PRESENT "MAYTIME"
BEGINNING MONDAY

In this theatrical season, which is
remarkable for the large number of
new productions wrecked almost at
the beginning of their careers. the
reason being attributed to bad times,
whereas it is frequently due to the
lack of merit of the material, it is a
genuine pleasure to find that staunch
and splendid success, "Maytime,"
still riding on the top wave of pros-
perity, still under the guidance of
the Messrs. Shubert.
No introduction is needed in this
city to Miss Eileen Van Biene, who
has already endeared herself through
her adroit and tender performance
of Ottillie, the love-stricken heroine
of the story, and Otis Sheridan will
be equally welcome in his familiar
impersonation of that quaint and cun-
ning rogue, Matthew Van Zandt,
whom we see in the various stages
of his life with a different wife for
each epoch. and eternal youth bub-
bling within him, even when he be-
comes no old he can hardly walk.
"Maytime" will be offered at the
Michigan Theater for the week be-
ginning Monday, with the usual mati-
nees.

Beginning with the Monday mati-

Colonial Theater management an-

critics everywhere seem to agree is
the greatest achievement of her ca-

in. The vaudeville bill, headlined by
none other than Smiling Billy Mason,

USICAL activities in Detroit has had somewhat of a let-
down during the past week, the only concert of im-
portance being the Sunday afternoon "Pop" by the
Detroit Symphony Orchestra with Victor Kolar wielding the
baton. Incidentally there were fewer people there than at any
concert this season, the orchestra playing to row after row of
empty seats. The orchestra itself has been heard in bets, r
form than it was on this occasion, the holiday spirit and
lack of attendance tending to make them somewhat carele,s
with the result that there were several ragged spots, especially
in the first number. The entire program was made up of dative
music, and the soloists for the afternoon were Theo Yeschke,
solo flute, and Rufus Mont Arey, solo clarinet. They played a
"Tarantella" by Saint-Saens in a most delightful manner, and
the beauty and ease with which these two artists played makes
us wish to hear them less infrequently in the future. They

MISS ELINOR HEAVENRICH
-- Photograph by C. L. Lewis, Toledo.

Miss Elinor Ileavenrich, charming daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Max Philip
Heavenrich (Minna Enggass) of Saginaw and granddaughter of Mrs. Adolph
Enggass of this city, was the winner of the first prize for the best essay
submitted by pupils of all the public schools of Saginaw on "The Value of
the Welfare League." The prize was awarded by the Kiwanis Club of that
city by judges chosen from well known educators. Miss Elinor, who is 12
years of age and a pupil in the seventh grade of the Hoyt School, displays
marked literary talent and has written many articles on various subjects
that have elicited favorable comment. The Kiwanis prize was turned over
to the Welfare League by Miss Elinor, to be devoted to the furtherance
of the work of that organization. In a recent visit to Washington, Elinor
was introduced to President Harding, the meeting being arranged by Con-
gressman Fordney of Saginaw.

The Ladies' Auxiliary of Shaarey
Zedek wish to thank its members,
their children and pupils of the Sun-
day school for their generous response
made in answer to the appeal for pro-
visions for the poor for the festival
of Chanukah.
Forty needy families were taken
care of, the baskets filled and deliv-
ered through the courtesy of the Bi- I
cur Cholem, Jrs. The auxiliary is
planning a Bundle Day very soon.
Members are urged to assist in this
work.
The next regular meeting of the
Ladies' Auxiliary will be held Mon-
day afternoon, Jan. 9, at 2:30. The
program committee has secured the
services of Miss Mildred Simons for a
reading. A fine musical program has
also been arranged, to include piano
selectionvby Julius Soper and songs
by Mrs. J. Silberstein.
On Tuesday afternoon, Jan. 31, the
auxiliary will give a card party at
the Federation clubrooms, corner of
Hancock and Second boulevard. The
proceeds of this affair will be used
for a Pesach fund for students at

MACCABEAN SPORTS

The Maccabean Sports, an organ-
ization recently organized, has sur-
passed its own expectations by its
rapid progress. Starting with only
four members it has increased no
steadily that it now numbers 15. The'
chief purpose of the organization is
to encourage sports of all kinds, as
well as to benefit the Jewish commun-
ity of this city as a whole. The newly
elected officers are as follows: II.
Shultz, president; Ben Rotman, secre-
tary, and S. Golden, treasurer. The
program committee, consisting of J.
Thumin and S. Pomerantz, arranged
some excellent programs, one of the
best of which was presented at the
last meeting.
A. Gilkowsky gave a concise and in-
teresting talk on "The Importance of
Chanukah." J. Thumin's well pre-
sented speech • on "Why Maccabean
History is no Exceptional," convinced
the members present beyond a shadow
of a doubt that Chanukah was a
source of inspiration for the Jew of
today. H. Horowitz deeply impressed
the members with his detailed discus-
sion on "The Possibility of a Jewish
Homeland."
