The Once Over
WONDERS WILL NEVER CEASE

The day is near when the radio addict can sit at
his radio and see Amos n Andy. Television is max
ing rapid progress. It Is only a question Of time be-
fore every radio owner In the country will be able TO
decide whether he likes Graham McNamee's face. tel

self whether "Roxy's' newspaper photographs have
flattered him.
The other day a complete vaudeville show was
transmitted by television, all the actors bsing thrown
on the screen life-size. And none Of them were
Singer midgets.
Nothing has caused such q sensation in the amuse-
nlent world since the first moving pictures. The old
time theater magnates now realize more than ever
that the show business Of America is becoming simply
a branch Of the electric industry.
It is entirely possible that the theater of the fu-
ture will have no seats. 1t will simply wire the show
to the subscribers. If the show is a big hit the specu-
Iators Will buy up the electricity six weeks IN advance.
Vaudeville performers are particularly cordial to the
television stunt. Vaudeville is in such a bad way in
this country today that it is doubtful whether even
electricity can revive it.
The audience who saw the vaudevilians by tele-
vision last week registered no protest, but 1t must be
remembered that the bill included no animal acts,
twin-sister crooners or ventrnoquists.
And there we're no magicians on it, either. Showing
that the General Electric company knows where TO
stop.
once some Of these old-time vaudeville acts are put
on the television programs the public will figure out
a way to broadcast a tomato.
While the possibilities OF television in the theater
are great, the ultimate target is the great American
home and many a radio entertainer who is no treat
to the eye is dreading the day when it is perfected.
They know very well that a public, which has been
sold" on a radio performers voice, may not like his
face al all.
Ultimately television will bring pictures along the
radio description Of the worlds series, the Yale foot
ball game and the Kentucky Derby. Home, it is OBJ
vious, will eventually become the last place to go If
you want rest and quiet.

New York's Foreign-Language

NEW YORK. June New York's
picturesque foreign colonies no
longer lag behind the parade Of
modern innovation.
Whether fashion, science or Gus
tom be involved, the process OF
Americanization has reached that
point where one can expect the
second and third generation to be
right on its toes. ready to adapt
each new idea to its particular
section OF population.
There is, for instance, a talking
picture concern which is turning
out films in Yiddish only and thus
appealing TO that vast audience
which can be drawn from the East
Side. 1t is called Judea films and
early June will see il operating
three New York theatres where
only Yiddish language films will
be shown. a national chain Of such
theatres will soon span the nation,

For generations the Yiddish
theatres on the East Side and I'D
in the Bronx have been among
Manhattan's most interesting play
houses. Here. some highly original
experiments have been made, thea
ter are movements have started
and modernistic stage decorations
have set styles which Broadway
later adopted.
In the days Of silent films one
could find on Second avenue a
dozen picture houses where the
subtitles we're in Hebrew, Italian or
some other tongue.
There are still thousands of
patriarchal old fellows who have
failed to acquire more than a work

want to see and hear the words Of
their mother country.
