STOCK GROUP

FOR the ensuing weeks OF Lne Ma
tional Theater stock season, Manager
Stephen E. Cochran announced yester-
day change in policy which will
bring guest stars to the National Thea
ter stage, supported by the roster of
the National Players.
AS the first attraction under the re-
vised policy, the guest star will be
Florence Reed in the most famous
characterization of her stage career, in
John Colton's play, "The Shanghai
Gesture" She has played this role
more than 800 times and in every
large city which has theatrical high
way. The engagement will be for the
week beginning Monday night, May 81.
In a distinguished career in the
theater, Florence Reed has played
many great roles, but critics are agreed
she brings to her menacing role in
Shanghai Gesture" matured talent.
Miss Reeds last appearance in
Washington was in the role Of Chris
tine in Eugene ONeill's extra-length
play, Mourning Becomes Electra"
Previously she was seen as Lady Mac
beth in the all-star revival Of George
C. Tyler, which Shakespearean produc-
ton employed the elaborate settings
of Gordon Craig. From 1907 to 1910
she was leading lady for E. H. Sothern.
playing Ophelia to his Hamlet, in If
I Were King" and in Don Quixote. Z"
Florence Reed is a native of Phila-
delphia and made her first appearance
on the stage at the Fifth Avenue
Theater in New York in April, 1901,
appearing in a monologue She sub
sequently played four months stock

Smith, Attorney"
Later she was starred in Girls"
Seven Days The Typhoon." The
Master in the House" and in THE
Tempest
One year ago Miss Reed made an
appearance at the Actors Fund Bene-
fit in Washington, merely to take a
bow and pay her respects to Daniel
Frohman. At that time she told
Manager Cochran she would be de-
lighted to appear some day with his
National Players. Recently MIR. Coch-

pictures we have ever seen. And

THE Informer,' will drag customers
to the box-office. We doubt If Victor
McLaglen's name has any particular
magic. We doubt If Liam O'Flahertys
name means much outside of the
public library. We doubt if the fact
that one or two members of the Abbey
Dublin Players. who played here this
Winter, are members of the cast will
getrmore than a handful of people to
see the picture.
Yet 1t Is something definitely to be
seen. It is corking good finland

1.-THE NFORMER" strikes us as be-
ing the first American picture
that might be a foreign picture. BY
that we mean that it is distinctive
and imaginative John Ford's direc-
ton, the way in which he, has titled
the camera into the mood of things,
the way in which he has quickened q
scene by the intrusion of appropriate
music-the lack of fierce makeup
the naturalness and ugliness of most
OF the characteristic of these lndl-
cate hnship to one or more Of those
foreign films which when they are
good are very, very and when they are
bad are horrid.
There Is an air of mysticism, an air
Of eeriness and vibrantly aching
hint Of the intrinsic goodness of all
mankind that sets this film apart from
its brothers. Even in its rough-and-
tumble aspect, its violent scenes and
its marching feet of the Black and
Tan it has that nostalgia quality of
the soil of Ireland, that essential
loyalty and nobility which has made
the plays of Ireland a unique adven-
ture in today's literature.
IF, AS the rumor goes, it is Robert
L Sisk who has been responsible for
this film, then we should like to ask
Mr.. Sisk for more A newcomer to
Hollywood, formerly affiliated with the
Theater Guild, Mr.. Sisk Is man of
courage, vim and vigor, and that he
has been able to make R-K-O see
the virtue of adapting such strong,
dramatic and yet totally uncinema-
like piece of writing to the movies is
q feather in his cap.
The choice of casting is something
else at which to marvel. Who would
have thought that Victor McLaglen,
q man usually associated with carous-
ing sea captains, swashbuckling
pirates and tipsy landlubbers, would
have been able to turn in a per-
Torrance. AS violent as ever, as
tough and brawny and stumbling in
his actions, he nevertheless adds to
his characterization a reality that he
has never attained beforehand in
his last painful moments he suggests

 New Britain, Bridgeport, Central, Meriden, and New Haven Hill- house are the topfighters as the scholastic teams of Connecticut wheel into the stretch with the opening of the Yale tournament a little less than a month away. These four, all of whom have splendid records, are now, the states class A top-fiights, although a few others, including Stratford, are close upon them, threatening to make the last four weeks of the season sizzle with action.
 The Central Connecticut slate is studied with scholastic basketball brilliants this week. Meriden, beaten for the second time this season by New Britain Saturday night but with enough victories bagged to assure itself, practically, of competition in the Yale tourna- ment, is slated for a tangle with a dangerous New Haven Conmer- cial team at New Haven today and Frida ynight is to meet Ranches ter at Meriden in a Central Con- necticut League game. The results of both games should show two more additions to the Barikow- mems already fat total of victories.

 An interested spectator one day this week as Massare went through his paces was Louis (Kid) Kaplan of Hartford, former world feather weight champion. Louis was im- pressed by Massare's speed and punch and also his work at close range. Like Louis, Charley Is a "puncher" inside; it was with that style of milling that he beat Winston here last week.
