the reigning sensation Of Longacre

his hat of TO Miss Bergner In belief
that she could counterfeit any role

NEWSPAPER reviewers of the drama
have been referred to as skele-
tons at a feast, intent upon writing,
with bony fingers, wisecrack epitaphs
for the theater's tombstones. 1t is the
belief of most playwrights. players and
producers that the critics." as they
describe them, are a band Of Abhorr-
sens whose grisly business 1t Is to
sever the stages head from its shoul-
ders. Evidence is now at hand to
refute these accusations. From an
advertisement Of Escape Me, Never"
it is learned that the reviewers are
not the death watch they are sup
posd to be. Rather are they impas-
stoned glee singers harmonizing to-
gether in hymns of praise for Miss
Bergner.
She is fiery" says Lockridge Of the
Sun. and Bolton of the Morning Tele-
graph estimates her as magnificent"
Sobel Of the Mirror DEGREES that she
is great" and Atkinson Of the
Times announces that she Is "incom-

Of the American, Miss Bergner is
poignant" and in that of Mantle of
the Daily News she is haunting"

Revue Coming Here.
WHEN "As Thousands Cheer" which

WHEN "As Thousands Cheer" which
comes to the National for one
week, beginning Sunday, February 10,
with usual matinees, was produced
in New York year ago, it was
hailed with delight by the critics
and crowned by the public as the
perfect entertainment, with the result
that the music box never had vacant
seat for several hundred consecutive
performances, and, judging by the ad-
vance interest here, the local visit will
carry on that enviable record of pop
ularity.
Dorothy Stone and Ethel Waters
are the stars. The featured players
are Porter Hall, Jerome Cowan, Mar
garet Irving, Dave Fitzgibbons, Albert
Carroll and Hal Forde. The cast also
includes Thomas Hamilton, Clifford
Menz, Harold Murray, Grace Cornell,
Kurt Graf and others.
LAS Thousands Cheer" which is a
genuine revue in every sense of the
word, holds the mirror of satire up to
many worlds celebrities. Under the
banner line Franklin D. Roosevelt
Inaugurated Tomorrow" for instance,
you will discover what Mr.. and Mrs
Hoover really thinks Of Dolly Gam,
Mellon, Stimson and their dynamic
successors. worlds Wealthiest Man
Celebrates Gath Birthday" reveals
John D. Rockefeller. jr., trying to
present Radio City to his father as a
birthday gift, and running for his life
to escape a carving knife. There is
q skit on the baleful effect Noel Cow
ard has upon hotel servants after they
have been exposed to his mannerisms
and literary mood, and there is
domestic scene in Buckingham Palace
which takes us behind the scenes of
domesticity with their majesties the
King and Queen of England, the
Prince of Wales and Prime Minister
Macdonald.

MISS coLsERTs progress in the
cinema sun has been gratifying,
too. Although she made a bitter side
step in the fantastic weeds of Cleo
patra, playing monkey more than
woman in Cecil De Miles fantastic
charade of Egypt's queen, she has
definitely come up from under and
returned to the glory of 1T Hap
pened One Night" in THE Gilded
Lily"
Here, as in the case of Miss 10y.
you find the new and better Colbert.
Originally slated for heated roles. such
as in THE Barker" groomed to be
tonic for the eye and not for the
brain, Miss Colbert has swung from
bad to good, becoming one OF the
screens surer light condolences.
AS yet she hasn't the offhand good
humor of an Ina Claire. AS yet she
lets the studio flood her so with garish
wardrobeS that the character she
plays becomes more doll than per-
Sonality. AS yet she plays too
straight into the camera and lets
those offhand tricks of the stage slip
through her fingers.
She has, however, not allowed her
self to become typed" any more than
have Miss 10y or Miss Davis. And
Paramount, wisely seeing the virtues
of 1T Happened One Night" and pos
sibly the follies of cleopatra" has re-
turned her to the lighter-than-air
mediums which suit her to st..
HOPE, therefore, in the screens
L L leading ladies begins to spring
eternal. We detect almost savage
changes In the future, when Norma
Shearers will have forgotten to be
themselves; when Joan Crawford will
have decided on a definite way of
fixing her hair: when Ann Harding
will have struck two notes instead
Of one in her monotone voice; when
eyes will be as limp and moist and
pleasant as Sylvia Sidney's and
voices as gentle and well bred as Jo-
sephine Hutchinson's.
Somewhere in the future there is
hope for the brittle Charlotte Henrys,
who started too soon on their Alice
in Wonderland" careers; for the song
ambulance girls who slipped into one
role on account of their faces and
then slipped into oblivion on ac-
count of nothing at all; for all
those young hopefuls who. because
Katharine Hepburn believed she was
good, also believe that they are good
(as they very well may be-.
Somewhere in the future we see
color Cheeky Sharper turning the
stars again inside out (the second
revolution since sound) and the sec
ond-row chorus girl becoming the
front-row Garbo girl
Somewhere just around the corner
lie all those curious little gadgetS of
fate which can do the things men
toned above just as they have placed
Myrna 10y and Claudette Colbert
where they are today.
Somewhere in the future, with the
will to work and the will to stay, al
most any of these things can happen
to almost any one.

Miss Sands Recovering.

