night was barely this side of trC
This week the kudos go to
Givney. Calender and Hamp-
den. These three are monen-
tously and fundamentally good,
markedly Miss Givney, who
touches off a pile of explosive
comedy as q slangy soubrette
whose histronic aim is to do
the Greeks or, lacking that OPP
portunity, some heavy sugar
daddy. This is Miss Givney's
first homer of the season,
through no fault of her own
but because the opportunity
lacked.
Hampden has the long, long
pull, many words, many appear
ances, and for all-around con-
sistent performance, this is his
weeks show. Calender does q
sudden mailman in. the last act
that afflicts the audience with
leaping temperatures.
John Warner is docile save
in q shouting episode. Miss
Lane, excellent in little. Ditto
Miss Tierney. Phelps overplays
and mugs too much. Arthur
Rhodes, head of the class in the
support.
1.-THE Last Warning" recites
the tale of q Snowman who
wants to reopen a spooky
theater. jinxed because of the
disappearance of its former
manager who is thought MUIR
dered. He will produce "The
Snare" the same play that
hoodooed his predecessor, and
he viii, by the gods (pro-
nounced. gads) produce it with
the same castl This is in the
day before Equity, which asso-
citation would tolerate broken
contracts If the troupers were
subjected to q 1.-THE Of the
things that happen here. The
fealty of these harassed actors
In 1.-THE Snare" is e wonderful
thing. Some of them are near
ly killed, others are scorched by
pyrotechnic candles, the car
casses Of others are distributed
in the remoter reaches Of the
theater and In general there is
much hell to pay.
Yet they all stick. Such was
the binding power Of the con-
tract in those days. Even Nc
Hugh, the manager, declined to
be more than slightly added
when q sandbag, approximating
the weight Of q small office
safe, hurls from the flies and
crashes through q table q foot
in front Of him.
/ wish Mr.. Hampden no i'll
luck. For the remainder Of the
week he should be certain that
the same individual who Oper-
ates the curtain, 4doesn't drop
the bag. His aim is too, too
variable.
Well, anyway, the grandest
assortment Of mysterious things
happen, including the stomping
about Of the cat with the green
eyes and the ascent on the wall
Of the only tarantula in Wash
ington, which looks like a turtle.
There are also the uniformed
policeman in the aisleways dur
ing presentation of ''The Snare"
They are there to guard against
what comes under the head OF
"untoward events" Warner
and Calender both do Red
Oranges from the upper boxes.
And q great deal else happens,
all making for an evening of
mad fun, spiced with thrills and
suspense.

 Leo Woltson, New York city lawyer. conducted direct attack on Bnblck. during which the latter gentleman writhed uncomfortably in his seat.
 "We ought not 10 accept Rabbi Wise's resignatlon,' insisted Wolf son, "Mr, Bublck has made it im- possible for us to deal fairly with this problem. He has treated this problem dishoncstly"
 T object Mir. Lipsky," cried Bub- lick, "I object to the word dishon- est'y l insist that he withdraw it."
 "All right" agreed Wolfson, q withdraw the word dishonesty, but meant it anyhow"

 When Rabbi Wise was told Of the action of the two committees he eX- pressed himself as feeling that his 1 withdra wal "would have marked the most grieyious hour Of his life, not 1 because of hurt that would have suffered, but because it would have involved d grave impairment of opinion and utterance which is ts- sential 10 Zionism."
 Those men who had battled all day to present their respective views on the matter, and who showed the strain of the tenseness of the day then listened 10 Rabbi Wise deliver speech in which he declared his impairable loyalty as Jew and Zion. tst, adding, "I could not and did not depart from the traditional attitude Of the synagogue towards the doc trines of other faiths"
 Whatever I may have been able to do In the past whether for Amer iCan Israel or for the cause of Zion ism," he continued, has been made possible, not because of my specia gifts or powers, but solely because Israel's faith is my faith, because the people of Israel are my people because my will has been and is with the last atom of my strength to deepen the faith of the Jew in the soul of his fathers faith"
 The remainder of Rabbi Wise'E speech was in the nature Of reas, surance Of his continued interest ir things Jewish, and in particular his devotion to the cause of Zion and the United Palestine Appeal.
 At the conclusion of his speech funds were solicited for the United Palestine Appeal. and by II o'clock S75, ,000 had been contributed to the United Palestine Appeal.
