38 THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C. FRTfl}lY, MARCH 8, 1929. —_— CISSIE LOFTIS TOPS PROGRAM TONIGHT Vaudeville Stars Will Head Attractions Offered Over WMAL. George Jessel, noted star of the stage and screen, with Cissie Loftis, an out- standing artist in the American theater, are co-starred in the weekly Vodevil hour to be broadcast tonight by WMAL and assoclated stations in the Columbia Broadcasting System. The Ponce Sis- ters, Richard Maxwell, tenor, a male quartet, and a salon orchestra, under the direction of Freddie Rich, also will take part in this program. Glose-ups, another WMAL-Columbia attraction, will depict the filming of an English society comedy. Other Colum- bia attractions scheduled by this sta- | tion include a 15-minute period of mel- odles, beginning at 6:45 o'clock, the story hour, the kodak hour and Night Club romances. The territory which furnished a background for Longfel- low's Evangeline will be visited by Mary and Bob in the story hour. of the kodak broadcast will be George Frame Brown, originator of many radio programs, who is better known perhaps as the original Luke Huggins in “Main Street,” and the present Matt Tompkins in “Real Folks.” Nat Shilkret and his famous orchestra also will contribute to this program. A feud of the gold rush Gays of '49 will furnish the plot for the Night Club romance. Aside from the Columbia programs, WMAL has scheduled & number of at- tractions of local origin, chief among them a joint recital by Dorothy Sin- nott, contralto, and Mrs. Paul Bleyden, pianist, and a program by the Institute of Musical Art. There also will be the datly “Flashes from The Evening Star” by Ralph McCabe, and a talk by Louis Rothschild, director of the Better Busi- ness Bureau, on Washington's “Sucker List.” Another of the series of “Half Hours with the Senate,” an outstanding WRC attraction tonight, will bring before the microphone two more members of the Senate—Senators Tydings of Maryland | and Sackett of Kentucky. The musical portion of WRC's pro- gram includes its regular Friday night attractions—the Twins, Bakers, Cava- lers and brass band, with Gus and Loule. In addition, there will be an- other Evening in Paris episode, fea- turing a tabloid version of the Parisian operetta “Comte Obligado.” The twins, Al Bernard and Bllly Beard, will herald the coming of Spring, while the Cavaliers will present a color- ful musical program, assisted by Rosario Bourdon and his orchestra. “Hook" Kennedy, “the Jolly Scot” and the Savoy Musicomedians headline the WOL program tonight. WJSV is fea- turing Hughes' Orchestra and the Champion Fiddlers. SCHOOL PUPILS ACCUSED OF DRINKING AND PETTING By the Associated Press. RACINE, Wis., Marchs8—Rumors of widespread drinking and petting at junior high school parties were recog- nized by the Racine Board of Education today, when a sweeping investigation was ordered. School functions at the Washington and the McKinley Junior High Schools are mainly under fire, but the board’s in- quiry will include all phases of student activity throughout the city. It is charged that youngsters have been bringing liquor to school parties. Principal Thomas E. Sanders of the ‘Washington School denied knowledge of such actions at parties there. Principal H. C. Kilbourn of McKinley School sald at one party four brought home brew, but drank outside. He learned of it next day and severely reprimanded them, he said.
