and star in her own play, an interview
with her WAS sought not so very long
ago. Absolutely the only time she could
see the dramatic editor, who himself
undertook the assignment, was early in
the morning Of the day following the
opening. With the surface cars all tied
up, on icy sidewalks in the teeth Of a
blizzard the tired victim. who had worked
till past midnight, fought his way across
Manhattan Island and to the suthor's
cozy chambers. He sent in his card.
Presently the author-producer-sta ap-
peared scowling after a perusal Of the
not too favorable reviews in the morn
ing papers. She abhorred Newspaper
men in general at that moment; she
loathed those In the dramatic depart
ments in particular.
"Well?" she said. grimly standing In
the doorway. The storm-beaten scribe
stammered an apology for calling 30
early, and explained that the authors
secretaries, business managers, publ
city promoters, etc., had said it was tho
only time that week he could sec her,
and he wanted to get the interview in
that Sundays paper while 1t was news.
"What paper?" demanded the irats
author, ETC., etc. She was more Icy
than the frozen sidewalks, more battling
than the blizzard
THE Tribune" sobbed the frost
bitten scribe
II thought woman was coming up!"
Indignantly thundered the lady.
"No. I'm the dramatic editor" con-
fessed the guilty one, "and thought
it of sufficient Importance to come my
SELF"
He longed to sit near the blazing log
and thaw out a freezing foot or two.
"Oh," snarled the honored applicant
for public patronage, $50 you're the
dramatic editor, and you thought you'd
come up yourself?"
The offending visitor pulled OFF his
gloves in desperation and rubbed his
blue fingers. His hostess watched him
with a disappearing eye. Finally she
sat down. He slid onto the edge of a
chair.
"Well, what do you want me to says
she demanded.
"I-I-suppose you're tired" was the
asinine thing he thought and said.
mot at ALL" she denied, with rising
choler.
Then she sailed into the critics and
proved that their cavilings were "in-
competent, irrelevant and iEamaterial."
1t was excellent copy"
"Of course" she concluded, rising to
show that the interview was at an end,
"you cannot use anything I've said. 1t
wouldn't do for me to antagonize tho
critics. You understand?"
"But that's all you've given me.
madam" he bleated. What can
say?"
well, you might say that the opin-
ions the critics expressed were your
own, and that showed you how idiotic
they were"
"Yes, l might" he admitted, and
when he was outside her hospitable
oak, choking with injured pride in his
paper and profession, he added to the
unweary snow storm:
"And then, again, might not"
And he didn't.

Der where we had to live when we were
beginning on the stage-those dread
full theatrical lodgings in the West
Thirties? Why didn't horrible things
happen to us? Why didn't somebody
start studio club for US? l know just
why you want to direct that club"
So Grace Elliston, once star of the
"Lion and the Mouse" and leading lady
for Richard Mansfield "In Old Heidel-
berg" has given her enthusiasm and
her long experience in the theater to
the work Of the Young Women's Chris
tian Association.
"Since the war cut off opportunities
for study in Europe" she said, "the
students have poured into New York
by thousands. It is hard for them to
find suitable places to live. The Studio
Club tries to give them an attractive
clubhouse, where they can meet their
own friends and also be brought in
contact with distinguished artists in
the professions for which they are
studying"

AS We Were Saving
By Haywood Broun

delay the ardently desired ending
There is no doubt in our mind that
Barrymore has overleaped this diff
Guilty. He succeeds in making Richard
such an engaging figure that even
when the little princes are trundled
off into the Tower there comes from
the audience no wave of protest, but a
satisfied little chuckle to indicate that
good old Richard has turned another
neat stroke.
OF course, you may say, if you
please, that in making Richard so plau-
slble that his plans command the SYM
pathy and interest of the audience the
play becomes immoral. Well, it's moral
lesson was never profound, and the
subject and age are distant enough to
make reasonable assurance that nobody
will leave. the Plymouth determined
straightway to kill off all his male
relatives.
Robert Edmond Jones has had
hand in the breaking and bettering of
traditions which is a notable feature
at the Hopkins production of Richard.
His scenic scheme is almost as simple
az the most barren offering of Mr.. Ben
Greet, and yet he has succeeded in Gre
ating gorgeous stage pictures. His
marvellous picture of the Tower of Lon
don serves as a background for the
oct r,f ha -, L
about the base OF the Tower and YOU
have a throne room. Place a canvas
rock before the gate and there is your
battlefield. At no time has depth been
sacrificed to the exigences of scene
shifting. 1t may be remembered that in
most of the Shakespearean productions
of the last fifty years there was a reg
ular alienation between shallow scenes
played in front of a painted drop and
scenes in which the full stage was en-
pioyed. AS boy we remember being
puzzled and troubled by the fact that
Polonius always seemed to be living
in hallway.
The costumes by Jones are as sue
cessful as his scenery. If we were al |
lowed to see only one more stage pic
ture it would be a shrewd choice, we
think, to take the scene outside the
Tower of London in which John Barry
more, mounted on a white charger, re-
ceives the little princes.
Any number Of times during the play
we had feeling that poor Shakespeare
had started to write "Conscience does
membered that he had used that line in |
Hamlet"
Perhaps the most successful feat of |
John Barrymore in the play is the WOO
ing of Lady Anne. Certainly this gives
the actor a fearful task When Rich |
ard asks "Was ever woman in this
humor wooed? Was ever woman in
this humor won?" the natural answer
is "Of course not" Read the scene |
and you are almost sure to find it un-
convincing and impossible, but Barry
more masters it and makes it seem q
part of high truth. When we read it
before the play it seemed to us that
the only solution was to play it as
piece Of sheer hypnotism; to make it
something like Augustus Thomas's
THE Witching Hour''-a sort of "You
can't fire that revolver, you can't even
hold it" scene-but that is not Barry
more's method. Suppressing all dis
play OF apparent hypocrisy, he plays
his scene as straight and enormously
ardent love scene. He almost convinces
the audience Of his sincerity, and it is
not until Lady Anne has gone that he
lets loose his snssripg cynisism,
