itself the storm centre OF criticism
today.
The first performance was given be.
fore small audience OF fashionable
folk, soc1ologists and dramatic critics
at the Fine Arts theatre last night.
The play IS the tragedy OF a girl in
a puritan family OF New England, who
becomes involved In a high school
love affair and finds she is about to
become mother. She dies as the
result OF an illegal operation at the
end Of the last act. The play is de-
signed to drive home the need OF sex

One morning paper refused criti-
cism in Its usual column but voiced
its condemnation on the first page,
where the crude facts OF war, d'sas-
ter, achievement and failure in high
places have their place" Another d.
clared "Cowards' to be terribly
frank" but "reverent in treatment
and free from sensationalism."
