Music And Drama 1'. BETTER ONE-ACT PLAYS IN THIS YEAR'S CONTEST. Professor 0t .. Campbell, whose ,pleasingly avid interest in the dra- ma, generally and locally, induced him to consent to undergo the trials and tortures of a judge two: successive years, has interesting t lassjJed B' ii ng R comparative remarks to make on - the results of this year's contest. He states unhesitatingly and un- fearfully as the firm, sincere opin- ion of the board of judges that "the plays as a whole were very much, better than last year and the final bill for production should be more' varied, more attractive, and moref mature both as to intrinsic quality and treatment." Describing the ramifications of the judging process, Prof. Camp- bell had some remarks that might' shed light on the comparative qual- ity of the efforts last year and this. "The process of elimination was far more difficult this year, the conflict of individual viewpoints, being at times almost intense, with each play requiring an elaborate justification from its partisan." Contrasted with his remark of lastI year to the effect that a speedy judgment was quite posible be- cause most of the plays were so ob- viously bad, this statement of dfffi- culty becomes significant. "The Subjects," Prof. Campbell said, "had a distinctly wider range, deriving neither from literary tra- dition or facile observation (such as the prevalence of bootleg plays last year). There was certainly a more firm intellectual grasp of the subject matter bespeaking matur- ity of conception. The authors had! not only observed but intelligently commented on their material. Thej realization on the part of the au- thors of the need of particularising the narrative to fit the dramatic ' form was more consistently pres- ent." I New York Stock.
