A—18 = AMUSEMENTS. “Boy Meets Girl” To Play National After “Othello” Hilarious Josh at Hollywood Scheduled for December 21—Marsha Hunt to Visit Capital. BY JAY CARMODY. E “Boy Meets Girl” is scheduled XCEPT for next week when Othello will dutifully destroy Desdemona, as he has been doing for centuries, the outlook.is merry on the local stage and screen. It is the merrier, indeed, for the announcement that for the National Theater the week of December 21. Now, those who give and those who receive the wrong Christmas presents will have some place where they can go to laugh and forget it all. If any one needs to be told after its year's run in New York, that is the sort of thing “Boy Meets Girl” hap-« pens to be. It joshes Hollywood. Some of the joshing is merciless. More of it has a quality of tenderness that be- trays its authors, Bella and Samuel Spewack, as sympathetic citizens of that often abused community. The Spewacks should be sympathetic and understanding. For five years they have bartered genius for gold in the movie capital. Both the Spewacks and Hollywood have profited by the ex-| change. It is a road company that will throw scoopsful of laughter at “Boy Meets Girl” audiences here. But George Ab- bott, producer of the piece, swears it | is a good company. As good as the Broadway unit, says Mr. Abbott. Bet- ter, he adds as an after thought. He selected every member of both casts, 80 he should know, even if he was speaking for just Washington pub- lication. “Boy Meets Girl” turns an amused eye upon the formula of picture-mak- ing; namely, boy meets girl, loses girl, gets her back again. Very, very funny. A sort of Hollywood laugh which an- swers some of the sneers which the stage so often turns upon the motion picture industry. A laugh which says, “Sure we're funny, but don't take it #0 hard and so seriously, We don't.” * ok X & AND. speaking of mirth, it is the major product that will be man- ufactured on the stage of the National this week by Beatrice Lillie, Bert Lahr, Reginald Gardiner and com- pany. Boston and Philadelphia re- viewers have used up handfuls of ad- Jjectives ending in “est” in their de- scriptions of the first big musicale re- Vue to reach the local stage this sea- son. Ben Atweil’s brief case so bulged with tear sheets of notices of “The Show Is On” that there barely was room left for pictures of the princi- pals. Mr. Atwell, one of the oldest and wisest press representatives in the business, selects tear sheets when they carry what he calls a good story. He had so many this time. The pretty shoulders of Gracie Bar- rie, once of the Earle Theater, carry the vocal burden of the Vincent Min- nelli-Lillie-Lahr show. Paul Haakon and Mitzie Mayfair are the dance duo. To them Washington needs no intro- duction. * x k & MARSHA HUNT'S coming to town. She will be here Thursday. Harry Hunter, Paramount’s big man here, Jjoins Carter Barron in saying so. S8he is coming in connection with the sil- ver jubilee celebration of Adolph Zukor. Using just a teeny-weeny bit of your imagination, you can almost make pretty Miss Hunt a local girl. Her grandmother, Mrs. Mary L. Hunt, lives at 1752 Crurch street, and her pop, E. R. Hunt, has been in town for sev- eral weeks. No end of excitement is being conceived right now in con- nection with Miss Hunt's visit. After Miss Hunt leaves, her picture, “Col- lege Holiday,” starring Jack Benny, is coming to either the Capitol or the Palace. Can't say which just now. 'IT's BEEN a long time since Leon | = Errol was in Washington. In per- son, that is. Unless the records are | incorrect, the last local stage upon which Errol was funny (he always is | funny) was Poli’s. Now Poli’s, in case |you are nmew in Washington or very | young, was a great and gawky, but warm-hearted, old theater at Fifteenth and the Avenue. For years and years Poli’s was expected to fall before the march of Federal architecture. When it finally did come down, brick by brick, Washington had shed a great many tears and stored away enough love for it to keep its memory as green as the triangle which now marks the spot. But, to get back to Leon Errol. Mr. Errol is not so young as once he was, but the girls who always have sur- rounded him are no different than their predecessors. They are young and beautiful, and Dan Terrill's pic- tures prove it. “Hollywood Follies of 1937, the Errol show, is full of comedy, dancing, music and so darned costly to pro- duce that even drama reporters may pay their way. May! * % x x IP‘ YOU are looking for drama at this season instead of so much mirth and music, Hardie Meakin will have it for you at Keith’s. As soon as Rembrandt, the current pretty but mildly placid feature, ends its run, there will be “We Who Are About to Die” at the Fifteenth street house. It is built around the miscar- riage of justice theme which gave such power to “Fury” and to the later “Winterset.” Incidentally “Winter- set” is still getting better notices than audiences, but there are those who believe it yet will come into its deserved heritage of popularity. * x % x COME the day after Christmas and “Pinnocchio” will spread its magic on the stage of the National Theater. It will be the third play in the current Children’s Theater se- ries. Matilde Young says it will be incredible, exciting and most en- tertaining. It always has been since C. Collodi wrote the story long, long ago. * x X % Bob Pitkin, well remembered for his work with the ill-fated Odeon Players and the