The social values OF the comedy are so
vague as to make this slice OF West
chester life almost unacceptable. The
society which "Dulcy' revealed was
made up of scenario writer's, advertts-
ing agents and manufacturers Of phony
pearls.
The comedy was admirably acted.
Miss Fontaine secured some of her tech
meal ease at the cost or naturainess. but
her virtuosity in initiating Laurette Tay-
Tor was wonderful. Howard Lindsay
made the "scenarist,' as he insisted on
being called, most amusing. and Gilbert
Douglas. Wallis Clark and John Wesley
were all effectively siilful. Only Greg
DRY Kelly, with his contracted features
and his faint staccato tones, seemed all
together unhappy. But 1t is impossible
to cast gloom. as its heroine might
have said, over "Dulcy." The little COM
edy is altogether too happy and gay.
