PoLPS-"Journey's End"

Journeys End" the war play, yet
not war play, by r. G. Sheriff., which
had amazing success in London, and
which Gilbert Miller produced with phe-
nomenal results in this country, will be
presented at Polls Theater next week,
beginning next Sunday evening.
The scene is laid in the front-line
dugout in France, but the interest of
the drama lies not in war as war--a
series of melodramatie and unusual
eventS-but in war as expressed in the
reactions of the small group of soldiers
whom We see. These men are directly
in the path of the great German attack
of 1918, and they are tensely waiting for
the rush of overwhelming odds. Mr.
Sheriff opens their minds to the audi
ence, and with never a touch of senti-
mentality or pathoS, it is said. causes
the audience to live their lives mentally
and physically through three dreadfuls
days Of hope and fear. There is never
false note nor a bit of overlooking.
The stark reality of conditions and of
the men themselves is presented with
simplicity. directneSs and truth.
There is no delving In the common
place, no raking UP of mud, cutters or
sewers. There is a glory and a ro-
nance thrown about these men, but
always the glory and romance of actual
experience-more than synthetic by
product manufactured by dramatist
who is consciously theatrical
Heading the cast are Richard Bird,
Henry Stephenson, G. p. Huntley, jr;
Frederick Calling, Norman Pierce, Dan
Booker Charles ESdale, Arthur STEM
ming, Robert Nobel-all in all, a finely
effective ensemble in this notable pro-
duction.
