Otis Skinner Coming In
 "Sancho Panzo" Next Week
Distinguished Actor Said To Be Best Upon
 American Stage To Play Part Of Squire

does in this play, on the eccentric Don's shrewd and human squire, Sancho PaTza. One of the foremost of English critics said long ago that if Ceryantes' masterpiece ever was brought to the stage in a really sue cessful version, the interest would focus not on the pallid, visionary Don, but on Sancho Panze who is closer to our everyday human nature. >
 Otis Skinner probably is the best actor on the American stage to. play Sancho. Indeed, not since his memor- able success as Col. Philippe Bridau in 1.-The Honor of the Family - has this sterling actor been provided with a role that forecasts as fine an oppor- tunity, as the Spanish square.
