A Play For Hayes

Robert Montgomery-to be spe-
cific-has a sketchily drawn role
Of a wild and adventurous youth
with a gypsy trait for rambling
adventure. AS a character on the
printed page his itching feet and
rowing spirit I have no doubt are
fully explained with the motiva.
ton clear. On the screen he is
flimsily etched and so his emo
tional scenes with Helen Hayes
are neither as sweeping in appeal
or conviction as they might be.
Some will call it miscasting but
the fault struck me as the au.
thor's.
Helen Hayes is always worth
watching and women will proba-
bly, cry over her heart troubles in
''Vanessa." I just couldn't squeeze
out a tear. Best I could do was
q misty eye once.
The stage play that is crying
for Helen Hayes as a screen star
is the current Broadway hit, "The
Old Maid" This is the story of
repressed love, so tender and mov-
ing. that graced with the Helen
Hayes art it would be certain to
well up an ocean of tears. Helen
Menken is playing the stage role
and doing beautiful job of it..
But give me little Miss Hayes in

author Walpole in condensing his story to

the censor or neglected character and back
