find the parts of the four accom-

level in Importance. Miss Cornell is
far from outstanding, therefore, as
protagonist. Miss Musgrove, Miss
Gordon, Miss Anderson, all have
equal rights to the spotlight-which,
accordingly, rests as often upon
them as upon Miss Cornell.

THE picture duplicates with arlaz-
ing accuracy feats of strategy that
recently have covered our Navy with
glory in the South Pacific; 1t repre-
sents with considerable fidelity the
skill, courage and tradition of our
Navy, and 1t portrays wildly the
deep and glowing affection of men
of the sea for a gallant ship.

ton a fim that emphasizes the spirit
and purpose Of the times and one
which is certain to create an en-
thusiasm that will thrill and fortify
every man and officer in the Navy
Navy fighting for all freedom
loving people Of the world. It is q
production that ought to have q
profound effect on civilian morale as
well, and. In our estimation, 1t well
deserves the Navy E. for significant
contribution to the war effort.
TN addition to exhorting all
Americans to see this motion pic
ture, we should like to suggest that

that during days ahead we all stand

When the schoolboys of Chicago
rose in violent protest against their
feminine classmates wearing Stacks
on the campus, Hollywood's women
joined the hue and cutlery There
were shrieks of "Exhibitionist!"
when the photograph of lad in
skirts hit the front pages. It was
all very exciting.
Stacks have always been part Of
the movie gals wardrobe, Of course.
There Is hardly . woman player in
town who arrives for work IN the
wee hours Of the dawn clad N any
thing else.
And Evelyn Reyes put into words
the feminine feeling against the
Chicago protest:
Stacks these days are not Just
cute" she said. They are down.
right patriotic! They save stock
ings. They keep you warm, hence
keep you from getting colds, hence
keep you from calling the services Of
the few doctors who have not joined
the armed forces. We're going to
wear 'em-for the duration"
OF course, Miss Keyes has Just the

our leading playwrights, variously
distracted Just now from their es-
sential occupation-have scratched
Chekhov, result being his defeatist
drama, THE Three Sisters" now
at the Ethel Barrymore Theater.
(Play was seen In Washington in
early December
THE Three Sisters" is a library
piece taken from shelves where re-
pose the belles-letters of the ages.
Playgoers, who appreciate high lit
erary values, who are willing to swap
thrill. suspense and dynamic quail
1ty for the deft projection of human
appeal and subtle emotional con-
tent, will surely accept this play
in the same spirit in, which it is
offered and acted Others, who pre-
fer q more heartening. or, in any
case, q less tenuous drama than this
one, will nonetheless be drawn to It,,
because OF the alluring brilliancY
Of those engaged in acting it.
Looks Like Museum Piece.
But still others-who can say how
many?-either will stay away or will
be impatient at the sniveling neu-
roticism of THE Three Sisters its
defeat OF insignificant ambitions
and its ladling of gloom out OF a
shallow bowl. If Chekhov were alive
and writing now, his characters, no
doubt, would have much more I'M
portant things to SWIVEL about. If
he were true to the Russian mood
Of today, his work would be char
acterized by tragedy much more
deeply organic than sniveling gloom.
The statement is hazarded in the
face Of fact that his tragedies. such
as they are, grew out Of the I'M
ceasing pinpricks of life rather than
out of poignant human disaster.
Consequently, in its gloomier
phases, audiences at THE Three
sisters" are not SO deeply moved as
the actors perhaps would like them
to be. There are so many things
SO much more affecting today in this
grim world than the petty mental
travail of three footing sisters.
Their PrOOtemS MINOR.
One OF them, Masha. is married
unsatisfactory to an unenlivening
husband, Kuigin, plodding school,
master. She loves Col Vershinin-
himself unhappily married to shrew
who, in turn, loves Masha, Both
lack strong initiative, the courage of
their convictions. so nothing comes
of this-nothing. AS Masha, Miss
Cornell is. of course. splendid when
her role gives opportunity for splen-
dor-which is not always, and Tom
Powers and Dennis King as school,
master and colonel, respectively,
support her with distinction.
Another Sister. Olga Miss Judith
Anderson, is a school teacher, and,
oh, how weary is she with her mar
row, pedagogical, provincial life!
But does Chekhov let her out? Not
he. She stays put. The third sister,
Trina, played by Miss Gertrude Mus
grove, seems all set to get out of
her humdrum life. But again Chek-
how says no. He kills off her bril-
liant fiance in duel. So she, too,
remains as planted.
