...Montgomery troupe danced neatly, made the little ballet often pathetic, often good for a laugh. Critic Edwin H. Schloss of the Record wisely rated the performance "a minor triumph." In the four years she has been dancing at the Dell, handsome Miss Montgomery has triumphed many times before. Her repertoire runs from Renaissance pavans and sarabands to formal, dignified Mozart, and striped, angular performances like the Study in Counter Rhythm for Dancers and Percussion Instruments which she put on at the Dell in 1934. In that year's Maguey she donned a skintight dress that fitted down under...
...Home-Philadelphians who stay home for the summer swelter. Those who like music go to the Philadelphia Orchestra concerts at Robin Hood Dell to console themselves. There last week 3,000 Philadelphians could almost imagine themselves out of the sticky, uncomfortable city when Mary Binney Montgomery and her troupe danced their own version of George Gershwin's An American in Paris. Miss Montgomery's choreography followed closely Gershwin's sparkling musical account of a tourist "adrift in the City of Light."

Detailed to take the Countess to Petrograd, A. J.'s first gallant gesture is to free her near a White Army outpost. When the Red Army recaptures the post, A.

They are arrested again, handed over to an impressionable young Commissar for safekeeping. The young Commissar falls in love with the Countess, kills himself so she can escape. The Countess and A. J. board a river boat for the border...
...Lucy Monroe, Lucille Manners, the Four Southernaires. Young Donald Dickson of the Metropolitan sang a song from The Vagabond King. Of the $7,000 raised by this concert, part went to Mayor Wilson's Milk Fund, part to the Orchestra's summer concerts at bosky Robin Hood Dell. Two days later, with dark Spanish Jose Iturbi on the podium, the Dell concerts officially began...
...Like Dell, the old woodpulp publishing firm of Street & Smith keeps a weather eye cocked for new fields to enter. Street & Smith's new picture magazine is a large rotogravure publication exclusively devoted to sport. Launched as a monthly for a dime, Pic offers twelve issues for a dollar, presents action shots of current stars like Joe Di Maggio, Joe Louis, Jim Braddock, oldtimers like Annette Kellerman and Hans ("Honus"') Wagner. Idea of Pic came from its business manager, young A. Lawrence Holmes, Princetonian son of S. & S.'s Vice President Artemas Holmes...
