parent in "A Bill of Divorcement." ap-
peared last night at the Henry Miller
Theater in the sort of role in which
he won his previous successes here. In

Again Comedian, He Wins With Bright and Enter
tanning Play That Would Be Welcome Any Time

actor of uncommon deliberation. He act
the pace last night.
Mr. Harwood has shown how treat
ment may make an idea altogether with
out novelty quite engrossing. which is
equivalent <o saying that he did his job
with certain degree of skill. The pro-
fessional correspondent was his hero.
The ne'er-do-well who took the commits
sion even tore up the advance check a
few minutes after he had met the wife
who thought she wanted her intellectual
affinity in place of the husband she
really loved.
OF course there Is no mystery about
these premises to the most casual hus-
band. He knows that the correspondent
will admire the wife, but he Is just as
certain that she will prefer her husband
in the end.
Mr.. Harwood played his variation on
the theme with some occasionally witty
lines and generally sprightly talk. Mr.
Po!lock's easy and natural acting made
his participation in the play delightful
IN spite OF invariable slowness. Charles
Waldron made an amusing character Of
and must have copied his hair and mus
tache from one of the old photographs
of Lester Wallack.
Miss Pamela Gaythorne did not es-
cape the prevailing tendency to go
slowly but She achieved a certain degree
of naturalness. Then her strong per-
sonal charm did much to make plausible
the occasional faroical minutes of "A
Pinch Hitter" Miss Helen Stewart
brought out strongly the comedy of the
disappointed flapper.
"A Pinch Hitter" is a springtime de-
light in the theater and for that reason
a welcome contrast to some of the minor
calamities that have been spattering the
stage lately.
