belief that a really
tlaoughtful and well written
drama is depressing in theme.
Also the happy ending which
was shown when the play de
buted here Monday night will
be kept. Another ending which
Playwright Ferriss regarded as
more logical was tried out Tues
day night and the audience re-
action was definitely in favor
az love triumphant.
