From that point on the gay mood

That is pretty fast company in

just as many a more experienced
playwright, Mr.. Marquand runs into
third-act trouble. 1t involves no in
timation of disaster to the wittiest,
wisest, and withal warmest play of
the season, but 1t does suggest that
there still is work to be done on the
Max Gordon production.
THE Late George Apley," making
due allowance for the flaws of an
almost premiere performance, vir-
tually towers over most of the ma
terial that has crept into the thea
ter in recent years. It X-rays a
Beacon street family in Boston and
u shows them to be ridiculous and
1aughable in their snobbery. But it
also displays them as poignant hu-
man creatures, trapped in their class
limitations and symbol of all the
others similarly trapped, whatever
their classes may be. 1t sends you
into the night thinking on that, but
remembering also how gaily you
laughed while 1t was being pointed
out to you. The theater is not often
that intelligent and rarely is 1t so
kind.
For it, last nights distinguished

This doesn't mean that Joan will
