The essence of The Tines al

torial, addressed yesterday to
Commissioner Fenning, was, as
/ see it:
"Hot or cold, he goes out Of

Heaven help the poor stage
producer; he gets it coming
and going, he loses if he has a
flop on his hands and he loses
some of the time if he has hit.
Because stars are slaves Of
tradition like the rest of US, and
must have vacations when vaca-
ton time comes, some of Broad
ways best hits have folded up,
though assured of summer runs.

and absents himself in Europe.
Further, when it tours he won't

types of young stars and leads
whose services are so greatly
in demand that they are in
variably three shows behind
themselves and when a role
irks they consult File C and an
nounce palms for a new engage

Though it's pure bootleg on
the better known war plays such
as "The Big Parade" you'll get
a kick out of '"The Unknown
Soldier" at the Rialto if you
like war plays. The piece drips
with conventional hokum of the
war story; martial music,
pounding feet, desperate good
bys, exploding shells and SAN
culinary conflict. There isn't
an original thought within it's
folds, it pirates situations from
"The Big Parade" (the noon
whistle, the four buddy" types,
the girls dash down the road
after the marching trips) and,
further, its ending repudiates
the very situation around which

The two lovers discover the

two years in the original company in

the company for a time in Chicago
