Hodge Would Make
Plays Appear Real
Actor Says a Grexsn Amount
of Exaggeration Is Neces-
sary on Stage.

William Hodge, the star. cares very
little about his collaboration. William
Hodge, the author. The programme for
his latest vehicle, 1.-THE Guest of Honor"
proves this, for while the leading page
announces that Lee Shubert presents
William Hodge" only the last page has
an obscure line, "Play written and
staged By Mr.. Hodge," thus providing
the documentary evidence necessary TO
back up all startling statements.
In the past it may be recalled. he
even has hid the light of his typewriter
under the bushel of such a name as
Lawrence Whitman" and when he was
confronted with this evidence in his
dressing room the other night he made
clean breast of everything.
"All I care about" said Mr.. Hodge,
sis that the public shall see me in some
thing suitable and form fitting. Like
the potentate who did not care who
wrote the country's laws so long as he
administered them / do not give a rap
who knocks out the play; but II nobody
else provides the right play then must
dash It Off myself
by the right play 1 mean an hon
est, human piece, which the public pre-
fers to what / call dramatic lie-a
work false to humanity and ultimately
to the box office. BIZ. an honest hui
man play is not necessarily what Is
termed "a naturalistic play by college
classes in the drama. who turn them
out by the carload. One OF the first
principles Of true playwriting Is that
you cannot be any more natural than
an old daguerreotype. Why? For the
simple reason that the naturalness Of
daily life will not carry across the foot
lights, will not have the unity and per.
spective and emphasis of character nee
essary to make q play more interesting
than the family's Sunday dinner.
"a certain amount of exaggeration
on the stage is requisite---to achieve the
appearance of reality, which then truly
becomes realer than real This rule APP
| plies both to the playwright and the
| actor, who must know just how much
to heighten up, so that the lines and
| the business go to the mind. the eye
and the ear of the audience as natural
