And the play is so flndament- ally right that it can go on for cen turies as perhaps one of the finest and truest emotional portrayals the acting art has known.
 "To me. however. it's greatest charm will always be that it was the pioneer of modern thought on sex matters.

Given the greatest chance of his long and notable finn career, Dix comes through W tn a characterization that will rank high among the best per formances in the history of modern entertainment.
 Tn Irene Dunne, Radio Pictures has made the most sensational dis covery of the talkie age. Not only is her beauty and stage presence un- surpassabie, but her acting is notn- ing less tan inspired.
 I shall not compare her to Duse and BerHhardt, because neither ot them ever enacted such a variegated role as that of the finely1bred Sabia Cravat, "Eo in her sixties becomes a tragic I ucy Stoner.

[ Originally hailed as a friendly ges- ture toward a resumption of big three football competition-inter- rupted by the 5-y ear break between Harvard and Princeton-Yale's move now is regarded by some as a strategic move to strengthen it's own position.
 A Little Slap?
 Harvard students and Alumni feel that Yale's move was a direct slap inasmuch as Harvard always has placed it's contest with Yale ahead of those against any other competi- tor. The placing by Yale of Prince ton on a parity with Harvard as an athletic rival and elimination of the Yale-Harvard game as the annual closing feature for the eastern foot ball season Is a blow to Harvard's s pride.
 The Crimson, Harvard undergrad uate paper, said in part, "Yet this new policy though defensible, is not understanda ble--Yale is obliged to explain this action"
 Official Yale is resting on the state ment of director of athletics Gates. who said that the rotating schedule had been discussed with Harvard at every stage of negotiations, and ap- proved by Harvard officials" Stu dent sentiment appears to favor the change as a likely forerunner to re- sumption of big three competition on its former basis.
 No report has been made by the Yale student council of its confer ence with the Harvard council Sum- day and Monday, but it is expected that recommendations regarding fu- ture Yale-Harvard athletics will be forthcoming following the Yale councils return to New Haven and conference with University officials.
 O. K. With Tigers
 Princeton, naturally enough, is pleased with Yale's action. Failure of Princeton and Harvard to agree on the principle of a rotating sch- edule for the big three has been the chief factor in preventing a resump- tion of Harvard Princeton football relations. With Yale swinging the balance of power to Princton's side of the argument Harvard's stand has been weakened and Princeton believes Harvard eventually must &C., cept resumption of big three compe. tition on 0 basis of quality.
