Attorney General Homer Cummings will soon announce plans for a nationwide cleanup of the legal profession. The tall, pleasant hammered Justice De- partment czar considers Bar As- sociations inffectual in such a job and proposes that the gov ernment undertake the house. cleaning Jimmy Riley, a senate doorkeeper, once ran as q republican candidate for con- gress in Milwaukee Demo- cratic Floor Leader Joe Robin son will always be hero to Senator Bennett Clark. Reason is that at the famous 1912 demo- cratic convention in Baltimore, the Arkansan held his states delegation in line up to the very last ballot for the late Speaker Champ Clark, Bennett's father. The explanation for Huey Longs projected political tour of California this summer is the fact that there arc more Share- thc-Wcalth clubs In that state than in any except Louisiana, Arkansas and Mississippi Tennessees massive -chested Sen- ator Nathan Bachnian never wears a vest, never uses any tie other than black bow which he tucks under the wings of his turn-down collar.

this week by Colonel "Bilp' Donovan. assistant attorney gen. eral in the Coolidge admlnistra- tion. Donovan defended the claim of the family of the late William Humphrey for $3,000 in salary from the government. Humphrey was busted by Roose- welt as a federal trade commits sioner. Donovan contended be- fore the court that if the presi- dents action was upheld it would mean the destruction of the non- partisan character of all the governments independent commissions.

The Washington times., 1935-05-06

Don QuiXote leaves the Dukes
court after a mock battle with
Carasco and realizes he has been
tricked, but is undaunted by the
raillery and jibes of the court
dandies.
The most poignant episode of
all, perhaps, is the last wherein
the gallant knight and scholar
sees his precious books being de-
stroyed by the state and, calling
Sancho to him confesses his
failure.
The rotund British comedian
George Robey plays the faithful
servant of Don Quixote and
while his extremely English in
Elections seem somewhat out of
place no fault can be found with
his handling of this important
part. Sidney Fox plays Maria,
Don Quixote's niece. Emily Fitz-
roy does a good job as Sancho's
Shrewish wife and Lydia Sher-
wood is excellent as the duchess.
Several interesting short sub
jects supplement the feature.
These include a travelogue of
picturesque Gibralter, showing
the British defenses of the i'm
pregnable fortress, a Terry Toon
cartoon and a botanical study.

AII-Star Bill at
Gayety

Broadway Babies" current at
traction at the Gayety Theater,
presents some of the outstanding
figures of burlesque.
Featured prime donna is the
beautiful Lillian Dixon. Guest
star is Nora Ford. the dynamic
Georgia flash. The comedians
include Clyde Bate and Jack
Hunt. What more could any
burlesque fan ask?
Lucille Wayne presents some
dancing of a high order of merit
and the voice of Fred Bishop is
heard to excellent advantage in
many numbers.
Miss Ford's opening number is
"Dinah" and she is heard again
in I'D Do Anything for YOU
Her power to make an audience
enthusiastic is again demon
strated.
Among other high ranking bur-
lesque names presented in this
star-studded bill are Lew Black,
Harry White, Margot Lopez,
Mary Weldon, Irene Ross and
Shirley Mac. All topnotch bur
lesque trouperS.
The show is staged we'll and
the dance routines are done with
good showmanship. The action
is keyed to a fast tempo through
out and there is not a dull mo-
ment in the production.
