a suspicious alacrity the suggestion
made recently in this column that bad
plays might be prevented If jury OF
drama critics were 10 pass upon them
before rather than after their public
performance. "Of course" Mr.. Shubert
writes in letter of welcome, Il can
think of some slight handicaps which
We would find necessary to overcome.
There might be an insuperable differ
ence of opinion. Let us assume that 10
critics, after attending one Of these
previewS, wrote such dissimilar notices
that the producer was left in confusion"
Mr.. Shubert is right in his SUPPOSE
ton, and 1 withdraw my constructive
hint After reading the variating judg-
ments of the reviewers Of That's the

from the newspaper experts. The Eve

Telegraph expressed some graceful aches
and pains, but Robert Coleman of the
Mirror proclaimed it as a masterwork.
The Herald Tribune denounced it as
dull, and the Sun spoke of it in temper
ate approval.
Mr.. Shubert asked me yesterday TO be
member of jury of drama critics to
sit upon and adjudge the merits of his
entertainments previous to their presen-
tation in the New York show market.

"In former days." says Mr.. Waldron,

lions. A very slight plot which he may
have outlined in the morning and on
which he may have started to shoot In
the afternoon might have suggested q

at the Mack Sennett studios, for exam
pie, humorists sit at their typewriters
like any normal group Of picture writer's.
They construct their comedy stories In

the dialogue that Is to produce the

vidually and thoroughly worked out.

4 N extremely versatile young man Il

cident," at the Rialto Theater.
"Young Doug" as he Is popularity
known, is accomplished in painting and
carving, has written poems. and recently
has written articles for the magazines
which were published.
Undoubtedly the scope Of his educa-
ton had much to do with his abilities.
He was educated in New York, Los An
geles, London and Paris. In Paris, he
studied painting and sculpture for three
years, and for his own pleasure still
pursues these arts.

he would make a suggestion to his
father or the director. When the sug-
gestion was accepted, a check would be
forthcoming.

"HIS weeks medal for superior
acting is hereby pinned upon
Pat O'Brien because of the eX-
cellence of his Characterization
in 1.-The Up and Up" A player
of few achievements and little less re-
noWn, he surprised the students OF the
drama Monday night by his faultiess
impersonation of a phlegmatic book
maker engaged in betting and ro-
nance. The comedy itself is nutty,
uneven recital of incidents in the
gamblers life, now heavtng with ag1ta-
ton, then going to sleep. But II is rlcn
in sayory underworld roles and 1t Is TO
be filed among the better OF the $3.50
things. 1t is possible that Mr.. o Brlens
casting and that, assigned to other imi-
tations, he will win no medals. How
ever, If the playwrights ever need a
man to do a good job as dumb, third
rate gambler they may hire Mr.. O'Brien
with such impunity as my Recommended
ton affords.
In "The Up and Up" a continuance
by the lady author of THE Subway EX-
press" Mr.. O'Brien is fellow named
Curly, a child of the tenements risen 10
local eminence as q go-getter In the
betting racket. He has no thoughts
save of himself and his own progress
to riches. Unlike the usual stage gam
bier, he is not noble man, but traitor
often recreant to honesty. He fixes"
horse races, corrupts politicians and the
police force and trampS with rubber
heels over all who try to impede him. In
q jumbling way he Is bookWorm as
well as a bookmaker. He is fond OF
biography and likes to read OF Napoleon
and other titanic wagerers. He does
not drink, he does not fiirt and his only
vice is chewing gum. He has inherited
vague ideas of integrity from his Irish
forbears. When the girl miss Sylvia
Field appears, his icy eyes water with
emotion and he sets out to win her with
all the cold ardor of an 1mpreSSloned
shark. These characteristics are Illus
trated by Mr. O'Brien without an error
of trick or affectation. The play de-
ponds upon his thoughtful and expert
study, and upon the heating scenes
wherein the cops raid his gambling
place. That violence, suggest, is good
theater," and worthy of glimpse in
case you are amused by the minor
drama.
