morous commentary on the affairs Of

Legation.
Welcome to His ExceIlency." the
first full-length play written by
Douglas Griesemer, Washingtonian
who has turned out q number Of skits
and one-act plays, is possessed OF
enough comedy in lines and situations
that last nights audience remained
interested to the end, then gave the
author an enthusiastic ovation.
The plot revolves around the diff
ferences in thought and action be-
tween two career diplomats. secre-
taries in the American legation in
"Serbania," and the newly-appointed
ambassador, a straightforward and
robust business man from Des
Moines. Also there Is the Serbanian
Prince Paul. douhly involved, both
with the legation in some matter OF
an oil treaty and with the ambassa-
doris attractive daughter TO provide
the love theme. Much of the comedy
is provided In those scenes wherein
the ambassador attempts rather
vainly to instill some American COM
mon sense in his diplomatic" sec
retaries.
Mr.. Griesemer is fortunate In hav-
ing the Roadside company present his
play. The modern comedy" cast OF
this group does finished job and the
players carry themselves with more
assurance than they did in their pre-
vious Offering. Denis E. Connell is
truly fine in his role as the ambas-
sador. This is the fattest part in the
piece, Mr.. Connell seldom being off,
stage, then not for long, and a lions
share of both speech and situation Is
given to the ambassador. Virginia
Rand is very attractively his daughter

played smoothly and well by Marvin

Betty Rice.
Harold weinberger has been suc-
cessful in what probably was a difi-
cult job Of directing because Of one
weakness Of the play, its tendency to
drag whenever the characters are
given speeches which are too long to
sustain interest. Too often the con-
versation on the stage almost diverts
from dialogue to monologue. The
plays merits, however. certainly over
balance what little fault can be found.

CENTRAL VICTORY
IS NOT GLORIOUS
One Brief Squirt Nets 7-6
Win Over Washington
and Lee High.

- ENTRAL HIGH SCHOOLS
foot ball eleven today held a
7-to-6 decision over Wash
ington-Lee High of Ballston,
Va, but there was little in that vic
tory to cheer followers of the Mount
Pleasant band, which swept to the
interhigh championship last year.
The Central team enjoyed one brief
squirt, getting off to a flying start in
the first quarter when Capt. Don
Dunlap heaved a 25-yard pass to
Paul Whedon, end, who scampered 80
yards for a touchdown. Dunlap
place-kicked the extra point.
Thereafter Central was constantly
on the defense as the little Virginia
eleven plowed up and down Wilson
Stadium in a vain attempt to over
come the Mount Pleasanters' lead. In
the third period the little Generals
scored when Orlando Birch shot a
35-yard pass to Billy Bragg over the
line for touchdown, but Ward Bos-
wells place-kick attempt for the ex-
ira point was blocked by Charlie
Jones, Central center Washington
Lee had plenty of scoring chances
thereafter but failed to capitalize
though Central always was kept on
the defensive.
