honor and a delight that cannot
fail to inspire any performer.
l Andrews is a superb Mr.. Roberts
a credit to great average Ameri-
can, and he is supported by as
lusty crew as fought fate to a
standstill.
To a man. they are playing "Mr
Roberts" to its original hilt, pro-
fame, unabashed revelation of how
| it was with the men who saw
their jobs as one of transporting
toothpaste and toilet paper
through the watery wastes of the
Pacific. No group of players ever
created a more vivid impression
Iof enjoying the ribald jests that
kept them from going mad with
boredom.
This even created the vaguely
uneasy impression at times that
they worry less about the tempo
of the play than they should to
get the final curtain down at a
reasonable time.
If this sounds even family
Ichurlish, consider it never was
said.
The surprising freshness of mfr.
Roberts" probably should not be
surprising at all. 1t stems from
the fact that the Heggen-Logan
characters are solid individuals
They are an enormously busy lot
of men, fighting listlessness with
a fury that would do credit to men
fighting a more material enemy
They are led in this fight by
Ia remarkable human being in
mfr. Roberts" He likes his fell
low men and the affection is mu-
ltual. He respects their rights to
turn telescopes and other visual
aids on nurses quarters on a
nearby island, to hate the tyran-
nical captain, to wreck any shore
ION which they are given shore
leave, and their right not to work
when work is really not impor-
Itant.
Anything they can do to turn
wretchedness into a wonderful
time-especially for audiences-is
all right with him. The fact is
that he will help them in all ways
possible, especially fighting, back
with the captain, helping the
ships doctor to make and con-
sumo explosive alcohols, and earn
ing an "E" for excellence in their
official duties.
The dialogue accompaniment of
these antics is a tribute to the
blunt simplicity and expressive :
ness of the English language. All
three-letter words are calle q
three-letter words and ever so
many others of more letters come
dangerously close to the same
blunt treatment.
It would have been sheer injus-
tice to such an honest, decent and

Heggen-JoShua Logan drama OF
Navy life in the Pacific in 1945
This is a play with everything,
high and low comedy. truth that
is frequently fine and always
blunt, and pride in the uproarious
energy, resourcefulness and indeli-
cate decency Of American seamen
No play in years, maybe never,
has provided a more hilarious
closeup of that side of war which
produces heroes in mobs, instead
of in small clusters of two or
three. Its characters are the crew
Of the now famous AK-601, men
who triumphed over the boredom
Of transporting equipment to the
relatively fighting few who tri-
umphed over the Japanese.
It is one of the theater's fine.
