Both have done the same routines
at the Capitol Theater here many
times, but never before a capacity
audience SO eager for fun as the
Center Theater Saturday night
throng. They vowed 'em. as it
were.
Kitty Carlisle, fresh from the
Kleig lights of Paramount, is the
prima donna lead, revealing a tai
ent I never even suspected she
possessed, proving to me that her
forte is the stage rather than the
screen. Robert Halliday is the
other half of the lyrical love in
terest and serves satisfactorily.
Here then is the Rockefeller sue
cessor to Max Gordon's 1.-THE Great
Waltz" earlier tenant of the Cen

It has nothing to match the per-
forming scenery of the Strauss op-
eretta but it does have revolving
stages, a rain storm, a Side-Wheeler
boat, hundreds of costumes with
all the colorS Of JoSeph's coat, a
quartette of cows and a bovine that
toe dances, some gorgeous revolv-
ing scenery and fair music. And it
has a lobby that has been trans
formed into department store an
mex for the display of Tyrolean
knickknacks and clothes.
Would that I could yodel more
SWeetly about it.

Shippers have gone out on Lake

stiff with cold. The batteries in
their suits have frozen after few
turns around the course markers.
And you'll take an awful bang
ing. No little dinghy in a rough
sea ever swerved and bobbed and
banged as does a racing iceboat
when she's hitting it up on a
WindWard jib. There's no knee ac-
ton TO cushion the bumps, only
the sparse give Of the wood Of the
hull itself. The big steel runners
on the side-they're nothing more
than nine feet long hockey skates
cut into the ice and throw jag
ged chips of it in your face. A
racing skipper, after a 20-mile duel,
comes out of the cockpit looking
like a halfback after sixty minutes
of a Homecoming game, with
bruises from top to bottom.
Occasionally racing Shippers don't
come back at all, for ITO miles an
hour is an awfully fast speed at
which to be thrown, and glare ice

They do say ice boating is a fine

get pneumonia and rigor mortis in

happy race, and don't seem to wor-

The owner was perfectly willing
to take me for ? blaze across Lake
Mendoza, but temperature of 85,
an absence Of ice, dead calm, and
the fact that his boat was dis
mantled and stored in a barn 20
miles east of Madison, made the
trip impracticable.
So I did the next best thing. and
talked with Fritz Jungbluth of the
sport. In IS minutes, so vivid was
his description Of skimming across

mahogany and redwood beneath

of sail above you grabbing the pow

and shivered; in 20 minutes I had
my coat collar yanked up, my
hands dug deep in my pockets to
ward of frostbite, and was looking
about for a log fire.
The iceboat of which Jungbluth
talked was his own beloved Fritz.
A streamlined creation, which,
flying the Burgee OF the -Four Lakes
Ice Yacht Club, owns the national
championship. Today the Fritz,
designed and built by Jungbluth
and Frank Tetzlaff, Madison car
penter, holds, and challenges any

The announcer gave as an eX-

Perales holds a title and he prob
