 Queen Bee" may be catalogued as q pleasing but minor work, an in-between comedy which does not scale tho heights or deserve to be dismissed without a hearing. There's would assay high enough in public opinion is q question which the pro- ducers must pass on.
 The first act IS tumble Of con- versation and the play seems to be going nowhere in particular The second act is an improvement. The third compares favorably with the standards of dramatic construction. The ascending curve of interest creation is so gradual from the thing must be done to punch it up if the entertainment is to compete with it's more vigorous rivals.
 Queen Bee" is the story of self centcred, high strung wife whose SeliiShncsS COmpelS her husband to remain in New York as a stock broker when his heart is out in the hills executing engineering projects.

 Of the cast which appeared last evening at Parsons theater, Hart ford, Ian Keith made perhaps the most favorable impression, He has a quiet role which suits his per sonality.

Young Joplin (Mo.) Pro
AnnexeS North. South
Open Event.
BY FRANK GETTY


NEW YORK, March 28-Horton
Smith. 2o-year-old professional Of
Joplin, Mo, did not need his sem
sational victory in the North and
South open tournament at Pine
hurst ednesday to be recognized
as the outstanding golfer of the
winter season.
Already Smiths victories over
the country's leading professionals
in the open championships q
Oklahoma City, Catalina Island,'
Pensacola, Fit. Myers, Fla, and La
Gorge had won him recognition.
But when the youngSter from
Joplin followed up his triumph in
the $4,000 La Gorce tourney by
winning the North-South open, he
set golf critics the world over to
asking if new star of the links
had arisen to eclipse Bobby Jones,
long regarded as having no equal
in the armament Of tee and haz~
ard.
Smith won out at Pinehurst by
shooting a 81 for his morning round,
winding up by leading Tommy Ar
mour. former amateur champion by
two strokes with a total of 287.
Golf, as played by professionals
in this day and age has reached a
stage where only consistency sur
prises. When a youngsters of 20,
who has travelled some $4,000 miles
and won more than $4,000 in prize
money, tops off such record by
winning both the La Gorce and
North-South opens, one can hardly
withhold from him the most ex-
travagant praise a game essentially
Scotch permits one to give.
