Montgomery Play
Is Disappointing

Penny Wise" which the Mont
gomery Players presented Satur-
day evening at Leland Junior High
School, was an unhappy choice for
the usually impressive suburban
amateur group. The sprightly Jean
ferguson Black comedy became q
listless thing in the Bethesda pro-
duction, but the failure to entertain
IN proper measure was due in
greater degree to miscasting than to
1nept playing. The play is very
amusing, but the organization did
not have the right people to enact
1T, or at least did not employ them
Saturday night.
1t was disappointing to see a light
item such as Penny Wise" slowed
to the pace of an Ibsen study, to
hear the lines that made the pres
entation entertaining at times fum-
bled repeatedly. The Montgomery
Players have contributed q number
Of important entries to the record
Of local amateur stage activity and
probably will snap back with their
next show, however. Most of the
actors seen Saturday night are
capable of giving acceptable per-
formances, and they will come
through If intrusted with roles cal
culated to present their talents to
better advantage.
Best effort was that of Edmund
E. Soper, playing the playwright of
f1ckle heart, with Wallace M. Buell.,
as the work-hating younger brother,
finishing second. Doris r. David
son did not offer enough fluttering
to- make Penny the disarmingly
naive little wife that the action
proves she is and Marjorie B. Key
hoe, Rita Mcpherson Lowe and
Beatrice w. Crocker as the two for
mer and the present recipients of
the playwright's extra martial af-
fections, presented only passable
characterizations.

Diane Logan Tops
Cayety Cast

1t Is not the best burlesque show
in the world (whatever that would
be-. but the new revue at Jimmy
Lakes Gayety Theater does have
several people who are sure of ap-
proval by the citizens who frequent
the Ninth street opera house. One
OF these people is Diane Logan, who
will be greeted with enthusiasm by
those customers who like tall, shapely
lasses with flaming red hair. She is
no great help to the comedians when
she takes part in scenes, except in
a decorative way. but when she
goes into her specially probably no
one will care whether she can talk
or not.
Another featured personality is
Boots" Burns, who gets her en-
thusiastic approval from those fans
who like a gal vigorous. A bit on
the unrestrained side, Miss Burns
makes up in volume what her voice
lacks in tone and wakes near to
abandon when Ahe goes into her
dance. And there's a talented and
attractive young lady named Anita
Frances. who dances. not with vigor
and abandon, but with considerable
grace.
Some of the comedy is funny,
some not 80 much 50, but at least
none OF 1t will disappoint the Gus
toners who like to know what Is
coming next. AL Golden and Max
Coleman are the boys who try for
the laughs, sometimes get them.
