March of Farmers To
CAPITAL Is Boomerang

When several thousand farmers
from various parts of the country
moved on the Capitol recently to
urge enactment by Congress of more
dictatorial powers for the AAA, Con-
gress Immediately gave heed and
received the delegates.
However. before the thousands
moved away the truth had leaked
out. County agents and crop con-
troll officials had pulled a novel
stunt. It developed that they had
stimulated the march by spreading
the reports in rural districts that
unless the amendments to the AAA
were passed, loans to farmers would
end.
Many members of Congress ex-
ploded at the idea of paid govern
ment workers organizing march to
ooerce them into enacting legisla-
tion which such Senators as Byrd Of
virginia, George Of Georgia, and
others are opposing as detrimental
TO the farmers interests.

DRAMA GHOSTS
PORTRAYEDBY
STAR OF TODAY
Dorothy Sands, Alone on
National Stage, Cires
Drama Pictures.

Ghosts entered the National Thea
ter last night. Ghosts of bygone days
of the American theater, brought in
by Dorothy Sands. whose monodra-
matte sequences from selected plays
of the past provide as entertaining
history of American drama as you
could find.
Miss Sands keen humor. her mar
velous mimicry and her lyrical voice
make each of her sketches an adven-
ture to be remembered; even the short
talks with which she introduces each
character become charming inter-
ludes.
Miss Sands opens her program,
"Our Stage and Stars" with picture
of 1.-The first American f1apper." as
she calls one of the characters in the
first truly American comedy, THE
Contrast" by Royal Tyler, which
was presented for the first time back
in 1887, and ends It with a grand car
feature of Mae West, which really is
no destination for nearly $50 years of
dramatic history, unless you happen
to be on the Hollywood side of the
fence.
After this first flapper," who is
interpreted we'll, whether she is in
terpreted as she was back in 1887
or not, Miss Sands brings in some
grand burleSque when she takes up
the protean art and plays. all in the
same scene and without the help of
mirrors or other devices of magic, the
heroine who erred but once, the right
eous hero and the mustachioed VIII
lain of "Adelgitha, or the Fruits OF
Single Error" which very tragic
piece is used to illustrate the frontier
theater of 1920 In those early days
of the road the only players who
could be recruited to enter the wilds
of Ohio had little knowledge and no
experience, and Miss Sands has a
high good time showing how they
must have appeared.
Her vivacious and hoydenish Lola
Crabtree is another favorite. The
romantic 70s slipped over to
| 1901 to give last nights audience at
| the National more pleasure with this
delightful artists Interpretation of
Ethel Barrymore in Capt. Jinks of
the Horse Marines" wherein Miss
Barrymore made her debut. AS the
never-to be- forgotten Lillian Russell,
on her debut at Tony Pastors, Miss
Sands gay singing of those ditties
about the father who turned the pic
ture to the wall and the lady who
said, "Take back your gold" were so
appreciated that encores were called
for.
Miss Sands takes up tragedy with
| the twentieth century, when realism
entered the theater, in her excellent
characterization of the heroine of
1.-THE Easiest Way" The trio Of
movie stars conclude the program,
the Misses Greta Garb0, Theda Bara
and Mae West being submitted to
Miss Sands keen satire for three un-
surpassed caricatures. Theda Bara,
particularly, is superb. H. M.

