BW writers have had a more per- fect background for playwriting than has Gilbert Emery, author af 'he Hero” which the Ram's Head Players will present this week. His stage axperience has taught him the chngiue, the.limitations and the art of the theater. From his novels and | short stories he has gained a remark- able facility in dialogue, and from his experiences during and after the war he has lewrned that a soldier out of uniform Is not any more inspiring than an unfracked bishop. “The Hero” Is his first play was written in 1920, shortly after his return from Frgnee, while his im- pressions of wartare were still vivid his mind. It was first produced at Longacre Theater, in New York March, 1921, for a serics of spe- matinees, with Jetta Goudal, Blanche Friderici, Kathlene McDon- Graham Lucas, Robert Amek and nt Mitchell in the cast. So en- thusiastic was the reception accorded it that Sam H. Harris, the producer, revived it later, with a cast including Fania Marinoff, Robert Ames and Richard Bennett The play is printed in Arthur Hob- son Quinn's “Contemporary American Flays” and in Burns Mantle's “Best of 1921-22"" It was produced S0 soon after the great war that the public, in a measure, falled to grasp its greatness and truth, which the s hailed with enthusiasm be- of its beautitul construction as and its courageous theme and the “The Love Sor;é."

Ruth Clifford, his leading woman in his last big production, “The Tor- nado,” rambled one day to the Marble Creek location near St. Maries, Idaho. it was just an idle jaunt. She want- ed to tramp over the hills and see what beautics were visible. | After a time she grew tired and sat down upon a log, one of a group lying at the bank of the rughing mountain water. Not being a woods- man or a woodsman's daughter, she couldn't read the signs of high water | marks or other evidences of impend- ing fate. That was 3:30 o'cloek In the afternoon At 4 o'clock the water in a reser- voir 10 miles upstream was to be re- leased, flooding the river and carry- ing with it all logs on the banks. | At 3:55 Miss Clifford was seen by a stray lumberjack. Her head was resting against the stump of a limb on the 108, her eves closed. After her rescue, Just ahead of the rush of water which would have car- ried her to certain death, she denied that she had fallen asleep. She had merely sat down to rest. The 16 cahary birds that have been entertaining patrons of the Rialto since Its opening have been replaced by an ornamental lighting fixture in the rotunda of that theater. Tom Moore, who sold the Rialto to Uni- versal Pleturcs Corporation last June, had a sentimental attachment for the feathered songsters and made &r- rangements upon leaving to take the birds with him. | s at Arthur Jordan Plano Co. 13th | 81, 82, $3 and 85.
