Ordinary People

Plays, like movies, are usually
about exceptional people and I
can well believe that Mr.. Owen
Davis thought a play might be
written about ordinary men and
women, particularly one in
which virtue is triumphant, for
a change. He turned in a fairly
neat job in "A Saturday Night"
the plot of which seems to be
that a wife will not run off and
leave her husband if the fam
lily gets into enough hot water.
In the course of the Saturday
evening you discover that the
husband has lost his promotion
Ito the man VINO makes fairly
decent advances to the wife);
that the daughter has gone
speakeasy Summing with a bad
egg, and that the young son
has broken an ankle at basket
ball. Under the impact of the
disasters, the wife rejects her
half-formed plan to flee to Paris
with the attractive villain.
It is a nice, sober play, with
touches of comedy; ! was un-
able to understand the motives
animating the people, but that
didn't matter much. My only
regret was that Mr.. Davis
seemed to be about to say
something interesting about the
true nature of domestic life
and then let it slip away be.
cause his comedy managed to
end without it. However, as an
antidote to temperament, it
serves.
