John RUSKIN'S story of "The King

by Clare Three Major, was given Sat-
urday at the National Theater by the
New York Children's Theater. under
the direction of Miss Major. who also
conducts this organization for the en-
tertainment of children.
1t was the last regular performance
of the season, although it was an
nounced that on May 26 the Wash
ington Community Players will pre-
sent Stevenson's Treasure Island" at
the National.
Children, who made up the greater
part of the large audience, found the
production very attractive, one of the
best of the season, and gave generous
applause 10 the actors, especially to
Gene Magnus as Gluck, Herbert Rud-
ley as SwartZ, Madeleine Fales as
Freya. George Thornton as the King
and George Hare as Colby.

piece, to protect the good characters.

Imagination of the young auditors,
and the surprise at the end, when
the gold" that had been promised for
the faithful performance of duty,
turned out to be the creation of a
beautiful valley through brilliant ac-
ton of the sun, was especially fine
to the minds of the young members
of the audience. who had found the
suspense a real preliminary to the
big development.
The results gave force to the con-
clusion of a season that has been
notably successful.

Farmer Paris admitted that the separated

Evening star., 1934-04-30

Just about this time Constance Ben
nett and Henri de la Falaise met,
and Gloria was weakening In her pre-
occupation with the French aristoc-
racy in favor of the aristocracy Of
charm and brains. The Swanson pic
ture ventures were not so hot at this
time, although Gloria always has had
that certain something" for the au-
dience.
Two children were now at school in
Switzerland and coming home from
time to time to wreck the hearts of
the small boys Of Beverly Hills.
Then, into the headlines swan the
linked names of Michael Farmer,
sportsman, and Gloria Swanson. Far
mer had been reported engaged to
Marilyn Miller, but one morning the
world awoke to the fact that Gloria
had married him in the East before
the interlocutory decree from La
Falaise had run its California year.
The marriage was performed under
the aegis of Dudley Field Malone,
Gloria's attorney, and there were no
legal complications. There was, how
ever, another marriage, according to
California law.
Young Bridegroom Michael was
borne abroad and Gloria made a pic
ture on the French Riviera with
Farmer as co-star, but in which he
proved more of sportsman than a
leading man. Anyhow, the picture
didn't do for Gloria what it was sup
posed to do. Finances were once more
not what they used to be, and the
Farmers came to Hollywood to live
while Gloria resumed her picture
career.
The couple spent much time in their
cabana at one of the most exclusive
seaside clubs where an interminable
game OF double solitaire seemed to be
their only diversion. They seldom
talked and appeared pretty bored to
the casual observer, although young
Farmer bestirred himself and was
quite the courtly lad with the ladies
when friend wife was not present.
Soon, all Hollywood that has eyes to
see and ears to hear knew this fourth
marriage was flop.
Gloria talked contract with one big
producer after another. And she began
taking the lead role in one of the most
astounding Hollywood triangles which
electrified the professional colony and
routed the British contingent. Gossip
says Gloria has her heart set on the
fifth husband, but the gentleman's
wife will have to cooperate and some
legal barriers will have to be swept
away. 1t must be that certain some
thing" operating again.

COMEDIANS ARE BIG
PART OF GAYETY SHOW

There are a couple of very funny
fellows down at the Gayety this week.
These two are known as Lou Costello
and Frank X Silk, and it is a very
lucky thing they are present, for If
they were not, there wouldn't be any
too much in the way of better bur-
lesque entertainment.
Lou is one burlesque comedian who
does not have to don some outlandish
garb, make himself a putty nose and
black out half his teeth to get his
laughs. Working with one of the best
straight men in the business, Russell
Trent, Lou makes every moment he is
on the stage hilarious one for the
onlookers. They are a great team
Their suffering scene alone is worth
the price Of admission. This Frank
K. Silk. too, is a clown of no mean
ability and is responsible for much
OF the merriment. Lew Denny and
Billy Wallace, capable veterans both,
complete the comedy cast. and the
laugh interludes gain by their pres
ence.
The show, titled "Topsy-Turvy
Girls" must gain its name from the
topsy- -turvy fact that there is a pair
of young ladies in the chorus who
could stand being out there alone in
an amber spot while some of the
principals might, in this commen-
tator's humble opinion, just as well be
in the back row. Ann (Mrs. Lou)
Costello is one of the two. She has
grand specially number, and later
teams up with Carolyn Fieze, another
girl from the chorus, for a fast and
furious duo tap dance. Lillian Harrison
and Dorothy Ahearn are two of the
featured girls whose offerings are par
ticularly pleasing. Bee Baxter, tosser
of the torch song, is another per-
former well liked by the paying guests.
The chorus is smooth and especially
effective in the Holiday" ballet in the
second act.
-Topsy-Turvy Girls is good in
spots and dull in others, but all things
considered, burlesque fans will no
doubt find it well worth while.

TED SHAWN
and DANCERS
GIVE RECITAL
Movements Usedm Man.
uaI Labor Become Sub.
ject Matter for Dance.
BY ALICE EvERSMAN.

