NEW YORK.
Edwin Lester turned an idea
which sounded fine on paper into
sparkling operetta success when he
produced the excellent Song of
Norway" using as a musical base
the compositions of Edward Grieg
and adding lyrics and a libretto.
Last week he attempted to repeat
his earlier accomplishment by put
ting a lot of Victor Herbert music
together in a new book and lyrics,
calling the hybridization Gypsy
Lady" The result is dullish af-
fair.
Lester assigned Arthur Kay to
adapt the music from THE Fortune
Teller" and The Serenade," put
Robert Wright and George Forrest,
who did a similar stint with Song
of Norway" to add lyrics, and
Henry Myers, sometime screen
writer, to fashion a completely new
libretto.
About the only component which
comes out In decent style is the Vic
tor Herbert music which seems to
be indestructible. But the adoption
isn't anything approaching the
stature of the job Wright and For
rest accomplished with Song of
Norway" lacking a brisk fluidity
which keeps things moving along in
bright musical style. The various
Herbert tunes come out of this
melange in their naturally melodi-
Gus manner, notably Gypsy Love
Song" which incidentally retains
the original Harry B. Smith lyrics.
Tasteful Production.
Physically, the production is
tastefully arranged, with admirable
sets and costumes by Boris Aronson
and Miles White. The dances are
good, and are executed in smart
fashion, and the choral groups do
nicely with their songs.
The story Of Gypsy Lady" is a
turgid mish-mash about a gypsy
girl who aspires to be lady and
almost marries marquis; but how
the producer could describe it as a
new" book is quite beyond compre-
hension. 1t contains one operetta
cliche after another and it's at

Stock Work
Still the Best
Training
BY the Assoeioied prsss


Movie Director Ray Taylor, who
has seen many screen celebrity
come and go during his 25 years in
the business. believes the best place
to learn to act today is the same as
it was all the time-a stock COM
pany.
Il don't mean a one-week engage
ment, either" he said. Il mean at
least two years in stock
Taylor pointed to Margaret Lind
say. co-star with Jon Hall on his
picture, THE Vigalantes Return" as
a good example of an actress sea-
soned by stage training before she
entered pictures.
1t was much easier to crash the
movies and even reach the big
money brackets in the old days, he
continued. ANY girl with pretty
face could break in 25 years ago.
You taught her few mechanics of
acting, pushed her in front of a
camera and that was Just about all.
Sure" he agreed, "a lot of So
called acting in those days was pure
ham. But the public wasn't SO
fussy."
Taylor recalled that movies then
were regarded as a poor relation of
the legitimate stage, and any actor,
famous or fading, who dared invade
the celluloid realm was regarded as
fallen woman"
When the screen became vocal,
the situation changed.
Its not enough just to memorize
script" Taylor said. Reading
lines with proper impact requires
training-stage training" he de-
clared.
II recommend the stock company
rather than the big time theater as
training school for the screen.
Roles are varied, a much wider
range of experience is gained"
Taylor knows his subject. He used
to manage stock troupes in the
Middle West and New England prior
to 1921.

for the time being.
OF course, if Mr.. Bricker should be
knocked off in the senatorial race-de-
feated by Senator Huffman, Senator
Taft wouldn't have to worry any further
about who would be Ohio's favorite son
in the race for the Republican presiden-
tial nomination in 1913. Mr.. Bricker
would be through. No one is suggesting
for a moment, however, that Senator
Taft and his friends are going to let
Mr. Bricker down in the coming election.
Anyway, Mr. Taft does not play it that
way.
Once this senatorial election is over
successfully for Mr.. Bricker It the real
struggle will begin. If Mr.. Bricker should

So the matter has not entered the cam

In the opinion of some of the promi-
nent Republicans in Ohio, the Taft
Bricker candidacy for the presidential
nomination will have to be settled early
in 1947, if either is to have chance
for the nomination. Already friends
of Harold E. Stassen, Gov. Warren and
Gov. Dewey. for example, are on the
move, looking for delegates to the 1913
national convention. Is Ohio to stand
aside, they ask, while this maneuvering
is going on? They point out that Mr..
Bricker declined to announce his candi-
dacy and to start fishing for delegates
in 1914 until it was far too late to
catch up with the fast-f1ying Gov.
Dewey. They don't want to be left in
such a position two years hence.
