Margaret Anglin in 'The Woman of Bronze** started slowly but turned in good week by reason of mouth to mouth advertising of the women who liked the vehicle. DES MOINES By DON'CLARK The Iowa opens Sept. 29 with a two-dny engagement of "Eve." "Bluebeard's Eighth Wife" will fol- low for a three-day run. The house was formerly the Orpheurn. but is now owned by Elbert and Getchell. It will be used exclusively for legitimate. "The Broken Wing" in stock at Princess. Next week "Rollo's Wild Oats.", As Des Moines is being host to the national encampment of the G. A. R. this week, the Orpheurn is fea- turing Col. J. A. Pattee, the old soldier fiddler, who is playing at that house this week. Films this week: "Masquerader," at Des Moines; 'Bonded Woman." at Strand: "Five Dollar Baby," at Garden. INDIANAPOLIS By VOLNEY B. FOWLER An Indiana office of the Anti-Blue Law League of America. Inc.. was of real strength in many directions. I ?**?** at »«0 Consolidated Buiidinff Criterion with Shubert Vaudeville picked up materially with nights going to, capacity although mat- inees still somewhat off. "Spice of Life" drew favorable notice and turned in overflow at end of week. Shea's Court Street keeping up pace with no signs of fall-off despite competition. Showing bills of high quality with big business apparent continuously. Burlesque continued steady with Garden (Mutual) still pulling them in for a business. Running special features including amatuer nights. Gayety doing well, last week's show "Temptations of 1923" getting ex- cellent break. in Indianapolis last week. Mark B. Archer is state secretary, and Karl W. Hoffman, Indianapolis, secretary. {" Corporation The league will publish a periodical to be known as "Anti-Blue Law Freedom." Representatives of the Marion County W. C. T. U. have no? car- ried out their threat to close the- atres Sunday by injunction if Mayor Shank does not shut them up by police order, although the threat was made a week ago. The mayor reiterated his stand against blue htws before leaving for Detroit this wt*ek. The same day the W. C. T. U. women came to him. a delegation of poolroom owners desiring the police prohibition of card playing be lifted, and a dry beer saloon- keeper who thought the police were "laying on" hira too hard, were waiting in other rooms at the city hall. "I wish I had thought to lock them alt In the same room together and come back in an hour and ask them if they had figured out a way for me to run the city to please everybody," the mayor said. The Indiana internal revenue of- fice announced it would sell furni- ture and mechanical equipment of the Meridian movie theatre. Ander- son. Ind.. to collect $1,423.43 it al- leges is due from C. John Predary, proprietor, fpr admission tax and penalty. The Indianapolis Operating Cor- poration, incorporated in New,York, qualified late last week .to do -busi- ness in Indianapolis, where $10,000 of its capital is represented. The move was part of the transfer of interest in Loew's State theatre to the Keith interests. C.
