Georges Andre Martin acts as master of ceremonies with considerable suaveness and a nice sort of Chevalier accent. He justifies himself in the second act with a most unusual and amusing novelty. With the spotlight focused on a black table top, he causes two fingers of each hand to move so that they give an exact imitation of the more popular dance styles. Raphael, the well known concertina player, has, under his French plumber's exterior, the soul and talent of the lighter and more dazzling classics which stop the show for numerous encores. The Rocky brothers dance lightly...
Black Barber. Last week brought the feast day of a humble Peruvian who was beatified and declared Blessed in 1837. He was Martin de Porres (1579-1639). a mulatto barber whose father was a Spanish nobleman and whose mother was a Negro. A Dominican lay brother, Blessed Martin was a "Father of the Poor." The movement to elevate Blessed Martin to sainthood is being fostered not only by priests who give Porres leaflets to Pullman porters but also by 50,000 members of the Blessed Martin Guild, founded by The Torch, Dominican monthly whose editor is Rev. Edward Hughes...

Onto this extraordinary set Playwright Kingsley leads a poor crippled architect who, in the vain hope of winning a young woman living with one of the plutocrats in the fine apartment, informs on a boyhood friend named "Babyface" Martin. Martin's predilection for homicide has ranked him as Public Enemy No. 1. At the same time, the dramatist shows by inference how "Babyface" Martins are made by tracing the activities of a moppet named Tommy (Billy Halop) and his juvenile gang. There is nothing more seriously the matter with Tommy than that he has lice in his hair, which...
