There is n disquieting lack Of phrases
in that extraordinarily intelligent play
"Thc Gentle Wife" The familiar
terms assimilation" celebration, "
brotherhood" are not there to lull the
tragedy as they have in so many other
plays of this theme Where other plays
have carefully, warily stressed the
structure over the abyss of misundcr-
standing with conscientious reaffirma-
tons about our common humanity and
our fundamental alikcnesses, Rita Well
man tears away this elaborate struct-
ure as so much debris. Our alikenesses
may be taken for granted they are in
oscapable from the very form of living
The heart of the mystery, if it is ever
to be made plain, lies in the exploration
Of our differences.
The circumstances of "a Gentle
Wife, need not be counted typical-the

" no Is George Spelrin?

Programme hounds with scrap books
filled with the records of their the
atregoing activities may have noted
with curiosity the frequency with which
they read the name of George Spclvin.
George is never walking Broadway in
search Of a job it seems.
But there arc stranger things than
that about George Spelvin. 1t is whis-
pered that he is able to appear in diff
ferent plays that are running at the
same time. 1t is rumorcd that he has
been seen in New York and in San
Francisco on the very same night.
You see George only lives in the pro
grammcs of Winchell Smiths plays.
In other words, he is doublc-a
double being when an actor plays two
parts and likes one less than the other.
The one he likes least is called George
Spelvn.
George Spelvin was born at re-
hearsal of "That Affair at Boyd's" His
father, in manner of speaking, was
William Gillette, who upon finding that
an actor had to play two parts, said
call yourself George Spelvin." Later
Winchell Smith, producing "The For
eune HUNTER also had need of an extra
name. Remembering his friends chris
tening party, he adopted George Spell
VIM into his largo and growing family
of plays.

with these two, as with all other human
beings, the problem is that of the
eternal loneliness of the human soul,

strong probability that he will lose out.
The case Of David, who brought his
Gentle wife to live among the ortho-
dox virtues and naive crudites Of his
own people, was merely that eternal
difference. But in the stripping down
Of life to It's essentials this ordinary
difference was complicated with b
deeper estrangement 1t lay in what
each expected of life.
The tragedy Of this play is not that
David Davis is Jew outragc d-de-
ceived by his Gentle wife and finally
goaded to murder by Gentle scorn.
The passions which wreck this man and
his wife serve merely to light up the
impasse which not even their great sur
viving love can surmount. It lies in
the racial habits Of his soul, which ulti-
mately demands from him life only on
it's own peculiar terms. The Hebraic
austerity which would deny the desire
of the flesh obscurely makes him re-
gard his love for his golden-h haired,
life-enraptured wife as a pagan sin.
The centuries of rigid obedience to the
harsh Judaic code drive him to demand
of himself the payment of the blood
penalty he has incurred. The tribal
wanderings and ghettos of his past
