Under Pressure" a new comedy by
Sydney Resented. crammed with in
terest, amusement and stimulus, was
given at the National Theater last
night. The President and Mrs Will
son saw it and seemed pleased. and so
did the rest of the audience. The play
is delightfully."- staged and is rendered
by a cast which includes a good many
clever actors, some of whose names
arc very familiar.
In manner and substance the play
has many of the marks of thigh COM
cdy." Mr.. Resented aims at brill
liancy of line. and the development of
4 thoughtful theme through the inter-
play of amusing characters. He sur
rounds his scene with the social dig
ritv of wealth and fashion. II he
leads his characters to do and utter
things that seem a bit fantastic
rather than real, it is only fair satire
on the tendency of the times TO break
desperately away from convention for
the sake of new sensations.
The theme is nothing in the world
but the ancient and ever new one of
the way of a man with a maid. Fred
Niblo is the man. one of these super
confident blarneyers who wins head
long way to the heart. or. at least, the
good graces of every woman who
crosses his path. Violet Heming is
the girl whom he is possessed with
the idea of possessing. She has gained
with her complete and perfectly use
less" education the sturdy desire of
the modern woman for independence,
and she is just determined that she
will not be so weak as to yield to the
appeal of the mans dominant person.
atty. There is the drama.
The height of the conflict and the
sensation of the play arrive when the
man invades the privacy of the girls
bOudoir at night to carry out the idea,
which he has previously announced to
her, of compromising her and thus
compelling surrender. Does this smack
OF old-tlme villainy? To be sure, but
this young man is no villain, but
merely n modern rebel against conven-
ton. The girl turns the tables on
him. thoroughly disconcerts him, and
presumably teaches him lesson, but
in the next act he turns up debonnair
rs ever and the lady's resistance ends
from sheer fatigue.
Mr.. Resented takes full advantage
OF the modern privilege of frankness in
discussing sexual matters. and while
there is no longer any question of
shocking an audience. it is still pos
sible for lines 10 be distasteful, and
some of the lines in Under Pressure"
are of that sort.
As for the acting, Fred Niblo Is the
ideal man for the part. and his per-
tormance is beyond criticism. Miss
fleming Is charming beyond words,
but does not quite rise to the emo
tional occasion of the climax. Miss
'lilda Spong gives a capable portrayal
If widow of much tact and expert
cnce. Others who do we'll are Zeffie
Tilbury, Laura Burt and Eileen Will
son. Arthur Laceby and Albert Gran
in the chief male comedy roles sue
coed in amusing. but are not quite
suitably cast.

You're in Love- was the interest
ing declaration which filed the Be-
lasco last evening with a host that
captivated to the seductive tunes,
lovely women. and glorious dancing,
which makes this Offering a triumph
in musical plays.
1t is a rollicking example of the
kind of musical piece the American
public likes best on the stage. Every
body went home humming and smil-
ing, which is the test of a musical
entertainment. One song hit follow
ed another all evening-not thigh
brow" but pleasant and rythmical
measures. combined with lyrics that
are bright and pretty, principals who
sing with contagious merriment, and
settings artistic and beautiful.
The principal waltz number You're
in Love-" and several of the more
fetching airs, have long ago been
waited hitherward. They have been
buzzing in our ears for months past.
and now they come to US in the pro-
duction in which they first saw light.
You're in Love" is a tantalizing and
persuasively haunting measure for
pretty Marie Flynn, who also sings
"Loveland" with rare grace. Her
song, I'm Only Dreaming was
given as she swung dreamily out
over the heads of the audience on
the ships boom, and her dainty pink
slippers were captured by a couple

tory

Moore's Gnrden-"The Angel Fac
tory
A steady stream OF motion picture
enthusiasts filled Moore's Garden The
alter yesterday. where the handsome.
dark-eyed Antonio Moreno is being
pictured in an unusually entertaining
film drama entitled The Angel Fac
tory"
1t deals with a little East Side girl
whose father is a drunkard and whose
mother is slattern. She meets and
falls in love with a rich young man,
played by Moreno, whose hobby is
his work as superintendent of a Set
Element House in New York's slums.
She is a girl in whom the many fine
qualities have been struggling against
the environment in which she has
been forced to live. The story works
up TO a thrilling climax when the
hero and heroine are held for the
murder OF Tony Podessa. leader of
a gang of toughs and ''tango-gun-
men," who covets the girl and hates
the man. She confesses that it was
she who fired the fatal shot, but a
splendid surprise twist is introduced
here through which her innocence is
established, the truth is learned and
both are acquitted.
The program for the remainder Of
the week follows: Sessue Hayakawa
in THE Call of the East" on We'd
nesday. Thursday and Friday: Jack
Gardner in Men of the Desert" on
Saturday. Usual comedy, news and
educational films are also shown daily.
