Our 30th ovember: THE TOWN WTheatre Note. The average comedy gets most . of its laughs by the old straight- man, or two-line joke method; that is, one character says | some thing .| serious or 1 harmless, and the™ other char- acter makes a retort that 73 elicits either a roar or @ be. MARTA ABBA There is still another way to get laughs in the theater, and wise showmen will tell you this second method is for more effective than the first. This School depends upon the situa- tions for its effects, rather than on single lines. A richly comic situation is almost foolproof. “Tovarich,” the comedy in which Morta Abba and Ru- dolph Forster are featured, that is to be presented ot the Na- tional Theater, starting tomor- row night, is notable for the { fact that olmost every laugh it contains rises directly out of a humorous situation and bright lines, with here and there a touch of pathos to add salt to the entertainment. f ) “ SK!NS YOU LOVE TO babas TOUCH!"” There isn't a woman living who doesn’t feel luxurious with a mound of hand- some Silver Fox thrown over her » shoulders.