After many recalls Mr.. Elman sue
ceeded in bringing DR.. Kinder to the
platform, and together they urged the
members OF the orchestra to rise and
acknowledge their share OF the
plaudits. Mr.. Elman played the
famous Tschaikowski concerto with
apparent ease and personal pleasure,
dashing of the brilliant cadenzas,
trills and arpeggios as easily as he
played the intricate double stops,
thirds, sixths and octaves. In the
last movement, which followed the
second without pause, his harmonlcs
were perfect in intonation and rich
and warm in tone. The breadth and
beauty Of Interpretation was that OF
the maturity and artistry OF a bril-
liant virtuoso.
The orchestra, which DIR. Kinder
has nodded and developed into an
organization of which any community
should be justly proud, played three
numbers in the first part of the pro-
gram, the colorful introduction to the
first and fourth acts of Moussorgsky's
"Khovanstchina" the six episodes Of
Smetanas symphonic poem. THE
Moldau," played without pause, and
two Slavonic dances by Dvorak. The
orchestra played with its customary
precision and marked rhythm, DR..
Kinder developing exquisite shading
and finish in the spiritual significance
of phrases and themes of this particu-
larly artistic and colorful work. The
delicacy of the Moonlight Castle
Ruins" was given with as marked a
degree of descriptive fineSse as was
the st. Johns Cascades"
In the Slavonic dances the orches-
ira did particularly good ensemble
work. DR.. Kinder was recalled many
times after the dances, and no amount
of acknowledgment of the applause
on his part was satisfactory to the
emotionally enthusiastic audience un-
I'll he repeated the second dance, a
fascinating composition Of rhythmic
and thematic beauty.
The accompaniment for Mr. Elman
was another of the typical accom-
plishments Of the National Symphony
Orchestra. 1t gave ample support,
never overbalancing the solo part.
Following the concert, Olga SAM
aroff. who was a guest Of Mr.. and
Mrs. Walter Bruce Howe at the con-
cert and in their home afterward,
was enthusiastic about the work of
the organization and urged the car
rying on in the foundation of a per-
manent orchestra in the National
Capital. She told a number of in
tereSting stories about the establish
ment of the now famous Philadelphia
Symphony Orchestra.
The National Symphony Associa-
tion will open its drive for $4,000
March Is. This amount, together
with the increasing boX-office receipts
will enable the organization to pay
the members of the orchestra a liv-
ing compensation on a weekly basis

"BABY VAMPS" NEED
SERIOUS REHEARSING
But Perhaps the First Show at
at Gayety Yesterday Was
q Rehearsal.

Ho hum! That's just the way Baby
Vamps," or whatever the name of the
current Gayety attraction is, would
have affected you yesterday afternoon.
BY today, Of course, 1t possibly Is run
ming along its course in a much
smoother manner. BY today the spot
light operator and others Of the gentry
behind the scenes probably have their
cues so they function on time. BY to-
day the orchestra probably has "Object
of My Affections" ready'when the pro-
gram calls for a chorus of girls dane
ing to "Object of My Affections"
But Sunday afternoons perform
ance at the Gayety often takes on
much the same aspect as a final dress
rehearsal, what with Jimmie Lake re-
arranging the show, removing parts
you wouldn't like, and inserting parts
you will.
There are four specially artists, each
and every one having way with the
customers; couple of passable comics,
and a more than passable tenor. The
girls who will regale you with their
charms are Maxine De Shone, tall,
graceful and near the top of the bur-
iesque beauty list, who is very much
Of an attraction as the "extra-added-
attraction; Joan Collette, who knows
more tricks In the art Of selling her
act to the audience than any girl on
this or any other burlesque circuit:
Tangera, tall. brunette and admired
by the gentlemen out front, and Char
by Bonneau, who dances and who is
the only one Of the four who does not
belle the baby" in Baby Vamps" !"
Nate Busby, in black-face, heads the
list of comics with some hilarious
clowning. Billy Wallace and Billy
Lee are the other buffoons, with Char
lie Schultz and Frank Scannell taking
the straight roles. Fred Bishop is the
tenor who is more than passable-
much more. H. M.

For the tour seasons which this splen-
did organization has given to the
National Capital a wealth Of enjoy
ment, these men of the orchestra have
given of their best for pay only for
the rehearsals and actual concerts pre-
sented. If the orchestra is to con-
tinue. there must be sufficient sup
port to guarantee them living wage
in return for their contribution to
the national as well as local cultural
and spiritual influence which their
work adds to the well being Of man
kind. That there are increasing box
office receipts is an indication of the
popularity of the orchestra, but more
significant and far more gratifying is
the fact that while in the first sea-
son of the orchestra there were only
80 subscribers for the children's con-
certs, this year the auditorium of Gen.
tral High School. seating 1000 per-
sons, has been filled for each one Of
the children's concerts. K. B.