much better-fated Willard Players, now plays happily and successfully in vaudeville in Chicago. In one noteworthy performance here, Pitkin was associated with Harry MacArthur, starred (four) in “The | | Bride the Sun Shines On.” Unfor- | gettable! LR ARIETY CLUB members, eating free and voting the same way, will elect five members to the Board of Governors at a luncheon session this afternoon. A chief barker, two assistant barkers, treasurer and sec- retary will have been chosen when the last vote is counted. ST. CLAIRE AND YVONNE CAPTURE GAYETY CROWD Eerie “Dance of Death” Registers High—Mike Sachs in Fine Form. IKE SACHS is at the Gayety this week, but since Mike is usually the recipient of principal mention, he probably won't mind if St. Claire and ‘Yvonne are accorded initial plaudits this once. Although billed down low, this dance team is presenting one of the most meritorious terpsichorean items seen in many a day on the good colonel’s historic boards. It is an eerie routing, “The Dance of Death,” garnering generous response—cleverly wrought symbolism. The striking and completely gruesome makeup of St. Claire deserves particular approba- tion. . Genial Mike Sachs is in fine form, *“mugging” as ever and scoring with each and every “mug.” Of course, his perennial girl friend, Alice Ken- nedy, is back to defend her standing as one of the best straight women in burlesque, with Lew Petel also on hand to render invaluable service in the scenes. The other laugh extractor is that odd person, “Coo Coo” Mor- risey, whose antics contribute consid- erably to the general merriment. Sam Gould adds acceptable feeding to his singing chore, and Sam is one of the circuit’s better singers. By the way, the Sunday afternoon die-hards liked Morrisey’s drum specialty very much. The feminine revelators number two, Miss Ina Thomas and Miss Lil- lian Dixon, who handle that pleas- ingly inevitable feature of the pro- gram to good advantage. One blond, one brunette, a nicely balanced array with each charmer appearing twice. (Note to the fashion editor: Miss Dixon wears a satin affair with cape and hood that is hereby recommended for all winsome lasses like Miss Dixon.) Ruth Brown, dancing with the en- semble, offers a fast military tap and & rather ordinary acrobatic effort. —C. A M. e MURDER THEORY PROBED IN NAVY SEAMAN’S DEATH Body of C. E. Hagen, U. 8. 8. Tul- sa Sailor, Washed Ashore at Amoy, China. BY the Associated Press. AMOY, China, December 7.—The body of Carl Eric Hagen, son of K. 'W. Hagen of Beverly Hills, Calif., was ‘washed ashore here today. Because of severe head wounds on Hagen's head, police investigated the theory he had been robbed and mur- dered. Hagen, s seaman on the U. 8. 8. Tulss, had been missing since No- vember 30. His body was found on Kulangsui Island, the foreign settlement here. Former Moderator Dies. ELMSDALE, Nova Scotia, December 7 (®)—Rev. D. O. Mackay, former MONTGOMERY PLAYERS’ COMEDY FAIR SUCCESS “Laburnum Grove” Funny Situations, but Timing of Dialogue Is Poor. B. PRIESTLEY'S “Laburnum * Grove" is not quite an actorproot play. There isn’t much real meat in it, though to be sure, it has some near- hilarious dialogue and Mr. Priestley has contrived some sure-fire comedy situations. In consequence, the Mont- gomery Players’ presentation of the play Saturday night at Bethesda- Chevy Chase High School pleased the audience very much at intervals and at other times did not seem to be all what it might have been. The main difficulty encountered by the nearby Maryland thespians was the same facing any amateur group undertaking production of a light farce. The story of a London suburbanite who suddenly startles his family, which had considered him a rather dull old bird, by announcing he is engaged in the business of inflation (by printing bank notes), is one which requires a brisk tempo that throws lines at the cus- tomers like machine gun bullets. Good lines will be funny, to be sure, but not as funny as they should be, if delivered in a manner which is slightly more recitative than fast and furious. So the Montgomery Players’ principal E‘mmnus Saturday was in their tim- Has Many Otherwise they comported them- selves in a finished and well-schooled manner (except for a collection of English accents as varied as the dia- lects of the Chinese language). The best of the group was Martha Willlams, Who is nice to look upon, who has a voice and diction that fall pleasantly upon the ear and whose skill is such that she was the focal point of at- tention in almost every scene in which she appeared. Also carrying a con- siderable portion of the burden was Frederick Kerby, playing the role Edmund Gwenn had on the profes- sional stage, at times seeming to fall prey to the tendency to slow up and let the pace drop too much, but most of the time performing most efficiently. Others in the cast were Pauline Whitacre, Marjorie H. Hathaway, J. A, Bishop, Richard Walsh, Irving M. Day and J. H. Litzelman. Doris Dewey Day directed. —H. M. —WHERE TO DINE. Leon Errol, popular stage and screen comedian, and S: i i unnie O’'Dea head the cast of Errol’s “Hollywood Follies of 1937,” new stage revue planned especially for motion picture house pres- entation, which will be the Earle’s stage feature next week, starting Friday. Capital’s Drama Groups Civi;: Theater Thumps Its Tubs Over a Publicity Gag Which Failed. BY HARRY MacARTHUR. OU just can’t down the Wash- ington Civic Theater’s pub- licity department. They