Roxy and His Gang = Central Union Mission Musical Revue Ryshanek’s Orchestra BO00 GAGS USED | ONRADIO BY WYNN Comedian Says He Used Enough Material for 80 =t Stage Productions. | E | three years enough comedy ma- terial for 80 stage productions. | The fire chief has used more than | 8,000 gags or funny points since his | | first, broadcast in April of 1932. The | comic says he would use about 100 such efforts at laughs in each of his own stage productions, this figure, incidentally, being higher than the {average number of humorous lines | |g1ven most comedians for the reason that Wynn always dominates his own stage scripts and has a part in every scene. The material which he has used on the radic would make almost no end of vaudeville acts. On the theory that if in any 15-minute vaudeville turn a comedian could get three laughs a minute the performance would be con- sidered highly successful—“and you could play it for 108 weeks without a change!” The same advantage of repetition prevails with a musical comedy, but with Wynn and radio a new show must be written every week, always with far more than 50 funny lines. And the delivery of comedy in radio is more difficult. In broadcasting, a faster pacz must be maintained, and for Wynn much of his comedy must come frora ridiculous vocalizing; on the stage, a comedian may gauge his acting, playing with his audience to built it for proper reception of the punch lines.

INCREASE IN ARMY IS VOTED BY HOUSE Lawmakers Would Make Expan-; sion From 118,750 to 165, 000 Men Mandatory. By the Associated Press. The House voted yesterday to in- crease the strength of the Army from 118,750 to 165,000 men. Originally, the provision in the $370,000,000 War Department ap-| propriation bill, left it to President Roosevelt's discretion whether to make the increase. But, 97 to 66, the House voted to make it mandatory. From the time the measure, carry- ing a near record peace time ap- propriation, came to the floor two days ago, there was criticism of the committee’s failure to provide out- right for the Army expansion. D. A. R. SEEKS $250,000 | TO CANCEL HALL DEBT President General Appeals for| Contributions to Burn Mortgage by Next Convention. To pay off the remaining mortgage of $250,000 on Constitution Hall by the time the next Continental Con- gress convenes in April is the object of Mrs. Russell William Magna, pres- ident general. in appealing for con- tributions of $2 or more from each of | the 150,000 members of the Daughters of the American Revolution. As chairman of the Constitution Hall Finance Committee, Mrs. Magna has addressed a personal letter to each member of the society soliciting | a contribution. The hall was built at ' a cost of $2,000,000 in much the same way—from small contributions over | a period of 10 years. Burning of the last mortgage on the hall, it is said, is Mrs. Magna's greatest ambition. .

FIRST LADY GIVES OPINION OF BRUNO Disavows Sympathy for Him, but Is Troubled by Conviction Method. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, February 23.—Mrs. Franklin D. Rcosevelt, keeping engage- ments in three cities yesterday and today, told interviewers here that “while I have absolutely no sympathy for Hauptmann, I can’t help wonder- ing what would happen if it were an innocent person on trial.” Emphasizing that comment on the | case of Bruno Hauptmann was not | pertinent unless the speaker had at- tended his trial for the killing of the Lindbergh baby. she said “the only thing that troubled me was that the conviction was on circumstantial evidence.” | Her remarks were in support of a| similar interview which she had given | earlier yesterday at Atlantic City. She spoke on & commercially spon- sored radio program last night, telling her listeners “Martha Washington's | good taste in expressing no public | opinions that differed with her hus-| band still holds good, for the respon- sibility to the electorate is his, and | the leadership should remain there- | fore in his hands.” Martha Washington did not make the Winter trip from Mount Vernon to New York to see her husband in- augurated, said Mrs. Roosevelt, who often travels between Washington and this city in a few hours by airplane or automobile. Mrs. Washington would end her formal levees at 9 o'clock because | that was the President's bedtime, the | speaker said, while the Rooseveltian | hour to retire is “at none o'clock.” | “Today we dine at 7:45 or 8 o'clock,” | she said, “and it is often 1 o'clock | before the night's work is done.” | Mrs. Roosevelt planned to attend | tonight at Hyde Park the second meet- | ing of the Committee for mdusmn); Rehabilitation of the President’s Home Town. She said she was going “as a | private citizen.” She attended Sean O'Casey’s “With- i in the Gates,” the play which was banned from Boston, after her broad- cast last night. Smallest Dynamo Shown.

Appointment of four additional members, announced today, completed the personnel of the Women's Safety Committee of the District of Columbia Motor Club, formed to aid in finding methods to reduce the number of traffic fatalities in the District. The new members, which bring the committee list up to 25, are Mrs. Pat- rick J. Hurley, Mrs. J. Borden Harri- man, Mrs. Reginald Huidekoper and Mrs. Sidney F. Taliaferro. Indorsed by Judge Schuldt. The committee has been indorsed by Judge Gus A. Schuldt, presiding judge of Police Court, who in a letter to Mrs. George C. Thorpe, chairman of the safety group, said: “To insure safety upon our public highways is one of the vital problems confronting us today. As a constant advocate of safety, I firmly believe that your organization of earnest women | will have a beneficial effect in curbing | our ghastly traffic toll” The 25 main committee members have formed themselves into groups of subcommittees to study various phases | of the traffic problem. Mrs. George Barnett and Mrs. Ellis | A. Yost have been named to a special committee under chairmanship of Mrs. Marian Bannister to study the truck- ing situation here, taking into consid- eration size of trucks and speed with | which they travel. Mrs. Thorpe and Mrs. Taliaferro have been named to serve on a sub- committee, Mrs. Florence M. Brewer Boeckel chairman, to study and make recommendations regarding operators’ permits for youthful drivers. Young Drivers to Be Watched. | Mrs, Thorpe in a statement said | effective control of youthful drivers | would aid in improving the safety | record here. | “Approximately 17,000 accidents | were caused throughout the Nation last year by drivers under 18 years of age, while more than 30,000 accidents | were caused by drivers having a year or less driving experience,” Mrs. Thorpe said. She urged a plan of “provisional | licenses” under which new drivers | would be under probation for a year and would have to establish them- selves as careful motorists before being given full driving privileges.
