New York city has $1,000 tene-
ment houses In which 10000 peo-
pie live, because there is no other
place for them TO live. OF the
100000, 80 per cent live In fire
traps, according to official report.
There is, however, a silver lining to
this cloud, from n point Of view.
When tenement houses burn down,
and tenants burn up, the landlord
gets his insurance. II the law for

King
At National

A T A time such as this when the
" theater is looked upon by the
~ masses as a place of enter
n tainment, and the pendulum
of public interest is swinging
between politics, economic problems,
sociological themes and other brain
racking discussions which reflect
modern life. if seems rather timely
that reflection of the events of yes
terday-clad in all the panoply of
warriors, the Silken gowns of court
and the clash of Steel-comes as
beacon to indicate an emancipation
from themes that are neither con-
ducive to the advancement of dra-
matte art nor healthful to the COM
munity at large.
With the return of the historic,
costume and romantic drama to pop
ularity it augurs well for the future
of the spoken word and indicates that
the theater still remains as an in
tegral element in our national culture.
One of the most potential contribu-
tions to the American stage during
this season is Richard of Bordeaux"
with Dennis King in the name part,
at the National Theater tomorrow
night. This play by Gordon Daviot
has been running for over a year in
London and graphically reveals a
more intimate story of the turbulent
career of Richard II of England than
any composition heretofore presented,
as it deals with the youthful years of
this monarch and delicately etches
his struggles to secure peace in Eng
land with France, Scotland, Ireland
and the other belligerent countries
then on the verge of war: the an
tagonism to his efforts by his uncles,
the Dukes of Gloucester, Lancaster
and York, together with the crafty
Vaccinations of the Earls of Derby,
Arundel and Nottingham, led to civil
war; the abdication of Richard, and
the subsequent ascent OF Henry, Earl
of Derby. to the throne. thus becom-
ing Henry " of England. This entire
page of history is covered with the
authoritative knowledge of one who
is thoroughly familiar with the sub
ject in hand; the result is that an
impelling story is presented graphic
ally, with a wealth of romance. color
and action consistently interviewer,
and told with fluency of speech that
is neither archaic nor pedantic.
The unanimous verdict OF approval
from the accredited reviewers attest
to the exquisite costuming of this
presentation and the magnificence OF
the entire production.
AS Richard of Bordeaux" son of
the fighting Black Prince, Dennis
King has made the dominating sue
cess of his entire career. He gives
one of the most fascinating and
scholarly artistic performances today
in this country, and one that places
him among the great actors upon
the American stage. Others in the
cast include Henry Mollison, Hugh
Buckler, Montague Love, Olive Reeves
Smith and Charles Bryant.

la Emma Goldman, Mr.. Cochran
prefers his theater to be filled with
theater and is never so happy as
when George M. Cohan, Joe Cook or
Ethel Barrymore are preparing their
many pound looks.
THE National Players leading lady
this year will be Ruth Abbott, a
golden-haired heroine, who is said
to be queen by several rights. Mr..
Cochran was so stirred by her one
time gesticulations in THE Middle
Watch that he tried then to sign
her on the dotted-only to learn that
richer maestro had sneaked one
ahead of him. Since then he has
heard even better things of her work
and so. with a flowing smile and
wink and nod and a hint of "you
wait and see," Miss Abbott is well
coined into the ranks of those who
do much more than merely serve"
You probably will also be pleased
to hear that such veteran troupers as
"Addie" Hibbard, Freddie Sherman
and Raymond Bramley will be in the
fold again, and that Kathryn Givney
and Burke Clark have also said Yes"
to the National Players invitation.
We saw Miss Givney only recently on
a Manhattan pavement. and she
looked slim and sleek and well pre-
pared to get back into harness again.
Well. it's another new season and
we wish them well. There's some
thing traditional now about the
cherry blossoms and the National
Players. We couldn't very well afford
to do without either of them.
ONE of the last direct-from- Broad
way offerings of the season
should also be one of the best.
Richard of Bordeaux" which comes
to the National tomorrow night, is
said to be not only faithful portrait
OF its times, but play that is warm
with emotion and human interest as
well. The fact that it is Costume
play should apparently neither deter
you from going nor cause you woe
once you have got to the theater. Ac-
cording to those who know, it is rich
with fancy as well as fact, and so
nicely played that you couldn't ask
for more. Dennis King, once a stall
