Former Omahans j
in Stricken Zone
Judge and Mrs. Charles Lo
^binger and Arthur Jorgen
^ sen in'Tokio.
Arthur Jorgensen, a secretary of
the Y. M. C. A. in Tokio, is one of
the Omahans believed to be in the
stricken district. Mr. Jorgensen Is
a graduate of Nebraska university
of the class of 1909.
Mrs. J. R. Scobie, Mias Jessie Mil
lard and Mrs. Barton of Omaha are
touring Japan at the present time,
but believed to be in Nikko,
which is not in the earthquake area.
Tlie party is to sail from Kobe,
Japan, next Tuesuay on the Empress
of Canada to China and then home
ward, according to word received by
Mr. Scobie and his daughter, Mrs.
Alan McDonald.
Fear is entertained for the safety
of Judge Charles Lobingier and his
wife, both of whom are former Oma
hans. Judge Lobingier was former
ly a lawyer in Omaha, but he and
his wife have been living in Japan
for over 17 years. Judge Lobingier
is connected with the United States
court in China.
T. L. Marshall of Omaha 'is
anxiously awaiting some word from
his sister, Mrs. T. H. Amrine, who,
with her husband, is believed to be
in Yokohama. Mr. Amrine is gen
eral manager of the Tokio Electric
company. Their residence was on
a high bluff and it is believed they
may have escaped the effects of the
earthquake. Mr. and Mrs. Amrine
left Omaha 12 years ago.
August Virden of San Francisco,
stopping at the Fontenelle hotel, is
also anxiously awaiting word from
his mother, Mrs. Charles E. Virden,
and his sister. Miss Ernestina, who
were due to arrive in Yokohama yes
terday.
Teachers Back From Europe
Mrs. Maud McPhail, 3309 Hickory
street, and Miss Janet Watson, a
s^Kicher in the Lincoln school in
.South Omaha, have returned from a
trip through France, Italy, Switzer
land, Belgium, Scotland and England.
A thrill of their trip was an air
plane ride from Zurich, Switzerland,
to Munich, Germany, made in four
hours, or eight hours less than It
requires by train.
Omaha Girl Dancer Appears Before
Home Audience After Nine-Year Tour
Miss Helen Kroner Happy to
Be Back After Dancing
in Many Countries.
It's a far cry from Omaha to the
uppermost peaces of the Andes—but
that's the trail over which an Omaha
girl was led by a little sliver loving
cup, a trail that in seven years time
wound its., way through a thousand
cities before it finally brought her
back home.
Nine years ago, in the spring of
1914, Miss Helen Kroner with her
partner, Harry Walker, was awarded
a silver loving cup by Mr. and Mrs.
Vernon Castle, then making a tour of
the country, and pronounced the best
dancer in Omaha.
It wasn’t much of a loving cup as
loving cups go, its value in dollars
and cents, perhaps, was insignificant,
but it marked a turning point in Miss
Kroner's life. She decided that she
would become a professional dancer
and attempt to make a name for her
self on the stage.
Two years later she went to New
York. And there started the long,
long trail of the little loving cup. It
took Miss Kroner to South America,
where for a year and a half she
toured every country and then re
mained another six months as solo
dancer at the National theater in
Buenos Aires. It took her across the
Andes mountains on a mule, in the
dead |f)f winter, because the railroad
between Chile and Argentina was un
able to operate as a result of moun
tain storms. It took her to Cuba,
Porto Rico, Panama and several Cen
tral American Countries, then finally
back to the United States and Canada.
After playing in practiciflly every
city in both North and South Amer
ica, this Omaha girl returned yester
day to make her first professional ap
pearance in the city of her birth.
'She appeared in two performances
at the Orpheum Sunday with her
partner, Antonio de Marco, and their
seven-piece orchestra. In this danc
ing act Miss Kroner used the name
of Nina de Marco.
"I’m happy beyond words to be
back in Omaha,” declared Miss Kron
er. "It seems strange that an Omaha
girl should not have an apportunity
to appear in her home town until
after she has played in almost every
town in the country boasting a first
class theater, but perhaps time lends
enchantment to the return, now that
I am here. I hope I’ll be able to
come back many times."
Miss Kroner haB been with De Mar
co since last January. They are com
pleting a tour of the Orpheum cir
cuit which took them to the Pacific
coast.
Miss Kroner has appeared in a
number of New York productions, in
cluding "Katinka," “Miss •Spring
time” and “As You Were,” and has
appeared with such stars of the stage
as T. Roy Barnes, Clifton Webb.
