Walter Hampton, the Shakespearian
actor who will appear next Wednes-
day at the Whitney, is one of the
greatest, if not the greatest, of the
living actors who have .presented
Hamlet, Sout'hern and Forbes-Robert-
son being his only rivals:
"Hampden's Hamlet scintilates like
a diamond," declares the Dial, while
newspaper critics express sentiments"
similar to that of Mr. Louis Defoe
of the New York World, who says:
"Mr. Hampton's ,Hamlet is an ex-
ceptional feat, rich, in poetic beauty,
intellectual vigor, and dramatic pow-
er." Popular success has accompanied
critics' favor and Mr. '1Hampton l as
enjoyed' the longest Broadwty run in
a Shakespearian play since Edwin
Booth fascinated New York 4udiences
with his remarkable genius.
Artist To Play
In Union Show
Conspicuous on the Spotlight pro-
gram is John S. Wilson, ex-'18, who
will elaborate in one act the stunts
that, according to some, have immor-
talized his name in the tap room of'
the Union.
The act ,which "Sandy" will have
will typify the slogan of this year's
Spotlight ."Different." There have
been many "jazz" artists in practical-
ly, every campus performance since
1916, but E. S. Larsen, '20, says that
"Sandy's" acrobatics and recitations
will be something new.
Wilson was active in campus mus-
ical circles before the war and this,
will mark his fjrst appearance in
a show of this kind since his return
from the service.

THE MAJESTIC
Nothing but favorable criticism can
be made on "The Miracle Man,",
George. Loan Tucker's latest produo-
tion which will be shown again today
at the Majestic. The directing, act-
ing, and subject matter ma#e this
moving picture stand out from other
recent releases.
Mr. Tucker creates an atmosphere
so powerful that only a few minutes
after the first scene has been thrown
on the, screen the audience is uncon-
sciously or involuntarily drawn into
the spirit of the picture. Thomas
Meigham' and Betty Thompson inter-
pret their roles in a convincing and
consistent manner, while the rest of
the cast perform with almost equal
merit. The nature and presentation
of the story is such that the element
of spiritual mystery intermingled with
the sordid and the beautiful realities
of life, seem to have been focused and
reproduced.
