AUL GREEN, author OF Johnny
- johnson" is distinctly a re-
gional playwright. Coming
4 out of Carolina as graduate
Of the now famous Carolina Play
makers he won for himself national
recognition with his play In Abra-
hams Bosom" which walked of with
the Pulitzer Prize.
Both THE House of Connolly" and
1.-THE Field God" again stamped
Green as q playwright of the South.
But with Johnny johnson" he en-
larged his scope to include all Of
America while at the same time
keeping those qualities of warm hu-
man understanding which are usually
associated with folk plays. Johnny is
himself made of the same stun as such
national characters as Rip Van
Wrinkle and Paul Bunyan. He Is con-
temporary mythology. Named after
the 5000 boys who were part of the
A. E. F. and who bore the same name,
Johnny Johnson Green has given him
an indefinite parentage. When he is
being questioned by the recruiting
oficer he explains that he doesn't
know where he was born, somewhere
between pillar and post" and that he
be '26 come pumpkin time"
Emerging thus far from American
sell he becomes symbolical not only
OF the 5000 boys who bore the same
name, but also of the thousands of
others who went to war because they
believed they were fighting for just
cause. When Johnny Is talking to
the allied generals who have met to
estimate the probable loss of life in
the on-coming battle he explains that
words are more powerful than bullets
III you speak them at the right time. a"
He himself has already proved this
IN that he could not bring himself to
volunteer to fight until he had a
word like freedom" for which he
could fight. This, Green feels, is a
fundamental trait OF the American
people.
And so Johnny moves across the
stage the embodiment of America s
experiences IN the war. its hopes, its
dreams, its indomitable energy, its
humorous philosophy. and its eventual
disillusionment
Johnny johnson" will open Thurs
day as the fifth production of the
Civic Theater season. It will continue
for the remainder of the week and
play the next week from Wednesday
to Saturday. 1t has been directed by
c. COLES Strickland, with settings de-
signed by William M. Girvan and

Damon Runyon's play was funnier on
the stage than 1t now is in the films,
but there is no doubt that it makes
excellent comedy. Yet cannot avoid
feeling that here is the widest attempt
at the escapist drama yet devised. and
the most futile. We see life being re-
garded more and more cheaply all
about us. and we try to end by re-
garding it as lark Despite the bril-
liant farcical skill of Mr.. Runyon. who.
perhaps to his surprise. finds himself
one of Americas most important writ
ing men. it is no such thing, even when
it comes to a gangster.

NEW DRUG USED
TO TREAT TYPE
OF MENTAL ILL

ST. LOUIS tUP)-Dr. T.. NJ. Gro
gan, city Sanitarium Superinten-
dent, has recalled that six demen-
tia praecox patients have been re
ceiving injections of metrazol in an
experiment to find a simpler and
more effective treatment for split
personality" than insulin shiek.
Metrazol. a crug. produces a
state similar to epilepsy which
lasts from to 10 minutes. 1t is
injected directly into a vein. Dr.
Grogan explained, and its effect is
produced by irritation of the ner-
vouS system.
The injections were begun sew
eral weeks ago. Treatments are
administered twice weekly for IS
weeks. Several of the patients have
already shown decided improve
ment.
Chief advantages of the metra
zol treatment over insulin shock
are its economy, simplicity and
more favorable reactions, accord
ing to DR.. Grogan. He pointed out
that one doctor, aided by nurse.
can administer more than 25
treatments in a few hours. He said
insulin shock is far more expensive
and its reaction many times un-
favorable to the patients health.
The treatments will be extended
to several hundred cases of de-
mentia praecox in the sanitarium
as soon as relatives grant approv-
al. DR. Grogan said.
