MY DEAR SIR:

You are quite right In damning the
diction Of the actors in this play. They
deserve q producer Of the old fashioned
circus type. one will put the fear of God
into them with a little straight but un-
printable talk. The actors of the New
York stage arc chronic sufferers from,
speech iazinesa rarely 80 to the
theater that do not have my mother
tongue grossly insuited. ard the first
act at the Garrick Theater Monday
night quito capped the climax In down
at-heei and slipehod enunciari0. 7
personally wanted to get those actors
together and speak to them--shriek to
them---in language of the lowest pos
sible brow about their careless and
iiliterats manner Of handling English
speech. In this, the new direction
seems to typffy the modern tendency to
put all tho stress upon construction
and ensemble and situation, and to
give never a thought to the delivery OF
hines.
But you are quite wrong. pardon me-
In damnins the play. Here is a piece OF
work entirely different and apart from
anything else Milne has dome piece
In which he has attempted a serious
theme In a serious way. II stands in
marked and worthy contrast to his
other 50 much lighter work. that II
seems 60 some Of US at least) that Il
was highly worth while undertaking.
And seldom have I seen play that
builds so directly toward a last-act sit
uation and climax. The play of dimin-
ishing consequence from first act 20
last we have always with us. But tho
play OF Increasing dramatic consequence
is rare indeed. The Lucky One" GER
tainly builds In such a way that young
drarnatists would do well TO take few
lessons from IL for the great American
dramas they are always about TO write.
And you must admit tthough I think
you didnt) that Mr.. simonson's sets are
unusually fine. o. o.
