Besides the | intricate and strenuous types per- be | formed in previous performances be- ripe PY me | fore the public, the troupe this year Pi ued | | goes into two and three high hand- ! y 4 f i, stands. : [iad ca Fw) Working with Edward Kummer and v fl —4 4 | Bob Van Haren this year are two | ea | newcomers, Donald and Dennis Ed- . hd “ b wards, who show great promise of / ce, p | becoming top-notchers. Wm. Schultz ae who formerlv filled in on this number i en ee: will confine himself to occasional im- promptu performances, being, in the main, too busily occupied in conditioning the numerous new acts appearing this year. R™GELY ACT—Children at their best— Although the youngsters in the Ridgely troupe are beginning to grow up, most of them are just graduating into the teen age. With but one or two exceptions this is the same troupe that has been thrilling audiences in this section of the state for the past fiour years. Included in this troupe are Billy Schultz’s two youngsters, Wm. Jr. and Dorothy, and a group of their interested friends : who someday hope to become topnotchers in the profession. They graduate this year from the simpler forms of Ridgely to advanced types of acrobatics which they incorporate in their act. BARREL JUMPING— Decidely a new act with a new slant on [i : entertainment is that offered by the : Scientific Jumping Jacks, Bob Moenten- oa ich, Joe Peifer, Orville Matte, Eugene oy ~. Hilke, Ray Augustine and Leonard Kem- ee pka. They devise more ingenious meth- ' a: ods of jumping into and out of barrels ) than the spectator can keep up with. In » the illustration the lad on the right has jumped off the top of the pile of bar- |i nC os aN rels, landed on the teeter board, thus ¥ x catapulting the other fellow into the air where he is making a somersault pre- a paratory to landing in the barrel held by his partners. F ve | , | Hh ; . V4 i ime , oe i Ls Uj Coe NtmW CLOWN NUMBERS— Sd Ais The rocking tables gained an addition en Si one in the form of the first female clown = i a aoe ever to appear with an amateur Ee eS Ne group. Miss Virginia Bryant joins Bek ot Be aoe Don Underberg in his mirthful mani- ee ye Ne pulations of the tottering tables in La SE a this years show while Wesley Bos- je oe ae well plays the role iof the devilish son 2 ca who wants to “come along.” The usual a. difficulties prior to the actual crash — 8 af. have been enlarged and improved NN Sy upon to make the act even funnier. ; Baa Other acts include the clown band, Aes Four in a Turkish Bath, and a clever Sar, new number detailing two clowns ex- ee ee periences with an evil owl and an og acrobatic old Lucifer. ; A The comedy triple horizintal bar act wee will also have its clown as will the ’ new wire act. Between acts while : ze apparatus is being set, Underberg and Sicns his troupe of fun promoters will pre- : : : : sent impromtu gag situations design- eens pe ’ ed to throw spectators into gales of mirth. ee cS ee ee THREE SKATING MARVELS— ; Duplicating any similar skating act ra "ever presented on the professional : _ stage, Delbert Butler, Dorothea Raih 2 and Dorothy Drill present a hair- Oat fi a raising number that will tie any for -. | sheer daring. Whirling rapidly on LS ” an the small wooden platform on which ok a they perform, the trio take turns LN an supporting each other in the presen- yy i q tation of numbers heretofore attempt- + ‘ bP ed only on high trapeze paraphernalia. —- | ? N posll a.) a ees iu aie) al ( COMEDY TRIPLE HORIZONTAL Ph. ES, } | | : BAR— ; : : Doubling the crew on the horizon- J he i | tal bars puts just twice as many p ep : ' thrills in this standard offering and - ee : to dress the act even more than oe i before, Director Schultz has added ee . some innovations designed to give y | if \ LAY ee the acme in bar work. 4 i; cite. ee oe Kummer and Van Haren have pa haw), es 2 worked at this act for years and we) a: ee have perfected it to the point of x R 2 9 wv — professionalism. The newcomers % have rapidly adapted themselves to MA | d | ¥ j : the intricacies of the work and « ~ “A y a make fine showings as well. — 6 The act has always been one de- se cad manding precise timing and the slightest mistake could easily re- : : sult in serious injury. To add to Arabian Eyres complications, Kummer has _per- fected a new stunt where, while turning a somersault between two bars, he also does a half twist. This was formerly confined only to acts where plenty of space was allowed for mistakes in timing. =--2 -@ My t, | iv Ry CLOUD SWING— iy ‘ i A stunt performed in only one other see i <a circus in this country and one which a a has only recently been devised, will be nll performed daily by Miss Anita Fidler IY 2 bAN ins in her demonstration of the Human Le 3 ae Fly. In this demonstration she walks | is ty in an upside down position along the ee A ceiling, supported only by loops at- yi 1a \c tached to a piece of ceiling apparatus. ee. Pea In addition to this feature of her per- \ Leo a formance, Miss Fidler presents the \] ae ” eo ay cloud swing routine wherein she does iA aoe a a number of aerial acrobatics and bal- eat aa ancing routines, supported only by a ; i® rapidly swaying rope. / if im f ea | DOUBLE PERCH ACT— tes # at eae Addition of another person to the perch ie Fee . ae act makes it doubly interesting this ise ln al year.

  • The Flying La Vans
    “The Flying La Vans,” were first known by the name the “La Van Brothers” or the “Brothers La Van.” They were the first of many Bloomington born-and-bred aerial acts that formed during the ‘Golden Age’ of the circus in the U.S. in the late 1800s and continued to perform into the early twentieth century. Originally, the troupe was organized by brothers Fred and Howard Green (Greene) in 1877. Later the group include the younger brother Harry following Howard’s retirement. The La Van act, in all of its incarnations, commands a pivotal place in the history of the practice and development of the art of trapeze in the United States. FRED GREEN (1858-1897), son of John Lester Green and Harriet A. (Van Alstine) Green, was born in Bloomington, IL on March 2, 1858. Fred was one of seven children (the oldest of four sons). Like his younger brothers, Fred had a “penchant for athletics” as a child that continued to thrive in his teen years and beyond.1 Fred and his younger brother Howard (1867-1952) chose to dedicate this prowess to the study of the trapeze.2 Despite their father’s known disfavor and desire that his sons would continue the family confectionary business, Fred and Howard formed the “La Van Brothers” around 1878.”3 It is difficult to determine the exact nature of the brothers’ aerial act or exactly when the brothers first performed. For example, contrary to select sources local historian and circus enthusiast Steve Gossard proposes that the original La Van Brothers act was first a stationary bar act and not a trapeze act.4 Similarly, though some sources claim that the La Vans were the first to 1 “Fred Green is Dead; Famous Bloomington Athlete Expires in the Prime of Life,” The Pantagraph (June 15, 1897).
