Theatrical World--
Mime. Lehman'S Singing
Thrills City Audience
The Theatrical World
by WALTER d. HICKMAN
NINE. LOTTE lehman, famed

NINE. LOTTE LEHMAN, famed
4V1 singer, made her first recital
appearance in indianapolis last
night at Englishs. and the beauty
and quality Of her performance Will
linger long in the memories of her
audience.
Added to the artistry OF Nine.
Lehman was the work of Emo
Balogh, accompanist and composer,
whose fine sense of values and CO.
operation with the mood of the
singer helped make this concert a
masterpiece
The singer herself recognized this
fact and shared with Mr.. Balogh
all ovatioSs which she received
She included his DO Not Chide
Me" in her program.
Nine. Lehman is the most out
standing singer of German lieder
I have encountered on the concert
stage. She excels in diction, the
right shading and the meaning OF
the lyrics.
In English, every word is sung
clearly. This is lacking in so many
lieder singers. This applies to her
German, also.
In the Schubert group which
opened the concert, "Staendchen," a
lovers serenade, and "Ungeduld
were outstanding.
In the Schumann group, the
tremendous artistry and acting
ability of the singer were reflected
in AN den Sonnenschein" and
Itch grolle NIGHT
Here was mood singing, backed by
most intelligent Interpretation and
above all in perfect voice in all
registers.
The tuneful "Morgen," by Strauss,
put the singer into a serious mood.
The last number of the program
lifted the serious mood and that was
"zueignung" by Strauss. She gave
many encores.
Elias Prayer" from Wagner's
'Lohengrln" showed her supreme
mastery of opera. She Immediately
forgot heder and became the
tremendously powerful and always
sure singer Of operate roles This
was again revealed in an aria from
"Tosca."
Her lighter numbers, "A Children's
Song" and Good Night" contained
all the artistry of the heavier num-
bers.
This was magnificent concert
and tremendous finale for the
current successful season of Mrs.
Nancy Martens.

Adolf Kiefer
Sets J World
Swim Records
16-Year-0Id Back Stroke
Sensation to Appear
Here Friday.
BY STEVE SNYDER
United Press staff Correspondent

CHICAGO, March 5.-Adolph Kie-
fer, IS, the only human being ever
to swim 100 yards on his back in
less than a minute, broke couple
of worlds records yesterday just to
show his trainer he's about ready
for big time competition.
But Adolph's trainer, Big Stan
Brauninger, was convinced already
He could've broken any Of these
back stroke records a year ago,
Brauninger said. But I kept him
under wraps until he quit growing
so fast"
Kiefer, tall, solid youngSter with
an infectious smile, rose from the
pool and trotted toward Brauninger
He'd just slipped through so yards
of water in q seconds, one and one
tenth seconds faster than the APP
proved world mark. His breath was
even and he looked fresh enough
for a fast mile.
He always looked that way, Bral-
niger said, even when he climbed
from a crowded pool during On in
terScholastic meet last week after
winning the 100-yard back stroke
event in 1913 seconds-something
many experts had predicted never
would be accomplished.
Kiefer will appear in an exhibit
ton at Indianapolis Friday night.
He smiled in embarrassment and
said maybe" when Brauninger told
him he was in shape to take every
record up to 1000 yards.
Hes too modest, Brauninger
said. He doesn't know how fast
he really is. Why, every time he
steps into a pool he ties or betters
a world record without half trying. .

LLOYD HAMILTON,
COMEDIAN, DIES
Operation Proves Fatal to
Film Veteran, Who
Liked Solitude.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
HOLLYWOOD, Calf, January 49,
Alone, as in life, Lloyd Hamilton,
veteran comedian of the screen, died
suddenly last night after an operation
for a stomach disorder. He was 43.
Not only were scores of his friends
unaware Of his passing, but few had
even known that he was i'll. Always
a lonely, solitary figure in the movie
colony, Hamilton had practically
dropped from sight in the last few
months.
One of the most popular comedians
on the screen, Hamilton, like Charles
Chaplin, was a portrayer Of the "un-
derdog" in his film roles.
He was large, pudgy, baby-faced
He seldom smiled in his pictures, took
the role of the goat" and seemed to
prefer it in his life of screen. His
personal habits, his mode of living
and even the address of his home were
known to only very few persons.
Hamilton was born in Oakland
Calf. He left home when he was 1e
years old as member of stock COM
pany.
In 1914 he entered pictures and
quickly shot up to the top in comedy
After several years of inactivity he
recently made comeback" but
fell and broke a leg. Shortly after
leaving the hospital he fell and broke
the other leg.
Hamilton was married twice. His
first wife was known on the screen
as Ethel Floyd. They were divorced
in 1925. Two years later he married
Irene Dalton, who had been his lead
ing lady. They were divorced in less
than year.
