BILL POINTS TO
ALL-REPUbLICAN
CITY COUNCIL
Minority Would Have No
Chance Under Clancy
/ Measure.

There will be no Democrats in
the Indianapolis city council, if ma
5ority party voting continues as at
present and city manager govern
ment becomes taboo, should the bill
introduced in the senate Wednesday
by Senator Sumner Clancy, Indian
apolis, become law. The law now
provides that no party may have
more than six of the nine council
men.
Clancy took offense at linking the
attempts to thwart cities from
adopting the city manager form
with his new mayor and alder
manic plan bill.
He admitted, however, that he is
opposed to allowing cities optional
forms of government and indicated
that he will muster all the support
he can for the Sims bill, which will
prohibit cities from adopting the
city manager form. The bill, intro
duced in the senate by Senator
George w. Sims, Terre Haute, pro-
vides for absolute repeal of all city
manager laws.
Indianapolis now has one of the
firest federal system charters in the
United States" Clancy said.
1T has been adopted by Boston
and other cities because Of its per-
lection. My bill merely co-ordi-
mates the government and fixes
party responsibility
BY this the author of the bill
meant that minority party is I'M
likely to be represented in the coun-
Gil. 1t provides for nine aldermen,
six to be selected as candidates
from the present six aldermanic
districts and three to be elected
from the city at large.
Not more than nine from any
party can be selected in the pri-
highest vote in the general election
then form the council.
The bill also provides salary boosts
for the mayor, city attorney, corpo-
ration counsel and superintendent
of police. 1t gives the councilmen
$4,000 year. They now get Only
$500.
'Under the Indiana constitution
the cities receive their grants of
power from the state and it is up
to the Legislature TO enact laws pro-
viding for their government" Clancy
continued.
The senator stated that he felt the
huge vote for city manager govern
ment here was mo mandate" on
him. He asserted that he felt the
election never should nave been held
when it was well known that the law
was being tested in the supreme
court for its constiutionality.

Our cheating heroine in Gypsy"
the play who has Ellen as the chief
character, turns on the gas and
passes on. The heroine and the
leading male in Dynamo" meet
death in the last few minutes of
the play and the young scientist in
wings Over Europe" is shot down
by IN English cabinet member in
full sight of the audience just be-
fore the final curtain.
It seems that the playwrights of
at least three plays have put their
fingers up to their noses in a polite
gesture against the sobby, happy
Pollyanna ending that has no bear
ing to the play.
for one have never considered
audiences to be boobs and I never
will. I think the boobs often have
been the writer's and the producers
who thought that play, regardless
of whether it was consistent or not,
should have happy ending.
In Gypsy" the new Richard
Herndon offering that features
claiborne Foster, last seen in '"The
Patsy" in Indianapolis at English's,
the characters are not the sweet
Sunday school going type.
AS the curtain goes up, Ellen,
who is married to David, is doing a
kissing matinee with Cleve, one of
those author guys who seems to feel
at home with the wives of other
men in his arms.
Ellen is a liar and cheat. She
wants to do right but she seems to
have inherited the liar trait from
her mother who has not been too
careful with her male associates
while married.
Ellen has a peach of husband
and he swallows her story line, hook
and sinker Ellen has an easy go at
her love affairs because David plays
in a movie orchestra, and of course
is not home much.
He loves Ellen even too honestly.
When he should have been wise his
fear that he might lose her makes
a boob of hira.
Now Ellen'S mama is a modern
knockout. Men are men to her, all
of 'en and she seems to want 'em
all. Ellen "hates" her mother and
tells her why. Then mama speaks
up and tells Ellen thateshe is a liar
and a sex cheat just as she is.
Mama is wise enough to know that
the whole business only ends in mis-
cry and even death. But Ellen just
can't stay straight even when she
wants to even for the noble purpose
of trying not to make David I'M
happy.
She finally kicks over the domes-
tic traces, leaves David fiat and
takes up her abode in a little
squalid room. Of course, Cleve, the
boy friend is hanging about. He
has his own key to her room but
he is beginning to become fed up
on his little Ellen.
Then the ending-Cleve leaves her
fiat when she starts to two-time
him. Then word that her own
mama had turned on the gas in
Canada, thus ending her adventure
with another man. Ellen is done
with telling lies. The only way to
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1929-02-21

guarantee her future against lies
is turn on the gas just like mama.
And she does right in front of the
audience.
Miss Foster has shown big growth
in the art of characterization She
puts none of the Polyanna traits
into her conception of Ellen. Miss
Foster is acting now because she is
broadening her scope of acting. And
I for one do not fear that she will
hold onto her young stage follow
ing IN such death roles just as she
did in t"The Patsy" type of play.
I think that Gypsy" is sincere