DOROTHY SANDS, who is rapidly
- recovering from her recent attack
of "flu," which laid her low, and pre-
vented her appearance Sunday night
of this week, February g. at the Ma
tional Theater as the third in the
series of five-star recitals by world
famous artists, under the local man
agement of the T. Arthur Smith Bu-
reau, will be seen instead on Sunday
night, February "a, when she will
present her brilliant success, "Our
Stage and Its Stars"
Evening star., 1935-02-03

~ uAV eACC dIIo oO1A1C ddy CAASA 80
This Miss 10y has done with such
devastating eloquence that the mere
sound of her name today is pleasanter
than the tinkling Of glass and her
voice is more to be desired than gold.
(This phrase is borrowed from one OF
her admirerS.)
The lesson that she has taught in
thus wrangling herself out of a
txeacherous cocoon Is one to be re-
membered. She has defied the laws
of Hollywood. some of which say that
If you are typed" you must remain
typed. She has shaken the green-eyed
monster out of her eyes and Is rocket
ing up toward the stars as human,
likeable heroine of the better class.
Her name is no longer associated with
wicked roles of Egypt. When she
makes an entrance today you know
that love will sneak in after her and
that whatever influence she has will
be rendered toward good rather than
evil.
Miss Loy's prosperous career Is one
which other Hollywood stars and
whatnots may well envy. In the old
days, when she was silent, she was
dumb. People used to say that she
was all ice and little marble. Today
she has as many emotions as harp
has strings, and if she isn't whirl-
wind of arms. legs and feet. it is only
because she doesn't believe that ladies
should air their arms, legs, feet, etc.
MISS LOY'S volcanic rise into the
A'A sublime should gladden. the hearts
Of other celluloid sisters who hope to
be freed some day from their shackles.
For some time now ambitious players
have been realizing that they know
their talents even better than their
Hollywood chiefs. People almost
laughed aloud in Bette Davis face
when she persuaded Warner Bros.
(and it took long siege to do it, to
let her play in "Of Human Bondage"
Known as an effective, If skinny,
clothes horse, she was, before that
time, typed" to be "good"-and if
you we're good" by cracky, you were
meant to remain good!
Miss Davis about-face and Miss
10y SISdQy pun out OF siren JOOS llIO
otherwise jobs are comforting indica-
tions that people don't necessarily have
to stagnate in the movies. If you are
a Mary Pickford you don't necessarily
have to remain a Mary Pickford. If
you are Zasu Pitts, you don't have to
remain Zasu Pitts-although in this
case we think it would be better if
you did.
At any rate, we note great chance
for the future, sure indication that
the stars may change in their firma-
mentS and that today is never the
same as yesterday. With Miss 10y at
the head of this ver-changing legion
we may not know just what to expect,
but it is certain that almost any worm
may turn. Who knows, for instance, if
Ann Harding will not soon appear as
one of the Macbeth witches or if Fred
Astaire will not become an actor of
tragic roles-and who says that Garbo
won't play sour villainess? Dollars
to doughnutS that she would have
been 100 per cent in that dreary
waitress role in "Of Human Bondage"

inclined to sit back and take life

what's the use? Church does not

UNHAPPY MOTHER OF THREE.
Answer-Strange as it may seem
to you your melancholy probably
would be relieved if you were
overtaken by a real disaster. Those
who suffer from real complaints
are not obliged to invent Difficult
ties to worry about. You make
four guesses to account for your
gloom: can inferority complex;
too closely associated with older
people; marks of the depression:
too closely tied to home" All of
them may contribute to your feel
ing of futility but none of them
are likely to be the cause of it.
No doubt you are right in turn
ing back to childhood to account
for present feelings of dread and
anxiety. for it is there that we
first learn to repress feelings of
hostility and rage. Our first re-
actions to disappointment inf1u-
ence us all our life long. To illus
trate the point imperfectly let us
make wild guess that you were
thwarted in the infantile desire
to do harm to a new baby in the
family. of whom you we're jealous.
Perhaps this or some other frus-
trated childish cruelty first sad
died YOU with a heavy load OF
guilt which you struggle to re-
press.
Some such incident accounts for
the ban which you have put on
pleasure. I do not know where
YOU got the idea that you must
not enjoy yourself. Somehow or
other you must entertain a pow
erful secret conviction that things
are too easy for you and that you
are not getting your Just deserts
from life. Therefore you can al
low yourself no pleasure.

the contract can not be made.
AS soon as East gets in with the
king of clubs, he will return heart.
Even though declarer does attempt
the holdup then, West will over

Couragement behind your what's
the-use to-trv attitude is a job
for a psychiatrist, not q COL
umnist, but I should think you
could help yourself by acting on
the theory that you deserve pleas
ure and lots of it; by engaging
yourself in useful occupations
which bring happiness, and by
regarding your anxiety states as
something entirely foreign to your
personality, a sort of invisible
enemy which you should combat
with whatever means within your
reach.
If you are aggressive and your
husband cOmplacent, it may be
that you DO not feel the security
in your marriage which you crave,
even though you love your hus-
band. This might we'll furnish
you with one more cause for
dread.
Dear Jane Jordan-I have haC
several dates with a boy Every time
he has asked me if I wanted hin
to come back. The first few times
I said yes. I liked him as a friend
just to have somebody to go with
The last time he asked me if
wanted him to call again and I sale
I didn't care. He hasn't made any
more dates. I don't care much abou
going with anybody, but my sister
has dates and 1 don't want to sit a.
home. AS long as I am going witt
anybody I'd rather it would be thi;
boy Shall I write him a letter OF
let the whole thing go
JUST WONDERING.
You can't expect to win a boys
friendship as long as you tolerate
him simply TO keep up with your
sister. Is it not true that your
sister is more popular than you are
and that your inability to keep up
with her is back of your indiffer-
ent attitude?
