NEW YORK, March B
IN.S.).-Death has claimed
another member of the gang
of Broadway racketeers headed
by Arnold Rothstein and
Thomas Fatty Walsh, who
was murdered in Florida early
yesterday.
When the Clyde Liner Shawnee
docked here shortly before noon to-
day it was revealed that Jack Waller
once high III the directorate or the
BroadWay.Ro Ehstein gang had either
leaped overheard or had been pushed
from the deck of the vessel on Tues

Ed. Wilson, big time gambler OF
New York and Chicago, is being
sought as the slayer OF Walsh.
Police Commissioner Grover A.
Whalen today reiterated his deciara-
ton that the Walsh murder would
lead to early solution of the Roth
stein killing and probably to the Yale
staying.

racketeers. most Of them former
associates of Rothstein's. congre-
gated there at the present time," he
said. 1.-THE gang is beginning to
tear itself apart. They're fighting
among themselves and somebody
is going to talk"
Irene Walsh. one of the four
pretty unmarried sisters OF Fatty
Walsh, denied today that her
brother was formerly Arnold Roth
STEMS bodyguard. She said he had
served the gambler as an expert on
financial matters.
'Tom had plenty Of money" Miss
Walsh said. "He was worth hun
dreds of thousands. and was inter
ested in real estate in Miami"
The mother of the murdered man,
Mrs. Katherine Walsh, woman
well beyond so, was prostrated at
the news OF his death.
Accuses CapOBe
While the Walsh Staying was
stirring New York detectives into
action, District Attorney Charles
Dodd, of Brooklyn, went to Chi

NOTEDGERMAN
DANCERS in
RECITAL

"A
duet Interpretation of a flag
dance introduced Harold Kreutz-
berg and Yvonne Georgi to a
select and curious audience at
Polls Theater, yesterday, after
noon.
Opponents of the modernlstic
schools of dancing, the German
artists have brought to Amer
lea an expression of terpsichor-
can art surrounding all i'm
pressioniStic modes that have
reached our stages heretofore.
So utterly regardless of con-
vention are they in their
presentation of the numbers,
that an audience however
sophisticated, is startled at
first reception. 1t is not Suf-
ficient merely to look on, while
these dynamic dancers WORK
out their intricate patterns, one
must submit completely to
mood of the moment and be-
come submerged into the spirit
of the dance.
Kreutzberg and Georgi have
been acclaimed only recently.
Although Kreutzberg was dane
ing in New York for some time
his genius lay hidden. 1t is
since they have presented them
selves to the world as a team
that the laurels have come to
them. Both dancers have
worked in the balletS of Berlin
and Hanover Operas, in fact
they were trained in the Mary
Wigman School in Berlin. 1t Is
therefore not surprising that
upon meeting very much later.
they were perfectly adapted to
each other and their steps
matched perfectly.
It is the dancing of Kreutz-
berg which stands out most
prominently on a program. Out
of a maze of difficult patterns
which he weaves after a fash
ion entirely distinct and orig
inal, he creates a vivid. living
idea, that thrills and sometimes
almost frightenS.
His Interpretation of the
Dance of the Master of Cere-
monies from Reinhardt's Fes-
tival Play was most unusual.
Wilckens' Revolt" proved a
powerful study. While the
Angel of Last Judgment" an
other WilckenS' etude, was most
impressive.
Georgi, beautiful to behold.
is not discredited by the lavish
praise awarded her partner.
She is a dancer of extreme
delicacy andd emotion, as the
moment demands. 1t is only
that Kreutzberg. in my mind,
surpaSseS all artists Of the hour
for power and fire.
The dainty one was at her
best in the "Kassandra" and a
Waltz" by Wilckens, and a
dance with no music, entitled
Spirit of Evil" It is when
Georgi has attained the as.
suredness of her partner, the
never faltering exhibition of al
most fantastical technique that
she will have attained the high
est perfection of her capabil-
tiles.
In duet numbers, the team
proved ever charming. ;Satie'S
Persian Song" and Wieniaw-
skis Russian Dance" will re-
main memorable moments for
those who attended the recital.
Friedrich Wilchens, who is
represented on the program by
six of his compositions, assisted
the youthful artists at the
piano.
