Mrs. Tanqueray," Mr.. Pin Passes
BY" Camille" or "Lightnin'."
The popularity of murder from
humorous viewpoint has been
repeatedly noted as a theme of the
season, the outstanding current eX-
amples being arsenic and Old
Lace" the Boris Karloff mock
horror comedy which involves
some 40 homicides, and Mr.. and
Mrs. North" which deals with an
amiable young married couple
whose bright Greenwich Village
apartment is the scene of consid-
cradle violence.
Another notable phenomenon is
the number of productions-no less
than seven out of 25-which are
not original stage productions
but adaptations or derivationS of
some other field of writing-books,
short stories or magazine sketches.
The aforementioned Mr.. and Mrs.
North" was dramatized by Owen
Davis from the New Yorker maga-
zine husband-and-w wife sketches by
Richard Lockridge, the New York
Sun drama critic.
Another young-married-life-hit,
Claudia" came from Rose Frank
ems Redbook Magazine yarns. The
landmark, Tobacco Road first
came out as a book. pal joey" the
musical about a minnoW-minded
bush-league jazz singer, came from
John OHara's New Yorker Mag
azine letters from joey.
The success Life with Father"
is based, of course, on Clarence
Days "reminiscences in the New
Yorker, and that magazine scores
fourth time with MY Sister
Eileen" based on Ruth McKenney's
tales of the vicissitudes of two girls
in a Greenwich Village apartment.
And late opening, Native Son, 3"
is the dramatization of Richard
Wright's best-seller novel of a year
ago.
Then, gathering up some loose
but not insignificant ends, we have
Johnny Belinda" drama based
around a girl deaf mute; and Ger
trude Lawrence's much-talked- of
Lady in the Dark" the psyche
analysis musical based on Author
Moss Harris own adventures with
the mind reading profession -
neither of them in the groove
drama by a long shot.
Surveying the field, we find only
a half dozen legitimate shows whose
nature probably would not have
startled conventional theatergoers
of 10 or 20 years ago-a handful of
comedies, the Poppy Wood-Jane
Cowl "Old Acquaintance" the ma
Claire-Philip Merivale The Talley
Method" the Ethel Barrymore The
Corn Is Green" Katharine CornellS
George Bernard Shaw oldie, The
Doctors Dilemma" and two anti
Nazi plays. Elmer Rice's Flight to
the West" and Lillian Hellman's
Watch on the Rhine"
Not that there's anything wrong
about theatrical landscape spotted
with oddities. 1t is healthy, en-
couraging sign that people are ex-
perimenting with different" things
especially when the efforts are met
with such an enthusiastic reception
as this season has brought.

hand and felt for her slippers with
her bare feet.
She found one with her foot,
couldn't quite feel the other. But,
clever woman, this Dietrich. She
seemed to know just why Walsh
had kicked that second slipper out
of sight under the bed.
There was nothing to do but go
after it-and Marlene did just that.
On her hands and knees, she went
after it, dragging the old satin
nightie under the bed with her and
out again. On her feet, she started
toward the door on which Robinson
and Raft were still pounding.
Once more" said Walsh gently.
The scene was repeated.
'Uh-huh," we said to Walsh, our
puzzlement slowly vanishing. That
way you get more time and sus-
penSe to the scene. Like the porter
knocking in Macbeth"
More suspense" Walsh agreed
as he retreated to the sidehnes to
study the camera angle. And
don't forget-more of Dietrich. too
A lot of people ought to like that

stepping off a neat rumba at ClroS
the night before. Now her face was
all prettylike, but her hair was at
tractively muSsed-juSt the way she
had mussed it in the hand-mlrror
before closing her eyes.
Outside the adjoining living room,
Edward G. Robinson and George
Raft, friends and unwilling rivals
for Dietrich's affections, stood wait
ing for the signal from Director
Raoul Walsh. When it came they
knocked loudly on the door.
Marlene opened her eyes just as
she had in rehearsal. listened
moment and then slid out from
under the covers. The sheets were
distinctly not satin and the comforts
were not pure wool All this must
have been a little repulsive to Mar
lene, but she went right on with her
play acting.
| She sat for a moment on the edge
of the bed, feeling with her toes for
the bedroom slippers, maribou-
! trimmed. while she pulled on the
plain, dark blue dressing gown,
which must have cost the wardrobe
department at least $198.
Came the knock again, this time a
little more vigorously, and Miss
Dietrich stood up, rubbed her eyes
and slithered toward the door. The
heels of her slippers clumped along
as she walked.
"Wait minute" interrupted Di-
rector Walsh. ITS all too pat. Get
back into bed. if you will please,
Miss Dietrich"
Quite leisurely and with an ele-
gance that belied her sordid trap
pings. the star discarded her slip
pers and robe and climbed back into
bed.
Nine tourists, just arrived on the
set in charge of a pop-eyed guide,
gasped audibly. This wasn't in the
books. This was a "cloSed set" 1t
was all a mistake Miss Dietrich s
face tightened just trif1e. Director
Walsh turned and whispered to the
guide. Quickly the set was cleared
of all except necessary people.
There were no more gaSps.
Once she had tucked herself back
in bed and her maid had held a
mirror while she carefully mussed up
her hair again, Director Walsh
stepped to the bedside. He kicked
one of her slippers, far back under
the old bed.
"Once more" he said briskly.
Obediently, Miss Dietrich went
back to sleep and Robinson and
Raft pounded on the door. She
wakened slowly, looked about, lis
tened and slid out of the bed again.

One might have started. of course,
with a valedictory paragraph or so
on the subject of William Glrvan.
Valedictories, somehow, make bad
beginnings.
The fact remains, at this point in
the column, that the man whose
name has appeared on Civic Theater
programs more consistently than
any two other names one could
mention. has departed. The tech
nical director of the theater since
its inception also has gone West,
but not to Hollywood The lmaglna-
tive, energetic Girvan, who turned
Wardmans stage magicaly into
such different things as ships, Folger
Libraries, mountain tops, hospital
wards. penthouseS, etc, has gone in

son for going to Palo Alto is the
reason most people go there, to teach
or study at Leland Stanford Uni
versity, the school most recently
made famous by its use of the IT.
formation. Mr.. Girvan will both
teach and study.
Mr.. Girvan's work did not go with
him, however, He left a part Of it
here for the Civic's next production,
Men in White" which opens next
Sunday evening at Wardman Park
Theater.
In his work at Stanford, Mr.. Cir
van again will be associated with
r. CoWles Strickland, who gave up
directing Civic a pair of years
ago to turn his attention once more
to the University Theater, which has
profited no end thereby.

Ziegfeld girls, as streamlined by M
GIN, make it sound as If they
could be picked as easily as dande-
lions in a spring lawn. They go to
the effect that the average age Of
such a female is 20, height feet
inches, weight 120.
With the flip of a wrist, the Cen
Eus Bureau probably could produce
statistical data to prove there are
'steen hundred thousands of such

But no. It takes more than that.
