It may) be her business to teach the young idea how to shoot, but she has no business fooling with firearms. No, sir—and ma‘am! | It is this kind of carelessness that @amses most of the trouble in “Your Woman and Mine” at the Klaw The tre. You see it all in a flash-back you might in a movie, shortly before the end of the play. If you saw it) earlier you might have more interest in what goes on, but of course you} have to take it when you can get it Unfortunately, you can't order a play as you would a dinner. But I'm not | going to keep you waiting There's Sally at the teacher's desk trying to keep her mind on her work after hours, yet probably thinking of the handsome young Governor who is coming back at lamplight to breeze her home in. his motor car, Then, A NY member of a small-town school board who happens to see Cleves | pretty unaffected school ma'am, but | she should put on less face powder | before going into the Governor's} arms. Although Malcolm Dungan | hasn't long to live as Cheater ‘he | makes the most of his time by doing | excellent work | But unhappily “Your Woman and| Mine” ts rather gray and old-fash- joned. The tollet-souped detective seems to sum it up when he reminds Clem's wife: “It's a hard world, 2S ERS Tai a are ametes ate 4 darn it cil, along comes Chester g Graves, the village real estate and —z Ae P % insurance agent, who gave her that LED M \ : $150 diamond ring she's wearing, It| = A COMMON Benue and Players should be mentioned that Chester | B Grarter!

Still, Chester keeps hanging around until he gets the truth from Sally. Then he becomes ugly and tries to take the pistol from her 80 as to be able to shoot the Gov- ernor, whose car is approaching like a streak of light across the backdrop. Bally struggles with him like the good airl she is, the gun goes off, and Chester drops dead. ‘The Governor arrives just in time to view the remains sympathetically, and he is holding the pistol when Clem ‘Prewitt comes in to have a look ‘The Governor's tactful verdict !s sui- cide, and Clem nods his head. But about a year later—that's when the play begins, you under- stand—Clem, a member of the Leg- islature, feels he has reason to change his mina because of the Gov- nounces that he has perfected an arrangement with Willlam § Faversham whereby he will direct the | | theatrical ventures of the latter. ‘The | first play in which Mr. Faversham will appear under the new order of things is a melodrama entitled “Out |to Win," produced by Robert Cou: nidge at the Shaftesbury Theatre, London, It was written originally by Roland Pertnee and Dion Clayto Calthorp, but an American version |been made by Guy Bolton.

He even has the poor wom- an get out the family Bible and swear on it, and she isn't feeling any too well, either. All this leads to a terrible scene in the Legislature, with | charges and counter-charges, and the | Governor in a fair way to be brought | up for murder.

Minnie Depree is appealing as the distressed Bible-swearing wife, lool ing and acting as though every bone in her body ached, poor soul! Even greater suffering is suggested by Reginald Barlow as Clem. Byron Beasley takes everything with dig- mity, as a Governor should if he has ‘been properly trained.
