OF Shaw the Socialist, Pearson
writes;
From the moment that chez
imbibed the gospel according to
st. Mark, he began to preach to
on every possible occasion, under
every sort of condition, though
as time went on he corrected
the errors in Marks economic
creed and worked out the dis
tictively British brand of social
ism known as Fabianism."
AS Shaw observes of himself, he
gave to the drama such a powerful
impulse that it jumped clean over his
head. His dramatization of the re-
Iieious temperament, in Candida, n
10 take one example,-was type of
Characterization unknown to the
plavgoers of his time; so he had to
create his audiences as well as his
plaves. Since it is primarily as a

knows Shaw, one could wish that Mr..
Pearson had devoted to the plays
themselves a consideration common

Shaw's many sides, the dominant idea
that unifies Mr.. Pearson's interpreted

A GOOD BOOK TO READ

G. b. S., A Full Length Portrait
Hesketh Pearson-Harper-$3.75.
CReviewed by Amanda b. Bradley,
Dean of Women, Washington College,
Chestertown, Md
The idea of a Boswell, cautiously
eliciting biographical material from
George Bernard Shaw, reminded me
offhand of the story about an Irish
man who, awaking to find thief in
his room searching for money, arose
from his bed remarking, Faith, and
it's meself will be helping ye!" If
the analogy holds for Mr.. Shaw, how
ever, certainly theft is the last meth
cd Mr.. Pearson's plentitude OF ma
terial suggests. On the contrary
one feels throughout this book Mr.,
Shaw's gratified and gratifying re-
sponse to the fearless, straightfor-
mard technique Of biographer wor-
thy of his steel.
Beginning with the legendary
descent from Macduff, and Shaw's
Measure at having an ancestor IN one
of Shakespeare's plays, Mr.. Pearson
pauses only to raise the question OF
whether he would have been equally
pleased with the Drunken Porter as
an ancestor, and then hurries on to
less remote forebears: father who
destroyed his domestic peace by I'M
moderate indulgence in a trombone
and strong drink, and mother who
was born without 'comedic impulses
but with a mezzo-soprano voice OF
exceptional beauty. To the humor
of the one and the imagination of the
other, Mr.. Pearson attributes the
chief characteristics of the Shavian
complex.

extends from the death of the Prince
Consort to Hitler's invasion of Rus

The 1912 observance of Negro

'bellicose atheism, his disbelief in
medical orthodoxy, his stupid attack
on Shakespeare. are but the NANTES
tations of a Socratic gadfly. The real
Shaw 49, prominently magnanimous-
is revealed in the letter to Henry
Arthur Jones at the time Of their po-
litical estrangement, and in the
patient remonstrance 30 Jacob Ep-
stein, whose bust of her husband Mrs.
Shaw refused to admit to her house.
On another occasion Shaw writes of
disloyal friend, cit is when man is
too much hurt to do the perfectly
magnanimous thing that he most
needs standing by" And the de-
scendant of Macduff could stand by
as unflinchingly as he could lay on.
Like Robins bust, no portrait of a
living man can be said to be COM
plete. And q subject so vigorous
and versatile may yet require of Mr..
Pearson a second volume.

ATLANTA, Feb. 9-Alaban1a is
getting the range on Tennessee
and that little item may assume
important proportions when it comes
time to put blue chips on the line
in the Southeastern Conference
basket ball tournament.
'Bama has lost just two games
this winter to collegiate opponents,
and both of them were to Tennessee.
The Vols came to Tuscaloosa Janu-
ary 9 and downed the Crimson
Tide, 37-15, allowing exactly three
field goals. Saturday night at
Knoxville the Vols turned back Ala
bama again, 1929, but this time the
Tide sank 10 field goals
This is a brisk upturn in business
for Alabama, and if the Tide keeps
rolling at that pace in the tourna-
ment February 1928. Tennessee may
be in for stormy weather.
