By S. R. WALLACE
He enjoys kissing Madge Evans.
He's good looking and sophisticat-
ed, but something of the boy who
lives down the block. His eyes are
hazel, his hair brown, and he is well
built as an actor should be. but he
has political views. He lives John
Kohler's life on the Lydia Mendels-
sohn stage in "The World We Make"
-but he'll have you know he is quite
a different individual as Herbert Rud-
ley.
For instance, as to romantic tech-
nique: "The part I am taking in your
Dramatic Season play requires the
portrayal of a sensitive, gentle char-
acter. I play him as an actor is re-
quired to, with my mind, body and
emotions. But I can't say that I
would react to his situations in the
same way." This with sincerity.
Even in the romantic scenes?
"Well, of course, in those I admit
I am to be envied playing opposite
Miss Evans. However, the man who
kisses her in the play is John Koh-
ler."
You mean that isn't your own tech-
nique?
"I don't think so." Embarrassed
laugh. "An actor has no definite ro-
mantic technique . . . each charac-
ter requires different movements and
expression. And the director of a
play has a good deal to do with de-
termining that expression. Kohler
expresses unsophistication."
Oh. Are you sophisticated?
"Uh-I've read a few books." Slight
reddening and tie rearrangement.
.How long have you been in the
theatre?
"Ten years. I left Temple Univer-
sity when I won a scholarship with
the Eve LeGallienne's Fourteenth
Street Reportory Theatre."
What are some of the plays you've
appeared in?
" Romeo and Juliet', 'Abe Lincoln
in Illinois', 'Brother Rat', and as you
know in Broadway's 'The World We
Make'."
Is Broadway as immoral as Rich-
ard Temple, another actor here for
the Season, said it is?
"There is as much immorality in
New York as there is in Ann Arbor."
Stated with muchdconviction.
Well! That doesn't reflect very
well on people here.
"It's no reflection at all. I mean
simply that people have the
same motivations anywhere. Per-
haps Broadway is so misrepresented

We have comraderie here.
"I suppose so. But an actress will
come breezing into the theatre after
a few days of rehearsal with 'darling'
or 'honey' on her lips for most of the
men in the cast."
Really? Well, coeds use the same
expressions.
"That may be, but on Broadway
the follow-up is different." Broad
grin.
Oh. (And a broad gulp on our
part).

Martha Scott
To Play Lead
In"Our Tftwn'
With her appearance as the femi-
nine lead in the cinema version of
Thornton Wilder's Pulitzer prize-
winning play, "Our Town", Martha
Scott, '32, is making her Hollywood
debut.
While a student here, Miss Scott
was associated with Play Production
and participated actively in many
dramatic activities. Following grad-
uation, she took a department store
job, was soon signed by the civic
repertory theatre in Detroit, and
played in tabloid versions of Shake-
speare at the Chicago's World Fair.
Born in a small town herself,
Jamesport, Mo., Miss Scott made her
Broadway appearance as the small-
town girl in "Our Town", a perform-
ance which dramatic critics acclaimed
for its delicate beauty.
She is now living in Hollywood,
working on her next role, that of
Emma in Jane Austen's novel.
