Susan Interested in Janis Story

HOLLYWOOD (NANA) PRO
Queer Sol Siegel is offering the
Elsie Janis movie biography to
Susan Hayward. "And Susan
was telling LIE Roy Prinz, who'll
have a hand in the production,
that she is very interested in
seeing the script. II met Miss
Janis" Susie told me, seven
years ago at goth when George
Cukor wanted her for technical
adviser on a picture he was plan
ming. The production was too
costly, and was never made, but
I've never forgotten Miss Janis.
The funeral for Miss Janis
was by invitation only-accord-

Rubuks Gave
This Group
Its Push

Anyone delving into the origins
of our little theater groups soor
comes upon one thing that mos
Iif not all Of them have in COM
mon. Back there in the beginning
whenever it was, there was some
one around who had imagination
and faith and energy, plus the
willingness to work to get this
thing going.
In the case of the st. Thoma;
Parish Players of st. Thomas
Episcopal Church, the impetus
was provided by Jack and Lorry
Rubak. The Rubaks' service
careers have since taken them tt
other parts of the world, but the
GROUPS members are glad that
they passed this way. For it was
the Rubaks, back in the fall OF
1852, who showed the Parish
Players what they could do with
"a stage in the church building
which had not been used for some
time.
That first play was well re-
Iceived and the audience asked
for more. The audience got more
too, and up until last year the
group produced plays without
benefit of formal organization
constitution, bylaws or Other
Iincidentals. Now everything has
been formalized and the players
operate under the guidance Of
Ian executive board and an execu-
tive committee.
The st. Thomas Parish Play
ers go a bit beyond providing
entertainment, too, and speno
some time seeking more intelli-
gent appreciation of the theatel
and related arts. This activity
involves theater parties, lectures
and the showing of movies or

as to include night field trips

Gently with ITO Hell and Back. I"
1.-THE story of his life and times
during World War II. is with us
again. His battles are much
more obviously fictional in
I"World in My Corner" at the
columbia, but Mr.. Murphy COM
ports himself with distinction.
In fact, he delivers a thor
oughly believable impersonation
of the young man whose slum
origins have given him chip on
his shoulder and a lust for the
material comforts of life. Mr..
Murphy even goes so far as to
give the impression that he has
never before encountered the
one about the boy fighter and
the poor, little rich girl.
If this is true. he has, in this
area at least, led a more shell
tered life than most of us. There
lis really not much freshness in
the screenplay Jack Sher fash
Toned from the story on which
he collaborated with Joseph
Stone. (This is officially known
as an original story" in movie
making circles, but there are
times when man just has to be
careful of his language
This leaves World in My Cor.
|ner" appealing to a rather spe-
Icial audience. What it lacks in
the way of a believable story is
offset by some really good prize
fight sequences. Director Jesse
IHibbs lets his people stand
around and conduct some mighty
idle conversations, but he also
has arranged some effective
brawling in the ring. Much of it
looks more like the real thing
than the limitations too often
encountered in the movies, which
may be traced to the presence
lof Chico Vejar, an often con-
Ivincing fighter.
If you are seeking more than
authentic action in the prize
ring, however, your search will
not be ended at the Columbia.

it clear that he is often close tc

can and does invoke the endlessly
'feshly and golden wealth of tht

from He'll, and materialize AL
exander the Great for the
amusement of Wittemburg's

not have gone worse, Mr.. Gala.
han is always firmly in control
of the feverish emotions of the
character and cody at ease in
Marlowe's vaulting verse.
C. us company, generally
adequate, gives Callahan his
most sterling support in Philip
Bosco's Mephistophelis. Bosco's
evil spirit is Intellectually devil
ish and rather a reserved COM
panion for the man he is help
ing to make fool of, but it is
an effective portrait.
Wagner, clerk to DR.. Faustus,
is in the hands of an amusingly
adroit young actor, Robert Con-
forti; James McGlone is ro-
bustly clownish as Benvolio
who beheads Faustus with no
adverse effect upon his victim;
Florence Luderus is a f1ttingly
solemn chorus; and Molly Holden
is a winningly molten Helen OF

Catholic University's theater
where Marlowe's "Tragical His
tory of Doctor Faustus" is the
Lenten season play choice. For
this purpose, Marlowe'S "Faus-
tus" turns out to be an engross-
ing selection. This, not merely
because of its theme, a tempeStu-
GUS duel at point-blank range
between good and evil, but also
in that it is so obviously a work
of inspiration to some of the
schools most vivid talents.
Marlowe, a man of violent
raptures and despairs, finds him.
self here with four imaginative
collaborators. These are Will
liam Graham, who directed the
play; James D. Warning, "magi-
cal'' fellow himself in the pro-
duction's design; William Gala
han, who plays the title role and
Philip Bosco in the part of
Mephistopheles. Or, make it
five, with Joseph Lewis stunning
costumes.
These are the standouts in a
"Faustus" that calls for cast as
large as a bowl football team and
a group that sometimes seems
equally busy.
Marlowe's "FauStus." a remote
ancestor of Damn Yankees" is
a dazzling summary of his genius
as playwright.
All the mans recklesSneSS as a
free-thinker, his poetic eloquence
and his sense of sardonic comedy
are visible in the play. The more
visible, one surmises. as a result
of the skillful deletion of irrele-
want asides and suggestive of the
fact that no man more than Mar
lowe could understand the sale
Of ones soul to the devil.
Il X x X
Like Shakespeare (but not to
get involved in THAT argument),
Marlowe knew his audience was
not the sort to hold still for a
moral argument. His Faustus'
conflict, therefore, may be one
of conscience but the devils of
power and pride that beset him
give Faustus no rest and spec
tators no time to relax.
X X X X
Callahan, the most mature of
Catholic us actors and hero
of its "Oedipus," "Othello" and
Cherry Orchard" triumphs, is
an impressive Faustus.
This is man undone by his
own scholarly brilliance. a neu-
rotic willing to trade his hope
of Immortality for "a years as
Lucifer's worldly playmate. He
must learn why forbidden knowl-
edge is forbidden, an adventure
in education that may not be
called higher" but is farther
than any other legendary
learner has ever .ventured.
Whatever its ultimate cost, Mr..
Callahan's performance points
the journeys destinations clearly.
The production designed by War;
ing is not able to show Faustus'
dragon ride around the universe,
with Mephistopheles as pilot, but
1t misses few of the others.
True, the explorer of evil is
never quite free from doubt and
