MATJCH 20. 1936 WASHINGTON (UP) Stephen Col lin Foster, moat famous of North American composers, la to be Intro duced to music lovers abroad as re sult of Inter-American musical en thusiasm fostered by the Pan-American Union. Faster Is the best loved of Amer ican song writers because of his four great songs which reflected kindly sentiment of old plantation days In the south and Inspired American pioneers In their trek Into the west ern plslns and deserts. Among dozens of songs which he wrote prior to his death at New York In 1864, those best known are "Way Down Upon de Swanee Rlbber," "My Old Kentucky Home.' "Massaa In de Cold. Cold Ground" snd "Old Black Joe." Another of his hits, "Oh I Su sanna," attained modern popularity as the theme song In the western pioneer epic of the films, "The Cov ered Wagon." ' Through the talent of Lulz Guz man, a Colombian by birth, now member of the United States ma rine band, 20 of the best Foster melodies have been selected and ar ranged 'for concert band. As result of the beneficence and enthusiasm of Josiah Klrby Lilly, manufacturer of. Indianapolis, Xnd.. 500 sets of the "Stephen Foster Melodies," for 17- plece bands, are about to be circu lated to musical organization throughout Latin America. The movement to Introduce Ste phen Poster abroad reciprocates the general contributions made by mu sicians of the southern republic to this country for popularization through a series of Pan-American Union concerts. These frequently were nationally and Internationally broadcast. The movement for Pan-American musical co-operation la credited here In large part to Franklin Adams, former counsellor of the union, him self a musician, who for 25 years spared no effort to popularize work of the best Latin American -nosers In the United States. Adams, now retired, resides at Athens, Greece. The internationalization of Ste phen Foster Is said to be the result of a suggestion by Adams. Ully. an ardent sdmlrer of Foster, wrote to the pan-American Union asking that a biography of the composer be ae- poslted In the union imrsry. Adams, alert to musical posslbill. ties, countered with a suggestion .that Foster's music be arranged for the use of United States service bands and Latin American organiza tions which are participating In, the Pan American musical movement, Lilly replied favorably and Luis Guz man, a distinguished composer, un dertook the technical work. A beautifully printed series of pub liestions. the "Stephen Foster Mel odles," is dedicated to Lilly, "whose generosity and love for Foster's tongs made possible the presentation of this medley." On back of the music Is a biographical sketch of Foster In the Spanish language. Mil SEEK SEAT IN CONGRESS BUND. Ore.. March 30. (AP) State Representative C. P.

(UP) Cornell uni versity has a collection of 6000 hand bllle which trace the history of the American theater from 1795 to 1905. The collection was willed to the university by the late Benno Loo we y. a lawyer and bibliophile of Mew York City. At best & sketchy one. the history of the American stage Is traced In as complete detail as possible, according to Dr. 0to Klnkeldey. Cornell's li brarian. The bills represent early theaters of virtually every old Ameri can city, and a majority deal with the pre-Vlctorlan and Victorian play houses of England and the United States. The handbills will be available to research students when their ar rangement Is completed. Dr. Klnkel dey announced. They fill five large wooden chests. Among the earliest bills In the col lection is one dated January 5, 1795, and which comes from a New York playhouse. The dodger Is merely en tiled "Theatre" no other name of the playhouse is given. It offers "the very popular opera of the 'Haunted Tower performed by the Old Ameri can Company in Philadelphia with unbounded applause." To pad out the evening, a comedy In three acts called the "Midnight Hour" was also scheduled. For these performances box seats sold for eight shillings, pit seats for six shillings and gallery seats for four shillings. The curtain waa scheduled to rise at 6:16 p. m., but In bold type dodger advised "ladles and gentlemen to send their servants at 5 o'clock to keep their places." Then, with Irrelevant gusto, came a "vlvat Respubllca!" (long live the republic) In the lower right-hand corner. "Buy American" even was popular In 1834. On a handbill for the American theater. Bowery, New York City, dat ed August 11, Is the statement: "The public is respectfully Informed that this establishment will reopen for the season this evening, August 11, when It Is the Intention of the-manager to pursue more diligently than ever the same course he adopted at the com mencement of his managerial career four years ago, the encouragement and promotion of native American talent." The bill then advertises the forth coming presentation of "Vlrglnlus," a tragedy. The star of the piece was one Herr Cllne, a Swiss. Immedi ately after the performance, and for the gratification of one and all, Herr Cllne was to present "a study of all the human passions," In an amazing routine of gymnastics." The versatile Cllne was then to wind up the merry evening by giving his "famous Swiss Wooden Shoe Dance." The American theater In New York believed in giving its patrons their money's worth. One bill from this establishment presents this bounteous fare: 'Pour acts of the Merchant of Venice; a solo on the flute by Mr. Cuddy, who will Introduce several popular Irish airs; the popular ex travaganza of 'Zip Coon," by. Mr. Bob Farrell; after which a new farce written by a gentleman of this city and called the 'Removal of the De posited' will be presented." The eve ning was to wind up with the "Forest of Bondy, or the Dog of Monteargls." Through the Civil War, nothing of the sinking of the nation's spirit was reflected in the theater. There was no departure from the policies of the "noisy thirties." But by 1865 grand opera was edg tgn Its wcy In ever so slightly. On December 2, Meyerbeer's 'L'Afrlcalne" saw its second night In America at the New York Academy of Music. In the Civil War dodgers such no tices as "the free list is entirely sus pended with the exception of the press' were common. Anniversary programs of colored satin were the vogue for the 100th performance of a play. One beautlfu program of yellow and green brocade told patrons that Lawrence Barrett, as Cat us Casslus, had been starred for the hundredth consecutive time In "Julius Caesar" at Booth's theater on December 27. 1875. HERE ARE THE REAL FACTS ABOUT BRAN Brought Out by Testa -with Kellogg's All-Bran Some years ago, there was consid erable difference of opinion regard ing the use of bran. So to discover the actual facta of the case, the Kellogg Company asked for a series of laboratory testa at lead ing universities. Experimental studies on a group of healthy women showed that the continued use of bran was thor oughly satisfactory. Unlike ca thartics, it did not lose its effect. Other Independent tests on men indicated that, with certain people, the "bulk" in bran was more effec tive than that found in fruits and vegetables. Laboratory analysis proved that Kellogg's All-Bran supplied vita min B and iron as well as plenty of bulk. This "bulk" In All-Bran is gentle in action. It absorbs a great deal of moisture, and cleanses the intestinal tract. All-Bran corrects constipation due to insufficient "bulk." It is the natural way far better than us ing pills and tablets. Serve as a cereal or use in cooking. Sold by all grocers. Made by Kellogg in Battle Creek. "The prime Baby beeves In this picture were purchased In Rogue River valley.
