"Toby Tyler" Famed
Story, Children's
Theater Drama.

~ EOPLE of the circus, presented
- in that intimate way which is
the great charm Of the Chill
4 dren's Theater of New York,
impressed juvenile Washington Sat-
urday, when large audience at the
National gave strong welcome to
"Toby Tyler, or Ten Weeks With a
Circus"
Forgetting the romance of a world
of unreality, such as this company
has often created, the members Of
the organization carried the audience
into the realm of bareback riding
and menageries, associated with the
tent shows. The performance was
notable also for its revival of interest
in story which was among the best
in the literature of boyhood and girl
hood.
Several of the regular members of
the organization were in the cast.
which was augmented by some names
familiar to the adult stage, such as
William Courtleigh, appearing as a
clown.
Fascination of tinsel, competing
with recollections of home by a boy
who ran away and then regretted the
act, furnished the plot, which was
unfolded by the genius of Clare Tree
Major, director and drama tizing con-
tributor.
Meeting the problem of stage setting
which would be appropriate to the
circus, the troupe succeeded well in
this direction, giving force to the &C
tivities Of the entertainers.
Interest in the play is distributed
among several young actors, with the
burden falling upon the shoulders of
Robert Pelham as Toby, Betty Ann
Steele as Ella, the rider; Helen Law
renee as the fat woman, Wendell
Whitten as the thin man and Parker
Mills as the keeper of the refresh
ment stand, while there was still
conspicuous place for Koko, the re-
markably trained monkey.
Like most of the productions of
this company Toby Tyler" in its
several scenes, gave the impression
OF near perfection in preparation.
and what is always characteristic of
the Children's Theater, an impress
siVe contact between stage and au-
djence.
Others in the cast were Harvey
Williams, John Hampshire, Warren
Howe, Jean Roland, Robert Aiken.

Good Earth
Cont tinues S
At National
Luise Rainer Superb
in Poignant Film
Drama.

UNLESS some motion picture
actress turns in this year what
will be mighty close to the
greatest cinema performance
Of all time, Luise Rainer is going to
win the Academy Award two years in
a row. For it will have to be close to
the greatest performance of all time
to top the acting of the 1886 academy
winner in The Good Earth" now in
It's second week at the National. Yes,
and if some actress does do something
this year better than Miss Rainer's
O-lan in this superb screen transcript
ton of Pearl S. Bucks novel, they
won't bother awarding her statuettes;
they'll erect monuments to her.
1t has been said before but it will
bear repeating that when motion pic
lures can show consistently as good
acting as Miss Rainer contributes to
'The Good Earth" the stage can begin
to worry. The stage can then begin
to worry plenty, for Miss Rainer's
performance is one which awes you
with the sheer beauty of its simplicity,
moves you, leaves you breathless with
the force Of its sincerity and its
authenticity.
The authenticity with which Miss
Rainer creates in O-lan an intensely
human symbol Of all that is good in
the character of woman is the very
breath of the rest of THE Good
Earth" too. Translating Mrs. Bucks
novel to the screen was a task which
called for all the care. the skill. the
taste and the intelligence that is
Hollywood's, but the result in celluloid
is truly worthy Of the novel. It's film
which stands well up toward the head
Of the epic class.
There's much more to be said of this
motion picture which carries on the
spirit of Mrs. Bucks "The Good
Earth in new medium. There's the
masterful direction of Sidney Franklin,
which has given continued life to
the poignancy of the story; there's the
beauty of the photography all the way
through; there's the achievement of
the technical department in the max
ing Of the spectacular sequence of the
plague OF locusts; there are the superb
items OF acting done by Paul NUM-
and number of people in lesser roles;
there are a thousand and one other
things and so little space to praise
them.
The Good Earth" however, prob
ably is what every one in HOLLYWOOD
has been practicing for when he
called anything up to now colossal or
stupendous. It's dramatic, beautiful
and moving and it Is mark for every
producer in the business to aim at.

