NEGRO SHOW, SETS
BROADWAY RAvING
Price Sc
By Carl Dunbar Laurence


NEW YORK, Sept. 7 (ANP)-
There's a significant new drama
on Broadway and, judging from
what the critics are saying, it will
probably be here long after Christ
mas.
At the premiere, when the cast
of ID had uttered their final lines
on the stage Of the Mansfield the
atre, Anna Lucasta received a
dozen curtain calls. The audience
had seen both comedy and drama;
and some of the best acting ever
witnessed on Broadway.
1t is the first time, Broadway
ties say, that an all-Negro cast
has been used to act like other peo-
pie and not clowns. Anna Lucasta
might have easily been a member
Of any white family.
Since your reporter is not
critic, I'll tell you what some Of
the rated observers said. Bill Rob-
inson, the dancer, called it "great"
and quite right there. Any Razaf,
the songwriter said, "It's excellent.
They'll be here long time"
PMS Louis Kronenberger, who
is rated as Al critic, wrote:
Though a bungled story, Anna
Lucasta is full of exciting people.
Hilda Sans gave more even
performance than she did in Har-
lem. Mr.. Gribble has directed the
show with gusto, and concealed its
length by smart pacing. The play
remains, in essence, something that
captures the spirit Of the theatre,
even though it falls apart as
drama, and commits almost every
possible sin against art. My guess
is it will be a hit"
Burton Roscoe, of the N. Y.
WOflQ Telegram, SAID:
"In my opinion Anna Lucasta is
. the most important event in our
native American drama in &c
years. 1t is not only top-notch the
atre, with some of the finest act
ing that has ever been seen or
Broadway, it is the first American
play to treat Negro life without Z
certain amused condensation; tht
! first play of Negro life to recog
nize the fact that Negroes are in
dividuals with pretty much th'
| same problems as that of tn
whites"
, Most of the other critics praise,
Anna Lucasta, conceding that i
was a hit and predicting that
. would attract packed houses 70
a long time.

Knoxville City Manager
Uses Salary 10 Buy
Home for Crippled Girl
Vol. 3-No. 2o4

KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Sept. 7.
(ANP)-Citizens of Knoxville
were not surprised at theircity
manager, George R. Dempster, who
when recently voted by the city
council an increase of $4,000 per
year in salary, announced that he
would give the entire increase this
year to public charity. Mr.. Demps-
ter announced that he would give
the increase amounting to $1,100
toward the purchase Of home
for Lillian Allsup, colored girl,
who Is years ago received bull
let wound which severed her spine
when a city policeman fired at
fleeing bootlegger. Then, small
child playing in the street, Lillian
has been paralyzed ever since from
the waist down, and gets around
only by means Of a wheel chair.
The mother Of Lillian brought
suit in the courts against the po-
liceman and the city, but the high
est court in the state ruled that
no judgment could be sustained
against the city since the injury
was caused by reason of the usual
functions Of the municipality. A
judgment was permitted against
the policeman, but nothing could
be collected of him. Mr.. Dempster
has long contended that if city
did not owe legal obligation to
Lillian Allsup, that it owed a
moral obligation, and said in an
interview, "It is my purpose to
buy this home and deed it to this
innocent victim of an unusual ac-
cident. If it is impossible to do this
I will buy another that I hope can
take the place Of this one in the
affections of the family. The price
will be paid with taxpayers money,
so in reality this gift will be from
the citizens of Knoxville of every
race and creed, made possible
through the unanimous action of
their representatives and the city
council"
Some years ago when friends
started a move to buy a wheel
chair for Lillian, Mr.. Dempste1
heard of it and donated the entire
amount. When Mr.. Dempster became
city manager he made arrange.
ments for Lillian to have specia
music lessons at Knoxville college
and had the police department take
her in a police car to school every
morning and to take her back home
in the afternoon.
Lillian's father died a number
of years ago, but she and hel
mother in their small home have
been overjoyed at Mr.. Dempster's
generosity and at the thought thai
they are to have a home all o1
their own.
This act is no political gestur.
on Mr.. Dempster's part, as he wa.
only recently made city manager
and sacrificed considerable busi
ness interest to accept the posi-
tion.
