Priorities Of ~
Needed by Four
Top Comedians
But Laughs Aren't
All in Hit Revue
Coming to National

1t is the boast of "Priorities of
1912" the hit variety revue which
comes to the National Theater on
Monday evening, March /, for an
engagement of two weeks, after its
record-breaking runs at the Forty
sixth Street Theater in New York
and the Erlanger Theater in Chi
cago, that it contains more laughs
not to mention its other entertain
ment elements-than any other
show on Broadway this season. This
can be readily appreciated when it
Is learned that its four stars are
highly geared topflight comedians:
Namely, Lou Holtz, Willie Howard,
Bert Wheeler and Hank Laid.
Holtz, Howard, Wheeler and Ladd
are experienced. theater-wise clowns
who have worked in every medium
of show business and who have
absorbed every trick there is to
know about comedy. Putting the
four of them together was a quad
ripple guarantee of hearty laughter,
and can be credited as an inspira-
ton to Clifford C. Fischer, who, in
association with the Messrs. Shu-
bert, produced "Priorities of 1912"
But, though the main emphasis
of the show is on laughs, as well 1t
should be in times like these. "Pri-
critics of 1912" is also filled with
other good diversions which make
up the component parts of variety
revue. In the field of the dance
there are Peggy and Moro and also
Lari and Conchita. For additional
comedy there Is Gene Sheldon,
hailed as 1.-The comedy find of the
year" by all the New York critics.
For singing there is Luba Malina,
another discovery destined to 60
places. For more clowning there are
Francetta Malloy, Loretta Fischer,
Al Kelly and Lora Saunders. For
breath-taking novelty there are the
Helen Reynolds Skaters. And for
girls there are the Versailles Beau
ties.
In addition to the regular
Wednesday and Saturday afternoon
performances, "Priorities of 1912"
will give two matinees on Sunday
March y, the first at 2:30 o'clock.
and the second at $50. There will
be a performance on Sunday eve
ming as well. ...

Biography Will

Warner's Earle
Again to House
Yankee Doodle Dandy

yankee Doodle Dandy" Warner
Bros. musical based on the life and
music of George M. Conan, which
enjoyed a gala Washington limited
engagement premiere at the Earle
Theater late last year, will be the
screen attraction following Casa
blanca" at the Earle, opening Fri
day. James Cagney appears as the
lovable song -and-dance man and
Joan Leslie, Walter Huston and
Irene Manning are prominently
cast. The oxford Boys headline the
stage show for the week.
Based on the life of George
Michael Cohan, Yankee Doodle
Dandy" is his story told with much
of the music that he wrote. Cohan
is seen as a brash young lad who
gets his parents in hot water when
he tries to act as their manager
All the glory of the -Four Cohans"
is portrayed as they move from town
to town.
George leaves the act to become an
Independent producer and his sue
cess is one of the most remarkable
in theater history. His great plays
and musicals are brought back to
life in small excerpts and in some
long sequences. The picture cap
lures all the drama and comedy that
went into the life of Cohan-and
audiences have already claimed this
as Cagney's greatest role.
The film has many of the un-
forgettable Conan tunes. Songs like !:
over There Give My Regards to
Broadway" The Yankee Doodle
Boy" You're a Grand Old Flag"
"Marys a Grand Old Name" and
others.
Supporting the leading players
is cast OF veterans that includes
Richard Whorf, Jeanne Cagney
George Tobias, Rosemary De Camp,
Frances Langford, George Barber
and Walter Catlett. Michael Curtiz
directed.
Beside the Oxford Boys, the stage
revue features the D'Ivons, Amer
ica's Premier Dancers" the Roxy
cites, and 10 Lombardi and his
music.

established in fact. CCounterat-
tack" was seen in Washington in late
january
Unfortunately, however, it is less
well established in dramatic art.
Presumably the original Russian
authors dashed off this play in a
sardonic mood of vengeful emotion.
The American playwrights faithfully
retain its spirit, but also, just as
faithfully, they retain its defects.
Here is play in which an exciting
and splendidly directed third act
must compensate for preceding
fumbling and occasional tedium. It
may save the show, and another saw
ing element that may prove to he
an intense satisfaction-aS evinced
by flrst-night audience-arises out
of an evening spent in watching 10
captive NaZis under the complete
domination Of a corporal and private
of the Soviet Army detailed to keep
them secure until such time as they
can be questioned by military
authorities.
At the outset the task looks to be
q simple one. The prisoners have
been disarmed Their guardians are
equipped with everything from
knives to hand grenades. But duty
is soon complicated by bomb which
completely wrecks four -story stone
building in the basement of which
the Germans are held. Thus, buried
under hundreds of tons of stone,
steel. dirt and lumber, no food, five
pi1ts OF water, dramatic suspense
thence-forward relates itself to sew
eral problems. Primarily you are
concerned about the success of the
two captors in keeping greatly
superior number of Germans under
subsection. But almost Immediately
you are amazed at the cowardice Of
the prisoners in not taking a chance
and rushing their guards. especially
when one of them, suffering from a
battle wound, is asleep and in fever,
while the other is practically asleep
on his feet. You wonder, too, at the
unbelievable stupidity of the Nazis
in failing time after time to take
advantage of negligences on the part
OF the Russians. Then, too, you
cannot overlook many minor flaws,
single instance of which is found
in the long arguments and ideolog-
ical interchanges among the various
characters, thereby presupposing
facile knowledge of the German
tongue by Russians and vice versa
First Two Acts Tedious.
The first two acts are not only
tedious at times. but in incident
are repetitious. Melodrama, more
than any other form of writing, adj
n1its of what is known as authors
convenience, meaning the arbitrary
devising of situations to support or
carry on a story. But effect thus
achieved must heighten suspense
and fire action. Otherwise, as in
"Counterattack," illusions suffer
and common sense is offended.
Characterization is rather fatty
achieved, save In the cases of the
Russian corporal played by Morris
Carnovsky: of the wounded Russian
private. Sam Wanamaker; of the
Nazi nurse-the only female char
acter-portrayed by Miss Barbara
O'Neil and of several minor char
acters.
AS said, if this play endures it
will be because of that third-act
thriller and the pleasure derived
from observing the plight Of dis
comfted Nszis against whom the
tide has turned.
