" Theater's playbill there is a
group photograph of the young
players in Mr.. Dillingham's refresh
ingly tiresome revue, New Faces.
There they grin happily at you, from
Peggy Hoffenden to Hildegarde Halli-
day, Imogene Coca, Osene Whitehead,
Beverley Phalon, Sandra Gould and
Gordon Orme. When I looked, how
ever, for pictures Of two Of the most
entertaining actors in the revue I
found them absent. They happened
to be a couple of talented Negroes,
Miss Billie Haywood and Cliff Allen,
whose song, MY Last Affair" though
the hit" Of the performance, was
not enough, In the opinion Of Mr..
Elsie Janis, to entitle them to be
photographed with their companions.
New Faces" bare of scenery and
clothed in humor, is a long, long
revue, shooting at the Times Square
follies in their nests, and frequently
hitting them. Miss Hepburn is comi-
cally traduced in one of its burlesques
by Miss Nancy Hamilton, her under
study; and there are acute travesties
Of all the Pulitzer contestants, known
and unknown, at the first perform
ance of New Faces" Many stage
and cinema celebrities we're present,
among them the retiring Miss Tai
lulah Bankhead, who, in vivid fur
coat and a passion to be inconSpicu-
Gus, smoked cigarettes throughout the
performance. 1t was, perhaps. just
a girlish defiance of the fire ordi-
nances, and of her laW-abiding and
law-making father, Congressman
from Alabama; and her uncle, a
Senator from the same State. AS a
veteran of the forgotten Iroquois
catastrophe, I hope incidentally that
the fire-laddies assigned to the New
York theater are less careless back
of the proscenium than they are in
front Of it.

a glimpse of good humor In the mid

very easy to turn your laughs into
tears.
Such extremes are inevitable in the
course of a fiery career But an artist.

how gay, seldom lets his own person.
ality get the better of him. And cer-
tainly few opera singers can boast
that they have broken down because
of their good feelings.
Nine. JeritZa. therefore, must be
and is a very unusual person. When
we saw her give in to that joke we
were certain that she could do any
thing and get away with it.
The fact that she will play here
tomorrow in Friml operetta is proof
of this. If she can laugh at formal
concert she must have a very rare
sense of humor. Whether or not she
is allowed to give way to this in An
nina" remains to be seen. But we
hope it is. She is comedian at
heart as we'll as being a very serious
and popular artist.
Such a combination is rare. Rumor
has 1t that Lily Pons has what is
called swell" sense of humor, and,
of course, Lawrence Tibbett can tell
the best stories in the world. But
there are very many others whose
art is so great that as regular human
beings they rate as nothing at all
And you would never dream of SLAP
ping them on the back or going to
see Laurel and Hardy with them.
Advance word has it that Jeritza
is very excellent in her light opera
debut-that she has climbed down
neatly and willingly from her hi-hat
operates. We still think that she
makes an elegant Tosca with her
blond bobbed hair, and we still re-
member seeing her in "Tannhauser"
when she was a vision of delight.
However, we can't help but think
that we will like her even better in
"Annina." In this less formal me-
dium we are positive that her better
emotions will have play, and that
she can do, perhaps, more with her
audience
In spite of the fact that the
brothers Shubert don't like US, we
are glad to be able to wish Nine
Jeritza we'll in this first venture and
express our enthusiasm at the pros
pect Of seeing her tomorrow night.

to say; Men in White" in all its
serious showiness; the callow "Ah,
Wilderness the mildly incendiary
Peace on Earth" the cunning and
conservative "Dodsworth," and the
impressive yellow jack" marred
only by its affected simplicities. Here
was the towns best show, "She Loves
Me Not" establishing the invulnerable
chastity Of Princeton's undergradu-
ates; and Sailor, Beware" an i'm

would vote were he member Of the

idea that the theater should be

proved of Big Hearted Herbert" for

fancy little Shubert song, If we re-
member rightly, when suddenly she
broke down, not on account OF vocal
difficulties or because she was i'll, but
because she remembered good story,

any rate, that made her burst into
fits of laughter.
She told us afterward. when aware
that some of the Sterner, less forgiv-
ing members of her audience had sat
up cold and straight with horror, and
left the hall wagging their heads
that she felt a chill creep over her
when she realized what she had done.
Apparently, no one has ever, before or
since, burst out laughing in the mid
die Of formal concert. People may
have cried, or sneezed, or done little
light Whooping-but laughing-never!
For this reason We have ever since
been at Jeritzas feet. 1t doesn't mat
ter to US, as it did to so many, that
she played Tosca here with her own
blond bobbed hair. or that she lay
fiat on her stomach and did an aria
in distinctly unconventional and, we
should think, uncomfortable position;
it doesn't matter to us if she raised
Cain with an opera company, or had
a fit because the first Shubert
operetta that was prepared for her
was not to her liking. She could have
had 10 fits, three bad arias and no
hair at all, and we still would think
she was swell person.

 On the way north, the Norco encountered severe winds and icy spray which forced the motorship to put up in Taku Harbor late Sunday night and remain there until Monday morning, delaying it more than twelve hours. When it arrived in Juneau there was coat ing of ice on the Norco several inches thick.
