How Much Is Known
About Shakespeare

SO WORTHY A FRIEND:
WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE
BY Charles Norman. (Rinehart;
S4.)
This biography of the great bard
is scholarly, carefully documented
and yet easy to read. Mr.. Norman
writes with lucid charm, never pc
dantically. Since the lack OF in
formation about Shakespeare al
ways has been well advertised, it
may come as a surprise to many
readers to find in this book that so
much is known about him. Mr..
Norman dismisses with scant space
the theorists who tried to make a
myth of Shakespeare. To attribute
his art to some one else, it would
be necessary, the biographer points
out, to assume that such prominent
contemporaries as Ben Jonson and
the Earl of Pembroke, as we'll as
leading publishers of the day, joined
in a gigantic fraud when they
published the folio edition of the
plays. Such theories. he adds,
must now be seen for what they
are: Without substance, like an
empty glove held in a gloved hand"

OF Special Interest
To Woshinqtonions
THREE GENERATIONS

THREE GENERATIONS
BY Katherine Burton. (Long-
mans, Green G. Co.; $780,
Mrs. Burton has written a mar
rative of a family that had PROM
inent place in American history.
The story is ably presented and
should be of particular interest to
Washington readers. The book is
centered around three women. The
first is Maria Boyle Ewing, wife of
Thomas Ewing, a Senator from
Ohio who became the first Score
tary of the Interior, under Presi-
dent Zachary Taylor. Their daugh-
ter Ellen married Gen. William
Tecumseh Sherman. Mrs. Sher-
man was noted for her charitable
activities in Washington. The
Shermans' daughter, Mrs. Minnie
Fitch, was a leading Capital hostess.
The women were devout Catholics,
and a son of Gen. and Mrs. Sher-
man, Tom, became a Jesuit priest.
Mr.. Ewing had died a Catholic.
The general never embraced the
faith, but encouraged his wife's
church charities and often went to
mass with her. &C. B. j.

MADMAN'S MEMORY
BY Roger Vercel. (Rondon7
House; S2.50.)
FFVlEWFU UV
ROBERT K. WALSH,

To book and movie public sur
feited by often doubtful psychiatric
scripts this novel from France brings
understandable realism with har-
rowing human conflict.
1t is the drama of a young widows
spiritual struggle against the men,
ory of strange husband she did
not love. 1t is the story of her
mental and physical effort to free
herself from a mother -in-law whose
possessive love for dead son finally
goes beyond the brink of sanity.
Francoise la Hourie tries long In
vain to leave her half-crazed
mother-in-la Through weakness
more than through strength she
turns aside a temptation to marry
the bold Mauriere. Eventually she
seeks refuge with Herve, man who
lives in the memory of a dead sister
she resembles. The climax has an
element of futility and it is not
wholly unexpected. But it Is none
theless startling.
Roger Vercel, described as a
"quiet, bespectacled provincial pro-
fessor who has risen to the very
front rank of contemporary French
novelists," has a rare gift of SEN
sitive description as we'll as com.
pelling narrative. The English trans
latiop by Ware Bradley Wells does
not seem brilliant but 1t demon
strates the excellence of the author
as a thought-provoking story teller

the present instance. Jim Berry,
man has gotten out the seventh in
what has become a family SERIES
usually poking fun at himself while
his wife and son join in the laugh
ter; this year he has most un-
fattering self -caricature, seated
hopefully at the fireplace, beside
an empty stocking.
Eleanor Parke Gusts is one of her
own color photographs, a harbor
scene. An outstanding Washington
painter, she has given much of her
time in recent years to pictorial
photography. incidentally, a hand
some book by Miss Custis, "Compo-
sition and Pictures dealing with
both paintings and photographs,
has just been published. 1t will be
reviewed at an early date)
These are but a few of many in
dividual greetings made by artists
for their friends, and worthy of COL
lectors' attention.
Evening star., 1947-12-28

Special achievements of George
town heroes are noted: unusual
plays and games received due recog-
milton. Mr.. Bealle deals at length
with the 1894 Thanksgiving Day
game between Georgetown and the
old Columbia Athletic Club, then
and even to this day rated as the
roughest game ever played in this
country. In fact, it was so bad
that out of it and similar struggles
came eventual good to the sport.
Every man who ever played en- a
Blue and Gray team is listed; every
game is described and. ii possible,
the full lineup is given.
The author even goes so far in
his research as to explain the origin
of the Hilltop battle cry of "Hoya,
Hoya, Saxa:" That this feat Is
both difficult and ambitious is in
dicated by the answer given to the
question by a recent president of the
university, He simply stated that
he did not know and that he doubted
if any one did.
