C. u. Lets MoIere's Hair Down

It Is the habit Of audiences to
think Of the drama of, say, Moliere,
as old. But students at Catholic
University are taught otherwise,
that the drama of Moliere's time
was younger than we are and that
II they can only get into the youth
full spirit OF it, the whole thing Is
a lark. The truth of the latter is
being proved nightly through Sum-
day at the university theater where
The Doctor in Spite of Himself"
is illustrating what Preston
Sturges-with Olsen and johnson
touches-this fellow Moliere was.
"A classic has not had such exuber-
ant treatment, such a humanization
since the Lunts went wonderfully
daft a few seasons ago in The
Tanning of the Shrew."
The university theater's approach
to Moliere Is SO definitely in the
mans own engagingly impish spirit
that Director Alan Schneider. has
dared to turn out musical adapta-
ton. Songs and dances of the pc
riod have been added to give it q
hooking grace, an added touch
which helps Moliere to let his hair
down, trick he did better than any
other dramatist of the French the
alter.
! THE Doctor in Spite of Himself"
as you may SurmiSe from the title
or the remnant of your French play
reading, is a satire on medicine.
Inc science has developed consider

to keep up the suspense even though
time subsequently has provided the
answer to her maneuverings.

Between the larger elements OF
the drama, Wing and a Prayer"
finds time to show what personal life
was like aboard such a ship. In
the case Of Ameche, it was that of
naval fighter inhumanly dedicated
to his profession, a chap who had
to appear completely brutalized to
the tense younger officers, especially
the pilots, under his jurisdiction.
Particularly the victim of his atti-
tude is Andrews. a squadron COM
mander who is up on his teamwork
but does not think it necessarily
requires dehumanization.
They are the top two in the per-
sonal conflict that rides aboard the
script, but there are other types to
round out the idea that the going
was rough and enormously strange
to freedom-fancying Americans.
Among them are the young Holly
wood celebrity who hams his every
gesture in flight. the hero who funks
out on his first flying job after being
shot down, and the mutinous young
ster who takes the order not to fight
as one OF the most ridiculous ever
issued to an American.
They are all pretty handy in car

The interesting thing on the Cap

consists of a pair of bespangled

merging as it does surface and
aerial warfare and retaining the
best features of each. Civilians are
very likely to be amazed at the
high and continuous excitement
packed into such a seemingly tech
nical obscurity as naval tactics. Its
pattern is that of the documentary
film, piece of straight camera re-
porting. but Goth Century-Fox has
taken the precaution to decorate it
with such familiar faces as those
of Don Ameche, Dana Andrews, Sir
Cedric Hardwicke and numerous
others.
Wing and Prayer" is unbash-
eddy a fighting picture, honest
enough to avoid the temptation to
add even a single female face or
figure for even the briefest aside.
1t is that presumably because it
reputedly is taken from the Nays
own records, the account of a car
rier, called *" which was the
heroine Of the great piece of

into their first fatal trap at Midway,
months after Pearl Harbor TX" in

any human heroine the studio might

X X
Wing and a Prayer" does more
than tell the story of the individuals
in a carriers crew. 1t is tale of
men, the various types that Holly
wood would never dare to ignore,
but 1t is, overall, the story of a
single ship that played Lorelei to
the japanese Navy. 1t is never
implausible that it read excitingly in
the Nays files and pretty much
the same as it is presented with
Jerome Cady's interpretations to take
adequate care of the studios actors.
The screen drama opens on an
of -the-record scene in which an
admiral (Hardwicke) is undertaking
to answer congressional groups
question: Where is our Navy?
1t requires no great memory to
recall that that was one of the most
terrifying questions in the American
mind for months after Pearl Har-
Dor. Nor does it require any pro-
digiouS knowledge at this point to

The picture, however, shows just
how it was, how one of the few
carriers that remained afloat and
available in the Pacific was sent
on wild mission which was to
make the Japs think that she was
four carriers. but scattered ones,
and eventually to lure them into
the Midway trap.

apply pretty well today to a prob
able practitioner here and there.
An exponent of wide open foot
ball-beg pardon, theater-Director
Schneider has given his cast not
merely a stage but whole audi
forum and part of the adjoining
campus to romp in on this occasion.
At its widest, the romp Is conducted
by Charles Steinmetz as the unwit-
ting doctor, May Walther as his
jeering, jibing wife, and in its most
gentle phases by Joan OByrne as
the shy heroine and James Murphy
as her almost frustrated sutton.
