ton shall have metamorphosed him as time
and evolution have developed the man OF
today from the savage of the past. Against
this super-smart youth the author pits
fascinating, sinuous young woman. The
girl Is determined that the youth shall
marry her. The youth Is decided that he
shall not. The challenge and Its def are
dropped fairly at the rise of the curtain.
Thence on until the close of the third act
the funny warfare is waged.
Several subsidiary elements add to the
enjoyable measure of the comedy's main
humor. These minor elements are offered
mostly through characterization Several
of these amusing personages stand out
more boldly than the others. The average

believes that most women want, is shown In
Tanner young fellow of force. of shrewd-
ness wit, discernment In young poet.
gentle, dreamy submissive. idealistic, Shaw
aims to present the type of manhood that
woman thinks best suited to bachelorhood.
In a septuagenarian, who has lived all his
life in an atmosphere of absolute conven-
tionalisrn the author offers the foe to
progress. In Ann Whitfield, the girl who
seeks and eventually wins young Tanner

comedy by Bernard Shaw. The piece. with
Robert Lorraine Its principal player, will be
transferred to Washington direct from the
Hudson Theater New York. where it has
been IN uninterrupted service since late last
summer. when 1t was produced there with
unusual success. Shaw's place as a Jester
paramount is too well established to require
comment. In Man and Superman" this
subtle joker Is said to have struck his
sprightliest mood. Disregarding such of the
comedy as is satirically philosophic, the
play is really nothing more nor less than a
screaming skit In three acts. Shaw starts
out with the premises that 1t Is a wonaans
prime mission in life to get married as fast
as she can, and mans TO remain single as
long as he may. To show how true and
funny this Is, he makes a dozen or more
very human people of smiddle-ciass life to-

most attractive type of youth, keen, good
looking, smartly groomed and ultra modern