Ted Shawn and an ensemble of six
dancers, Barton Mumaw, Frank Over
less, Wilbur Mccormack, Dennis
Landers, Fred Hearn and George
Horn, appeared at the Belasco Thea
ter last evening in a dance recital for
the benefit of the Ten O'Clock Club,
a club devoted to fostering the arts.
The ensemble Of male dancers is an
outgrowth of an ambition OF Mr..
Shawns to elevate the dance art for
men and to bring into their presenta-
ton an appropriate virile character.
To accomplish this end he has made
a thorough study of the movements
used in manual work and fashioned
his dance patterns after this idea.
What Mr.. Shawn set out to do he
has accomplished, and last evenings
performance was a revelation OF how
well vigorous masculinity and aes-
thetic art can be combined All the
dancers lend themselves to picturesque
plastic poses and are light and swift
in individual and concerted studies.
One of their achievements is the alb
solute precision of movement and
grace of line that retains always the
right balance of force and beauty.
There is a clearness of mental picture
back of their interpretations and a
whole-hearted immersion in their
work that adds conviction to their
presentation. From the technical and
interpretive viewpoint, yesterdays
performance was one that first inter-
ested and then won completely an
audience
The program was a varied one and
ranged from an attempt at musical
Installation to an Interpretation of
Negro spirituals For the first, Nc
Dowell's "PolonaiSe" and Bach's wi
Prelude" and 1.-TWO Part Invention,
No. T." were chosen, but the result
lacked a broadness and finesse of
vision that gave character to the en-
semble numbers, workers Songs of
Middle Europe" the amusing Jap
anese Rickshaw Coolies" which had
to be repeated; "Osage-Pawnee Dance
of Greeting" Cutting of the Sugar
Cane" and the group of religious
dances. In the latter, especially, the
dancers showed exalted feeling and
fine inspiration of mood.
Ted Shawn included his two famous
interpretations, Invocation to the
Thunderbird, and "a Study of ST.
Francis of Assist" in his solo num-
bers. An interpretive number, John
Brown Sees the Glory written by
the accompanist, Jesse Meeker, was
a powerful picture of the mission OF
John Brown, pantomimed with deep
feeling by Mr.. Shawn. A Spanish
dance, Flamenco" excellently done,
brought several encores of the same
character. Mr.. Shawn, not quite so
pliable technically as his students,
nevertheless demonstrated rich fund
of ideas and a poetic outlook in all
the numbers of the program, entirely
created by him, that should act force
fully to widen the possibilities OF
the dance.
Two solo dances, THE French
Sailor" and Fetish" by Barton
Mumaw, brought enthusiastic acclaim
to the young dancer of decided talent,
and a short dance, Turkey in the
Straw" by Wilbur Mccormack, show
ed another promising artist already
we'll equipped technically. Mr.. Meeker,
who supplied all the accompaniments,
has aided Mr.. Shawn in his creative
ideas by providing fine musical set
tings to several of the dances.

Morgan Farley seems, however, to
have won out.
HERE is something typical of Helen
HayeS-one of the theater'S
most gracious citizens and a player
who never forgets her old home
town:
II have read in the New York papers
that you are opening your tenth
season of the National Players.
For once. I am going to obey that
impulse and send you my congratula-
tions and very best wishes in the
face of all the adverse conditions of
the past year.
"You are indeed to be congratulated
on your success in your gallant effort
to carry on the tradition of the stage
I hope you are rewarded with packed
houses.
Sincerely,
HELEN HAYES"
If that doesn't spur on Ruth Abbott,

the National Players tonight, we
don't know what will. Here's put
ting in our small wish for a success

tinguished Miss Hayes.
DANIEL F2OHMAN will be in town

Actors Fund Benefit Offices in the
Munsey Building from on. Won't
all those people who want to get in
to that benefit at the Belasco get
in touch with him there. From the
number of phone calls about the af-
fair, there must be 999 people about
town who are anxious to reveal their
talents along with Elsie Ferguson,
Frances Starr. Otis Skinner, Gladys
Cooper, Philip Merivales and the

quill a NcoC 10 AiALAoOA dOSo al viva
Villa" the new Pancho Villa film
which is based on fact and "romanti-
cized" with fiction. 1t is thunder
ing good film, full of blood and hefty
finaglings and ending up with what
seems to be both the timely and the
untimely death of its hero.
We can't, however, see why daugh-
ter, Celia Villa, who came to town
yesterday, fresh from a Juarez night
club, should enjoy seeing Wallace
Beery romping around as her late
lamented pappy. Still, from what we
could gather last night at the screen
ing, she got along very we'll and rose
up fresh and smiling at the end of
the thing.
Since daughter Villa is going about
the country with this film, M-G-M
doesn't have to worry. If they had
gotten a member of RuSsia'S royal
family to do the same thing for "Ras-
putin" they might have avoided law
suit. Miss Villa says: "He was good
man, my father; very good man.
And while you can't always believe
that as you watch Mr.. Beery, still
as long as his daughter has faith in
her father and in the film, viva
Villa" should have long and prosper
Gus life, with no member of the Villa
family rising up and screaming,
''Slander!'

CTRANGE, what publicity can do

Villa-one day a modest young thing,
dishing out checks in coat room in
Juarez-and the next being wined
and dined by expensive executives
who exhibit her round about as
though she was prize baby. Maybe
she was. At any rate, for being the
daughter of a popular fighting man.
Miss Villa gets a nice little trip
around the country; a screen test
(although she can't speak word of
English) and a chance to see her
fathers film in almost every city of
the East.

|SHUCCU AND ULlN
 | NEXT ATTRACTION | AT NEW HAVEN

New Haven, March S-Topy Shucco, of Boston, New England light heavyweight champion, and Bob Olin, of New York, have been signed for a ten-round star bout at the Arena here on Friday night, March IS. Matchmaker Al Caroly, whose efforts have resulted in re- viving the boxing game in New Ha- ven, anticipates another large crowd for the bout.
 Shucco, Boston Italian, and Olin, Gotham Hebrew, put on a slashing fight last summer, Tony getting the official nod but the fans favoring the Jewish fighter, especially after his fifth-round knockdown of Shuc- co.
 Olin has a couple of wins over Al Gainer, hard-hitting New Ha- ven Negro, while Shucco won his New England light heavyweight title in 12-round bout with Gain CT here recently. Shucco has host of followers around the state and Olin is also well and favorably known on the result of his battles with Gainer in Waterbury and New Haven.