How was Mrs. Van Dyke? How
were the children? Did she know how
a stranger in Washington could find
time to shave, bathe and change
clothes? She didn't Neither did
L. B. Mayer, the last IN" in M-G-M,
whom he called next.
The Aliens, Commissioner and Mrs,
were coming back to take him to
dinner. After the Commissioner had
gone home to bathe, shave and dress.
The Aliens did come back-bathed and
dressed. And Mr.. Van Dyke was not.
1t was $50 and every one was hungry
and every one forgot about going out
to dinner. Dinner was sent up and bv
the time every one was seated (every
one who called virtually became a
prisoner of the mans personality)
the living room of the suite looked
like banquet hall.
Mr.. VAN DYKE remembered that
Harley Stover, the well-named
coal magnate was in the same hotel.
He remembered Mr.. Stover had once
promised him coal mine. He called
Mr.. Stover and asked him to join the
party, with or without a coal mine.
Mr.. Stover did. Without a coal mine.
Every one told stories Every one ate.
A few of the harder souls present even
drank champagne. In the midst of
the meal Mr.. Van Dyke remembered
that he wanted only three things in
this World-to bathe, shave and dress.
But he didn't. The stories went on.
and the dinner went on, and time went
on, but who cared?
Along about midnight the Aliens
thought they ought to CO. but Mr..
Van Dyke pointed out that he was
weakening on bathing, shaving and
dressing and wouldn't they stay? They
could not, but Walter O'Hara of the
race track O'Haras, and some other
O'Haras and people came in to take
the place of the Aliens.
They did not stay very long and
Mr.. Van Dyke was sorry
carter Barron mad the thought
about the time the party was breaking
up that it would be nice for Mr.. Van
Dyke to visit Variety Club and meet,
and be met by, the towns entertain
ment people. Mr.. Van Dyke thought
that would be good idea. But
shouldn't he bathe, shave and dress?
So every one Immediately went to
Variety Club. Several dozens of men,
bers, all bathed, shaved and dressed,
were there to meet and greet Mr.. Van
Dyke, with the meeting and greeting
going on until dawn was about to
come up like thunder over Capitol
Hill.
1t was at this point that Mr.. Van
Dyke felt that it would be timely to
eat supper or breakfast or something,
and then go home where he could
bathe, shave and undress.
BY that time no man was left alive
to interfere with his bathing, shaving
or dressing Only Mr.. Van Dyke
remained awake in Washington!

material to good advantage and, in
addition, nets substantial response
from out front on his eccentric shuf-
fling dance speciality. Somewhat
reminiscent of Peanuts" Bohn, LLOYD.
nevertheless, makes his hoofng take"
on its own merit. 1t is Connolly, how
ever, who rates principal recognition,
each of his scenes is what the vernacu-
lar of show business denotes as "socko."
The nervous fidgeting and expressive
pantomime make for definitely
funny character.
Anne Wynn deserves signal COM
mendation for acrobatic and control
dance work. Her routines are executed
with fine precision, the Independent
Circuit has seen few better in her line.
Aileen Dale, the "Myrna 10y of bur-
lesque," renders invaluable support in
the scenes and handles the song-and-
dance capably, too, while Helen
Rogers is an acceptable vocalist. Com
pleting the company are Conny Ryan

M-G-M'S ace director who never has

haps, he will make picture called
After After the Thin Man"
HAVING done all that, and a great
deal more, Mr.. Van Dyke came
to Washington for rest. His first
day of relaxation started with break
fast with Host Carter Barron, an
incidental feature of which was a
reception to the press. He had
scrambled eggs and 1000 questions at
his suite in the Mayhower. And about
dozen guests.
Commissioner George E Allen,
sometimes known as "Fullback'
Allen, called. Did Mr.. Van Dyke
want to go to the races? Mr.. Van
Dyke did want to go to the races.
He also wanted to shave, to bathe and
to change clothes He wanted his
trunk unpacked and his suits pressed.
He wanted his guests to stay. He
wanted Commissioner Allen to bring
the races to the hotel Thought it
would be a fresh angle
He finally left for the races, still
wanting to shave, bathe and change
clothes. Still wanting, too, to un-
pack his trunk and have his suits
pressed-l3 suits including a Marine
officers dress uniform.
IN THE late afternoon, he returned
from the races. He had lost 1920
or $40, or something" but that made
no difference. All he really cared
about was getting shave, bath and
a change of raiment. And to tell
few stories. Would every one for
give him if he took about 20 minutes
off? Every one would. But Mr.. Van
Dyke told stories instead. He in

THE best piece of recent news
anent the local entertainment
situation is the announce
L ment that Tony Hardt has
been inveigled into returning to
Washington and the Roadside Thea
ter this Summer. Probably it didn't
take much inveigling for the Road
side Is one of Tony's loves and who
are we to say or care who or what
his other loves are
Tony started the Roadside of on
its career, you remember, on a warm
night in June back in 1884, directing
'The Octoroon" and staging it in the
ex-shoe heel factory that was the
groups first home. That rare old
melodrama won the howls OF laughter
and the plaudits which gave encour-
agement to the Roadsiders and i'm
petus to their cause.
Murder in the Old Red Barn"
was another of those old-ti timers
staged by Tony-the Murder" that
became such hit it has been done
by the group two or three times since
the first year and such a favorite
with couple of the towns drama
scribes that they have reviewed it on
occasion when it was not the play
on the program
This year Tony is not confining
his talents to the ancient melodramas
which are the Roadside's chief raison
| d'etre, but will be the guiding di-
rectorial hand behind all the plays
| on the slate out at the red barn
theater on the Rockville pike.
The season this Summer is to last
IA weeks and that means Tony will
stage seven plays-including melo-
dramas, reviVals of nineteenth CEN
tury hits and possibly a tryout.
