Anxiety over four missing Wash

Charge of Assault On
LandIady Is NoIIe
Pressed

An assault charge, pending In
Police Court since last Decoration
Day, against the late Representa-
tive Marion A. zioncheck Cd, Of
Seattle, Wash, was finally dis
posed of today when Assistant
United States Attorney Arthur B.
Caldwell nolle pressed the case
"by reason of death of the de-
fendant."
The charge, which was lodged
against the late legislator by his
landlady, Mrs. PAMELA S. Young,
accused Zioncheck of aSsaulting
her in her Harvard Hall apart
ment during the series of SEN
Sational escapades which immedi-
ately preceded his death by suicide
last August in Seattle.
Twenty-Five dollars posted by
Zioncheck for his appearance here
was turned over to his widow, the
former Rubye Nix.
Today's action was prompted by
the receipt here of death certiti-
cate from Seattle, in which Zion
checks five-story suicide plunge
was attributed to maniac depreS-

CHILDREN BEG

Christmas Unless

BY THE GOODFELLOW EDITOR

BY THE GOODFELLOW EDITOR
Three little boys have been told
by their parents that there will be
no Christmas at their home this
year.
But the youngsters, 6, 4 and 2
years old, cannot believe Santa
Claus will forget good little boys.
They ask their mother:
Haven't we been just as good
as can be for months and
mOnths?"
MOTHER MAKES PLEA
The poor mother, wishing to pre-
serve their childish faith, writes
to the Gocdfellow Editor:
"My husbands salary Of S45
. month with the WPA doesn't
reach for clothing and fuel, nor
will there be a penny to spend
on the children'S Christmas.
"All the clothes the boys have
are worn and patched. The two
older boys coats are too thin
and shabby to keep them warm
when they are out playing. l
have another child, a twO-mOnth-
old baby girl, in the hospital.
"If there is someone who
would be interested in playing
Santa to the children it would
make them so happy on Christ
mas day and it would make our
burden much easier"
Someone could easily play Good
fellow to this struggling family. A
basket of food, handful of toys,
or clothes outgrown by your own
children would be blessing for
these unfortunates on an other
wise miserable holiday.
"NO Christmas"
The story of a jobleSs father
with a needy family is repeated
time after time. There is always
the phrase, There will be no
Christmas this year unless some
one helps"
An unemployed father and five
small children live in one room IN
Georgetown. They would be gra5e-
full for any help.
Another Georgetown family Of
six children is gravely in need.
The children's ages range from
five months to II years. The
mother writes her family is in
need of food and coal, and that
her children will not get a single
present on Christmas unless a
Goodfellow comes to the rescue.
Days when every little boy and
girl-even poor ones - could ex-
pect a full stocking and a splendid
Christmas dinner are gone. The

ing for an answer ordered that some
body throw him out"
Windheim drew himself up proudly
and Indignantly. Mr.. Zeigfeld," he
said, Il walked from One Hundred
and Thirteenth street on my own feet
and I guess they can carry me out of
here without any ones throwing me
out. But some day you'll want me for
the lead in one of your shows and no
money could pay me to come" That
was true prophecy. Still burning
with Indignation at not having been
given chance to show what he could
do. Windheim went down to the Met
ropolitan and secured an addition with
Gatti-CasaZza, then director. The re-
suit was fat contract which, he con-
fesseS. he carried about with him for
months in the hope that he would
come upon Mr.. Zeigfeld some fine day
and might flash it under the gentle
mans nose The rancor is all gone
today. Windheim laughs at the story
now. The trouble with Mr. Ziegfeld
was "he had no sense of humor," he
says.

treasured possessions is a per-

of gestures as I sang" he told me,
"and Gatti looked on soberly After
wards I heard he expressed himself
after this fashion: That boy is
either crazy or he is an artist" Time
has proved his artistry.
With a twinkle in his eyes, Marek
Windheim asked as I left, Did I
tell you what the critic of the Herald
Tribune said, reviewing my debut
Marek Windheim, Newest Importa-
tion From Poland, Adequate Lamp

Personally I don't think it's such
a bad thing to be an adequate
lamplighter" in this vale of too many
tears and too little music. And con-
sidering the statement from this
angle, I for one, agree with that
early critic. For those who object

was in 1881, a short time before the
presidential campaign, and Mr.. Roose-
welt, then Governor of New York State,
was on his way to visit his mother,
who was i'll in Paris. He and Wind
helm had become excellent friends,
and Mr.. Roosevelt had expressed ad-
miration for the art Of the Metropoh-
tan tenor. In fact. he had served as
chairman Of a concert that Gigli and
Windheim had given aboard ship
The morning they were to disembark
James Roosevelt asked Mr.. Windheim
If he would come to his fathers cabin,
as he had letter for him. Then 1t
was that Mr. Roosevelt presented the
singer with letter expressing his deep
regard for the Polish nation, asking
him to extend personal wishes to my
many old friends in Poland" The let
ter likewise mentioned the fact that
during the war, while in the Navy
Department in Washington, Mr..
Roosevelt had been "able to be of some
assistance to Polish patriots, especially
to those brave men who crossed Rus
sia to the shores of the Pacific" and
went on to say, land since then 1t has
been my good fortune to be able to

small theater of political satire, a

technical arrest at the conclusion
of every performance because of his

prises, so far as the future was

urge within him for more artistic
expression, accepted an offer to play

pocket, burning ambition to succeed
IN the new land. an excellent voice,
years of theatrical training, and
genius for makeup in character roles.
These things-and Ziegfield-landed
him eventually in the Metropolitan
where he has sung now for eight
seasons and will go on singing, every
one hopes, for many more.
WHEN the opportunity came to

Windheim did more than lust stand
