A new artistic enterprise. or rather a

An interesting, atypical and most
delicately adjusted play by A. A. Milne
was thrown into considerable con-
fusion at the Garrick Theater last
evening, where the directors of the
Theater Guild had hit upon it as the
This was "The Lucky One,' an un-
expectedly acrid comedy to issue from
the author of such pretty frolic as
The Romantic Age" such an amiable
episode as The Dover Road"
1t is an untwinkling comedy about
the hostility which life breeds between
two brothers and it is play of such
nice and peculiar balance that the
slightest imperfection in the casting of
it is bound to throw it out of focus.
With such a task before it the guild
directors came to grief in their choice
of the actor to play the leading role
1t was their job to find young actor
of such persuasive charm that it should
weather even the considerable hos
tility which is deliberately built up in
the audience against the lucky one"
Now it so happens that Dennis
King is rather wooden comedian
with Il rasping voice. If he fourl-
dered helplessly through the undeni-
able difficulties of the first two acts
and was not happy at all until the
play flared UP in the fine third act
II should be admitted cheerfully
enough that Leslie Howard simply
hasn't time to play pieces as fast as
the nimble Milne writes them, and
that, after all, no one could really
play The Lucky One" satisfactorily
except that most popular of all
juveniles, II. r. III. the Prince of
Wales.
THE Lucky One" is an interesting
and admonitory study in every dav

Pamela, the crack golfer, the pride Of
the county in polo, the darling of his
family, the hope of the Foreign Office
and the shining contrast TO his older
brother, Bob, who turks unhappy in
the background. Bit by bit the audi
ence is betrayed into resenting Gerald
and sharing Bob's smoldering hatred
of him. And then at last. when the
two brothers are brought face to face
and the curtains that hang before their
hearts are, at the caprice of the play
wright, lifted for all to see, it becomes
apparent that Gerald, in everything
that matters. in all the essential quail

courage, is ten times the man his
brother is. 1t is a surprising and gen.
