With the background of Paris. with
most of the plot revolving about a
couturieres salon and her Russian de-
signer and with one of the gowns
which leads in deciding the fate of the
hero being the center of much dia-
logue, it is natural that this Jerome
Kern Otto Harbach musical comedy,
Roberta" should be interesting to ell
those who know fashions.
To Kiviette goes the credit of Great
ing the costume effects, from the va
! f1ounced treatments of the organdie
evening frocks, of the opening scene at
fraternity dance, TO the brilliant
costume ensembles of spangled gowns
in Jewel colors, displayed with rhyth-
mic motion.
Throughout the production the cos
TUNES are varied and some of them so
spectacular that it is difficult to pick
those which bring response from the
audience, but fabrics and colors are
most interesting, selected for their
scenic value.
The Showing at Roberta's," with
| its manneQutn parade, gives center
stage to the fashion presentation
which introduces vivid contrasts, ar
resting cutout dresses, velvet slaSheo
at back, and one costume in which the
vivid fuchsia color Of the gown Is re-
peated in an ostrich boa draped from
the wide-brnnmed hat and over the
arm. A patterned taffeta blouse is
combined with gray velvet skirt and
a hsme-color brimmed hat, iridescent
feathers trim a dark green model and
a white brocade frock with sweeping
train has two dark foxes attached to
the hem. With the latter is worn the

Odette Myrtil, as Clementiha
Scharwenka, the star customer,
wears some brilliant musical comedy
costumes and tears one black frock
to tatters as q protest against its
hobble silhouette. Her opening cos
tune, is a red metal spotted crepe
with metal lace bodice, the full sleeves
and gold fringed sash of the jacket
giving 1t a dramatic silhouette. In
the bar scene she wears black
sheer, lustrous striped, with a very
full skirt and fiared jacket with loops
of the brilliant fabric on the shoulders.
Miss Gray's gown, to which the
young fiance of Sophie so bitterly
objects, is a white metal brocade eve
ming gown with a slim drape of the
fabric across the top of the naked
back and a very fared skirt. Another
is of chartreuse satin, the bodice cut
out at front as well as back, the slim
skirt nodded TO the knees where 1t
flares conSpicuously.
There are many other costume sig
nificances during the many scenes OF
this Offering. Fay Templeton, as old
Aunt Minnie, drspes her generous
figure in a black sheer with tintS Of
metal In its weave. Tamara, true to
her Russian heritage, wears In two
scenes a costume based on the Rus
sian blouse, one in white and one in
black. Miss Myrtil boasts another cos
tune, in which yellow crepe is
trimmed lavishly with red fox. This
! has a high stock collar with double
pleated jabot held by jeweled pin.
Color and glitter spread across the
stage and move to the rhythm of the

Plutarco Elias Gales, moved to bring

all archbishops and bishops.
The former President and supreme
chief" Of the revolution told deputies
and Senators who visited him at
Cuernavaca that Mexican Catholics
were planning a subversive movement,
but the government win know how TO
meet it."
A proposal by the Chamber of Depu-
ties for expulsion Of archbishopS and
bishops is still before the directors
of the national revolutionary govern
ment) party. Meanwhile, churches
have been closed in six states and
priests expelled from several Of them.

history as the death place of the En-
peror' Maximilian. The Archduke Of
Austria, who tried TO establish him
self in Mexico as the Napoleon of the
New World was executed June 10,

