YIDDISH PLAYERS
PLEASE MANY
Johnny Rogers
BY Nathan Finley

Before a crowd that almost
filled the auditorium of the Wom-
ans Club on Jan. Z, the Yiddish
Theatre Group staged its first
presentation of the season, prov
ing that they are capable profess
sionals. Judging by the audiences
reaction to their performance, the
program was both interesting and
entertaining.
Of special interest was the
sketch ''The Lonely Hearts," por-
traying the condition of the DIP.
camps in Europe. The part of
Rabbi Kaufman was touchingly
played by Abe Zwaig. The second
part of the evening featured a
one-act comedy, ''The Dream" "
and turned out to be one laugh
after another.
Mrs. Zwaig was especially eff
fective as the believing, simple
minded housewife. Albert Tamil
anoff, another member of the
company, proved he is an old
hand at stage business with his
singing and acting. The group acts
well as a team and their indi-
vidual talents are many. They
deserve good audiences and
should get them.
Their next show will be Janu-
ary "a, Saturday, at 8:15 pm, at
the Woman's Club, 317 w. Ala
media, featuring 'The Mirror of
Life" a one-act comedy drama
with songs, along with another
one-act comedy.

What Breeds Boy
Gangs Crimes

NEW YORK = Equalor and
overcrowding in New York's TIar-
lem slumS, depriving children Of
their natural sense of family
unity, breed a lawless, wolfpack
spirit which findS expression in
boy gangs who war on each 9TH
er with lethal weapons and COM
NIT crimes ranging from theft to
outright murder. Members of
these gangs mot problem chill
dren OF a problem society but
they are children and fire.
quently, as individuals, exhibit
a loyalty and courage which dis
close a high degree of human
decency. Such are the conclu-
sions of Bradford Chambers,
whose forthcoming book on a
problem which has long baffled
Sociologists and police is con-
densed in The Readers Digest
for August.
Chambers book is the result of
several years of first-hand inves-
tigation CT the private and gang
life OF colored ard white boys in
''Mousetown," as the poorest
sections Of Harlem are called
by the boys themselves. The
author, accepted by many Of the
youthful gangsters as a trusted
friend, went into their homes,
saw how they lived, talked to
their parents and teachers, and
tried to organize club activities
to replace the lawless violence
of gang wars.
Typical of the homes visited
was a vermin- infested, cold
water fiat into which the author
was taken by a boy who lived
there. The small four-room
apartment housed three families.
Its single bathroom, without
tub, was shared Ey the occupants
Of three other fats. Chambers
young escort explained that the
landlord, a white man, knows
that us colored can't move out of
this neighborhood."
Denied the child's nrmal need
Of family life and security, boys
join gangs as relief from the
loneliness of slum existence and
as protection from other gangs,
Chambers concludes. Only by
eliminating the living conditions
which breed the gang spirit, can
the gangs be dissipated. You
