Now she has turned to Congress, hoping that Congress will legalize that which has been de- diared grossly wrong. She has taken a superior attitude toward the com-I plaining states and even toward thel highest court in the country. Appar- ently Chicago is above every law and court. Heretofore the contraversy has in- volved only the mid-western states, but the situation has become so badf that it threatens to involve' the entire nation shortly.

Now, about those examinations- "ANDROCLES A)ND THE LION" A review, by Joseph Kruger. The Theatre Guild of New York ad- vertises George Bernard Shaw's "Androcles And The Lion" as its pro- duction at the Klaw theatre, and then startles the audience by opening the performance with Shaw's "The M\lan Of Destiny," perhaps believing that Shaw should be administered slowly. And, strangely enough, the unadver- tised "The Man Of Destiny" surpassedF the better known comedy in actual presentation, 'nd this despite the fact that "Androcles And The Lion" was performed in a most creditable man- ner. Ton Powers, cast as Napoleon in the first play, and Claire Eames, act- ing in the roleof t4e Lady, were su- preme in their res ective parts. In a play that is practically devoid of ac- tion, these two artists engaged in aj battle of wits which was so well con- sumated that the high degree of in- terest aroused by the opening scene was maintained throughout the per- formance. The parts of the Innkeeper and the British Captai 'were interpreted with the same splendid quality that marked the work of the two leading charac- ters, while the settings, although un-I changed throughout the performance, were well done, blending in perfect harmony with the work of the actors. Claire Eames played the leading female role in "Androcles And The Lion" but her work failed to approach her accomplishments in the first pro- duction. Perhaps it was due to the fact that the part of Lavinia did not offer the same possibilities as that of the Lady. Tom Powers also took part in the second play, playing the part of the Captain, but he too suffered by the change of roles. Androcles, Ferro- vius and the Lion were enacted with considerable skill, but the work of the actors in these parts, allied with a superior Shaw play, was oversha- dowed by the splendid acting of Tom Powers and Claire Eames in "The Man Of Destiny." ALEXANDER WOOLCOTT "Smart-aleck" Woolcott, they call him; and next to the great George Nathan, along with Kenneth Mac- Gowan, he has stood in the younger generation as the finest dramatic crit- ic of the New York press. His en- emies, the actors, have claimed that he is willing to twist a Duse into a rag for the sake of a clever epigram- all Forty-Second street waits for his mot on each new production-but for all their venom, his wit and apprecia- tion have always stood the test of an intelligent prejudice.
