must be kept functioning on larg-
err scale. Ushers will be needed and
assistants for the production of chill
drens plays. All this work must
be done and more. An organization
of workers is needed so that they
will keep in closer touch with each
other and with the needs Of the
Civic Theater so that they can as
sist the director and the board OF
directors in their work.
"This must be an organization on
which the board of directors and
the director can absolutely depend
at all times.
Mr.. Somnes has repeatedly stated
that the success of plays depends as
much on the internal organization
as upon good actors, good directing
and good equipment"

Regarding the coming season"
George Bailey, financial chairman
of the building fund committee Of
Civic theater, said eve shall extend
our season from six months to nine
months, producing at least nine
plays. We shall have an enlarged
childrens' program. Gladys Somnes
on his present trip, is spending time
in New York formulating plans for
the coming season and fighting for
more reasonable royalties in the
most desirable plays.
"Our enlarged stage, modern
dressing rooms, more ample electri-
cal and other equipment, will enable
us to give a greater variety of plays,
appealing to more different tastes
and therefore a larger audience.
Since our organization has more
money available, we are able to pay
higher royalties demanded for the
more desirable and latest plays.
| "Mr. FurScott told me today that
he has just signed contract to en-
large our stage, provide f1reproof
back stage and adequate dressing
rooms and more commodious work.
ing space for those working on
scenery, costumes, etc. The contract
includes redecorating the lobby and
plastering the walls Of the audi
forum and the ceiling hiding the
steel beams. Also the ladies room
will be redecorated and equipped.

building will be repaired so that
those attending will not have to

curtain will be provided.

greatest civic theaters in this coun-
try?
Mr.. Somnes has suggested and
the board of directors has approved
a plan for the organization of an
actors and workers guild of the
civic theater. Our larger member
ship, which has grown more than
1000 members since our recent cam
paign, makes it necessary that we
have an organization within an
organization. or in other words, a
group of people who are more than
merely members of the civic theater.
THE Actors and Workers Guild
should be actually people who are
willing to work and produce, not
simply spectators. There is a great
deal to be done by this proposed
Actors and Workers Guild. OF course
we must have actors. we must look
after costumes, people to design
and paint scenery and others to pro-
cure properties.

D. D. Murphy Shows Offer
Many Novel Events
Here.

THE D. D. Murphy Shows, which
i will furnish the midway attrsc-
tons and features for the Indiana
State fair this year, has had a mes
teoric success.
Building a tent show of vast size
from practically nothing is the task
the Murphy management has acc
complished.
Ten years ago David D. Murphy
and L. NJ. Brophy bought a. merry
go-round and placed it in an amuse-
ment park in st. Louis, their home
town. It was merely in the nature
of side issue" as neither was a
practical road Snowman. 1t made
money. The following year they
bought a ride known as "Over-the~
Jumps" It was equally successful.
Then the D. D. Murphy ShoW was
born. 1t started out in 1921 As a
fcur-box car outfit. with three rides,
two tiny shows and dozen legitt-
mate concessions. In 1924 it was a.
ffteen-car railroad show with five
riding devices and its own specially
constructed train. Today it requires
forty extra IengJn circus cars 90
transport the organization.
There are twenty-One paid shows
on the midway. fourteen major rid
ing devices. four laughable 'fun~
houses" and a military band. In al"
dition. the show carries a trio OF
"kiddie" rides for the special pleasure
of the little tots. There are 635 PEG"
pie on the company's pay roll.
The comnissary department serves
an average of 1000 meals and
lunches daily.
The D. D. Murphy Shows had an
initial slogan, Cleanliness and Now
city" To it they have strictly adj
hered and their growth and success
is the result.