had a swell idea for a publicity stunt in connection with the forth- coming production of “The Petrified Forest” and now when the gag didn't come off according to schedule they begin to brag about its failure. Anyhow, this is what happened— or didn't happen—or something. One of the important characters in “Petrified Forest” is Duke Mantee, a public enemy a la Dillinger. He is so much a la Dillinger that Hum- phrey Bogart, who played the role in New York, was made up to look just like the famed public enemy’s twin brother—if he had had a twin brother. So the Civic Theater tub-thumpers had an idea. They would send their own Duke Mantee down to the De- partment of Justice to be finger- printed, shown the Dillinger relics and lectured on the wages of sin. The idea, of course, involved the pho- tographing of H. H. Bratsburg, who will be the local Duke Mantee, while he was being fingerprinted, shown the relics and lectured on the wages of sin. Then the photographs might accidentally have found their way into newspapers. Permission was obtained from Jus- tice—or part of Justice. Mr. Brats- burg, with Don Hoffend and Malvin Plunkett, who will be a ocouple of minor gangsters in the play, went to the Department of Justice, after maintaining they had no criminal past that might be brought out to embarrass somebody. Then, when they arrived, it turned out that higher Justice had over- ruled the permission-granting Justice and there would be no fingerprinting and no photographing. Mr. Brats- burg, Mr. Hoffend and Mr. Plunkett were disgruntled no end. They had taken time off from work for the gag. The photographer on hand was exceedingly digruntled. And the pub- licity department was practically in tears. But the publicity department went back to its office, sat down in its swivel chair and pondered deeply, finally seeing the bright side of things. Maybe it was all for the best, decided the publicity depart- ment. Maybe Mr. Bratsburg’s per- formance will be all the more en- thusiastically criminal, since he never has been fingerprinted and lectured on tne wages of sin. Thursday night Washington will have its first presentation of “Yellow Jack,” when Georgetown's Mask and Bauble Club stages the Sidney How- ard-Paul de Kruif play at the school’s Gaston Hall. Frank Miller, who has been an active member of the group for four years and who was prominent in the production of George M. Cohan’s “The Tavern” two years ago, has the leading role in the dramatization of medical science’s battle to discover the cause and cure of yellow fever. Others in important parts are Myles McCahill, Matthew McDermitt, Ran- iel O’Donovan, William Driscoll and Mark Drugan. “Yellow Jack” is being directed by William E. Shea, the- school’s regular dramatic coach. This week also brings “Moor Born,” Dan Totheroh’s play about the Bronte sisters, which will be played Thursday and Priday nights by students of the King-Smith Playhouse at their studio playhouse in Rock Creek Park.

DOGS “STUDY”” BLIND School to Bring Masters and Pets Together. DENVER (#)—A school soon will open here where eight blind persons and eight German shepherd dogs will study each other. ‘Then, acquainted with each other’s temperaments, the dogs will become “eyes” for their blind masters. ‘The animals were especially trained in Morristown, N.

They were brought to Denver through the Colorado State Blind Commission to be sold, at nominal cost, to blind persons who desired them. 5070 1904, | AEM!_,E,S T “Go mst-!!_lu N CLYDE LUCAS & ORCH.

BR!AK!NG through the reserve of ‘Washington's sophisticated juve- niles after a somewhat coldly received injtial scene, Ethel Barrymore Colt's Jitney Players managed, as they un- folded their own adaptation of “Ad- ventures in Oz,” to transport a thou- sand or so kiddies from the academic confines of Roosevelt High School Sat- urday morning to that astounding land of magic conceived by Frank Baum. A dramatization by Pendleton Har- rison and Gretchen Dortch from Baum's “The Royal Book of Oz,” the story is centered around the Scare- crow, who, when the Wizard decides to compile a Social Register for Prin- cess Ozma’s subjects, inds himself to be the only one unable to produce a family tree. Disturbed over his ano- nymity, he goes in search of his ances- tors, thereby involving the whole of Oz's bizarre citizenry, from the Cow- ardly Lion to Scraps, the patchwork girl, in the complications arising when he discovers himself to be the emperor of a mongoloid kingdom. Ultimately brought back to Oz by the power of the Wizard's Magic Belt, he foils his two treacherous sons who are plotting to kill him, and returns with a new addition to the Oz mena- gerie in the forms of a questless knight who has never slain a dragon, a per- fect Oriental stooge, and an interesting animal called the Doubtful Dromedary. Investing the part of the Scarecrow with an adult sense of humor which made the straw gentleman equally en- tertaining to grown-up and child alike, Douglas Rowland turned in easily the best performance of a cast which was remarkably well chosen—with the pos- sible exception of Miss Colt, who seemed & trifie too mature for the role of Dorothy. Scraps, perfectly done by Helen Dunlop, Jack Harling's Cowardly Lion, and Pen Harrison’s Wizard all lent distinction to a fine portrayal of one of childhood's best-loved tales, the whole being enhanced no little by strict adherence in set and costume to John R. Neill's original drawings. —R. C. R.
