NATIONAL PLAYERS-"Seyen Keys

For the final week of their Spring
and Summer season of "a weeks the
National Players will offer George NJ.
cohan's daddy of all mystery-come-
dies, Seven Keys to Baldpate," next
week, beginning Monday night.
Cohan wrote this play from the
story by Earl Derr Biggers, one-time
newspaper man who graduated into
he fiction field. The play is peopled
with unusual types. all keenly and
satirically drawn. Some of the fore
most Of these are an author, a sophis-
ticated divorcee, lunatic who
imagines he is a great historic figure,
a sheriff and others of more conven-
tional mold.
Into a deserted lodge in the noun
;ains this motley group infiltrates.
Baldpate Is the name of the lodge
and there is supposed to- be but one
key to it. This is given the author
by the owner. Yet nearly a dozen
individuals gain access to it at vari-
Gus times through night made
grimly forbidding by the introduction
of a win6 and snowstorm.
Seven Keys" was one Of Cohan's
most successful plays. Its run in New
York went into a year and through
road tours and stock engagements far
beyond the dreams of its authors.
This farewell production Is distinct
iy play for public taste. since the
public here picked it by balloting on
forms supplied by the management.
