T WOULD be impossible to represent fairly the efforts of the Drama League players in their three-fold production at the Little Theater, last night except in terms of which the public has already grown skeptical. But in consideration of the principles which the Drama League has elected to represent In' Portland for the advance ment of what is really worth while in drama, their work Is entitled to whole hearted and unconditional approval. All three of the plays wera-more or ess experimental. It Is true. One was given for the first time on any stage, another for the seoond time, and the third, a well-known one-act thriller by Bernard Shaw, was given for the first time, at any rate, before a Port- and audience. It must be remembered that experiment with stage effects in the serious hope of contributing to the drama is an Important item of the Drama League manifesto. The experl mental nature of the pieces last night. moreover, was a factor in the Interest which was given them. Amateur Weaknesses Lacking. Because of the ambitious programme which Mrs. Eleanor Sanford Large had outlined for the rehearsal of the players under tier direction, tho audience missed the usual amateur weaknesses and - shortcomings and settled down easily to share in the real Interest of the event. None of the actors, nor any of the stage decorations, called for apology, the only possible shortcomings of the plays springing rather from ex cese of zeal and earnestness than lack of taste or intelligence. More notice able than these were the painstaking discernment of the producers in fheir use of stage effects and the thoughtful- ness or the players In overcoming the ill-considered lmpulsas which mar the performance of. most amateurs. Chief In interest, perhaps, was the dramatic version of the story, "Baltha ear," which comes from the pen ox Ana tole France. While the story alone lends itself to the unqualified enjoy ment of the unsophisticated, it contains many delicate touches to which only a finely adjusted intellect will be eensl tlve. Balthaaar, Llng of Ethiopia, goes with his sage, Sembobitis, and his eunuch, Menkera, to the city of Sheba, where he intends to draw up a com mercial treaty with Queen Balkls. After a few moments in her presence he of fers her half of his kingdom in ex change for the feather . which reposes on her breast. IToraretfulaesa la aousht. After being repulsed by Queen Bal kls, Balthaaar returns to his kingdom and seeks the forgetfulness of his pas sion in a study of the planets. The sage, Sembobitis, teaches him, among other things which are useful to know. that the stars are fixed like studs In the vault of heaven and that "there are five planets, namely: Bel, Merodach and Nebo, which are male; Sin and Mylitta, which are female." "This is the knowledge which I wish to acquire," says Balthasar. "While I am studying astronomy I can think neither of Balkls nor of anything else on this earth. The sciences are benevo lent; they prevent men from thinking. Bembobltia. give me the knowledge which destroys sentiment among men and I will raise thee up to great honor. To complete the story, Balthasar dis covers a new star and casts a horo scope of the one who shall come to life underneath its light. He follows the star toward Bethlehem and on the way meets the other magi, Gaspar and Mel- choir. Staging Is OriglnaL The development of this story on the stage presented many Interesting prob lems and called upon the producers to exercise much originality In lighting and costuming. Balthasar is played by Dale Hinkle, while Imogene Seton, who has per formed in Drama League plays on sev eral other occasions, appeared in the role of Balkls. Queen of Sheba. The liyle triangular farce, by Shaw, "How Ho Lied to Her Husband," was played by Edgar Piper, Jr., as the lan guishing idealistic, poet-lover of 18; Miss Nona Lawler. as the woman, and John Berry, as her prosaic, commercial husband. The lie consisted In the de nial that series of poems were ad dressed to the wife on the ground that the poet's attitude toward the wife was one of perfect indifference. This made the husband angry: a free fight ensued; the truth came out. and the husband. much gratified that his wife -was duly appreciated, offered to have the poems printed. Reed Students Perforin.

"The Heir," was given by a set of Reed College players. who had already performed the piece Irreproachably at Its first appearance some months aeo. In substance it is a dramatic exposition of a scientlllc truth relating to heredity. Its interest Is derived mainly from the adroit treat ment by which a really important hu man situation is coupled with a per fectly sound disquisition on heredity. By her gift of ingenuity and taste, Mrs. Torrey has stated a Bclentlflo fact In a play from which the distressing en cumbrances of the scientific treatise are entirely lacking. Robert L. Sabln, Jr, gives an excel lent portrayal of Stuart ttheldon VI, who is the heir of an old Colonial es tate. Charles Larrabee and Matthew Riddle as degenerates furnish a bizarre and striking effect to the piece. Mrs. Torrey plays the part of Mercy Sheldon.
