shown themselves to be the masters

credit to Walter Kerr who staged

Hurley as the bombastic coward
Margaret Mary Tisdale as the tenn

crafty manservant, and Aileen Nc
Nellis as the rowdy maid are others
whose work is outstanding.
Ralph Browns revolving stage
gives Venice its traditional romantic
appearance and in the smoothness

Loan drive was not due to trans
portation and hotel problems, as an
nounced, but to lethargy on the
part -of big screen personalities to
participate in the three-weeks' train
jaunt over the Nation.
The Victory Committee, which has
chalked up a brilliant wartime rec
ord in all previous bond drives, went
out on a limb by announcing the
names of some 20 big-time stars who
supposedly had agreed to make the
trip.
Most Of the players refusal were
on the basis of overwork. They
said hospital appearances and camp
shows, which they still want to con-
tinue, tied up all their spare time
away from the stages. Consequent
ly, about the only participation by
the motion-p picture industry in the
current bond-selling campaign will
be pepper-up trailers on the screen
and use of their halls when and
where local committees wish to stir
up enthusiasm.
Absence of 20 stars over such a
period would have worked a con-
siderable financial hardship on all
major studios at this critical time
when they are attempting to stag
ger back to normal schedules after
seven months of labor upheaval that
critically impaired production. 1t
is denied, however, that studios
made any concerted effort to in

Most familiar line in any movie

Before that leads any one to feel he
is trapped in a musical version of
the theory of relativity, let it be
explained that:
THE, Liar" is a comedia dell 'arte,
written by Goldoni in the 1700s,
which has been adapted and set to
music by the three modern collabo-
rators just mentioned 1t telescopes
the centuries as if they were papier
mache, mixes periods with the aban-
don of a man making bathtub gin,
and, after the shock of the first taste,
induces fine giddy feeling which
makes you wonder why no one
thought of that before. It is the
theater with its hair down and, bless
its heart, it looks so enticing YOU
can feel the centuries dropping away
as SO many capStones on your spirit
of revelry.
''The Liar" might be too much of
shock for the commercial theater,
but 1t will seem grand idea to any
one who ever has wondered what his
rakehell ancestors did few hundred
years before Abbott and Costello.
Admirers of the latter think they
are riot; "The Liar" darned well
is one and you don't have to get
mixed up in it If you dislike seeing
the current dramatic conventions
kicked all over the stage. Kicked
about, moreover, to music as modern
as that of Cole Porter, and which
not only sounds pleasant but pene-
trates well beyond the ear. Lyricist
Eager's words, in still other words.

This spectator at last nights OPEN

modernization of play whose form

He told himself that the STYLES of
Goldoni and three fellows named

match. He kept telling himself that

Obviously it is no easy task to
write music for such period piece
in the modern idiom, but that OF
"The Liar" is contemporary enough
to send you into the night whistling
several of the tunes that linger in
evitably in memory. The main diff
ference in the production musically
Is that it offers considerably greater
Evening star., 1945-11-03

that that was the fun of the thing:
that comedia dell'arte was q won
derful crack-brain affair, entirely
spontaneous and nonsensical and
that it was too bad there was not
more of it.
Catholic University's facile cast
sees that the production has these
qualities, and with such a reckless
and abandoned spirit that one over
looks the fact that the music is
neither played nor sung up to its
potentialities.
All the familiar characters of the
comedia dellarte are present in
The Liar" despite the whimsical
treatment to which it has been sub
Jected in the current version.
The principal one, in case you are
as ignorant of Goldoni as we were,
is a romantic fellow who has a way
with truth that is as outrageous as
his way with women. Neither is
malicious, understand. The fellow
just thinks that life is drab affair
which needs the attention of man
who can paint it with more brilliant
colors. The labyrinth of lies which
threatens him with polygamy, life
imprisonment, death for treason,

ballots in yesterdays single-slate

protested by the United States as
undemocratic.
The elections went ahead after
the Bulgarian government replied
to note Of protest from Washing

to believe the results of an election
under (present) conditions will re-
fleet the Bulgarian peoples choice
Of representative democratic goy-

the position of the Communist dom
mated Fatherland Front party has
been that full democratic rights ex-

The American protest was based
on report from Mark Ethridge,
Louisville. KY, publisher, who spent
two weeks here investigating the
situation as a personal representa-

nation joined in the protest.

LISBON, Nov. 19.-Opponents of
Portugal's dictator, DR.. Antonio de
Oliveira Salazar, may know possibly
in week how effective was their
campaign to keep voters away from
the polls In yesterdays anticlimactic
one-party election.
There will be no official tabula-
ton of the vote perhaps for as long
as eight days, a constitutional
maximum.
The result itself was a foregone
conclusion, since a half dozen oppo-
sition parties refused to present
candidates, claiming they had in
sufficient time to prepare for the
election.
Unoficial reports said approxi-
mately Sc per cent of those regis
tered cast, their ballots. OF Portu-
gals 100000 population, about a
seventh, or 943,7 ,724, were registered.
The voting, after a 40-day CAM
paign, was orderly. Delegates were
chosen to National Assembly