nORTER HALLS undergraduate
I career at the University of Gin
cinnati was scholaStically LETT
handed affair, successful enough but
conducted without the enthusiasm he
poured into his extra a-currlcular pas
time, the theater- native Of the
Ohio metropolis, Mr.. Hall (who, you
will remember, turned up as the sur
prise murderer in The Thin Man,
wrote sketches, staged them, acted,
and, in whatever time left over, played
the role of college student straight.
When he had finished at the uni
versity he satisfied the expectations
of his family H. casting aside thespian
tendencies and settling into harness
at a great yeast manufacturing plant
which has recently taken to sponsor
ing crooners and making gin. The
Yeast business, however, did not
exactly complete Mr.. Halls picture OF
the perfect life. He began working
around local little theaters again,
rehearsing at nights and working in
the day. He changed from yeast to
newspaper advertising, which like
wise could not displace grease paint
and fioodlights in the catalogue OF
his penchants.
Then came the break that started
the gentleman from Ohio on his way
to success as a comedian, film char
acter actor, to Mr.. George Kaufman
Bring On the Girls" which Is al
present holding forth down at the
National. Spotted while playing in
home town production, he was
given a chance to go on the road with
Robert Manteu, the great Shake
spearean actor. He almost jumped
out of his clothes grabbing the op-
portunity.
Followed years of work in stock,
minor parts on Broadway. He had
imagined himself something OF a
dramatic actor until he wandered
through the diverse roles of the rep
company.
,"I noticed my work in comedy roles
rsually clicked" he explains. Man
ayers told me I was best in that
field. They also remarked now and
then that as a Booth or Barrymore
I was not exactly a heavyweight.
Finally I decided maybe I was a
comedian"
He has concentrated on comedy
since the day of the great enlighten-
ment. Usually plays rather bewil-
dered and henpecked souls, fuddling
unhappily through a brutal world.
A clever Hollywood producer, noting
that the keynote of Mr.. Halls tech
nique Is ease and naturalisnl, per-
suaded him to come to Hollywood
for 1.-The Thin Man" role. He was
not well known to the movie public
at that time, could therefore be fitted
into the Villains part without arous-
ing any precipitate suspicious. Says
he liked the cinema work, probably
will 60 back for more, as the word
has been spread that M-G-Ms mild
hammered menace is also a comic.
Broadway, which has known him for
years, would have written it the other
way around. S. B. p, Jr.

has gone beyond what was then
deemed necessary. Amy course not
considered to be completely co-opera-
tive would have been misinterpreted
as hostility to the New Deal, and
members of that group accordingly
have individually followed along with
the administration, and any efforts to
amend or expand specific bills in scope
have been taken individually and not
by them as an organization.
Now, however, there is evidence
that the President is under tremen-
dous pressure from his more cOnserv-
ative and more powerfully organized
advisors, within his party Organiza-
ton as we'll as outside of it, to reduce
the program for the balance of the
session to an absolute minimum, and
get Congress out of the city for good
That will mean, if carried out, that
the Seventy-third Congress officially
ends, inasmuch as under the latest
amendment to the Constitution there
are no more lame duck sessions fol-
lowing the general elections. That is

dent does not call them together again

1t will also mean that a number Of
bills will be thrown in the legislative
dump heap in spite Of earlier sympa-
thetic interest on the part of the adj
ministration. This fact is especially
anger-prOvOking to Senate Progress
sives who have fought their pet meas
ures through preliminary stages and
who have foreseen victory if the party
leaders in control, both in Congress
and at the White House, would stay
here to see the program through.
Bills. for instance, such as measure
to pay off the depositors in closed
banks, are not considered vital ac-
cording to the Presidents announce
ment. That measure was considered
at length in these columns last week.
so the writer will merely add now that
despite the frown of leaders, prOpon-
ents of the measure may force it TO
vote regardless. Recognizing the
strength of the support for the bill,
leaders may permit vote in time for

literally, thereby taking this most
important power away from the finan-
cial centers with private control and
for private profit, is disregarded.
Other measures liberal in their ma
ture, face a similar fate.
Therefore, efforts are now being
made to revive the activity of an or
ganized Progressive fighting unit in
the House, avowedly friendly to the
administration in its purpose, but
based on the belief that the Chief is
being Overpowered by advisors who
have the inside track, and on the
conviction that unless the New Deal
can continue to carry out the policies
thus far adopted, recovery will bog
down and possible disaster will follow
To that end, definite coordination
between the Senate and House Pro-
gressives will be arranged, in an eff
fort to keep Congress in session until
some of these measures have beer
considered. And one of them, previ.
ously mentioned, which must not be
forgotten, is the appropriation for pub.
